Double 11 just closed. On November 15th, Ali (HK09988, share price of HK$ 87.20, market value of HK$ 1.67 trillion) handed over the report card of the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 (the quarter ending September 30th, 2024).

　　The financial report shows that in this quarter, Ali’s income was 236.503 billion yuan, up 5% year-on-year, and the net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders was 43.874 billion yuan.

　　In the e-commerce business that has attracted much attention, in this quarter, the growth of GMV on Amoy Antenna was driven by the double-digit year-on-year growth of order volume, which was mainly driven by the increase of purchase frequency and partly offset by the decrease of average order amount.

　　In addition, Ali also mentioned the achievements of this year’s "double 11". During this year’s "double 11", Taobao Tmall GMV achieved strong growth, and the number of buyers reached a record high.

　　For this financial report, Wu Yongming, CEO of Ali Group, said that this quarter, Taotian business continued to invest in user experience and enrich product supply to better serve consumers. He said that he has more confidence in the prospect of core business than in the past, and will continue to invest to support long-term growth. The operating efficiency of other businesses continues to improve, and most businesses continue to improve profitability or reduce losses.

　　It is worth mentioning that in this quarter alone, Ali has made a lot of moves in the e-commerce business. Since September 1st this year, Taotian began to charge the basic software service fee based on GMV for transactions on the platform. In July, Taobao announced the optimization of the "refund only" strategy. In addition, this quarter, Taotian also cancelled and refunded the annual fee of merchants, and improved the operating efficiency of merchants through "all-site promotion". This series of actions may indicate that Taotian has a new strategic direction in e-commerce business.

　　It is worth mentioning that this quarter’s financial report shows that Alibaba continued to buy back shares, and this quarter invested 4.1 billion US dollars to buy back 414 million common shares, and the outstanding shares further decreased by 2.1% compared with the end of June.

　　Increase investment in e-commerce business: have high expectations for the growth of Taotian users.

　　As far as this quarter is concerned, Ali is increasing investment in domestic and overseas e-commerce business and has made many layout actions.

　　As far as Taotian Group is concerned, the financial report mentioned that this quarter, Taotian increased investment in strategic measures such as goods with competitive prices, customer service, membership system rights and technologies, aiming at improving the user experience. These measures have brought higher purchase frequency and better feedback on the overall shopping experience than the same period last year.

　　At the analyst conference call that night, Ali executives stated in detail that for Taobao Tmall platform, the current strategy is to increase investment in the whole user experience and business side while improving profitability. "In terms of investment, there will be many ways. First, we will broaden the supply advantages, such as price power, new products and brands with competitive advantages, and we will also provide users with a better user experience."

　　He also mentioned that he will continue to invest in the technology platform, especially in the computing power investment of e-commerce. There are many AI-related products under development, and these AI-related products will need to use relatively strong AI computing power.

　　In addition, Ali further mentioned the value of 88VIP in the financial report. According to him, 88VIP members are the consumer groups with the highest purchasing power, and their number continued to increase by double digits year-on-year this quarter, reaching 46 million.

　　Ali mentioned that high-end consumers are loyal customers who can increase the frequency of purchase and promote the growth of GMV. Therefore, it is committed to continuously increasing the number of 88VIP members by enhancing the investment in membership rights and services.

　　It is worth mentioning that in September, Taobao announced that it would gradually open WeChat payment to all Taobao Tmall merchants after September 12.

　　In this regard, in the analyst conference call, Ali executives said that after accessing WeChat payment, they have high expectations for user growth and will make relatively medium-and long-term investment in user growth and retention. "The future is a relatively large investment direction." He said that Taotian is still in the investment period at this stage, and will continue to pay attention to investment efficiency at this stage, and at the same time make better and greater investments by improving CMR.

　　It is worth mentioning that, in this quarter, Taotiantian is trying to better balance the relationship with merchants, regardless of the direction of collecting basic software service fees based on GMV, loosening the "refund only" and investing, and has made a lot of efforts to improve the experience of merchants on the platform. In this year’s "double 11", Taotian is no longer blindly "rolling in low prices", and its attention to middle and high-end consumers such as 88VIP is also rising, which shows that it is competing with Pinduoduo’s low-price route in a dislocation way.

　　In this conference call, Ali executives mentioned: "I think this year is a turning point. For brand owners, they will really choose a platform that can bring them more sales, rather than simply putting in a growth. Under this circumstance, Taobao Tmall’s advantage in obtaining brand budgets will expand in the future. "

　　According to the financial report, the customer management revenue of China retail business of Taotian Group increased by 2% year-on-year, mainly due to the growth of online GMV.

　　In the overseas e-commerce business, Ali’s investment is still not small. In this quarter, the revenue of Ali International Digital Business Group increased by 29% year-on-year, and the economic benefit of AliExpress Choice business unit improved month-on-month.

　　However, in this quarter, the adjusted EBITA (profit before interest, tax and amortization) of the international digital business group was a loss of RMB 2.905 billion, compared with a loss of RMB 384 million in the same period of 2023, which was mainly due to the increase in investment in AliExpress and Trendyol’s cross-border business, partly offset by the significant reduction in operating losses caused by the improvement of Lazada’s liquidity rate and operational efficiency.

　　Affected by cross-border business, rookie revenue increased by 8% year-on-year to 24.647 billion yuan this quarter, mainly due to the growth of cross-border logistics service revenue.

　　While increasing investment in e-commerce business, the financial report shows that in this quarter, the losses of local life group and big entertainment group both narrowed year-on-year, and the business operation efficiency was optimized in a planned and rhythmic manner. At the same time, hungry, high-tech orders increased, and business scale increased.

　　Will e-commerce turn from "low price war" to "AI war"?

　　In this quarter’s financial report, the presence of AI is still not low.

　　Ali’s financial report mentioned that focusing on the integrated development of "Cloud +AI", Alibaba Cloud’s commercial income growth accelerated, and its quarterly income increased by 7% year-on-year. It is worth noting that it continues to be driven by the double-digit growth of public clouds, and the revenue of AI-related products has achieved three-digit year-on-year growth for five consecutive quarters; Adjusted EBITA increased by 89% year-on-year.

