　　In order to adapt to the new situation that the relationship between supply and demand in China’s real estate market has undergone major changes, recently, many places and departments have issued intensive documents to adjust and optimize real estate policies in a timely manner, which will better meet the rigid and improved housing needs of residents, and will also have a favorable impact on expanding consumption, stimulating investment and stabilizing economic growth.

　　On August 30th, Guangzhou City and Shenzhen City of Guangdong Province successively announced the implementation of the policy of "recognizing houses but not loans". On September 1, Shanghai and Beijing also announced the implementation of this policy.

　　On August 31st, the People’s Bank of China and the State Financial Supervision and Administration jointly issued a notice, which unified the minimum down payment ratio of the first and second sets of commercial personal housing loans to be no less than 20% and 30%. At the same time, reduce the interest rate of the first home loan in stock.

　　Experts pointed out that in recent days, many departments have issued intensive documents, adjusted and optimized real estate policies in a timely manner, and released positive signals to promote the stable and healthy development of the real estate market.

　　The policy plays a "combination boxing" to better meet the rigid and improved housing needs of residents.

　　The policy of "recognizing the house but not the loan" is clear. When households (including borrowers, spouses and minor children) apply for loans to buy commercial housing, if family members do not have a complete set of housing in the local name, banking financial institutions will implement the housing credit policy according to the first set of housing, regardless of whether they have used loans to buy housing.

　　"For families who need to change rooms, in ‘ Admit the house but not the loan ’ Under the policy, houses can be exchanged at a lower down payment ratio and a more favorable loan interest rate, and the preferential period of personal income tax rebate for residents to purchase houses has also been extended. These policies will help reduce the cost of buying houses and release the demand for changing houses. " Pu Zhan, deputy director of the Policy Research Center of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, introduced.

　　Jiang Nan has worked in Guangzhou for more than 10 years. In 2015, just before she got married, she first bought a wedding room in Foshan City, Guangdong Province, and rented it out after simple decoration, while she rented a house in Guangzhou. In the past two years, seeing that the children have reached the age of going to school, the desire of Jiang Nan and his wife to buy a suite in Guangzhou has become stronger and stronger.

　　"I saw more than a dozen sets of second-hand houses, and I was satisfied. Almost all of them cost more than 6 million yuan. Before that suite in Foshan also had a loan, now I want to buy this suite, with a down payment of 40% and a loan interest rate of 4.8%. " Jiang Nan said that according to the new policy of "recognizing the house and not recognizing the loan", the down payment is only 30%, and the down payment is less than 10%, which is more than 600,000 yuan; Moreover, the loan interest rate enjoys 4.2% of the first suite interest rate, and the monthly supply burden can also be reduced a lot.

　　Ms. Huang, a citizen of Shenzhen, also expressed a similar idea: "We have always wanted to change a bigger house and improve our living conditions. However, if it is identified as a second suite, the down payment ratio is high and it is difficult to bear. After the introduction of the New Deal, the pressure is much smaller. "

　　Gao Yuan, president of Beijing Chain Home Research Institute, believes that "recognizing houses but not loans" mainly benefits new citizens and improved groups in Beijing. In terms of new citizens, it is more common that they have no house in Beijing, but they have had a credit record of buying a house in other places. Under the original standard, they have to pay 60% (ordinary house) or 80% (non-ordinary house) down payment for buying a house in Beijing; In terms of improved groups, it is beneficial to "sell one and buy one" to improve the replacement groups. Due to factors such as family structure changes, child care and old-age care, nearly 70% of buyers in the current Beijing residential market belong to improved demand.

　　What is the market reaction after the introduction of policies such as "recognizing houses but not loans"? Lou Chunlei, manager of an active regional store in Chaoyang District, Beijing Chain Home, told reporters that after Beijing announced the policy, we received many customers’ consultation calls one after another. In the first two months, the number of online consultations was generally more than 20, and this weekend it increased to more than 60, and the number of regional listings was also active. "The price of the target room type of our improved customers is mostly between 8 million yuan and 10 million yuan. Before looking at the house, considering that 80% of the down payment for the second suite was hesitant, now the policy has landed, and many customers have chosen to list the property to obtain the first set of qualifications. " Yan Chunlei said.

　　According to the data provided by RealData, the average daily turnover of second-hand houses in Guangzhou and Shenzhen increased by 25% and 70% respectively from August 30 to 31, compared with last week (August 21 to 27), and the number of customers taking care of them also increased rapidly.

　　Not only the policy of "recognizing the house but not the loan", but also the policies of adjusting and optimizing differentiated housing credit and reducing the interest rate of the first home loan in stock will also help to better meet the demand for rigid and improved housing.

　　According to the relevant persons in charge of the People’s Bank of China and the General Administration of Financial Supervision, the key points of the adjustment and optimization of differentiated housing credit policy include two aspects: First, unify the lower limit of the national minimum down payment ratio policy for commercial individual housing loans. No longer distinguish between cities that implement "restricted purchases" and cities that do not implement "restricted purchases", and the lower limit of the minimum down payment ratio of commercial personal housing loans for the first home and the second home is unified to not less than 20% and 30%. The second is to adjust the lower limit of the second set of housing interest rate policy to not less than the loan market quotation rate (LPR) of the corresponding term plus 20 basis points. The lower limit of the first set of housing interest rate policy is still not less than the corresponding period LPR minus 20 basis points. All localities can independently determine the minimum down payment ratio and the lower interest rate limit of the first and second houses within their jurisdiction according to the principle of city-specific policies and the local real estate market situation and regulatory needs.

　　The real estate market as a whole has turned into a buyer’s market where supply exceeds demand.

　　The real estate chain is long and involves a wide range, which can be said to lead the whole body.

　　In the second quarter of this year, affected by the macro-environment, residents’ ability and willingness to buy houses declined, and the recovery of buying houses as a bulk consumption lagged behind, and the growth rate of real estate market turnover slowed down. From January to July, the sales area of commercial housing was 665.63 million square meters, a year-on-year decrease of 6.5%; The newly started housing area was 569.69 million square meters, down by 24.5%.

　　On July 24th, the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee held a meeting and pointed out that it is necessary to effectively prevent and resolve risks in key areas, adapt to the new situation that the supply and demand relationship in China’s real estate market has undergone major changes, adjust and optimize real estate policies in a timely manner, and make good use of the policy toolbox to better meet the rigid and improved housing needs of residents and promote the stable and healthy development of the real estate market.

　　Yu Xiaofen, Dean of China Institute of Housing and Real Estate, Zhejiang University of Technology, analyzed that the relationship between supply and demand in the real estate market has undergone major changes, mainly in three aspects: First, it has shifted from the seller’s market to the buyer’s market. After more than 20 years of large-scale development, the per capita housing construction area of urban residents in China has exceeded 41 square meters in 2022. Due to the negative growth of superimposed population and the middle and late stage of urbanization, the market as a whole has turned into a buyer’s market with oversupply, especially in small and medium-sized cities, where the inventory of commercial housing is large and the cycle of de-melting is long. The second is to shift from an incremental market to a stock-based market. In many cities, the growth rate of stock housing transactions is faster than that of new commercial housing sales, and the turnover of second-hand houses in some cities has exceeded that of new houses. Third, the proportion of existing home sales has steadily increased from auction sales to existing home sales.

