　　This circular shall come into force as of the date of promulgation, and shall be adjusted as the epidemic situation changes.

　　Shoulder-to-shoulder queue, the booming catering industry … … With the optimization and adjustment of epidemic prevention and control policies, offline consumption scenes such as restaurants and restaurants have been restored in an orderly manner, driving related consumption to pick up. According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics recently, from January to February 2023, the national catering revenue increased by 9.2% year-on-year.

　　Food and beverage consumption demand has been greatly released.

　　Recently, "one table is hard to find" has become a common feeling for many consumers to eat. At the Chaoshan beef shop in Beijing Road, Guangzhou, the "Chaofa" has a long queue, and there are dozens of tables waiting at 6 pm. By the weekend, the average daily number of this store is nearly 1,000 tables. The waiter trotted to serve food and shouted, "It seems that the guests can’t finish receiving it recently."

　　Passenger flow recovery promotes turnover growth. From January to February, 2023, the brands owned by Beijing Huatian increased by about 12% year-on-year. Among them, Tongheju Restaurant and Xinchuan Noodle Restaurant increased by more than 20% year-on-year. In particular, the sales of Tongheju Restaurant and Eryouju in February have exceeded 2019 and returned to normal levels.

　　In order to help the catering industry recover, from January to February, Beijing, Shenzhen and Hangzhou issued special coupons for catering, with obvious results. According to the data of Meituan, after Hangzhou, Ningbo, Shaoxing, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Dongguan and other cities issued coupons, the year-on-year growth rate of food consumption in restaurants reached double digits. In addition to issuing consumer vouchers, many local governments have also introduced policies to further optimize the business environment, including supporting outbound operations and launching "catering loan" financial products.

　　The "small" of catering reflects the "big" of development. According to the analysis of China Cuisine Association, from January to February, 2023, the growth rate of national catering revenue and catering revenue of units above designated size increased by 0.3 percentage points and 0.1 percentage points respectively compared with the same period of last year. From January to February this year, the national catering revenue accounted for 10.9% of the total retail sales of consumer goods, which was 5.7 percentage points higher than the total retail sales of consumer goods.

　　The relevant person in charge of the China Cuisine Association believes that from January to February, driven by the Spring Festival holiday and the policy of helping enterprises, the demand for catering consumption was greatly released, and the catering market rebounded significantly, which made a good start for the development of the whole year and played a "catalyst" role in boosting consumer confidence in 2023.

　　New kinetic energy "combustion-supporting" catering market

　　Potted vegetables and quick-frozen vegetables … … Guangzhou Restaurant accelerated the research and development of new prefabricated dishes and product upgrading, and the revenue of quick-frozen food was once the company’s second largest source of income. The White Paper on the Development of Prefabricated Vegetable Industry in China in 2022 shows that the scale of prefabricated vegetable market in China will reach 419.6 billion yuan in 2022, up by 21.3% year-on-year, and it is estimated that the market scale will exceed one trillion yuan in 2026.

　　Cheng Gang, secretary-general of Guangdong Food and Beverage Service Association, believes that due to the epidemic, people’s consumption behaviors and habits have changed, and many catering entities are "looking for opportunities in danger". Some actively adjust their business methods, including innovating catering products such as prefabricated vegetables, strengthening industrial cross-border integration, overlapping emerging consumption elements, expanding business space, optimizing brand experience and cognition, and finally enhancing consumer trust to activate the market, so as to achieve more stable, sustainable and virtuous development.

　　Including live broadcast, short video, digital channels and social sharing functions to help stimulate consumer demand, attract more passengers and stimulate catering consumption. "We enhance the brand’s popularity by planning videos such as the Fat Story Collection and the food recommendation official shop." Chai Biao, chairman of Feifei Shrimp Village, said that 70% to 80% of the passenger flow in some stores comes from the network platform.