　　On the conference call, Ali executives even said: "We believe that the prelude of the AI ? ? era has only started at a high level, and it is still in the early stage of API reform. The imagination of AI for the future will not be limited to mobile phone screens, but will reshape the digital world, which will eventually affect or even change all walks of life in the physical world."

　　According to the reporter’s understanding, Ali’s "AI-driven" strategy has been launched for one year, and many businesses under Ali have launched AI. In the e-commerce business alone, many products have been launched.

　　When Ali released this financial report, he mentioned that Taobao launched AI products as "business stewards" for all businesses. This year, "double 11" has served 4 million businesses and helped small and medium-sized businesses generate more than 100 million products and marketing materials. Ali also mentioned that the penetration rate of the AI-driven marketing tool "all-site promotion" has steadily increased, helping businesses to improve marketing efficiency and further improve the level of commercialization in a rhythm.

　　In addition, on October 28th, Ali International Station comprehensively upgraded AI foreign trade products. According to the data provided by Ali International Station, at present, more than 60,000 small and medium-sized enterprises around the world are using the AI products of Ali International Station, and the scale of products released by AI has reached 7 million. Recently, Ali International also launched Accio, the world’s first AI Search engine in B2B field, which is open to global businesses and officially entered the AI Search circuit.

　　According to reports, users can use "vernacular" to ask about AI and put forward demands. Accio will take the initiative to sort out and understand what users really want through many rounds of dialogues, and disassemble demands, investigate the market and give suggestions through professional B2B industry knowledge, so as to screen suppliers and recommend goods more accurately, and provide one-stop intelligent procurement services like a truly professional agent.

　　In fact, many platforms have launched AI search products recently. Will the emergence of AI products bring new changes to the e-commerce world?

　　Pan Helin, a member of the Information and Communication Economy Expert Committee of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, told the national business daily that AI search has two functions, one is to help users find answers to some difficult questions or search links. Another function is to guide the links that Ali and Tik Tok want users to see in the optional search results. Therefore, this can bring traffic to e-commerce and content platforms, which is a new idea for e-commerce development at present.

　　In the eyes of the industry, the changes that AI can bring to the e-commerce world are indeed not only as simple as reducing costs and increasing efficiency. Zhuang Shuai, the founder of Bailian Consulting, told national business daily that AI is reshaping e-commerce. In his view, AI can not only (enhance) the attractiveness of merchants, but also bring about changes in profit model (service income can be greatly improved), and improve the efficiency of new product research and development, improve differentiated supply and reduce price competition.

　　It is worth mentioning that while successively launching AI products and rushing to invest in AI startups, there has even been a war of grabbing people between Internet platforms.

　　On November 13th, according to the science and technology innovation board Journal, it was reported that Zhou Chang, a former employee of ali tong Yida Model, had violated the non-competition agreement, and Ali had sued and submitted an application for labor dispute arbitration. After Zhou Chang left his post in July this year, some media reported that Zhou Chang had joined Byte in August to work on AI big model. In the long run, after the low-price war, the AI ? ? war between major Internet will also affect the ranking of major e-commerce platforms in the e-commerce world.

　　For Ali, the whole fiscal year of 2025 is over half, and the highlight "double 11" has also ended. Under the leadership of the management, Taotian has made a shift in business strategy and further interconnection, but on the whole, Ali is still increasing investment in e-commerce business, and it is still inconclusive how many positive effects these new measures can bring to Taotian, which was originally trapped in stock competition. However, judging from the external expression of the management, after a short period of reflection, Ali’s confidence in the future has returned.

　　On March 1st, Premier Li Qiang of the State Council presided over the the State Council executive meeting, which discussed and adopted the Action Plan for Promoting Large-scale Equipment Renewal and Trade-in of Consumer Goods. The meeting pointed out that "promoting a new round of large-scale equipment renewal and trade-in of consumer goods is a major decision made by the CPC Central Committee focusing on the overall situation of China’s high-quality development".

　　In 2023, China’s exports denominated in US dollars decreased by 4.6% year-on-year, which was the first year-on-year negative growth since 2016; Domestically, due to the downturn in the real estate market, the growth rate of investment has also declined. The decision of "trade-in" of consumer goods is put forward in the current complicated domestic and international environment, hoping to play a role in "stabilizing and expanding traditional consumption".

　　The meeting pointed out that this round of "trade-in" should "combine the differentiated needs of upgrading various types of equipment and consumer goods, and increase fiscal, taxation, financial and other policy support". In terms of related fields, "actively carry out the trade-in of consumer goods such as automobiles and household appliances, forming the scale effect of upgrading". It can be seen that this round of "trade-in" is more focused on bulk consumption represented by durable goods. Different from the consumption stimulus policies such as automobile tax reduction and exemption since the epidemic, the meeting clearly pointed out that it is necessary to form a "scale effect of upgrading", indicating that the strength of the policy is unprecedented and the goal to be achieved is clear.

　　Similar to the "home appliances going to the countryside" that began at the end of 2008, this round of "trade-in" is partly due to the decline of external demand, which is intended to expand the domestic demand market and stabilize economic growth. The difference is that, first, the demand is different. If "home appliances going to the countryside" is to meet the rigid demand of residents’ life, then this round of "trade-in" is to meet the improvement demand, and further improve the standard and improve the quality of life of residents on the premise that the basic living materials of residents are met; Second, the target groups are different. "Home appliances going to the countryside" is more about filling the gap of rural household appliances, that is, it is aimed at the problem of insufficient supply of rural household appliances, but this problem does not exist in this round of "trade-in". At present, even rural families have already achieved the popularization of household appliances, and the target groups of this round are mainly the owners of existing durable consumer goods such as cars and household appliances.

