Experts and scholars praised ＂Protecting the Liberation of the West＂： Breaking through the circle and creating a new benchmark for vegan documentary programs

　　CCTV News:"Guarding the Liberation of the West" is a network audio-visual program that is grounded, steaming, truly reflecting the real life of society, objectively showing the spiritual and ideological state of contemporary China people and promoting the positive energy of society. On December 29th, the documentary program "Guarding the Liberation of the West" was held in Beijing. Zhu Yannan, director of the Development Research Center of the State Administration of Radio and Television, spoke highly of the communication effect and value effect of the program with five attributes. At the same time, he pointed out that in order to be successful, a positive energy program needs to consider "two legs": starting from politics, starting from the market, putting the truth into life and expressing the main theme well.

　　Since its broadcast in September 2019, "Protecting the Liberation West" has received much attention and praise. The total broadcast volume of the 10 programs only exceeded 38 million on the first broadcast platform, and the total number of comments and barrage from netizens was 630,000. Douban scored 8.6, and bilibili scored as high as 9.8, which was rated as "2019 Treasure Documentary" by netizens; The Central Political and Legal Committee, the Ministry of Public Security, the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League and other competent departments concentrated on the program, and mainstream media such as People’s Daily, Guangming Daily and CCTV also gave high praise.

　　Let young people shout "I want to be a policeman" in succession, which is called "Treasure Documentary" by netizens in 2019. The popularity of "Guarding the Liberation of the West" is the result of the joint efforts of Changsha Public Security Bureau, bilibili, Zhongguang Natural Selection and other forces. With the full support of Changsha Public Security Bureau, a film crew of more than 40 people settled in the police station and recorded with the police 24 hours a day for more than three months, so that the most authentic image of grassroots policemen could be presented; Bilibili’s deep cultivation of young audience psychology, coupled with its young platform attributes and unique interactivity, has made it a hot topic to attract "tap water"; For the first time, Zhongguang Natural Selection tried the younger expression of positive energy content, innovated and upgraded the production techniques, and approached young people through the forms of "secondary element" and "network sense".

　　At this seminar, the program’s creative staff, relevant leaders, experts and scholars from the media industry gathered together to have a warm sharing and in-depth discussion around the theme of "Exploration and innovation of the documentary program of police observation in the new era". During the meeting, the guests fully affirmed the innovative expression of the theme of police affairs in Guarding the Liberation of the West.

　　"This column and program are deeply loved by young people through human expression and humorous language. This is its greatest success. " Li Tonghua, director of the Ideological and Political Work Department of the Press and Publicity Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, said that the program broke through the mainstream expression of traditional police themes, broke through the ungrounded voice of traditional public security propaganda, and played a positive role in the public security police propaganda work in the new era.

　　"There is a natural sensitivity to real things and real people." Wang Qiu He, an expert from Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China Information Bureau, has many years’ experience as a journalist. He spoke highly of this police documentary program from the perspective of social value, and thought that the program had a demonstration effect on the police in police stations to solve typical and complicated daily problems, and was of significance to the general audience in popularizing the law.

　　"This program has a good sense of network. From this perspective, it has attracted everyone to actively voice, set topics, and also confront other netizens." Cao Yunxia, deputy director of the Audio-visual New Media Research Department of the Network Department of the State Administration of Radio and Television, praised the "network feeling" of the program from the aspects of program arrangement and program form.

　　Experts attending the meeting agreed that Guarding the Liberation of the West has built a harmonious relationship between the police and the people, produced a positive effect in promoting social stability, vividly explained the role of the media industry in "national social governance", and is a micro-practice of the spirit of "modernizing the national governance system and governance capacity" and "upholding and improving the social governance system of co-construction, co-governance and sharing" implemented at the grassroots level at the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee.

　　"Choose the right platform, choose the right audience, and choose the right production method." "True, close and young!" Zeng Xiong, director of Changsha Radio and Television Station and chairman of Zhongguang Tianze Media Co., Ltd. further stated: "Guarding the Liberation of the West" has shaped and spread the image of grassroots policemen in the new era, fully played the role of cultural self-confidence in showing the image of the city and the people’s spirit, and successfully launched the first shot of the "guardian" series IP. In the future, we will continue to focus on the "uniform system", further lay out "guardian" themes such as public security, fire fighting and medical care, and spread more grassroots stories of China that carry forward the spirit of the times and highlight mainstream values.