　　More time-honored brands try cross-border innovation, combining eating and drinking with tourism, performance, entertainment, shopping and other formats, and enriching the consumption experience with diverse new scenes. In Shaanxi, there are more and more tourists in Yi Sushe Cultural District of Xi ‘an, which integrates Shaanxi opera performance, time-honored food and new retail of the country. Xi’ an restaurant head office lets customers immerse themselves in the local food culture through the Shaanxi cuisine culture experience museum; Time-honored enterprises turned into "convenience community canteens" and opened a new model of community chain.

　　Jin Wenping, secretary of the Party Committee and chairman of Xi ‘an Catering Co., Ltd. said that the opening of a new chapter of diversified development by time-honored brands is the epitome of the market-oriented reform and exploration of the catering industry with consumer demand as a breakthrough, which is conducive to promoting the development of the industry and enhancing the social and economic benefits of the brand.

　　New measures to stabilize industry confidence

　　"Give priority to restoring and expanding consumption", "Enhance consumption capacity, improve consumption conditions and innovate consumption scenarios" … … We will implement the requirements of the Central Economic Work Conference, and all localities will further clarify policies and stabilize expectations.

　　The policy of benefiting enterprises and benefiting the people continued to increase, boosting food and beverage consumption. For example, Beijing holds a variety of catering activities to promote consumption; Guangzhou has successively introduced catering support policies, with a maximum reward of 1 million yuan for transformed and upgraded catering enterprises and 2 million yuan for enterprises with increased turnover; Wenzhou has introduced ten measures to boost the confidence of catering industry development around reducing the institutional cost of catering industry access.

　　The main body of the catering industry is more confident and the investment layout is accelerated. Not long ago, at the China (Guangzhou) Catering Industry Development Conference and Investment and Financing Cooperation and Exchange Exhibition, hundreds of catering enterprises proposed nearly 1,000 brand catering investment projects, including Guangdong cuisine, Hunan cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, Shandong cuisine and other major domestic cuisines, as well as Japanese cuisine, Southeast Asian cuisine, Central Asian cuisine and other international flavors, with an investment of more than 3 billion yuan.

　　Zhang Yi, the person in charge of Ai Media Consulting, a third-party research institution, said that the expansion of the catering industry shows that confidence has gradually recovered, diversified and tends to middle and high-end projects. The catering industry pursues higher quality brand development and provides better services for consumers.

　　"From banquets, dinners, business receptions, prepared dishes and other aspects, we can see the signal of rapid recovery of the catering industry. New models, new channels and new technologies are constantly emerging, promoting the development of the catering industry to multiple formats and quality. " Chen Jianqi, vice president of Shaanxi Cooking and Catering Industry Association, said that it is also necessary to pay attention to the low threshold, intensified industry competition, low overall profit rate and increasing cost of raw materials and services. Therefore, it is necessary to make further efforts in specialization and industrialization to improve competitiveness.

　　Insiders said that in order to accelerate the comprehensive and steady recovery of the catering industry, it is necessary to continuously improve policy support and guidance, introduce policies to help and promote consumption that are more in line with enterprise needs and market expectations, guide the cultivation of leading enterprises and leading talents, and rationalize the industrial layout. At the same time, it is necessary to promote development and anti-waste, to innovate products and to keep the bottom line of food safety. (Reporter Ding Le, Ning Ji, Cai Xinyi, Li Jiaxu)

　　Why do you still have to queue up for non-parking charges? Provincial Communications Department Responds to Hot Issues in the Use of ETC System

　　On October 28th, it has been 21 days since the electronic toll collection system (ETC system) was opened on expressways in our province. The number of ETC customers has reached 50,681, exceeding the target of reaching 40,000 users before the end of the year. Some bank outlets even cannot handle business immediately because of insufficient hardware stock.

　　Recently, Feng Zhenglin, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Transport, proposed at a special meeting that all provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in China will basically be connected to the Internet before the end of 2015. This means that by the end of next year, ETC users in our province will be able to "all-in-one card" nationwide.

　　During the trial operation, the ETC system was impassable and the ETC lane was temporarily closed. On October 29th, the Expressway Monitoring and Settlement Center of the Provincial Communications Department responded to these problems.