　　In view of the characteristics of this round of "trade-in", it can be promoted from the following aspects:

　　First, introduce a relative "elimination" model. This round of "trade-in" is aimed at improving demand, and consumers have greater selectivity than just needed. In the face of the downward pressure of economy, most consumers have the psychology of delaying consumption in the face of improving consumption of durable goods with large expenditure. To ensure that the policy achieves the "scale effect of upgrading", it is necessary to increase policy support for some commodities. For automobile consumption, we can give more subsidies and tax incentives to certain types of vehicles, such as new energy vehicles, and promote the popularization and improvement of other supporting facilities needed for this type of vehicles. For consumer goods such as household appliances, the relative "elimination" mode can be introduced through the formulation of corresponding exchange rules, so as to promote trade-in and reduce delayed consumption. For example, through the formulation of exchange standards, the circulation value of old household appliances can be clarified, and then the relative elimination cost of old household appliances can be clarified, so as to promote residents to deal with the consumption of old household appliances as soon as possible and reduce the delayed consumption of household appliances.

　　Second, set standards as soon as possible. "Trade-in" first needs to set the standard of "exchange" to meet the needs of different groups, and the standard can be set from different dimensions. From the dimension of consumer goods, it is necessary to set the standard of "old" exchange for "new"; Different subsidies, discounts and exchange standards can also be set for "new", even if the preferential strength is not great, it will have the effect of forcing manufacturers to upgrade their products.

　　The purpose of "trade-in" is to improve the quality of life of residents, but it does not mean wasting. Therefore, in the process of "trade-in", we should really consider the rights and interests of consumers and the allocation benefits of resources.

　　First, strengthen the recycling of durable goods and develop circular economy. Exchange is divided into two parts: recovery and reuse. The "recycling" part is to exchange the old for the new, which mainly involves the formulation of standards and the operation and maintenance of platform accounts, and the "reuse" part is to further improve social utility through the differentiation of improvement needs. In view of different personal preferences and consumption levels, the performance of some replaced old consumer goods may still be better than that of new consumer goods with relatively low prices. In this way, through reasonable points exchange and the construction of second-hand platforms, both parties can obtain satisfactory results and further improve the effectiveness of both parties. The significance of building the "exchange and recycling" platform lies in improving the liquidity of durable goods such as household appliances, speeding up the process of eliminating and upgrading household appliances, promoting the consumption of durable goods, and improving the quality of life of floating population and renters. The circulation of second-hand household appliances is especially beneficial to the development of the housing rental market and promotes the flow of talents.

　　Second, we should respect the property rights of residents’ private property. Household appliances and automobiles are the private property of residents, and they are generally "big items" in household durable goods, with high value, accounting for a relatively large proportion of residents’ property. We should earnestly consider the rights and interests and economic situation of existing consumer goods owners, resolutely put an end to the practice of forcing household durable goods to be scrapped by means of laws and administrative orders, and effectively protect the property rights of residents. "Trade-in" should be implemented on the basis of residents’ willingness. The design and implementation of policies should ensure the realization of "Pareto improvement", that is, the welfare of some people can be improved without harming the welfare of others.

What do you know about the custom of Dragon Boat Festival?

DUAN

erect

WU

noon

Dragon Boat Festival is one of the four traditional festivals in China.

Celebrate every year on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.

The origins and customs are rich and varied.

Has profound cultural connotation.

The origin of Duanwu Festival

It is said that the custom of eating zongzi and racing dragon boats on the Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate Qu Yuan, a great poet in Chinese history. It is precisely because of this that the Dragon Boat Festival was named "Poet’s Day" after the founding of New China.

In the history of our country, the saying that the Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate Qu Yuan has a history of more than 1500 years. According to legend, after Qu Yuan threw himself into the Miluo River, the local people immediately rowed for rescue and went all the way to Dongting Lake, but Qu Yuan’s body was never seen. At that time, it was rainy, and the boats on the lake gathered together beside the pavilion on the shore. When people learned that it was to salvage the virtuous minister Dr. Qu, they went out in the rain again and rushed into the vast Dongting Lake. In order to mourn, people rowed on rivers, and then it gradually developed into a dragon boat race. The people were afraid that the fish in the river would eat his body, so they went home to bring rice balls and throw them into the river to prevent fish and shrimp from ruining Qu Yuan’s body. Later, it became the custom to eat zongzi.

The custom of Duanwu Festival

dragon boat race

Dragon boat race is the main custom of the Dragon Boat Festival. According to legend, it originated in ancient times, because Chu people could not bear to part with Qu Yuan, a worthy minister, and died in the river, many people rowed to catch up and save. They scrambled to catch up with each other until Dongting Lake disappeared. After that, I will row a dragon boat on May 5th every year to commemorate it. People use dragon boats to disperse the fish in the river so as not to eat Qu Yuan’s body. The habit of racing is prevalent in Wu, Yue and Chu.

eat Zongzi

Eating zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival is another traditional custom of Chinese residents. Zongzi, also known as "horn millet" and "tube zongzi". It has a long history and various patterns. On the morning of Dragon Boat Festival, families eat zongzi to commemorate Qu Yuan. Generally, they wrap zongzi the day before, cook them at night and eat them in the morning. Dumplings are mainly made of tender reed leaves which are abundant along the river pond, and bamboo leaves are also useful in some areas, collectively called zongye. The traditional form of zongzi is triangle, which is generally named after the inner pulp. The glutinous rice dumplings are called rice dumplings, the ones mixed with adzuki beans are called adzuki dumplings, and the ones mixed with red dates are called jujube dumplings, which are collectively called glutinous rice dumplings. Jujube dumplings are homophonic for "early middle school", so they are eaten the most, and children who intend to study can win the championship early. In the past, scholars used to eat jujube dumplings in the morning on the day of taking the imperial examination. Up to now, parents have to make jujube dumplings for candidates on the morning of the entrance examination day for middle schools and universities, wishing them a good school.

Tie colorful ropes and wear sachets.

Five-color lines are mainly composed of five colors: green, red, white, black and yellow. These five colors are called auspicious colors, and they can be worn on the Dragon Boat Festival to keep you safe. Later, the custom of tying colorful ropes gradually evolved into hanging sachets, and children wore sachets on the Dragon Boat Festival. Legend has it that it meant to ward off evil spirits and drive away plague (in ancient times, people thought that they were sick because of monsters and ghosts), but it was actually used to decorate the inner head. The sachet contains cinnabar, realgar and fragrant medicine, wrapped with silk cloth, which is full of fragrance, and then tied with five-color silk threads to form a rope, making a string in various shapes, all kinds of shapes, small and lovely. In some southern cities of China, young men and women also use sachets to express their deep love.