　　"Adapting to the new situation that the relationship between supply and demand in China’s real estate market has undergone major changes, the implementation of a series of policies and measures in recent days can not only better meet the rigid and improving needs of residents, but also have great significance for expanding consumption, stimulating investment and stabilizing economic growth." Yan Xiaofen believes.

　　Dong Ximiao, chief researcher of Zhaolian, said that according to relevant calculations, the average decline in the interest rate of the first home loan was about 80 basis points. Take the stock mortgage with a term of 1 million yuan, 25 years and the original interest rate of 5.1% as an example. Assuming that the mortgage interest rate is reduced to 4.3%, the borrower’s repayment expenditure can be saved by more than 5,000 yuan per year, which will help reduce the housing consumption burden and increase the consumption and investment capacity of residents.

　　To promote the stable and healthy development of the real estate market, we need to be patient in many ways.

　　Experts interviewed said that the current timely adjustment and optimization of real estate policies has opened the market expectation window. In the short term, just-needed and improved demand will be concentrated in the market, and the market transaction volume may increase significantly before the end of the year. However, as a whole, the relationship between supply and demand in the real estate market has changed greatly, and it is greatly influenced by the macro environment. To look at the development of the real estate market with a more rational attitude, we must have both confidence and patience.

　　"When the overall development of the market slows down, the positive side will be particularly noticeable. For example, some markets will be more resilient and new business opportunities will emerge." Yu Liang, Chairman of Vanke’s Board of Directors, believes that the urbanization rate in China is about 65% at present, and it is expected to reach 70% in 2030, and the urban population will increase to about 980 million. According to the construction experience, it is conservatively estimated that the newly started real estate area of 1 billion to 1.2 billion square meters in the future is guaranteed.

　　Yu Liang said that according to the experience of London, Tokyo and other cities, the population will continue to concentrate in cities that can create jobs. Even after the market is fully mature, there will still be a large number of urban renewal projects in the central city to enhance the development vitality of traditional areas and meet the needs of job-residence balance. In addition, the construction of affordable rental housing, the renovation of villages in cities, and the construction and operation of real estate agents will also be important business growth areas in the future.

　　"The current policy is already exerting strength. I believe that with the joint efforts of all parties, as the economic operation continues to improve and the expectations for the future gradually stabilize, the market will return to a healthy and reasonable level." Yu Liang said.

　　Yan Xiaofen believes that in the medium and long term, to promote the stable and healthy development of the real estate market, we need to focus on both supply and demand: stabilize the market scale by accelerating the start of urban renewal and urban village transformation; By lowering the mortgage interest rate and expanding the coverage of housing provident fund, we will strive to improve the housing consumption capacity, relax the purchase restriction in big cities or districts where the relationship between housing supply and demand has undergone major changes, and stabilize market demand; By comprehensively promoting the "mortgage transfer" of second-hand houses, reducing transaction deed tax and reasonably reducing real estate agency fees, we will encourage trade-in and promote a virtuous circle of the market; Support high-quality state-owned housing enterprises and high-quality private housing enterprises equally, appropriately relax the restrictions on development conditions and stabilize real estate enterprises.

　　The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development said that we will continue to focus on increasing confidence, preventing risks and promoting transformation to promote the stable and healthy development of the real estate market. Because of the city’s policy and precise policy, we will vigorously support the demand for rigid and improved housing, solidly promote the work of ensuring the people’s livelihood and stability, resolve the risk of corporate capital chain breakage, strive to improve quality, build a good house, rectify the order of the real estate market, and let the people buy houses and rent houses with confidence.

County, District People’s government, the relevant units of the city:

In order to thoroughly implement the important exposition of the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary on safety in production, firmly establish the concept of safe development, strengthen the bottom line thinking and red line consciousness, profoundly learn the painful lessons from the "3 7" Quanzhou, Fujian and "8 29" Linfen, Shanxi, further strengthen the safety management of existing buildings in our city, ensure the safe use of buildings, and earnestly safeguard public safety and public interests, according to the Notice of the General Office of the Provincial Government on Effectively Strengthening the Safety Management of Existing Buildings (Su Zhengban made)

First, fully understand the importance of safety management of existing buildings.

Existing buildings refer to residential buildings, industrial buildings and public buildings such as offices, schools, medical and health institutions, cultural and sports venues, stations, shopping malls, hotels, restaurants, bazaars, pension and welfare institutions, places for religious activities, etc., which involve all walks of life, and have a wide range of property rights. With the rapid development of urbanization, the number of existing buildings has increased year by year, and the structural components, equipment and facilities of existing buildings are gradually aging due to disrepair, which is easy to cause security risks. At the same time, in the process of using existing buildings, the main structure of the building is damaged or the building structure and equipment are used beyond the design load due to the unauthorized demolition and modification of the building structure or unauthorized change of the use and function of the building space by the property owner or user, which leads to frequent safety accidents in building use.

Strengthening the safety management of existing buildings from completion, delivery, use and maintenance to scrapping and dismantling is of great significance to ensuring people’s lives and property safety, maintaining social stability and promoting economic development. The CPC Central Committee and the State Council pay great attention to the safety of existing buildings. In view of the casualties caused by building collapses in various parts of the country in recent years, they have repeatedly stressed the need to effectively strengthen the safety management of existing buildings. All relevant units in counties (functional sectors) and cities should further improve their political positions, unify their ideological understanding, take the modernization of governance system and governance capacity as the guide, and conscientiously perform their duties in accordance with the principle of "territorial management, standardized use, prevention first, combination of prevention and control, and ensuring safety", speed up the construction of existing building safety governance system, strictly control illegal activities in the process of building use, carry out in-depth and sustained investigation of building hidden dangers, and effectively implement the governance of dangerous buildings.

Second, strengthen the construction of existing building safety management system

(a) to further improve the existing building safety system.Counties and districts (functional sectors) should formulate or improve the existing building safety management system according to the actual situation and the relevant policies and regulations of higher authorities. The management objects should cover all kinds of existing buildings such as urban and rural residential buildings, industrial buildings and public buildings, and the management contents should include the use of existing buildings, safety appraisal, renovation and expansion, decoration, termite control, building exterior decoration and curtain wall, maintenance of key facilities and equipment (including fire-fighting facilities, etc.), and emergency treatment.

(two) to further clarify the existing building safety responsibility.The owner of the existing building is the person responsible for the safety of the existing building. Existing buildings owned by the state or the collective, whose management unit is the person responsible for the use of safety; The actual user or manager of an existing building whose owner is unaccounted for and whose ownership is unclear shall bear the responsibility for the safety of the existing building. It is necessary to further consolidate the main responsibility for the use of existing buildings, urge those responsible for the use of existing buildings to abide by the provisions of relevant laws and regulations on building safety management, and standardize the constructionBuilding use behavior, regular safety inspection and maintenance of buildings, and timely eliminate potential safety hazards.

(three) to further clarify the existing building safety supervision responsibilities.Departments in charge of various industries should conscientiously perform their duties of production safety in accordance with the requirements of "three management and three necessities", and departments of housing construction, natural resources, finance, public security, emergency, fire protection, market supervision, urban management, etc. should do a good job in existing building safety management according to the division of responsibilities; Education, health, cultural tourism, sports, transportation, commerce, civil affairs, religious affairs and other departments should, according to their respective functions and duties, urge those responsible for the safe use of public buildings such as schools, medical and health institutions, cultural and sports venues, scenic spots, stations, shopping malls, hotels, restaurants, bazaars, pension and welfare institutions, religious activities places, etc. to carry out construction safety inspection and maintenance, and eliminate potential safety hazards.