　　Q1: Why can’t ETC pass?

　　There may be other vehicles breaking in by mistake.

　　A: This did happen at the beginning of the trial run, mainly because both hardware and software had to have a running-in period. At present, optimization is being carried out to solve the problem.

　　There are three main reasons why the ETC card cannot be used. First, the ETC card has not completed the issuance process, and it must be recharged after the first activation, even if it is only charged with 1 cent. If it is not recharged, the system will display it as an "illegal card". Second, there will be problems between lane and vehicle information interaction. Third, the vehicle without ETC system mistakenly entered ETC lane, and the system sensed that there was a car entering, but another plate of the vehicle was thrown over to take the artificial lane, which kept the ETC lane waiting for reading data. "Although we can debug and manually guide, it is still recommended that drivers who have not installed ETC should not mistakenly enter the ETC lane."

　　Q2: Why is the ETC lane closed?

　　Slow blocking and smooth during peak hours

　　A: ETC lanes have been temporarily closed, mainly concentrated in several gates of Chengdu Ring Expressway, such as connecting Chengguan Road and Chengpeng Road. At present, the utilization efficiency of ETC lane is not high, and the traffic flow is small. In the rush hour, toll station vehicles may even block the main line, which will affect the traffic safety. At this time, the high-speed will start the plan, manually watch the ETC lane, and allow vehicles without ETC system to pass through the ETC channel. This is also a measure to slow down the congestion and ensure smoothness, so drivers can understand. "

　　In addition, there are some special cases, such as Dazhou toll station, which cannot be expanded due to geographical reasons. There are only three lanes in each direction, of which one truck is used, leaving two lanes, so the ETC lane is often closed.

　　Q3: ETC is delayed?

　　OBU devices are in short supply.

　　A: At the beginning of the opening of ETC system, the established goal of Sichuan Provincial Communications Department was to develop 40,000 users by the end of the year, but as of 0: 00 on October 29, the number of ETC users in our province had reached 50,681, with an average increase of 2,100 per day. It is estimated that by the end of this year, ETC users in our province will exceed 100,000. The relevant person in charge of the Expressway Monitoring and Settlement Center of the Provincial Communications Department said, "Due to the rapid growth of users, some bank outlets have no OBU (on-board unit), and we are also urging banks to step up procurement to meet the needs of car owners."

　　At present, the province has opened 417 ETC lanes, covering 208 toll stations, with a coverage rate of 55.5%. This number will rise in the future. As of yesterday, the number of ETC lanes built in our province has reached 500. It is estimated that by next year, the ETC coverage rate of all main toll stations of Sichuan Expressway will reach 100%, and the lanes will not be less than two in and two out, while the ETC coverage rate of all ramp toll stations in the province will reach 90%.

　　Q4: Are there any other services?

　　We plan to launch ETC card in the future.

　　A: We are exploring, for example, the amount of each toll is prompted by bank SMS, and even the historical toll records are queried online. In the future, when the number of ETC users reaches a certain level, we will also open the business of handling ETC cards independently, which is equivalent to that vehicles without OBU (on-board unit) need not give change when passing through artificial lanes, but swipe ETC cards to give money, so as to improve the traffic rate of toll stations.

　　ETC usage reminder

　　1. Do not disassemble the OBU when using it; once disassembled, it will be invalid;

　　2. Vehicles equipped with ETC should not exceed 20 kilometers per hour when passing through the ETC lane, and keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front;

　　3. Ensure that the ETC card is always inserted in the OBU while the vehicle is driving;

　　4. During use, the ETC card and OBU must be in one-to-one correspondence with the vehicle, and the car is dedicated;

　　5. If you can’t get through normally or have questions about the charges, you can call 12122 for consultation. (Reporter Wang Haoye Intern Zhang Yuer)

Pacific science and technology informationOn August 22nd, Apple’s marketing team did an excellent job in promoting the advantages of its products and chips, even if it meant misleading consumers into believing that they were actually investing in cutting-edge products. Previously, the market generally thought that the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max were equipped with A16 bionic chips manufactured by TSMC in a 4-nanometer process. However, a person familiar with the matter overturned this view. He revealed that Apple internally marked this chip as a 5-nanometer chip, instead of the expected 4 nanometers.