Can the burden on patients be reduced after medical reform？ The Health Planning Commission released a conference to dispel doubts.

　　BEIJING, Beijing, May 12 (Shang Qi) The General Office of the State Council recently issued the "Key Tasks for Deepening the Reform of Medical and Health System in 2017", which clarified 70 key tasks that need to be done well this year and aroused social concern.

　　How much is the government going to spend on health care this year? What are the requirements for canceling drug addition in public hospitals? Can it really reduce the burden on patients? How to solve the drug shortage problem that people are concerned about?

　　In response to many questions, on the morning of the 11th, the National Health and Family Planning Commission held a special press conference in Beijing to respond one by one.

　　How much is the government going to spend on health care this year?

　　— — The national budget for medical and health expenditure is 1.4 trillion yuan.

　　The problem of "expensive medical treatment" has always been concerned by the society, and some media have pointed out that medical reform needs a lot of financial support.

　　At the press conference on the 11th, Song Qichao, deputy director of the Social Security Department of the Ministry of Finance, responded that all levels of finance will continue to regard health care as the key area of financial support in accordance with the spirit of last year’s National Health and Wellness Conference and the overall work deployment of the State Council’s medical reform this year, and increase investment to support various key tasks of medical reform.

　　He revealed that in 2017, the national financial medical and health expenditure budget was 1,404.4 billion yuan, 4.4 times that of 2008 before the start of medical reform, 5.1% higher than that of 2016, and 1.9 percentage points higher than that of the national fiscal expenditure budget in the same period. The proportion of medical and health expenditure in the national fiscal expenditure increased to 7.2%.

　　Among them, the central government’s medical and health expenditure budget is 398.2 billion yuan, 4.7 times that of 2008 before the start of medical reform, 7.7% higher than that of 2016, and 1.6 percentage points higher than that of the central government’s expenditure budget in the same period.

　　Song Qichao emphasized that medical reform funds are the "life-saving money" of the masses. The financial department attaches great importance to the supervision of medical reform funds and will further intensify its work to ensure the safe, standardized and effective use of funds.

　　How do patients feel about canceling the drug addition?

　　— — Let the overall medical burden of ordinary people not increase.

　　The core task of public hospital reform is to break the mechanism of supplementing medicine with medicine and establish a new operating mechanism of public hospitals. The key to getting rid of medicine is to cancel the drug addition.

　　Then, can patients feel the changes after the drug addition is cancelled?

　　In this regard, Liang Wannian, full-time deputy director of the State Council Medical Reform Office and director of the Department of Physical Reform of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, said at the press conference that the main sources of compensation for public hospitals now include government subsidies, medical service charges and drug bonus income. The reform is to remove the drug bonus income. If there is no comprehensive reform, the cancellation of the drug bonus will inevitably affect the normal operation of the hospital, as well as the development of the hospital and the mobilization of the enthusiasm of medical staff.

　　He said, "The key point of this reform is that after the cancellation of the bonus, the hospital can operate in a benign way, and the enthusiasm of medical staff can be effectively mobilized, and the overall medical burden of the people will not increase, and the medical insurance fund will be able to bear and sustainable."

　　To this end, Liang Wannian introduced that "changing cages for birds" is a system reform that has been implemented in the reform of urban public hospitals.

　　It is reported that the so-called "cage for birds" is a trilogy — — The first step is to increase the charges of medical services through the price mechanism after the public hospitals cancel the drug addition; The second step is to raise the project price that can reflect the labor, knowledge and technology of medical staff; The third step, after raising the price of labor technology, medical insurance should be linked up. First, it should be included in the reimbursement scope of medical insurance. Second, the overall improved part should be reimbursed as much as possible, so that the overall cost burden of ordinary people will not rise.

　　Liang Wannian added, "One of the most important reasons for doctors’ unreasonable diagnosis and treatment is that the price system is not straightened out and distorted to some extent. That is to say, the current medical service price system can not fully reflect the labor value of medical staff’s knowledge and technology, so we must straighten out the price mechanism and reverse the unreasonable situation."

　　What should I do if all public hospitals cancel the drug addition?

　　— — Hospitals under the management of the Committee and directly under the management must set an example.

　　The reporter noted that the "Key Tasks for Deepening the Reform of Medical and Health System in 2017" issued by the General Office of the State Council requires that the comprehensive reform of public hospitals should be fully implemented before the end of September 2017, and all public hospitals should cancel the drug addition (except Chinese herbal medicines).