(four) the establishment of existing building archives management system.It is necessary to attach great importance to the information collection of housing safety archives, fully grasp the information of dangerous housing safety, and establish a daily management ledger of housing safety to make the process management clear, continuous and complete, and ensure that the ledger is true and reliable; Actively rely on provincial and municipal information statistical platforms and systems for building safety investigation and rectification, give full play to the application of information technology in building safety management, improve existing building safety management files, and realize dynamic management.

(E) Building a grid management system for building safety.. All counties and districts (functional sectors) should, in accordance with the work requirements of "horizontal to the edge and vertical to the end", pay attention to giving full play to the role of towns (streets) and property service enterprises, promote the shift of management focus, and make overall plans to establish a grid management system for existing building safety in the region, so as to form a good situation in which governments at all levels, administrative departments, industry management departments and grass-roots organizations work together to form a full coverage of management scope without blind spots. Through the grid management system, the management areas should be refined step by step, and all kinds of situations that affect the safety of building use should be clearly classified by menu, so as to compact the responsibility of territorial safety management, ensure that each area has special personnel to inspect and take charge of, and find and deal with existing building safety problems in time.

Three, strengthen the supervision and management of existing building renovation and decoration.

(a) to further clarify the existing building renovation and expansion, decoration engineering capital construction procedures management requirements.Construction renovation and decoration projects with an investment of more than 300,000 yuan or a construction area of more than 300 square meters must apply for construction permits in accordance with the law, and carry out legal procedures for construction drawing review, quality and safety supervision, and completion acceptance and filing; For those who do not reach the scale of applying for construction permits and carry out building renovation and decoration projects, counties and districts (functional sectors) should further clarify the implementation of regulatory responsibilities, refine the division of labor, and strengthen process management in accordance with the requirements of territorial management principles to ensure that no behaviors that endanger the building structure occur. Urban management, housing construction, resource planning and other departments should decentralize the power of law enforcement, shift their focus, take the initiative, strengthen supervision, and strictly investigate and deal with illegal construction behaviors that endanger the safety of building structures. Villages and towns (streets), communities and property management institutions should strengthen inspections, find and stop illegal construction in time, and report to the local government platform and competent authorities in accordance with regulations. Existing building renovation and decoration projects need structural transformation or may affect structural safety, and construction can only be started after the original design unit or the design unit with the same qualification has issued design documents and passed the drawing review. Severely crack down on illegal construction, illegal transformation, unauthorized change of building purposes, etc., and give administrative punishment and credit joint punishment to those responsible for illegal use of safety according to law.

For the transformation of existing buildings into crowded places, before going through the business or opening formalities, the operator should entrust an appraisal (testing) institution to issue a building safety assessment opinion or report, which will be kept for future reference as proof of the legal use of the place, and market supervision, towns (streets), communities and other relevant departments will strengthen supervision afterwards.

(two) the establishment of interior decoration renovation project fire design review and acceptance permit pre safety evaluation system.Renovation of existing buildings. For indoor renovation projects with an investment of more than 300,000 yuan or a construction area of more than 300 square meters, the renovation subject shall fully perform the current legal procedures for project construction before applying for fire control acceptance.On the basis of, complete the appraisal (detection) of building structural safety. Without the safety appraisal (test) report, the fire department will not accept it. Below the scale, refer to the implementation.

Four, increase the investigation of existing building safety hazards.

(a) to carry out the safety investigation of existing buildings in a timely manner. Relevant units of counties (functional sectors) and cities should timely organize the safety investigation of existing buildings within their jurisdiction in combination with the investigation and rectification work of dangerous buildings carried out in recent years, and focus on checking whether the existing buildings have exceeded the design service life, whether there is overload use, unauthorized changes in building use and use functions, and whether there are illegal acts such as renovation and expansion, decoration, etc. Whether there are abnormal conditions such as settlement, cracks, deformation, damage and corrosion of the foundation or main structural members, whether there are peeling of the exterior wall veneer, cracking and damage of the thermal insulation layer of the exterior wall of the building, loosening of the interior and exterior decorative members of the building, whether there are situations such as failure to configure and set the fire-fighting facilities according to the standard or failure to keep them intact and effective, etc., and grasp the state of complete damage of the building, and timely implement the governance responsibilities and remediation measures for the potential safety hazards found in the investigation.

(two) to strengthen the construction safety inspection under certain conditions. We should attach great importance to the safety of existing buildings under severe weather conditions such as typhoon, lightning, rain and snow, and those responsible for the safety of existing buildings should conscientiously do a good job in self-inspection of the safety of existing buildings. For buildings with major security risks, personnel should be evacuated in time to avoid casualties caused by building collapse.

(3) Accelerate the establishment of a normalization mechanism for the investigation of potential safety hazards in existing buildings. All counties and districts (functional sectors) should, in combination with the investigation work, encourage the establishment of "responsible person self-inspection, grassroots grid investigation, departmental joint investigation, third-party professional inspection and government supervision" by purchasing public services and setting up professional inspection teams. Normalized safety hazard investigation mechanism,The existing building safety inspection, regular inspection of dangerous buildings and special inspection of existing building safety under certain conditions are organically combined to achieve early prevention, early detection and early elimination of potential safety hazards.

For existing buildings that have reached the designed service life, foundation or structural components are abnormal or damaged and still need to be used, as well as crowded places such as schools, medical and health institutions, cultural and sports venues, scenic spots, stations, shopping malls, hotels, restaurants, bazaars, pension and welfare institutions, public places of entertainment and religious activities, it is necessary to actively implement regular building safety inspection (identification or testing) and maintenance systems.

Five, do a solid job in the supervision and resolution of dangerous buildings.

(a) standardize the construction safety appraisal work. Housing construction departments at all levels should set up housing safety appraisal institutions, equipped with corresponding technical personnel and necessary instruments and equipment, strengthen the construction of appraisal teams, and ensure the smooth development of housing safety management. City housing safety appraisal management center is responsible for the business guidance of the city’s housing safety appraisal work, and is responsible for the identification of dangerous houses, and the implementation of the "Identification Standard for Dangerous Houses" (JGJ125). Housing safety appraisal is an important content and means of housing safety management. Appraisal institutions should follow the principles of fairness in appraisal procedures, fairness in entities and neutrality and impartiality in appraisal subjects to ensure objectivity, accuracy and authenticity of appraisal conclusions.

(2) Strengthen the classified supervision of dangerous buildings. Counties and districts (functional plates) shall assign special personnel to be responsible for tracking and supervising the dangerous buildings that have been investigated or identified before they are solved. For dangerous buildings observed and used, a supervision plan should be formulated to implement the responsible person; To deal with the dangerous buildings used, we should take effective measures to solve the danger in time, implement the main body of solving the danger, and eliminate hidden dangers in time; For dangerous buildings that are temporarily inconvenient to dismantle and do not endanger adjacent buildings and affect the safety of others, but need to be stopped, personnel should be evacuated in time, obvious warning signs should be set up, and effective sealing measures should be taken to prevent secondary disasters; For the need for overall demolition, it is necessary to strengthen the capacity building of emergency rescue and emergency support in accordance with the requirements of Lianyungang City Construction Safety Emergency Plan.