The whistleblower further confirmed that A16 bionic chip was labeled as a 5-nanometer chip inside Apple. This may explain why Apple mentioned in the press release that the M2 Pro and M2 Max chips in the new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models are mass-produced on the 5-nanometer process instead of the 4-nanometer process.

On the other hand, Apple’s next-generation A17 bionic chip is determined to adopt TSMC’s most advanced 3 nm process. Due to the transition from 5 nm to 3 nm, the performance leap between A16 and A17 will be huge. It is reported that in the previous benchmark test, compared with the previous generation, A17 bionic chip has improved as much as 31% in single-core and multi-core results.

It is worth noting that this latest news makes the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max more attractive, because both phones will be equipped with A17 bionic chips. However, the relatively low-priced iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus may use A16 bionic chip.

However, this has also triggered netizens’ speculation, whether A17 is just another product promoted by Apple’s comprehensive marketing promotion, or whether the customized chip is actually designed and mass-produced on a brand-new architecture. Some netizens claimed that TSMC’s 3-nanometer process may only reduce the 5-nanometer nodes, and the real 3-nanometer process should adopt N3E technology. So far, we are disappointed that A16 is not a 4nm component, but this is not surprising, because the company always follows this practice.

Cctv newsAccording to the WeChat WeChat official account news released by Sanya, on the morning of March 17, 2023, the video of "A tour guide in Sanya suspected that tourists scolded tourists because they didn’t shop" attracted the attention of the media and netizens.

As a "happy hometown" for countless cross-border e-commerce sellers,1688 is also making efforts in cross-border e-commerce. On September 11th, 2024, at the press conference of "1688 Selection Center and 1688 Businessmen’s Festival" held in Taizhou, the person in charge of the 1688 Selection Center revealed that 1688 should rely on the offline selection center to make heavy investment in the industrial belt. At the same time, 1688 is aiming at the new outlet of cross-border e-commerce and laying out the whole link ecology of cross-border e-commerce.

Create the shortest link matching supply and demand

Nowadays, the supply of industrial belts is the focus of major platforms, and 1688 is no exception. At the press conference, the person in charge of the 1688 product selection center believes that the most advanced and shortest path to realize the digitalization of the industrial belt is to establish an online and offline integrated operation and service model. Therefore, the 1688 product selection center is jointly built by the government, chain owners, 1688 and the source manufacturers of industrial belts. Through the "four-in-one" online and offline operation mode, a business ecosystem of industrial belts with digital supply chains is jointly built, not just an offline entity.

The offline product selection center is set up, endorsed and guided by the government. The chain owner of the local supply chain is responsible for the daily operation, and the industrial belt factory is stationed to jointly aggregate the high-quality goods of the industrial belt, create a "front office and back warehouse" model, and provide comprehensive services integrating enterprise services and warehousing and logistics. Online, 1688 has also built a digital store in the product selection center, providing technical and digital capabilities, and relying on the advantages of 1688′ s entire network source, it has achieved omni-channel sales and efficient matching between supply and demand.

As of September 2024, 1688 has signed a cooperation agreement to build 12 product selection centers, of which 4 have been opened, and 6 are expected to open in September this year, mainly in Taizhou, Yiwu, Yongkang and Jiaxing in Zhejiang, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Shantou and Jieyang in Guangdong, and Zhengzhou in Henan. In the next three years, 1688 will continue to deeply cultivate 177 key industrial belts in 40 cities based on the core production areas and sales areas.

"In fact, what we hope to bring to the source factory of the industrial belt is the most efficient and shortest path business model. The core positioning of the product selection center is’ visiting the industrial belt in one day’. Whether you are visiting the industrial belt or purchasing it, whether you are an online digital shopping center or an offline shopping center, you can see the ability and panorama of the industrial belt, making it easy to purchase in one stop. " The person in charge of 1688 selection said.