　　"This is a hard task of medical reform in 2017", Liang Wannian pointed out at the press conference that there are 44 hospitals under the Commission of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, which are distributed in 11 cities, and there are 6 hospitals directly under the administration of state administration of traditional chinese medicine. At the same time, these 50 hospitals under the Commission and directly under the administration have been required to participate in the comprehensive reform of local public hospitals this year, and the hospitals under the Commission and directly under the administration must set an example and play a vanguard role.

　　In view of the first four batches of pilot cities for comprehensive reform of urban public hospitals, he revealed that by the end of 2017, the proportion of drugs (excluding Chinese herbal medicines) in public hospitals in the first four batches of 200 pilot cities should be controlled at around 30%, and the cost of health materials consumed in 100 yuan medical income (excluding drug income) should be reduced to less than 20 yuan.

　　He further explained that "the proportion of drugs is to control irrational drug use, and the cost of consumables for medical income of 100 yuan mainly controls the irrational use of high-value consumables."

　　In addition, county-level public hospitals have all pushed forward the reform in 2015, but Liang Wannian pointed out that "the reform is on the road, and it is not said that the reform has been completed. It is necessary to further optimize the charging structure of county-level public hospitals, so that the proportion of pharmaceutical consumables will further decline, and the proportion of labor technology prices will further increase."

　　How to solve the drug shortage problem?

　　— — A document on the supply guarantee of medicines in short supply will be published soon.

　　At the press conference, a reporter pointed out that the recent drug shortage in Guangdong has aroused social concern.

　　On May 2nd, official website, Guangdong Pharmaceutical Trading Center, issued the Announcement on the Fifth Batch of Enterprises Failing to Supply Goods according to the Contract and Not Supplying Goods in Time, which published a list of drugs covering 1,004 contracts, involving 512 specifications, 135 pharmaceutical companies and 68 drug dealers, and urged all production and distribution enterprises to supply goods in time for the varieties that failed to supply goods in time during the publicity period.

　　In this regard, Liang Wannian said frankly that the issue of drug supply guarantee has always been an important task of medical reform, and one of the five system constructions of medical reform is the construction of drug supply guarantee system.

　　He revealed that not long ago, the National Health and Family Planning Commission, together with relevant departments, specially studied the problem of ensuring the supply of medicines in short supply, and the Central Deep Reform Group also held a special meeting to review this document, which will be issued soon.

　　"On the whole, we must regard the supply guarantee of medicines in short supply as an important task of this year’s reform, and ensure that we can ensure the timely supply of medicines for ordinary people." Liang Wannian said. (End)

Harbin ＂Crazy Big Truck＂ Survey! 122 leading cadres and public officials were involved in the case.

　　　　　　 CCTV News:Recently, in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, when it comes to big trucks, it gives people the impression that they are reckless and crazy, overloading, speeding, exceeding the limit, running red lights, etc., and major traffic accidents often occur. So why are big trucks so crazy? What kind of secret is hidden behind madness?

　　　　　　 Open the network search, enter "Harbin crazy big truck", and hundreds of thousands of links pop up one after another — — "A crazy truck in Harbin ‘ Pressure explosion ’ 150-ton scale, only three days, 10 people were killed in a big truck accident, and the big truck was still crazy at night, ignoring the red light and roaring in groups.

one

　　　　　　 There are many illegal accidents such as overloading, overrun and speeding of "crazy big trucks"

　　　　　　 The reporter visited and found that the big trucks in Harbin are really crazy, and there are many problems. The most common problem is overloading. These big trucks driving in urban areas mainly haul residual soil, so why should these residual soil trucks be overloaded?　　　

　　　　　　 Zheng Xin, a staff member of the "1023" task force of the Supervision Committee of the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province, said: "Normally, the hauling price of a residual soil vehicle should be about 30 yuan/ton, and the market is vicious competition. The transportation units of these residual soil vehicles will push this price to about 20 yuan/ton, resulting in overloading of large trucks, which is more than 100%."

　　　　　　 Why does the public security traffic management department, which is mainly responsible for supervision, turn a blind eye to the fact that large trucks are so rampant and endanger the lives and property of ordinary people? Gong Bin, a staff member of the "1023" task force of the Supervision Committee of the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province, said: "If you don’t have the permission of the traffic police, it is impossible to run on the road, and you have not obtained ‘ Protection ’ It is impossible to run. "

　　　　　　 Special roads help the "crazy big truck" unimpeded.