Hanging wormwood and calamus

A folk proverb says, "Willows are inserted in Qingming Festival, and Ai is inserted in Dragon Boat Festival". On the Dragon Boat Festival, people regard inserting wormwood and calamus as one of the important contents. Every household should sweep the courtyard and put calamus and moxa sticks in the lintel and hang them in the hall. Acorus calamus, Folium Artemisiae Argyi, Liuhua, Bulbus Allii and Dragon Boat Flower are made into human or tiger shapes, which are called Ai Ren and Ai Hu. It is made into garlands and ornaments, which are beautiful and fragrant, and women compete to wear them to drive away evil. Dragon Boat Festival is also a "health festival" handed down from ancient times. On this day, people sweep the courtyard, hang mugwort, hang calamus, sprinkle realgar water, drink realgar wine, stir up turbidity, remove rot, sterilize and prevent diseases. They are considered to have the effect of exorcising evil spirits and protecting the health and safety of family members.

Point realgar wine

Realgar is also a kind of medicinal material, which is said to kill all kinds of poisons. Therefore, during the Dragon Boat Festival, Shaanxi people will soak realgar in wine and put realgar wine on children’s ears, nose, forehead, wrists and ankles. It is said that this practice can keep mosquitoes, snakes, scorpions, centipedes, geckos and spiders off their bodies.

Eat salted duck eggs

Eating salted duck eggs on the Dragon Boat Festival is a big custom. As the saying goes, "You have to eat salted egg zongzi to send the chill." After the Dragon Boat Festival, it indicates that the hot summer is coming, and the activities of animals and plants have entered a vigorous stage. In addition, the humid climate and the active diseases, pests and bacteria are easy to cause many diseases. Eating salted duck eggs on the Dragon Boat Festival can detoxify and help keep healthy.

The contents of the Dragon Boat Festival customs are rich and varied, including polo, grass fighting, painting, flying kites, and there are some small differences in details because of different regional cultures throughout the country.

Do you understand these customs of the Dragon Boat Festival?

Feng Yuyi, a trainee reporter of Southern Finance and Economics, reports from Zhuhai.

In the era of Industry 4.0, AGV/AMR (Mobile Robot for Industrial Application) has become a vital part of industrial production intelligence, and gradually penetrated into manufacturing, logistics and service industries, and the charging industry promoted by this is in the cusp of vigorous development.

At present, the 100 billion-level charging and power market formed by new energy industrial vehicles such as mobile robots, mining machines, low-speed unmanned vehicles and lithium-ion forklifts, as well as the continuation market of secondary sales of charging modules, power batteries and replacement of charging equipment, are accelerating.

According to the forecast of AGV/AMR industry alliance, it is estimated that the new AGV/AMR in China will exceed 120,000 units in 2023, and the new market will exceed 200,000 units in 2025, with a market scale exceeding 45 billion yuan. The compound growth rate of sales in the next five years will remain above 40%. Among them, AGV/AMR charging and power system are two important systems of electric industrial vehicles, accounting for over 8%.

"Electrification and intelligentization of industrial vehicles are the general trend. Even though industrial manufacturing has faced various difficulties in the past three years, the AGV/AMR charging industry is still in a period of rapid growth with strong demand and full of resilience. With the diversified application scenarios of mobile robots, the penetration rate of the charging industry will be further improved. " Recently, Zou Jianjun, founder, chairman and CEO of Guangdong Titan Intelligent Power Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Titan Intelligent"), said in an interview with Southern Finance and Economics all-media reporter.

Founded in 2016, Titan Intelligence is a state-level specialized and new "Little Giant" enterprise focusing on providing overall energy solutions and back-end data services for new energy industrial vehicles. In the context of rising industry demand and maturing technology, Titan Intelligent won the A round of financing from Zhuoshi Investment in 2022.

Compete for product pricing power

At the beginning of Titan Intelligent’s entry into the new track, it coincided with the wave of "oil to electricity" and "lead to lithium" for industrial vehicles. Under the market reform dividend brought by the "double carbon" background, Titan Intelligent stood out and quickly opened the market with its research and development capabilities and market sense.

When talking about why the track was chosen, Zou Jianjun said, "In the process of a customer chat, it was found that the AGV/AMR charging industry is generally a’ one-price’ sale, which is completely a market where the seller has the pricing power." After market research, he found that the domestic AGV/AMR and the charging products of electrified industrial vehicles were almost all imported from abroad. Although the domestic market demand was huge, there was no bargaining power.

After gaining insight into this new market trend, Titan Intelligent accelerated its layout research and development with AGV/AMR and intelligent lithium-ion charging equipment and batteries for electrified industrial vehicles as the main business, and the annual investment in research and development accounted for about 10% of its main business income. In a few years, Titan Intelligent Power has successively launched the digital intelligent charging series for industrial electric vehicles, the side charging and charging integrated machine series for intelligent manipulator of mobile robots, the power battery series for mobile robots, the power battery series for low-speed unmanned vehicles, the power charging series for low-speed unmanned vehicles, wireless charging for mobile robots and other efficient and stable overall charging solutions. The application scenarios involved run through all links of the whole industrial chain, and cover application places such as logistics and transportation, smart home appliances and public infrastructure.

"Although we started later than foreign countries, relying on China’s R&D foundation and industrial chain advantages in the field of new energy charging, we quickly mastered the right to speak in the industry in the game with foreign products, let the price return to a reasonable range, and achieve the domestic market share. First." Zou Jianjun said that more and more foreign manufacturers began to choose to use Titan smart products.