1688 has been deeply ploughing and reinvesting in the industrial belt. Now, in 1688, it is necessary to increase investment and put the core strategic projects into the industrial belt one after another. The 1688 member store will rely on the offline product selection center as the springboard and bridgehead, go out from 1688, and open stores from online to offline at the same time, and establish white-label supply chain supermarkets for Sam member supermarkets and costco (opening customers) under the marking line.

It is reported that the goal of developing member stores in 1688 is to build a "global member store driven by white brand supply chain", and to provide services to members online and offline. At present, the number of paid members of 1688 has reached nearly 10 million, exceeding the scale of paid members of Sam in China, and the number of members in the past year has increased by more than 400% year-on-year.

The supply of 1688 offline member stores will be relatively vertical, and different sources will be supplied according to different industrial belts. Next, 1688 will gradually combine the characteristic trend products of various industrial belts with offline product selection centers, so that every member of 1688 can buy the national characteristic white-brand products locally.

At the same time, 1688 YEATION will also rely on some product selection centers, unite with China’s major brand foundries and factories with strong R&D and manufacturing capabilities, and launch 1688 YEATION’s branded products, further giving play to the advantages of large-scale supply chain, so that 1688 members can enjoy more differentiated quality products.

Output "supply chain solutions" that can be integrated.

Product selection is the primary link of cross-border e-commerce. The person in charge of the 1688 product selection center revealed that the "Domestic YEATION" was launched in 1688. Now, in order to better help cross-border e-commerce sellers to select products, the "Cross-border YEATION" will be launched. According to the latest consumption trends of overseas consumers, products that meet the needs of cross-border e-commerce sellers will be screened out to provide guarantee for product quality and back-end services.

At present, 1688 focuses on just-needed categories of consumption, which, in summary, are eating, drinking, having fun, daily use and beauty trends. For example, Zhengzhou’s food, Shantou’s toys, Taizhou’s storage, Yiwu’s Ribai, Guangzhou’s beauty cosmetics, Shenzhen’s digital products, Jieyang’s household appliances, etc. are all core categories of the industrial belt and just-needed categories.

The person in charge of the 1688 product selection center said: "1688′ s cross-border e-commerce business does not do overseas 2C, but serves overseas small B buyers. 1688 is to help cross-border e-commerce buyers and sellers achieve more efficient supply and demand matching in an ecological way. For example, in cooperation with overseas independent stations, the products are directly laid on the independent stations by means of source-seeking communication. In addition, many large and medium-sized overseas buyers now have their own ERP systems, which will involve product inventory and supplier management. 1688 will be embedded in ERP based on their demands, and one-click distribution of goods will be carried out."

Specifically, 1688 is to turn China’s digital supply chain into a digital "chip"-like solution and capability that can be integrated, and then do cross-border cooperation, which is neither Apple mode nor Android mode, but more like Intel mode.

In the early days of cross-border e-commerce, cross-border e-commerceThe links are deep and long, and many links are impassable. Buyers find it hard to use, so they need to hire a Chinese agent or set up an office in China to find someone to choose goods on 1688. Now these links are open, and the interface is more friendly, turning into a digital "chip", plug and play.

When overseas buyers get the digital "chip", it is equivalent to getting the capacity of the whole China industrial belt, which is the largest digital assembly and digital supply chain supplied by the source. Buyers can also customize their needs. For example, if they choose Vietnam, 1688 will help them choose those supplies that meet the needs of Vietnam, recommend pallets that Vietnamese young people like, and provide supporting services for localized performance.

In the cross-border supply chain, 1688 is ready to export an integrated "supply chain solution", that is, a digital "chip" that integrates the white-label supply of China industries and can be "plug and play". Overseas buyers can only make inquiries on 1688 before, but now they can use AI to handle customs clearance, foreign exchange settlement, local distribution, and even the return and exchange of some key countries are done by 1688 and ecological partners. The core of "1688" is to help pallets go out to sea, with emphasis on the waist-high competitive and dynamic supply of China industries.