(3) Accelerate the renovation of dangerous buildings. Counties and districts (functional sectors) should strengthen the management and supervision of dangerous buildings within their jurisdiction, urge those responsible for the use of existing buildings to take the initiative to take responsibility for solving the crisis, implement measures to solve the crisis, and encourage the implementation of the social measures of "insurance+service". For a piece of housing that exceeds the designed service life or is identified as a dangerous house, priority may be given to urban renewal or shantytown renovation. The management of dangerous houses requires the use of special residential maintenance funds, and the management department of special residential maintenance funds should provide convenience within the scope of management regulations; Encourage the establishment of crisis relief funds and support property owners to reinforce and repair the crisis; If conditions permit, we can take the form of government subsidies and property owners sharing funds to rebuild or appropriately expand dangerous houses in situ, so as to solve the problems of insufficient funds for housing safety appraisal and renovation.

Six, strengthen the publicity and guidance of existing building safety management.

Counties and districts (functional sectors) should strengthen publicity and guidance, improve the main responsibility consciousness and public safety consciousness of property owners, users and managers, consciously abide by the laws and regulations on building safety management, standardize the use of buildings, reduce behaviors that affect and undermine the safety of building use, and effectively fulfill the obligations of building maintenance; It is necessary to give full play to the supervisory role of public opinion and the public, urge property owners, users and management service units, strengthen the safety management of building use, promptly discourage improper use, and ensure the safe and normal use of buildings.

From 1984 to 1986, China experienced a round of Japanese automobile import peak, during which three types of Japanese off-road vehicles were imported; Toyota Land Cruiser LC60, Nissan Toure and Mitsubishi Pajero. Among the three off-road vehicles, Mitsubishi Pajero has a higher exposure, which is the first generation product of Mitsubishi Pajero.

From 1953 to 1973, Mitsubishi has been manufacturing Jeep CJ3 off-road vehicle (introducing production license). From the production of this vehicle, Mitsubishi Motors has accumulated experience and technology, and has the technical strength to develop off-road vehicles with better performance. The first prototype of a brand-new off-road vehicle was launched in 1973, and the second prototype was launched in 1978. In 1982, the first generation Pajero came out. At first, there were only three-door models with short wheelbase. In 1983, Mitsubishi introduced its five-door model with long wheelbase, and the model sold in the United States was called Montero.

Mitsubishi Pajero has got rid of the commercial compartment design of the previous off-road vehicle, and the comfort of the compartment has improved a lot, so it has completely changed from the previous off-road vehicle in function, and some private SUVs taste. The chassis design is also brand-new, giving up the leaf spring and front hard axle suspension design of Jeep CJ3, and using the front suspension design of double wishbone plus torsion bar and anti-roll bar, which is not only suitable for high-intensity off-road but also for highway high-speed driving.

In terms of power, there are three (2.0, 2.0T and 2.6) four-cylinder gasoline engines and three (2.3, 2.3 turbocharged and 2.5 turbocharged) four-cylinder diesel engines. In 1987, Mitsubishi launched a flagship model of Pajero with more luxurious configuration. In 1988, its power was upgraded to a 104 kW 3.0-liter V6 gasoline engine (6G72), which became From 1982 to 1990, Mitsubishi Motors Corporation manufactured 300,000 first-generation Pajeros. Because of Pajero’s success, Mercedes-Benz was invited to talk about cooperation. At that time, Mercedes-Benz did not have an SUV with high taste.

Mitsubishi Pajero, imported from China in 1980s, is widely used in the western region. It is much better than GAZ 69 and BJ212 used in the western region before, and it has more face when going out for business. Compared with the Toyota Land Cruiser introduced at the same time, it is not fast and comfortable. However, after several years of use in the western region, it showed that its reliability and durability were not as good as that of Toyota Cruiser (at that time, there were few roads in the western region and the road conditions were very poor. In Tibet, the failure rate increased obviously after 80,000 kilometers in Pajero, but there was no problem when the land cruiser was 120,000 kilometers). After 1990s, the field in western China was dominated by Toyota Land Cruisers.

Compared with the indiscriminate bombing of Hollywood imported films in the mainland film market, sporadic Chinese films that occasionally "go out" have not received much attention in North America, which directly leads to the unsatisfactory or even poor box office performance of most films. However, since 2010, the pace of Chinese films going abroad has obviously accelerated, and the number of films appearing in North American cinemas has increased year by year, reaching a record 22 this year. However, it is worth noting that quantitative change has not contributed to qualitative change, and the status of Chinese films in North America has not been improved much, and their performance has not improved much — — In 2013, Chinese export films were still "looking for feelings". (Editor’s Note: Tai Chi Xia and shanghai calling are jointly produced by China and the United States; The box office list data in this foreign language does not take inflation into account)

Among them, movies with good box office in China, such as "Beijing meets Seattle" and "Search", have suffered from waterloo in the United States. It is decided that the North American box office performance of "Beijing meets Seattle" of the American Empire State Building is only 0.008% of the domestic box office; "Big shot" is the worst result of maintaining the North American box office of Chinese films for many years. "Beijing meets Seattle" and "Search" are all hard to shake their position … …

Beijing meets Seattle’s North American box office? You have to jump from the Empire State Building to "find the feeling"

Although the film shows the American image of a paradise on earth, the height of the Empire State Building can’t prevent the film from becoming a bottomless black hole at the North American box office. Compared with the film’s 500 million yuan in China, its box office in the North American market is like a "free fall" from the Empire State Building. "Beijing Meets Seattle" was released in North American cinemas on November 8th. By the time the film went offline on the 21st, it only earned $6,579, which set a new record for the North American distributor Huashi Company to release domestic films in North America.

North American box office of Chinese export films

"Beijing meets Seattle" is the most unsuccessful domestic film that Chinese lion introduced into the North American market. Among the 29 films that China Lion Company introduced into the North American market, this film is the only one with a box office not exceeding 10,000. In contrast, If You Are the One 2 and 1942 were relatively gratifying at the box office in North America through China Lion. The former reached $426,894, while the latter also recorded $312,954.