　　　　　　 On October 23, 2017, the Supervision Committee of the Harbin Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection set up a joint task force to investigate the umbrellas behind large trucks. After half a year’s investigation and evidence collection, these umbrellas hidden behind for many years gradually surfaced.

　　　　　　 According to the clue, a man named "Erbaozi" caught the attention of the task force. This man has a complex network in the traffic police system, claiming to be the driver of Wang, deputy detachment leader of Harbin Public Security Traffic Police Detachment, Heilongjiang Province, and traveling to and from traffic police brigades in various jurisdictions to provide "so-called" care and protection for the illegal behavior of crazy trucks. After investigation, the original name of "Erbaozi" was Sun, and the one who protected him behind him was Wang, deputy detachment leader of Harbin Public Security Traffic Police Detachment. In 2014, Sun had contracted transportation projects.

　　　　　　 The suspect Sun Mou: "Write a piece of paper on the windshield of that car. At that time, the piece of Xiangfang was called Tongxiang Store, which meant that it lived in Tongxiang Store. Then this means that when it passed by, there was a jurisdiction. Xiangfang (traffic police brigade) said hello and finished talking with him. When he (police) saw this card, he basically stopped (the car)."

　　　　　　 In addition to providing protection for Sun’s motorcade, Wang also provided protection for the illegal operation of many motorcades, and personally instructed the motorcades for which he sought protection.

　　　　　　 Relevant departments in Harbin have strict regulations on the running route and running time of large trucks. Large trucks are allowed to pass from 10: 00 pm to 5: 00 the next day. For Wang’s personal instructions, as long as he shows the road signs, he can be unimpeded throughout the city and carry out unlimited transportation.

　　　　　　 So what kind of benefits will Wang get from providing protection for the illegal operation of large trucks and instructing the road? Gong Bin, a staff member of the "1023" task force of the Supervision Committee of the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province: "In 2014, Sun participated in an earthwork transportation project in Huixiong era in Xiangfang District on behalf of Wang, and got a special car insurance fee of more than 400,000. Of course, more than 200,000 of them entered Wang’s pocket."

　　　　　　 On June 1, 2018, the nangang district Court of Harbin held a public hearing to hear the case of Wang’s alleged bribery and introduction of bribery.

　　　　　　 Is it just Wang’s problem that these big trucks operate crazily and illegally? After the investigation by the task force, what is even more shocking is that on the issue of umbrella for large trucks, there are illegal, disciplinary and even criminal problems in all teams under the jurisdiction of Harbin Public Security Traffic Police Detachment in Heilongjiang Province.

　　　　　　 In 2011, Guo of Harbin contracted a construction waste transportation project. However, before the project started to transport, a police car came at the door of the construction site. In order to start the project normally, Guo found Ming, the captain of Guxiang, Harbin Public Security Traffic Police Detachment at that time, through various relationships, and prepared to send money to clear the relationship.

　　　　　　 Zheng Xin, a staff member of the "1023" task force of the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province: "(Guo) took 20,000 yuan and went to Ming’s office. At first glance, Ming said, you are hauling residual soil here. I know, but I can’t accept the money. Go back to work. In this way, Guo will get on the bridge with Ming. " Ming did not accept Guo’s money, but in order to get Ming’s care for future projects, Guo wanted to make further contact with Ming.

　　　　　　 Gong Bin, a staff member of the "1023" task force of the Supervision Committee of the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province: "In the process of drinking, Ming said such a thing. It is a long way to go to work in Guxiang and I want to buy a house here."

　　　　　　 Guo thought that he would have to ask him in the future, and he promised to buy a property near a certain unit in Ming and replace it with the house where Ming originally lived. So, with 1.1 million cash, Guo went to the sales office to pay the house payment directly, and then left the house holder under the name of Ming’s wife.

　　　　　　 Later, in addition to returning 50,000 yuan in cash to Guo, Ming paid Guo two houses in Sanya and Harbin at a price of 2.05 million yuan. Guo deducted 110 yuan paid for Ming and gave him 1 million yuan in cash. Under the "care" of Ming, more than 20 cars of Guo were always overloaded, and one car was not detained.

　　　　　　 Gong Bin, a staff member of the "1023" task force of the Supervision Committee of the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province, said: "Ming bought real estate at a low price and sold it to the bosses of these concrete companies or earthwork companies at a high price through Guo. For such a house, he exceeded the (market) price by 400,000 to 500,000 and gained his own benefits." In this way, through the above various means, in just a few years, Ming made a lot of illegal profits.