According to reports, while entering the mainstream AGV brand manufacturers in China, including Hangcha Group, Heli Forklift, Kuka Robot, Xinsong Robot, BYD, etc., Titan Intelligence has also obtained international qualification certifications such as cTUVus and CE, and is exported to 195 countries and regions such as America, Europe, Africa, Southeast Asia and Australia, reaching a global coverage rate of 85%. Internationalization has become one of the ideas of Titan’s intelligent "by going up one flight of stairs". Zou Jianjun said, "The forklift truck for lithium battery industry is our important market. 70%-80% of the demand is overseas. Expanding business overseas is equivalent to catching this blue ocean market."

According to the data of Chinafork. com, the global forklift market will be about 150 billion yuan in 2022, including 110 billion yuan in overseas market and 40 billion yuan in domestic market. Domestic forklifts mostly use lithium battery as the main power, and the trend of replacing lead-acid battery forklifts in foreign markets has accelerated significantly, or it will usher in important development opportunities.

With the iterative upgrading of new energy battery technology, it also brings more room for improvement for the mobile robot industry, and is highly expected in reducing costs, improving efficiency, and industrial transformation and upgrading.

Based on long-term observation of the market, Zou Jianjun bet on lithium iron phosphate battery. Titan Intelligent established a subsidiary-Zhuhai Titan Lineng Technology Co., Ltd., and has its own PACK factory, which mainly develops and produces AMR and AGV power lithium battery packs, further improving the overall solution of the power system.

In Zou Jianjun’s view, compared with traditional lead-acid batteries, lithium batteries have the advantages of lighter weight, smaller volume and higher energy density, so the lithium battery forklift model is more compact and the vehicle stability is higher. "And in recent years, the acceptance of lithium battery forklifts by end customers, especially high-end customers, has steadily increased. We believe that the future development prospects of the lithium battery market are very broad."

Explore and create a new model of "energy products+data services"

Walking into the research laboratory of Titan Intelligence, the wireless charger, which is called the "charging treasure" of the mobile robot, is executing the command set by the wireless energy emitting device, and automatically recognizes charging from a distance after finishing the workflow. A series of actions are flowing, and fully automatic and intelligent charging can be realized without connecting vehicles.

This is the research and development site of Titan Intelligent’s autonomous intelligent AGV charging system based on magnetic coupling resonant wireless charging technology, which has no electrode oxidation and fouling, reduces the charging accident caused by poor electrode contact, not only improves the safety and applicability, but also makes AGV charging products more intelligent.

Zou Jianjun revealed that the high-power wireless charger series independently developed by the company has built technical barriers in coil design, circuit research and core algorithm. At present, it has completed the verification in the laboratory stage and will go to the stage of commercialization and mass production next year. "The era of wireless charging has arrived, and it is expected that there will be an outbreak in the next five to ten years."

Compared with wireless charging of electric vehicles, AGV wireless charging requires fast charging mode with low voltage and high current, and the main challenge is to require small size, high efficiency and high cost performance. Zou Jianjun introduced, "We combine AGV battery and wireless charging to build an overall AGV power system, realize modular development, reduce the volume by 50%, and continuously improve the product stability, which is our design idea and core competitiveness to fundamentally reduce costs."

At present, the industrial wireless charging technology track targeted by Titan Intelligence is becoming increasingly hot at home and abroad. According to the incomplete statistics of Southern Finance and Economics reporters, there are already manufacturers in the domestic market, such as Baiyi Technology, Luyu Energy, Avant-garde Wireless, Qingdao Paworth, Taihang Jiaxin Electric, etc., who have laid out new technologies, and new scenes and new applications are constantly opening up. In foreign markets, Tesla announced in June this year that it plans to acquire Wiferion, a German manufacturer that provides wireless charging technology for AGV/AMR.

While Titan Smart continues to increase its research and development of wireless charging systems, the team is constantly exploring innovations in business models.

In recent years, with the blessing of AI, mobile robots have been continuously upgraded intelligently, becoming the "nerve center" of the digital intelligent transformation of traditional manufacturing industry, which is expected to usher in large-scale applications in new energy vehicles, new retail and big health fields.

Facing the future, Titan Intelligence is building a general power platform for mobile robots, equipped with wireless charging system, power system, drive control system and background data management system, exploring software and hardware technologies, and establishing a development model of "energy products+data services".

Zou Jianjun believes that mobile robots must be one of the best carriers of AI applications, and connecting mobile robots with data services "chain" will be the development trend of the future industry.

In Zou Jianjun’s view, AGV charging product providers not only supply mobile robot parts, but also provide end customers with overall energy solutions from warehousing transformation to material docking and maintenance services. "This requires analyzing the density and quality of information collected by mobile robots from the data level to build a new ecosystem, which is also the underlying logic of our layout of this emerging business."

Set up a leading group for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements with the secretary and the principal as the team leader and the heads of relevant functional departments as members to promote the transformation of scientific and technological achievements as a whole. The second is to improve the supervision and management process. Improve the working rules of the academic Committee of the school, hold regular academic Committee meetings, dynamically adjust members, and effectively improve the effectiveness of academic governance and supervision. The scientific research work will be included in the school’s annual work points and the annual "Ten Practical Things", and the school’s supervision office will be responsible for supervising and compacting the main responsibility of scientific research work. The third is to improve the evaluation methods. Formulate the Assessment Method for Improving the Innovation Ability of Scientific Research Platform of Guizhou University (Trial) and the Graded and Classified Integral Standard for the Performance Assessment of Academic Contribution of Scientific Research of Guizhou University (Trial), explore the classified evaluation and assessment methods oriented to quality and contribution, and stimulate the vitality of scientific researchers at all levels and categories. Strengthen the application of assessment results, reasonably link the effectiveness of scientific research with professional title evaluation, post appointment, talent evaluation and performance assessment, and enhance teachers’ enthusiasm and initiative.