Although most of the location of Beijing meets Seattle was shot in Seattle, USA; Although most American media spoke highly of "Beijing meets Seattle", they thought that "it is different from common romantic comedies and restores the real life of American immigrants". Although director Xue Xiaolu personally attended the film’s premiere in Los Angeles … … But judging from the box office, the American audience didn’t care about the kindness of friends in China. The only cinema in Seattle that showed the film hastily took it off the production line after a week … …

The film’s three-day premiere in North America was $3,430, with an average box office income of 1,143 yuan, ranking 80 th in the box office list of 109 films released in North America during the same period. Its first week opened at the box office (11.8— — 11.14) was only $5,371, and the average box office income of a single museum was $1,790, and the box office ranking slipped to 83rd place. It seems that American cinema companies are not very interested in such "small fresh" romantic films as "Beijing meets Seattle", which were only shown in three cinemas in Seattle, Los Angeles and new york in the early stage. To make matters worse, on November 15th, the film was released in Seattle and new york cinemas … … The box office of a cinema in Los Angeles alone was unsustainable after the 15th. 15th — — On the 17th, the film’s three-day box office revenue was only $924; During the period from 15th to 21st, the revenue of all cinemas and single libraries in this film was $1,208 … …

The North American box office achievement of Finding Mr.Right … …

Up to now, in the list of 656 movies with box office income released in North America in the past year, Beijing Meets Seattle ranks 574th at the box office. Since 1980, the United States has introduced 1579 foreign language films. In this box office list of foreign language films in North America, "Beijing meets Seattle" is located at 1411. On December 8, 2000, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the best Oscar foreign language film jointly produced by China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the United States, appeared in North America. The film finally fought in the cinema for nearly seven months and ended with a record $128 million. So far, it still holds the title of the highest-selling foreign language film in North America — — It can be said that this is the most important "first" for Chinese films in Hollywood. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is far behind Beautiful Life with a box office of 128 million dollars. The latter grossed nearly $57.6 million, less than half of the former. The hero directed by Zhang Yimou followed closely, with a box office score of $53.71 million ranking third in the list of foreign language films in North America.

Nothing is worse, only the worst, and "Big shot" is not without feeling.

Of course, "Beijing meets Seattle" is not the most unsuccessful Chinese film released in North America. Chen Kaige’s "Search" and Xiaogang Feng’s "Big Shot" have even worse box office results in North American cinemas. Search, which was delayed for 10 months, earned $1,067 at the box office in North America this year, almost breaking the embarrassing record of the lowest box office in North America for Chinese films held by Big Shot — — 820 dollars.

Up to now, a total of 656 new films have entered the North American cinema this year. Including Private Custom, which just appeared on the 20th, the number of Chinese films has reached 22, which is also higher than last year (20), creating a new high. In terms of box office revenue, the total box office of all new films was 9.613 billion US dollars, of which 7,639,800 were Chinese films. Although it rose by more than 60% compared with last year in terms of books, we should know that only "The Grand Master" contributed 6.595 million. Apart from The Master, which supports the facade, only four films, Drug War, Private Order (which is being released and the box office will increase), Destiny and Tai Chi Xia, barely passed the box office line of 100,000.

On the other hand, last year, as many as 10 films crossed the threshold of 100,000, mainly distributed in the range of 200,000-300,000, and the relatively average performance was much better than the generally bleak scene of Chinese films this year.

Analysis of Chinese film distributors: although Chinese lions are single-minded, their output is limited

Huashi is a "foreign monk" who devotes himself to making Chinese films distributed in North America. Founded in October 2010, Huashi has successively released two Xiaogang Feng masterpieces, Tangshan Earthquake and If You Are the One 2. In particular, the latter finally earned nearly 430,000 US dollars, which still holds the highest box office record for Huashi’s films.

In 2011-2012, Huashi indirectly released 21 Chinese films in two years, including many romantic films, such as Global Love, Love, love in the buff and Girlfriend • Boyfriend, etc., and the distribution of schedules is relatively even, which can be regarded as finding the rhythm of distribution, and also letting North American audiences develop corresponding viewing habits. However, due to the CEO milt &bull before February this year; Barlow’s resignation led to the reorganization of the company’s management. Until mid-June, China Lion released its first work "To Youth" in 2013, and the audience’s enthusiasm was not high. In the end, it only achieved a single performance of less than $4,000. However, the box office of the following two "Tiny Times" was significantly higher, and the revenue of a single museum exceeded $7,000.

Throughout the past three years, the scale of Huashi’s films has obviously decreased, from the average number of 25 cinemas in 2011 to single digits this year, and the performance of a single museum has also declined. It seems that it will take time to recover. When asked about the challenges faced by the company, Robert &bull, vice president of China Lion North America; Lundberg admitted to the Tencent reporter that "piracy is a big blow and a big problem". In addition, compared with the first two local teams who are willing to spend money on advertising, Chinese lions are also quite restrained in the cost of publicity. In addition to paying for outdoor advertisements for individual films [such as "1942"], they still focus on low-cost social platform promotion and grassroots word-of-mouth marketing.

Of course, talking about the box office can’t just look at the overall performance. When measuring the box office results, North American publishers also value the single-store income (the average box office of each theater) because it can more objectively reflect the performance of the film. For example, the box office champion "The Grandmaster", due to the large-scale release of the film in 804 theaters in the United States, its single-room income ($8,202.7) is not as good as the small-scale release of the well-known masterpiece "Destiny" ($16,853.2) — — The latter was only shown in six cinemas for a short time (recently, IFC Cinema in new york began to show the film at the request of the audience). Looking at the 22 Chinese films this year, as many as 14 films earned less than $5,000 in a single library, while only 6 films did not cross the line last year.

In the past four years, Chinese films have been stumbling forward in North America. From 6 movies in 2010 to 1.093 million, 16 movies in 2011 to 3.072 million, 20 movies in 2012 to 7.64 million this year, although the number has been increasing, the pattern of limited influence, excessive dependence on individual movies and large box office fluctuations has not changed. (Editor’s Note: snow flower and the secret fan is usually counted as an English film, so it is not included in the following table)

Chinese films are struggling.

How much did the North American film market leave for China?

In the entire North American film market, American films account for 92%, European films account for 6%, and only the remaining 2% is reserved for other countries, including India, South Korea and Japan. Many people in the industry believe that even if the 2% market share is completely won, it will not have much effective effect on the development space of China films. Nowadays, Japan and South Korea have gradually lost their local film markets, and all of them have been "occupied" by Hollywood films. China’s film market is also facing the same problem. Therefore, in the face of the dilemma of the loss of the local market, the capital behind the film is even more reluctant to take risks.

Nowadays, a large amount of hot money has poured into the mainland market, which makes more film practitioners turn their attention from export to domestic sales. Some production companies have figured that instead of spending a lot of money to invest overseas, it is better to quickly dig for gold in the domestic market.

Luo Sidian, an expert on film studies in China, once said that such a problem is a structural obstacle for all non-English films to enter the American film market. Because in the eyes of American audiences, non-English movies are "art movies", and "art movies" can only be released in the category of art theaters.

The publisher team has expanded, but it is still a game for a few people.

In North America, cinema distribution itself is a highly competitive and difficult business, while Chinese films are obviously not mainstream films, and the market space is very narrow, so the number of "players" that can be accommodated is also limited. Among them, there are companies like China lion and WellGo that are struggling to survive; There is also the unfortunate Indomina Media who was dragged down after several films were released; The remaining filmmakers with deep pockets only occasionally taste the "freshness" of Chinese films — — In the past four years, although the number of Chinese film distributors in North America has expanded slightly, from the initial five or six to about ten now, its niche market is still an indisputable fact.

The impact of "beating" will eventually change, and urban love is difficult to "try and make mistakes"

What kind of Chinese films sell well in North America? I’m afraid the film, the creator and the media people can’t give a standard answer. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero and other films have set box office records for more than ten years, but Chinese films are still at the level of "beating" a few mainstream audiences in North America. However, it’s a bit reluctant to let the series of Ip Man and various films around key words such as "Tai Chi" and "Kung Fu" prop up the whole situation. Therefore, it is a gratifying progress to see that the Chinese lion pays attention to developing the market for Chinese students and new immigrants, and tries to introduce various urban youth romance films from mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Although the effect is still mixed, no matter how "wrong" it is, you can finally try "right" only if you keep trying.