　　　　　　 The captain abused his power, lowered the punishment standard, and violated the rules and regulations.

　　　　　　 In addition, through investigation, the task force also found that the patrol brigade of Harbin Public Security Traffic Police Detachment, which can enforce the law throughout the city, also has problems in dealing with illegal acts of large trucks.

　　　　　　 Generally, the illegal overloading of truck drivers is more than 50%, and the least is more than 30%. According to the regulations, a fine of 1,000 yuan is required, and 6 points are deducted. In order not to affect the normal transportation business, illegal truck drivers will go to the traffic police team to find Li, the deputy head of the patrol brigade, and Luo, the head of the violation handling department, after receiving administrative punishment, in order to avoid punishment or mitigate punishment.

　　　　　　 After receiving the instructions from the leaders, the two policemen in the Violation Section changed the evidence of administrative compulsory measures against the illegal facts, and forged the archival materials to achieve the purpose of reducing the punishment for the traffic offenders. Relevant personnel collect benefits from illegal drivers to varying degrees. In order to protect the illegal operation of large trucks, Li also illegally used the authorization of the public security traffic police system to privately delete the illegal behavior of large trucks photographed by electronic surveillance.

　　　　　　 In recent years, when illegal large trucks are operating, some car-protecting gangs seek protection through Harbin traffic police teams, while some illegal large trucks, through squadrons under traffic police brigades in various jurisdictions, extensively weave their networks, carry out illegal interests and seek protection.

　　　　　　 Through unannounced visits, the task force found that in all areas of Harbin, there are traffic police duty points with squadrons as units, and a large number of illegal trucks pass by, and they pass by motorcades as units.

　　　　　　 Power and money collude with car protection gangs to help big trucks unimpeded.

　　　　　　 Liu Yixiu, a staff member of the "1023" task force of the Supervision Committee of the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province, said: "Car guarantors organize transportation in the name of an earthwork company and a transportation company, but there must be car guarantors behind them, and they all have to get through with the traffic police department personnel who need transportation routes and which regions are involved along the way."

　　　　　　 Among these car gangs, a man named Jiang, whose motorcade attracted the attention of the task force, turned a blind eye to most police officers on duty when there were illegal acts in the area where the motorcade passed. How did Jiang get through the relationship and let the illegal vehicles of the team be exempted from punishment? The task force found that Jiang charged a certain fee to the owner who sought to protect the car, and then paid bribes to 21 traffic police along the route of the team, ranging from 500 yuan to 10,000 yuan.

　　　　　　 Dig deep behind the umbrella through the car protection gang

　　　　　　 At the beginning of 2018, during the inspection of large trucks, the task force banned the scene of illegal large trucks, which was often followed by members of relevant car insurance gangs. This has brought many obstacles to the investigation of the case. The task force coordinated the public security and dispatched criminal investigation forces. After a large number of evidence collection, it controlled the leaders of car insurance gangs on charges of allegedly interfering in law enforcement and forced trading. Six car insurance gangs, including Sun Mou and Jiang Mou, surfaced one after another.

　　　　　　 After more than seven months of investigation, on June 26, 2018, the Supervision Committee of the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province issued a notice of discipline inspection and supervision. In response to the problem of "crazy big trucks" strongly reflected by the masses, the Supervision Committee of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection dug deep and thoroughly investigated, and destroyed six "car gangs" involved in evil, and investigated and dealt with 122 leading cadres and public officials who acted as "protective umbrellas", 11 of whom were transferred to judicial organs for legal treatment.

Trillions of Aerospace run out of a super unicorn

Original, Liu Bo, investment community

This is an epic journey to the sea of stars.

Author I Liu Bo

Report I Investment Community PEdaily

The future has arrived.

In December, the Central Economic Work Conference emphasized that next year will focus on promoting high-quality development and leading the construction of a modern industrial system with scientific and technological innovation. The conference pointed out that it is necessary to build a number of strategic emerging industries such as bio-manufacturing, commercial aerospace, and low-altitude economy, and open up new tracks for future industries such as quantum and life sciences.

As a strategic emerging industry, commercial aerospace is becoming increasingly important.