　　Focus on scientific research and innovation.First, take the national platform as the fulcrum to serve the national and regional major strategies. Give full play to the role of the National Key Laboratory of Green Pesticides and the National Key Laboratory of Public Big Data jointly established by the province and the Ministry, anchor the scientific and technological frontiers such as the integration, open sharing and security of green pesticides, food security and public big data, actively undertake major national projects, develop new technologies based on biological prevention and control, and crack key technologies such as data fusion, data analysis and intelligent analysis. Focusing on the strategy of "rich minerals and refined mining" in Guizhou Province, we took the lead in setting up an expert team of "manganese", "phosphorus" and "barite-fluorite", with academicians as the chief scientists of the team and national leading talents as the chief scientists of sub-teams, and organized 20 key transformation projects involving the mining and processing of major minerals such as coal, phosphorus, manganese and aluminum, which strongly supported the development of regional industries. The second is to innovate the system and mechanism of school-enterprise cooperation with strategic demand as the traction. We will implement the plan of science and technology commissioners, send 56 doctoral experts to eight industrial fields, such as Maotai-flavor liquor and new energy materials, and 76 small and medium-sized enterprises as vice presidents of industrial technology innovation, build a service model chain of "talent team-leading industries-key production areas-leading enterprises-key scientific and technological projects" for the whole industry, and get through the difficulties of school-enterprise cooperation. Implement the "double tutor+two-stage" postgraduate training mode, encourage postgraduate students to choose key technical problems of enterprises as thesis topics, build a school-enterprise joint talent training mode featuring "ordering", and improve the fit between talent training and social needs. The third is to build a new scientific research organization model with high-quality development as the goal.Implement the cultivation plan of scientific research innovation team, create a new model of "team+",and encourage more than 50 young teachers who have joined in recent years and have strong academic potential to join 14 innovative talent teams such as high-performance polymer materials technology in Guizhou Province, so as to effectively revitalize scientific research resources. Focus on cutting-edge innovative research, create a new model of "discipline+",break down barriers between colleges and disciplines, and set up interdisciplinary research teams such as intelligent perception of crop diseases in mountainous areas of Guizhou Province and scientific and technological innovation talent teams for accurate use of pesticides to promote the integration and innovation of scientific research.

　　Strengthen the construction of talent team.The first is to increase the introduction of high-tech talents. Put forward the working goal of "national talents will achieve a breakthrough of 100 people in 2025", decompose the task of introducing national talents into key disciplines and related secondary units, regularly follow up the promotion of talent introduction in each unit every month, and strive to build a high-level and high-quality scientific research team. In the past two years, 32 national talents and nearly 200 excellent doctors have been introduced. The second is to open a green channel for high-level talents. In view of the fact that some of the leading talents to be introduced are nearly 60 years old, we will actively strive for policy support, and on the basis of strict quality and procedures, we will raise the enrollment age of leading talents who are in good health and have not yet gone through retirement procedures from 60 years old to 63 years old, thus successfully solving the upper age limit of leading talents. The third is to increase the cultivation of key talents. Invite experts from the National Natural Science Foundation to give special guidance and training to academic backbones in the aspects of project application writing and application, so as to enhance their ability to undertake national projects and jointly tackle key problems. Organize mobilization meetings for project declaration, lectures on scientific research integrity, lectures and guidance by well-known experts outside the school and other training activities for young researchers. For newly introduced and trained doctors, we will independently select topics in the field of natural science to carry out innovative basic research and applied basic research, give scientific research funding, and fully support the growth of new academic seedlings.

　　Do a good job in scientific research services.The first is to streamline the scientific research management process. Adhering to the principle of "let information and data run more and teachers run less errands", we will upgrade the school’s scientific research information system, build an integrated information platform integrating data collection and analysis, and realize information resources and data sharing. Optimize project management, examination and approval procedures and reimbursement procedures, continuously streamline work links, and reduce teachers’ transactional burden. The second is to equip with strong scientific research assistants. Each college and scientific research institution is equipped with a scientific research secretary to build a communication bridge between the school’s scientific research department and teachers to ensure that information is conveyed and tasks are implemented in the first time. According to the needs of scientific research work in the college, we employ scientific research assistants to assist the expert research group to promote patent application, data measurement, laboratory instrument management and maintenance, and let experts concentrate on scientific research. The third is to build a strong experimental platform. The Measures for the Administration of Full-time and Double-employed Personnel of the State Key Laboratory of Public Big Data jointly established by the Ministry of Provincial Affairs (for Trial Implementation) was issued, and a leading group for the reorganization of the State Key Laboratory of Public Big Data, headed by the secretary and the principal, was set up to focus on integrating resources and building a strong national laboratory. Regularly update large-scale scientific research instruments and equipment to enhance the accuracy and stability of experimental results and consolidate the basic guarantee for improving scientific research efficiency. In the past three years, 514 million yuan worth of new scientific research equipment has been added, and a high-quality full-time experimental team of 343 people has been equipped.

　　The vegetation is lush, the rice is fragrant, and it goes to Duanyang.

　　The Dragon Boat Festival, a traditional festival that has lasted for thousands of years, bears the heavy feelings of the Chinese nation for home and country.

　　"Patriotism is the deepest and most lasting emotion in the world." "For every Chinese, patriotism is a duty and a duty, where the heart belongs and the feelings belong" … … General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has made many important expositions on patriotism, stressing the need to learn the "four histories" well and cultivate the feelings of loving the Party, patriotism and socialism.

　　This year’s Dragon Boat Festival, we are about to celebrate the centenary birthday of the Communist Party of China (CPC). The journey of a hundred years is magnificent, and the initial heart of a hundred years lasts for a long time. Let’s appreciate the profound feelings of home and country from several stories about "taste".

　　In August 1920, the first Chinese translation of the communist party Declaration was translated by Chen Wangdao and officially published in Shanghai. This booklet has guided a large number of people with lofty ideals to set up lofty ideals of communism and devote themselves to the cause of national liberation and rejuvenation, which has had an important impact on the birth of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the victory of the China Revolution.

　　In the humble woodshed, a plank was placed on two long benches as a table … … In order to translate the communist party Declaration well, Chen Wangdao, who is proficient in English and Japanese, spent several times as much energy as usual. Once, because he was too focused, he mistook the ink for brown sugar and dipped it in zongzi, and said, "It’s so sweet." This leads to a sentence: the taste of truth is very sweet.

　　On November 29th, 2012, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader told the story of Chen Wangdao’s translation of the communist party Declaration when he visited the exhibition Road to Rejuvenation.