Schedule? Piracy? It is king to choose the right film and publicize it in place.

Speaking of the reasons for the bleak box office in North America in Chinese films, it is often simply and rudely attributed to the publisher’s failure to choose the right screening date, which made piracy take advantage of the loopholes and lost the box office. However, this year’s sharp contrast between The Master and The Dragon King, the capital of Di Renjie, makes this excuse really untenable: The release date of The Master in North America is seven and a half months later than that in the Mainland, while Di Renjie released by AMC appeared in North America simultaneously with the Mainland; On the one hand, there are theme types with broad market potential, coupled with precise marketing with full firepower, on the other hand, there are stories that are too foreign and appear quietly. In the end, the vastly different box office performances of both sides speak for themselves.

Analysis of Chinese Film Distributors: Varnstam has deep pockets and hard skills.

This year’s 22 Chinese films are distributed by 12 different companies, and they can also be roughly divided into several echelons. First of all, Varnstam, a well-known independent publisher in Hollywood, has always been famous for his "winning a good film", "generous publicity expenses" and "tough public relations skills", and is regarded as the leader in the industry. This time, the release of "The Grand Master", Varnstam not only let director Wong Kar-wai and starring Zhang Ziyi go to all parts of the United States for publicity, but also marked "Martin • Scorsese strongly recommended the localization label, and invited him to attend the grand premiere of the film in new york. In addition, the group went to the San Diego Comic-Con, and of course, the special screening for Oscar held in Los Angeles earned enough attention.

At the same time, Varnstam also cooperated with The New York Times, LA Times and other major media and professional magazines in all kinds of film reviews, advertisements and public relations manuscripts, and created wonderful trailers for North American audiences. Both online and offline, the publicity work was done quite well. On the day of the film’s release in Los Angeles, the author went to watch the movie at the first time and found that most of the audience were Americans. The cinema I went to, which is located in the west of Los Angeles and adjacent to Beverly Hills, rarely showed Chinese movies before because of its superior geographical position. Presumably, only such a strong distributor as Varnstam can seize a place from it.

Even a rough calculation shows that the publication cost of "The Grand Master" is definitely more than one million dollars (the "admission fee" paid to the cinema alone is 8-1,000 dollars/home, and more than 800 cinemas have counted nearly 800,000), but I just don’t know whether the box office of less than 7 million in the end can make Varnstam return to the book. But Varnstam doesn’t seem to care — — It is said that Harvey, the boss of the company, took the film mainly to "please" Megan &bull, the owner of Annapurna Pictures, the nominal publisher of the film; Ellison — — Larry &bull, the founder and CEO of Oracle Bone Inscriptions; Ellison’s daughter is a well-known local tyrant in Hollywood, and she has invested in masterpieces such as The Master, Hunting Bin Laden and american hustle. As an investment and production company, Annapurna Pictures didn’t publicize its resources and experience, but Varnstam’s joining just sold his personal feelings in exchange for further cooperation between the two companies in the future. Therefore, regardless of the film’s profit and loss geometry, Varnstam will bear it.

Medium players have their own main characters.

Secondly, it is a medium-sized independent publisher with a good reputation in North Varnstam, including’s newly established sub-brands, such as Radius-TWC, VarianceFilms, Kino Lorber, First Run and Magnolia (CJ Entertainment, a Korean company, has only released a Chinese-language film of Breaking Up Contract co-produced by China and South Korea, so it is not included). Except for Variance Films, which has a lot of experience in publishing Chinese films, the others have released one occasionally every two or three years, which can be said to be in the stage of cautiously testing the water, but almost every one has its own main genre.

For example, this year brought Keanu • Radius-TWC, the debut film of Tai Chi Xia directed by Reeves, released its last Chinese film at the end of last year, and it seems that it is still conservatively following the traditional blockbuster themes of Chinese films such as "action" and "martial arts". Magnolia’s last film was Warlords in 2010. After three years, it chose the fantasy film The Legend of the White Snake, and still promoted Jet Li, which is quite appealing in North America. Although these companies are a long way behind Vivern Stein in the publicity strength, the number of cinemas is only single digits, and the number of cinemas is only around 30, but due to better control on the scale, almost all of their films released this year have earned more than or close to $5,000. Of course, the performance of Tai Chi Xia is really disappointing — — Because of its global and prestige background, Radius was able to spread in more than 100 theaters in the United States, but as a result, the box office of a single museum was reduced to a pitiful $910, which really lost a lot of money.

In the second echelon, Variance Films should be regarded as a special case. Since 2011, the company has issued Ip Man 2 and Jingwu Fengyun • Zhen Chen, New Shaolin Temple, Revolution of 1911, Let Bullets Fly, Tai Chi 1: Starting from scratch and this year’s Drug War are seven action-oriented films, and their box office results are above average. However, after investigation by the author, it is found that the distribution rights of these films are actually in the hands of another company, WellGo USA, which is good at the distribution of DVDs, VOD and other media platforms. For example, many Chinese films seen by North American audiences on Netflix and other video sites are distributed through WellGo. However, in terms of cinema distribution, WellGo has no advantage, which can be seen from its single-room revenue struggling on the qualified line: Four films released by WellGo this year, Love on the Rooftop, Ip Man: The Last World War, Tai Chi 2: The Rise of Heroes and guillotines, all rank in the middle and lower reaches of the list in terms of box office and single-room revenue.

Therefore, in many cases, WellGo will choose to hire more powerful Variance Films to be responsible for cinema distribution, while focusing on other platforms. Thus, the publishers of Taiji series and Ip Man series jumped back to WellGo from Variance. In fact, the same company was behind it, but the people who came forward were different. Besides Chinese films, WellGo will also release Korean films. In view of the different performances of Chinese and Korean films in North America, WellGo CEO Anne • In an exclusive interview with Tencent reporters, Walker bluntly said, "Chinese people have a poor habit of watching movies."

Analysis of Chinese film publishers: Wanda’s acquisition of AMC has hit a wall.

Finally, AMC cinema is also worth mentioning. Since it was acquired by Wanda Group in May last year, AMC, as the second largest cinema group in the United States, began to try to make film distribution across borders. This year, it released "It’ s too embarrassing for people to stop" and "Di Renjie • Three films: The Dragon King, the God Capital, and the Chinese Zodiac.

Among them, the first two films were screened in its 35 better cinemas, while the last film was spread to 102 cinemas in the United States. However, due to the unclear audience positioning and lack of publicity and promotion, the box office of the three films is not ideal, especially "Zodiac" by Jackie Chan, although it is a good selling theme of action comedy, only earned a mere $100,000 at the box office, and the income of a single museum was only $970.

Closing statement:

Unlike the mainland film market, which has entered a period of rapid and vigorous development, the journey of Chinese films in Hollywood is still in a difficult initial stage. In 2014, a series of works, including Detective, Demon Journey to the West, Magic Police and Frozen, will appear on the other side of the ocean one after another. Although the final box office performance will probably not improve, it will promote the progress of Chinese films in North America again. Chinese export films still have a long way to go. ……

From the perspective of game theory and information economics, involution and lying flat are two sides of the same problem.