With MIIT’s disclosure, China will accelerate the development and innovation of 6G technology, and achieve commercial use around 2030. This also means that another new node of mobile communication is coming soon. In other words, 6G network will form a fully connected world of ground wireless and satellite communication integration. It is not difficult to find that satellites will play a key role in it, which also gives a number of commercial aerospace companies the opportunity to show their strength. Space-time Daoyu is the leader among them.

What is the origin of Spacetime Daoyu? Established in 2018, Spacetime Daoyu is a technology innovation enterprise under Geely Holding Group. After five years of completing the layout of the whole industrial chain covering satellite research and development, manufacturing, measurement and control, application, etc., Spacetime Daoyu has now become the first commercial aerospace enterprise in China to achieve a commercial closed loop, with a valuation of over 10 billion yuan, ranking among the top echelons of commercial aerospace unicorns.

There has always been a view in the VC/PE circle that the unknown space is the last new continent for mankind. In the words of investors, the Chinese who missed the "era of great navigation" must not miss the upcoming "era of great aerospace". This is a truly epic journey to the sea of stars.

After 10 years of preparation, commercial spaceflight has exploded

Charge out a super unicorn

Looking back at 2014, China’s commercial aerospace industry ushered in an important juncture –

The "Guiding Opinions on Innovating Investment and Financing Mechanisms in Key Areas to Encourage Social Investment" was issued, which clearly stated that "private capital should be encouraged to develop, launch and operate commercial remote sensing satellites, provide market-oriented and professional services; guide private capital to participate in the construction of satellite navigation ground application systems." Since then, China’s commercial aerospace has begun.

Then in 2018, Spacetime Daoyu was established. At that time, Spacetime Daoyu founder and CEO Wang Yang had anticipated that commercial aerospace would become a strategic emerging industry in the information age and an important driving force for the development of global technology and digital economy.

How is the quality of the Space-Time Daoyu team? According to reports, since 2000, there have been no more than 100 important satellite models in China, of which engineers from Space-Time Daoyu have participated in the completion of at least 50 satellites, and each person has complete experience in more than 5 national key satellite models.

But Wang Yang knows that a more important prerequisite than having a strong technical team is to choose the right direction and track. Looking at the commercial satellite industry chain, high thresholds, many links, and strong complexity are significant characteristics. Therefore, start-up companies focus on a certain sub-field, and few have the layout of the whole industry chain, until the emergence of space and time.

Space-Time Daoyu is positioned as a provider of aerospace information and communication infrastructure and application solutions, covering the entire industrial chain from satellite R & D, manufacturing to application. "To use a popular analogy, Huawei provides ground-based information and communication products (ICT), while Space-Time Daoyu provides space-based information and communication products (AICT), both of which are dedicated to technological innovation and commercial applications in the field of human information and communication."

The rapidly rising space-time universe has been recognized by the capital markets in just five years, and it is reported that the latest valuation has exceeded 10 billion yuan. There is no doubt that a commercial aerospace super unicorn is rushing all the way.

Look at the product early, look at the mass production in the long run

At present, satellite commercialization is entering the era of mass delivery.

Let’s take a look at a set of intuitive data – the Blue Book of China’s Aerospace Science and Technology Activities (2022) revealed that in 2022, China completed 64 launch missions and developed and launched 188 spacecraft. At present, there is still a big gap between the number of 2,067 spacecraft launched by the United States in the whole year.

At the same time, industry data show that 100,000 satellites are expected to be deployed in low-Earth orbit in the future, and China has 30,000-40,000 satellites. Under the influence of factors such as the timeliness limit of ITU frequency declaration, the continuous increase of domestic policy support, and the continuous decline in rocket launch costs and satellite manufacturing costs, the manufacturing and launch of low-orbit satellites in our country is expected to enter an "exponential" growth period in the next five years. However, there is still a gap of 90% in the annual production capacity of domestic micro-satellites. Obviously, satellite manufacturing has become a key link in the development of China’s satellite industry chain.

With the inclusion of satellite Internet in the "new infrastructure", satellite manufacturing has been forced to enter the "industrialization" stage. The traditional production model is difficult to meet the huge demand for capacity for rapid networking, and short-cycle, low-cost, and mass production have become the prerequisites for the industry to accelerate.

Spacetime Daoyu Satellite Super Factory Production Line

"Look at the product in the early stage, look at the mass production in the long run", this is a profound lesson left by the development path of new energy vehicles to the market. The reason is not difficult to understand: in the early days of a segment, the product concept and product positioning determine whether it can be successfully launched into the market, and when the product competition gradually intensifies, the mass production speed and mass production capacity determine whether it can solidly occupy the market.