　　△ On June 3rd, 2021, the Memorial Hall of the First National Congress of communist party, China was newly opened. The picture shows the first and second editions of the communist party Declaration in August and September, 1920.

　　Everything goes forward, and we must not forget the road we have traveled; No matter how far you go, you can’t forget the past and why you set out.

　　"Now, it is very meaningful for you to actively preach the story of the old headmaster Comrade Chen Wangdao’s pursuit of truth and spread Marxist theory. I hope you will keep doing it and do it better … …” On June 27th, 2020, the Supreme Leader wrote back to all the members of the party member Volunteer Service Team in Fudan University’s communist party Declaration Exhibition Hall, and raised ardent expectations for party member, especially the young party member.

　　Generations of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people have planted patriotic feelings, so that the red gene and revolution can be passed down from generation to generation.

　　"share the blessings with the masses, share the difficulties, have salt with salt, and have no salt with light." On February 20, 2021, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed at the mobilization meeting of Party history study and education that it is necessary to educate and guide the whole party to deeply understand the nature and purpose of the party, insist on doing everything for the people and relying on the people, always put the people in the highest position in their hearts and take the people’s yearning for a better life as their goal.

　　At that time, the Kuomintang reactionaries imposed an economic blockade on the Central Soviet Area in an attempt to prevent "a grain of rice, a pinch of salt and a spoonful of water" from entering the Soviet Area.

　　In the face of difficulties, the villagers frequently resorted to clever tricks, either breaking through the joints of the bamboo poles and loading salt, or soaking clothes with salt water, or even pretending to be beggars, and simply transported salt to the Soviet area. The villagers stepped over many obstacles and risked their lives to help the Red Army out of difficulties. The reason is that the Red Army insists that "salt is the same as salt, and no salt is the same as light" and vows that "as long as the Red Army has salt to eat, the dishes and bowls of ordinary people must be salty".

　　In the winter of 1928, the Red Army seized salt from local tyrants and distributed it to the villagers. Li Shangfa, a villager, was given salt, so he didn’t want to eat it and wanted to leave it to the Red Army. In order to prevent this precious salt jar from falling into the enemy’s hands, he quietly buried the salt jar in the tree hole behind his house. This hiding is 31 years.

　　△ At the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Museum, Li Qiude introduced the salt cans donated by his grandfather Li Shangfa.

　　Today, this brown clay pot is quietly displayed in Jinggangshan Revolutionary Museum, and the salt in it has turned black and crystallized.

　　"Salt is the same as salt, and no salt is the same as light", which vividly explains the initial mission of communist party people and profoundly demonstrates the flesh-and-blood ties between our party and the people.

　　Frogs sing and birds sing, and rice flowers are fragrant. In April, 2018, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to Nanfan Scientific and Research Breeding Base during an inspection tour in Hainan and had a cordial conversation with Academician Yuan Longping and other agricultural scientists and technicians.

　　The general secretary said earnestly that more than one billion people have to eat, which is China’s biggest national condition. Improved varieties play a key role in promoting grain production. We must make up our minds to develop China’s seed industry, pay close attention to cultivating excellent varieties with independent intellectual property rights, and ensure national food security from the source.

　　Enjoy the cool dream under the grain, one rice and one life. Yuan Longping fought for the cause of hybrid rice all his life until the last moment.

　　The Supreme Leader stressed that our best memorial to Comrade Yuan Longping is to learn from his noble qualities of loving the Party, the motherland and the people, his firm belief, his perseverance, his courage to innovate and his simplicity, and his noble demeanor of taking the needs of the motherland and the people as his own responsibility, devoting himself to the motherland and the people as his goal, ploughing the fields all his life and writing scientific and technological papers on the land of the motherland in a down-to-earth manner.

　　△ On May 14th, 2021, in Nanfan Public Experimental Base, Yazhou District, Sanya City, Hainan Province, the combine harvester was harvesting "Chaoyouqian" hybrid rice.

　　Innovation is the first driving force for development.

　　On May 28th, 2021, the Supreme Leader emphasized at the Academician Conference of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Tenth National Congress of China Association for Science and Technology: "Practice has proved that China’s independent innovation is promising! The vast number of scientific and technological workers in our country have great achievements! With the spirit of keeping pace with the times, the courage of innovation and perseverance, the vast number of scientific and technological workers in China should face the world’s scientific and technological frontier, the main battlefield of the economy, the major needs of the country, and people’s lives and health, grasp the general trend, seize the opportunities, face problems directly, face difficulties, shoulder the heavy responsibility entrusted by the times, and strive to achieve high-level scientific and technological self-reliance! "

　　"Chang ‘e V" realized the sampling and return of extraterrestrial objects, "Tianwen-1" started the Mars exploration, "Haidou I" completed the 10,000-meter sea trial, "Endeavor" successfully sat down, Beidou satellite navigation system was fully opened, China Space Station and core module were successfully launched, and 5G mobile communication technology took the lead in realizing large-scale application & HELIP; … On the journey of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, generation after generation of scientists are concerned about the motherland and the people, fearless and selfless, and have made great contributions to the progress of science and technology, the improvement of people’s lives and the development of the Chinese nation.

　　Cultivate the feelings of home and country and continue the spiritual blood. Hone your heart for a hundred years, and build up your strength.

Cross-border e-commerce is an opportunity. Thanks to the rapid rise of Internet business, more and more people have recognized online shopping. The rules of online shopping platform have been greatly improved to standardize the online transaction process. Governments have also seen the future economic development direction and encouraged enterprises to invest resources to develop Internet infrastructure and logistics facilities. In short, cross-border e-commerce has become an indispensable part of global business.

1. What impact does cross-border e-commerce have on global business?

Cross-border e-commerce can become the representative of Internet business, which has had an unimaginable influence on global trade for a long time. Just as there were basically no imported products in China before, few people were able to use imported products, but the trend of economic globalization began in the 1980s, and foreign capital and products entered the markets of various countries at will, enriching the lives of local people. However, the traditional trade route was difficult, and because of the high tariffs, It is also necessary to pay value-added tax and consumption tax. Many imported products have become luxury goods overnight, but they have changed hands from cheap products to luxury goods through multiple companies. This trade method is only suitable for brand channel providers, and enterprises that do not need special channels can completely benefit consumers, so that products can truly become the welfare of consumers.