First, from eating Chili peppers

So that’s it | How many peppers are you going to eat? The article "Analysis from the Perspective of Nobel Prize Winners in Economics" (2023-12-04, Surging Business School) tells a story: Zhang San, a new classmate in the class, is bullying the weak and afraid of the hard. Zhang San, who just arrived, doesn’t understand the character of his classmates, but he knows that people’s behavior will expose their personality traits. In particular, Zhang San believes that people who eat Chili peppers usually tend to be tough. The next morning, you and Li Si, who usually don’t eat Chili, eat noodles together, and there is a bowl of chopped millet spicy on the table. It’s a coincidence that Zhang Sany, who is bullying and afraid of bullying, is sitting opposite you two. At this time, both you and Li Si need to make a choice: Do you want to add Xiaomi spicy to your bowl of noodles? How much more?

At that time, the thought experiment we did was: it is meaningless to pretend to be tough and add millet spicy to your bowl because Li Si around you will put more peppers than usual in order to send a strong signal to Zhang San until the amount of peppers makes you unbearable. In this way, it is meaningless for you to eat spicy food. So, the final result-Li Si ate "too much" pepper, and you chose not to eat it.

The reason for this result is that there is a typical information asymmetry problem here. Both you and Li Si know their own personality traits, but for Zhang San, this is his information blind spot. Therefore, eating Chili peppers is not only a consumption behavior that increases utility, but also a signal sending mechanism to release his personality traits to Zhang San, who is at an information disadvantage.

If Wang Wu, a classmate who had breakfast with you this morning, usually eats a little pepper, so he is more spicy than you, then Li Si will have to put more peppers.

If a group of classmates like Li Si who are usually addicted to spicy food come at this time, and everyone has learned that Zhang San’s habit is to stop bullying others after finding someone to bully. It is conceivable that there may be a fierce competition about eating spicy food between Li Si and other students who are fond of spicy food. These always spicy people will also secretly scold in their hearts: "It’s too curly."

If the rice spicy on the dining table is replaced by the less spicy Hangzhou pepper, then Li Si may be forced to eat more peppers. So we can say that they "rolled up" even more in the dimension of the amount of peppers they ate.

If there is an involution, there must be a flat one. At this time, you and those students who can’t eat spicy food will definitely choose to stay out of it, while leisurely eating breakfast with the same taste as usual, while watching those students who can eat spicy food "roll" into a ball. You are the so-called "flat" people.

If we first regard Chili as a degree or diploma, and then regard the diploma as a signal that job seekers send to their employers about their own abilities in the labor market, just like spence, the Nobel Prize winner, it is not difficult to understand why the current education field with strong exam-oriented color is involved in all kinds of jaw-dropping strange phenomena.

Second, where did the "volume" come from?

What people usually call involution refers to a special competitive state. The above logic about signaling is not enough to fully explain the involution. In other words, information asymmetry does not constitute a sufficient condition for "involution". In fact, it does not constitute a necessary condition.

So, what is the root of involution?

The root of involution lies in three interrelated basic characteristics of the competitive pattern: first, resources are highly scarce; Second, the track is single; Third, the system is closed.

Look at the scarcity of resources first.In human society, scarcity and competition are synonymous. The higher the scarcity of a resource, the higher its market value, and the fiercer the competition around it. Conversely, the fierce competition in a certain field must mean that there are very scarce resources in this field.

If Zhang San’s so-called "bullying the weak and being afraid of the hard" is actually harmless, but it is only manifested in the size of Zhang San’s voice in daily life, then people like Li Si will lose more by eating too much Chili, so the "involution" around eating Chili will disappear.

Look at the single track.The essence of single track is that the competition around scarce resources has a single dimension. For example, in the above example, an important assumption is potentially implied: the only way to send a signal to Zhang San is to eat Chili peppers. If there are other channels to send signals, such as the size of biceps brachii, the strength of organizational leadership, the atmosphere during the debate, the style of playing cards and chess, the amount of alcohol, the amount of food, etc., then the competition in the dimension of eating peppers will tend to ease.

The above-mentioned resources are highly scarce and the competition pattern of the track is single, which is often accompanied by another remarkable feature: the system is closed. In fact, the reason why it is called "inner" volume is that the system is closed.

The English for "inner volume" is involve. Directly observing the prefix and root of this word, it is easy to remind us of an old saying: "Dojo is made in the snail shell." The prefix in- of Involve means inward, while the root volv stands for "turning and rolling".

Conversely, if it is an open system, the competition between different individuals will naturally not turn inward, but develop outward. The corresponding English is evolve. Its root is the same as involve, except that the prefix is changed to "e-" which means "outward" or "external". The word means "evolution". It is not difficult to understand that on the blue planet where we live, the evolution of organisms presents increasingly complex and diverse characteristics, and the root cause lies in the fact that the biological system is an open competitive system.

3. Roll inward or outward?

The "14th Five-Year Plan" clearly regards "domestic and international double circulation promoting each other" as the basic feature of the new development pattern, which actually reflects the importance of openness to the economic system. Economic system is a typical competitive system.

Traditional farming civilization, as Mr. Fei Xiaotong said, the whole society is divided into small communities. These small communities are formed on the basis of blood and geography, and the relationship between them is isolated and separated. The traditional society based on this closed small community has not surprisingly caused fierce involution, and the whole society has been trapped in the Malthusian trap for thousands of years. Once the economy turned from closed to open, in just a few decades, China’s economic structure and development level have undergone earth-shaking changes.

A study just completed by our research team is also related to this.

Since the reform and opening up, the traffic conditions in the Yangtze River Delta region have been constantly improving, and the traffic from central cities to Shanghai has naturally become more and more convenient.

An easy-to-ignore problem is that this improvement does not naturally mean good for the cities around Shanghai. The reason is intuitive: the transportation to a megacity like Shanghai is more convenient, which not only facilitates the gathering of various resources locally, but also provides convenience for megacities to siphon local resources and economic opportunities. In the latter case, it is often said that megacities have a "siphon effect" on surrounding cities. The former situation corresponds to the positive "radiation" effect of megacities on the surrounding areas, or plays a "leading role".

Our research finds that for the central cities around Shanghai in the Yangtze River Delta region, the improvement of traffic convenience may indeed produce both favorable radiation and unfavorable siphon for the development of these cities. Specifically, before China joined the WTO, the "siphon" effect that Shanghai was unfavorable to the surrounding cities played a slight leading role; After China’s entry into WTO, Shanghai’s positive "radiation" effect on surrounding cities has become very significant.

The law revealed by this study shows that opening to the outside world, a major strategy to make China’s economy break away from the involution track and develop towards a more complex, diverse and advanced economic structure, not only makes China’s economy as a whole gain considerable benefits by participating in the international cycle, but also makes our domestic cycle more efficient.

Due to the impact of the epidemic, today’s cross-border e-commerce has become more and more difficult. However, compared with the involution of domestic e-commerce, cross-border e-commerce is still relatively easy to do. As a result, it has also attracted a large number of people to join the cross-border e-commerce industry. However, there are so many cross-border platforms. How to choose as a small white who has just entered the cross-border business? Today, I have sorted out several mainstream cross-border platforms for you to refer to and compare.

No matter which platform you choose, it is very important to choose products, because it accounts for 60% of the whole cross-border business.