In today’s era of intelligent travel with integrated heaven and earth, commercial satellites are no exception. The last word for success lies in mass production capabilities. However, it should be noted that commercial satellites still face multiple challenges in large-scale manufacturing, including complex technology, high cost, vertical integration of supply chains, and extremely high quality and reliability requirements.

Among them, the cost has become the first question in front of commercial aerospace companies. According to Morgan Stanley estimates, the manufacturing cost of Starlink satellites is 1 million US dollars/piece, and founder Musk has publicly disclosed that the cost of a single satellite can be reduced to 500,000 US dollars. In contrast, according to the Zhejiang Securities Research Report, the average cost of our country’s low-orbit communications satellites is about 30 million yuan, of which labor costs + manufacturing costs account for about 50%.

The "2022 China Commercial Aerospace Industry Investment Report" shows that since 2015, the number of domestic commercial aerospace enterprises that have been registered and effectively operated has reached 433. Obviously, if you want to break through, you have to master the word "cost", and low-cost satellite manufacturing is the top priority.

The key to low-cost and fast mass production lies in: first, modular design, improve versatility and reuse rate, and shorten the delivery cycle of satellites; second, industrial-grade component replacement and core component self-development can reduce satellite manufacturing costs and simplify the development process; third, flexible pulsation production, taking the production of automobiles as an example, flexible production lines can produce both small-size economy cars and large-size luxury cars. The same is true for flexible production satellites, which can enhance the batch production capacity of satellites.

At present, Spacetime Daoyu may be the industry’s breaker. Compared with OneWeb, which is located in the first echelon of the global commercial aerospace industry, it is learning from the Airbus Group’s aircraft production line and assembling production in an assembly line to reduce costs and increase efficiency. Relying on Geely, Spacetime Daoyu was born with automobile manufacturing genes and took the lead in building a satellite super factory. It is the world’s first satellite mass production factory that deeply integrates aerospace manufacturing and automobile manufacturing. Through satellite mass production and intelligent manufacturing, it can help the global constellation network quickly.

It is understood that the Spacetime Daoyu Satellite Super Factory draws on the large-scale mass production manufacturing models such as intelligence and automation in the automotive industry to realize the disruptive innovation of satellite mass production AIT. Through modular design, flexible production, intelligent manufacturing and other technologies, and the use of parallel production in assembly lines, the design and production cycle of satellites can be greatly reduced, while the manufacturing cost of satellites can be greatly reduced.

As a fruitful integration of engineering capabilities in the aerospace and automotive industries, the effect is equally obvious. At present, the factory has broken through the production capacity limit of traditional satellite manufacturing, and can achieve a satellite production cost reduction of about 45% per day, which helps the constellation rapid networking construction. At the same time, by adopting a flexible production method, the factory can flexibly meet the final assembly, integration and testing of satellites of different models and specifications such as communication, navigation, and remote sensing satellites, and meet the needs of different types of constellation rapid networking construction.

With its strong mass production and delivery capabilities, Spacetime Daoyu also successfully fired the first shot of "heaven". In April 2022, Spacetime Daoyu completed the development of the first orbital surface satellite of the low-orbit future travel constellation. And in June of that year, it was successfully launched into orbit with a single arrow of 9 stars at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center, becoming another milestone in the history of China’s commercial satellites.

It is reported that in addition to manufacturing satellites for the future travel constellation of Spacetime Daoyu, its satellite super factory is also providing satellite batch production and one-stop in-orbit delivery services for industry partners, helping to rapidly build China’s satellite constellation and accelerate the rapid development of the satellite industry chain.

Without a doubt, facing the challenge of global satellite large-scale manufacturing, Space-Time Daoyu has already broken the industry boundaries by fully borrowing from the mature mass manufacturing concept of automobiles, thus achieving cost reduction and efficiency increase, and promoting China’s satellite manufacturing into the era of industrialized large-scale production.

Here comes another trillion-dollar race track

As the upstream of the commercial aerospace industry chain, satellite manufacturing will benefit first, and the next stop will definitely return to the "commercial" essence.

According to iiMedia consulting data, since 2015, China’s commercial aerospace market has grown rapidly, with an annual growth rate of more than 20% from 2017 to 2024. At the same time, according to Tabor Think Tank, the size of China’s commercial aerospace market will reach 2.80 trillion yuan by 2025. How can start-up companies get a share of the pie?