The emergence of the Internet in the 1990s has enabled business to find a new platform, and business can be done all over the world quickly.

What impact does cross-border e-commerce have on global business?

First, cross-border e-commerce has turned "global selling, global buying" from a myth into a reality. Good business actually means that the more convenient it is, the more development potential it has. Cross-border e-commerce can make it easy for people living in Britain to buy goods made in the United States on the other side of the ocean without leaving Britain, and it can make it easy for people living in the United States to buy goods made in China without leaving the United States. Besides global buying, they can also sell French-made perfumes and cosmetics to the United States through cross-border e-commerce. You can also sell clothes made in China to the UK through cross-border e-commerce, and cross-border e-commerce uses the Internet to efficiently sell goods from manufacturing countries to demanding countries, thus realizing long-distance and high-efficiency trading.

Second, the rise of cross-border e-commerce has given birth to a number of emerging cross-border industries. In particular, the global logistics industry has developed rapidly. Cross-border e-commerce does not exist independently. It needs industrial support, such as delivering goods to foreign customers and passing through international logistics. The fastest way of international logistics is air transportation, which requires customs declaration in the destination country and finally delivery to customers. Logistics plays an important role in cross-border e-commerce transactions, as well as cross-border payment. It can ensure the safety of foreign customers’ funds and sellers’ funds, as well as intellectual property certification services. Trademark registration and VAT tax number registration are indispensable for cross-border e-commerce business. Certification must be done before platform stores operate to protect their brands from infringement. These emerging cross-border industries have developed very rapidly, thus continuing to promote the development of cross-border e-commerce.

Third, the rapid growth of cross-border e-commerce has brought tax revenue to governments all over the world, and also solved a large number of jobs, especially young people are very fond of Internet careers. In the past five years, the global cross-border e-commerce transaction volume has shown double-digit growth, especially some manufacturing countries have made great profits during the development period of cross-border e-commerce. Some mainstream cross-border e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, eBay, wish and AliExpress have great market environment potential, and manufactured products in underdeveloped areas can use these cross-border e-commerce platforms to obtain high profit returns.

2. What are the global policies for cross-border e-commerce?

The emergence of cross-border e-commerce is not only the result of market choice, but also the result of governments’ efforts to encourage the development of cross-border e-commerce. Without the platform technology of cross-border e-commerce, there would be no well-being of people around the world. Let’s take a look at how some mainstream market countries in the world develop cross-border e-commerce. Xiaobian has classified and summarized:

(1) On May 16, 2013, the United States passed the Market Fairness Act, which levied sales tax on cross-border e-commerce buyers. No tax was levied on goods below $200, and States levied sales tax on online retailers with annual sales of more than $1 million, and exempted tariffs on online transactions of intangible goods. These tax policies are encouraging local enterprises to actively develop cross-border e-commerce.

(2) Britain’s import declaration policy is loose. In Britain, which is in the predicament of Brexit, the British government encourages goods from other countries to transit to Britain. According to the Daily Mail survey, 80% of British netizens often shop online. The British government attaches great importance to the development of its own e-commerce market.

(3) In 1998, the European Union began to levy value-added tax on e-commerce and business tax on suppliers who provide online sales and services. In 1999, the European Commission announced the tax standards for online transactions, and no new tax or additional tax was levied. The European Union has formulated a tax system since the rise of e-commerce, without increasing the tax burden on online retailers.

(4) In 1998, Japan announced the basic guidelines for e-commerce activities, emphasizing the principles of fairness, tax neutrality and tax simplification in taxation to avoid double taxation and tax evasion.

(5) On March 7, 2015, the State Council agreed to set up China (Hangzhou) cross-border electronic commerce Comprehensive Experimental Zone, and on January 6, 2016, the State Council set up a number of cross-border electronic commerce Comprehensive Experimental Zones in 12 cities including Ningbo, Tianjin, Shanghai, Chongqing, Hefei, Zhengzhou, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Dalian, Qingdao, Shenzhen and Suzhou. On August 7, 2018, the State Council established cross-border electronic commerce Comprehensive in 22 cities including Beijing, Hohhot, Shenyang, Changchun, Harbin, Nanjing, Nanchang, Wuhan, Changsha, Nanning, Haikou, Guiyang, Kunming, Xi ‘an, Lanzhou, Xiamen, Tangshan, Wuxi, Weihai, Zhuhai, Dongguan and Yiwu. Up to now, 35 cross-border electronic commerce pilot zones have been set up in China, which is enough to show the support of the China government for cross-border e-commerce.

Third, what magical commercial power does Amazon have to achieve the largest platform for cross-border e-commerce

The development of Amazon is a shortened history of e-commerce in the world, catching up with the emerging Internet. Apart from the promotion of the Internet tide, there are also Amazon’s own reasons. Let’s talk about what magical business power Amazon has to achieve the largest platform for cross-border e-commerce, such as:

(1) The founder of Amazon has a unique vision and sees opportunities for e-commerce to surpass physical business in the future. Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, just started his business and chose to use the Internet to sell books. Because books are a standard commodity, they are very suitable for online sales, so books have become a golden key to open the online retail market. At that time, Bezos saw that the online book market was far greater than the physical book market, and dared to make a bet to develop the online book retail market.

(2) Amazon saw the value of the Internet virtual community earlier, allowing sellers and buyers to communicate on the e-commerce platform, so that they could evaluate the goods. Later, the Prime membership system evolved, which greatly protected the rights and interests of online shopping users and spread the reputation of Amazon.

(3) Amazon saw the potential of cloud computing and the essence of Internet business during the period of platform growth. The platform must rely on powerful cloud service capabilities and ensure the security of every transaction. Amazon’s Excellence in technology has enabled Amazon to become the world’s largest e-commerce platform. (Source: Everyday Cross-border)