Amazon

One of the earliest cross-border platforms, it is also the first choice for many businesses to go to sea. It helps domestic businesses to seize the new opportunities of cross-border e-commerce, develop export business, expand the global market and build international brands. Moreover, the current Amazon has a fairly complete logistics and warehousing system, allowing businesses to concentrate on operating stores without worries.

But for other cross-border platforms, Amazon’s rules are relatively strict, and businesses need to operate in strict accordance with Amazon’s rules.

Advantages:

(1) large flow,Hundreds of millions of people visit the Amazon market every month, which can bring great exposure to goods.

② Perfect service:Amazon has a first-class service system, and its own FBA logistics storage system can handle inventory, packaging, shipping and transportation for merchants, so that you can concentrate on Amazon store operation.

③ It covers a wide range, with 17 sites at present.

Disadvantages:

① Expensive: It is more expensive to settle in FBA warehouse; Moreover, it must also ensure that the stored goods can be sold. If they cannot be sold, you will face the status quo of losing money.

② Great competition: Large flow means great competition. There are a lot of stores in Amazon that sell similar products to you. They may be the source of businesses, and they will sell at lower prices because of their own production. This makes you have to use price war to get higher traffic, but your own profits will be reduced.

Shopee is a relatively large e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia. Since its establishment in Singapore in 2015, Shopee’s business has rapidly covered more than 10 markets including Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan, China, making it the fastest-growing e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia.

Advantages:

Low entry threshold: in some sites, you don’t need to pay any deposit to enter Shopee, as long as you have a business license, self-employed or business license. However, due to the rapid development of Shopee in recent years, a deposit of 3,000 yuan is required for domestic settlement.

Traffic: According to official statistics of Shopee, 40 million users visit Shopee every month, which is the largest e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia.

Perfect warehousing and logistics system: Shopee has warehouses in China and does not need international logistics, so it can be delivered to domestic transfer stations.

Disadvantages:

Low unit price: Compared with Amazon, Shopee’s main market is Southeast Asia, and the traffic is relatively small; Moreover, the current e-commerce market in Southeast Asia is immature, with high return rate, immature logistics system and relatively low unit price.

Consumers don’t trust you when you start late: Shopee platform started late, and the Southeast Asian market is weak and still in the development stage. Therefore, many consumers don’t have high trust in it, and most of them use cash on delivery.

eBay

EBay is also an established cross-border website, and its main services are online auction, e-commerce, shopping malls and so on. EBay has 37 independent websites and portals around the world, covering more than 190 countries and regions.

Advantages:

Have special customer service: eBay has special customer service, which can be communicated by telephone or online conversation.

Relatively flexible; EBay can be priced in a variety of ways, such as bidding without reserve price, bidding with low price, selling at a fixed price, etc., and the marketing methods of goods are also diversified.

Disadvantages:

Background operation is more difficult: at present, eBay only displays in English, so it will be more difficult for those businesses with weak English.

High cost: eBay doesn’t provide customs clearance service, so domestic merchants need to handle customs clearance by themselves.

Difficult to review: eBay is more inclined to buyers, has strict requirements for merchants, and the refund process is very low.

AliExpress

The full name of AliExpress is AliExpress, which is a cross-border e-commerce platform built by Alibaba in the international market, and is also called "international Taobao" by many sellers.

Advantages:

Low entry threshold: AliExpress has a low entry threshold and active trading, which is very suitable for many small businesses to export quickly.

The transaction process is convenient and fast: the exporter does not need to have the qualification of enterprise foreign trade, and does not need to import and declare in person, and the import and export can be completed by the logistics party.

Disadvantages:

Great competition: As the entry threshold of AliExpress is relatively low, a large number of cross-border people have settled in, and the homogenization competition is serious. Most businesses can only gain advantages through low prices.

Low profit: AliExpress mainly focuses on developing countries and underdeveloped countries.

Summary:

Finally, I want to say that no matter which cross-border platform you choose, you must first understand what you want to buy and who to sell it to. Only by clarifying the relationship between people and goods, can the overall operational objectives be determined, and better operational strategies be formulated to obtain more orders.

Science and Technology Daily reporter Zhang Wei correspondent Wu Qi

On April 20th, on the occasion of the 56th World Earth Day, a construction site in Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province opened its doors to popularize the technological achievements of low-carbon construction for the citizens.

"This is the pier of the bridge, just like the’ leg’ of the bridge. Under our feet is an integrated ladder cage and an outer frame platform used for pier construction. Different from other construction sites, these facade platforms are composed of modularity, just like building blocks, which can be assembled by themselves according to production needs, which reduces the steel loss by 25% compared with traditional scaffolding, which is both environmentally friendly and efficient. " The technician of Zhenghe Avenue Project of China Railway Eighth Bureau, the construction party, said.

"In the past, we were faced with all units in the industry. This time, opening the door to the general public is not only a test of the project construction level, but also enhances the communication between enterprises and society." At the activity site, Yang Zhiqiang was introducing the energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies, green construction techniques and the results of resource recycling applied in the project construction to the surrounding residents who came to visit.

Walking into the construction site, there was no smoke and dust generated by mechanical exhaust, and rows of piers rose from the ground to take shape. The standardized and intelligent construction scene made the visiting residents stop to take pictures. Yang Zhiqiang said: "This is an automatic dust monitoring system, which can be intelligently linked with the enclosure spray device. When the values of PM2.5 and PM10 on site exceed the standard, the system will automatically trigger the spray to let the dust’ fall to the ground’, thus realizing dynamic control." Not only do environmental protection in the enclosure be well implemented, but the project department also upgraded the automatic car washing device at the entrance and exit of the construction site. The sewage after precipitation and filtration can be used for secondary washing of vehicles and sprinkling water on roads to suppress dust. Through recycling, the construction water can be saved by 2000 tons on site every year.

From the construction point of view, it is not an easy task to achieve low carbon. Since entering the site, the Zhenghe Avenue project team of China Railway Eighth Bureau has insisted on integrating the concept of "zero carbon" into the construction details, and introduced a number of environmental protection measures in view of the high energy consumption and high pollution points in traditional construction. Through the linkage of mechanization+intelligence+greening, the project construction has started at full speed.

According to Jiang Yong, the person in charge of the project, the idea of reducing carbon in the project department starts from "replacement" and "reduction". For example, after the construction wastes are classified, hard wastes such as concrete blocks and masonry are broken into construction access roads, steel scraps are recycled into safety guardrails, and wood scraps are processed into temporary facility templates, with a comprehensive utilization rate of over 60%; The temporary facilities on the site are all made of reusable materials, and 70% of the components can be reused after the project. In addition, the introduction of solar outdoor lighting in the living quarters of the construction site can save about 12,000 kWh of electricity every year.

"It’s really not the same as the imagined construction site. I used to worry that the production of construction sites nearby would affect my life. Today, I see that there are so many scientific and environmental protection measures to ensure it, and my heart is much more practical!" Ms. Zhang, a surrounding resident who participated in the event, said with emotion. As a key project in Huishan District, Wuxi City, the construction of the bridge substructure of the project is currently in full swing. Talking about the follow-up construction plan, Jiang Yong said that in the future, the project department will actively apply AI technology to help in resource allocation and further realize the carbon reduction goal of the project construction.