As we all know, commercial aerospace is a hard technology. In order to survive and develop, it is necessary to break the tradition and achieve disruptive innovation. And innovation is not only technology, but also business models and mechanisms. Therefore, in addition to building business systems based on satellite constellations, there is a need for practical commercial scenarios, which must be enough to cover the huge constellation construction costs.

More generally, for commercial aerospace, if technology is the foundation, then the construction of the industrial chain and the construction of the business ecosystem are the driving force for the development of the industry. Only when technology and business "walk on two legs" can enterprises go further.

Wang Yang has previously mentioned that the market-oriented mechanism has put forward higher requirements for private commercial aerospace, not only to achieve technological innovation, but also to make aerospace technology serve human production and life, and promote the economic development of human society. "Policies, market demand and other favorable factors are promoting our country’s commercial aerospace from manufacturing-driven to an era of comprehensive application traction."

Looking back at the history of commercial aerospace development, there are many losers. For example, Motorola’s Iridium plan, which lacks a correct judgment of the development potential of mobile communications, has suffered bankruptcy. In addition to Iridium, OneWeb also filed for bankruptcy in 2020 due to the impact of the epidemic on the normal operation of the company, unable to obtain financing. The reason is that due to the lack of large-scale commercial application scenarios, it is difficult to support its huge constellation construction and operating costs.

Because of this, what the Spacetime Daoyu team is doing is a commercial practice, not a scientific engineering experiment. What they want to do is to make the application of aerospace technology more simple and friendly, adapt to user requests, and make products more affordable. To be more straightforward, it is affordable for everyone. To this end, Spacetime Daoyu has made great efforts in satellite applications and has become the first commercial aerospace enterprise in China to achieve commercial closed-loop.

Among the many application scenarios, mobile phone satellite communication is detonating the industry trend. In recent years, Huawei and Apple have launched mobile phones with satellite communication functions. The reason why these consumer products can directly connect to satellites is to conform to the upcoming 6G era. 6G will have a new application scenario of "ubiquitous connection", and satellites will enable mobile communication to truly realize all-terrain and all-space three-dimensional coverage connection. CCTV previously reported that according to incomplete statistics, as of September 2023, the size of our country’s satellite communication market is around 80 billion yuan.

Space-time Dao Yu has also been forward-looking layout.

With its excellent satellite mass manufacturing capabilities, Space-Time Daoyu will have the ability to form network constellations faster than other commercial aerospace companies. They are building the world’s first low-orbit future travel constellation to serve the future travel ecosystem by deploying the whole orbit, and it is the world’s first commercial communication, navigation and remote sensing integrated constellation. The first orbit has been deployed, and nine satellites have been in orbit for more than one year. It plans to launch 02 sets of satellites in the constellation in early 2024 to complete the deployment of the second orbital plane. In 2025, the launch and deployment of 72 satellites in the first phase of the constellation will be completed, providing satellite application services for global users.

In addition, the "Space-Time Daoyu – Peking University Advanced Communication Joint Laboratory" was jointly established with Peking University, and the two sides are committed to conquering the core technology in the future communication field – while the same-frequency full-duplex communication technology. The satellite network is an important part of the future 6G. The two sides will jointly develop full-duplex communication low-orbit satellites, promote the on-orbit verification of this technology, synchronously promote the formulation of industry standards, and accelerate the implementation of industrial applications.

Of course, in the era of intelligent travel with the integration of heaven and earth, the car is the scene that cannot be ignored the most. Space-time Daoyu also gave a bright transcript – it is the first domestic aerospace product to achieve the standard R & D and mass production of vehicles, and the first commercial aerospace company to realize the large-scale application of vehicle satellite communication and high-precision positioning at the same time.

Specifically, Space-Time Daoyu innovatively introduced satellite communication services into new energy mass-produced vehicles, and launched the world’s first mass-produced satellite communication passenger car in conjunction with Polar Krypton to provide two-way satellite messaging and satellite call services. Its satellite-based high-precision positioning service (PPP-RTK) also achieved the world’s first large-scale on-board. During the Hangzhou Asian Games, Space-Time Daoyu provided high-precision positioning, satellite communication, and remote sensing technical support. By equipping nearly 2,000 officially designated vehicles for the Asian Games with Space-Time Daoyu high-precision positioning products and services, it realized accurate vehicle management and scheduling, and the cumulative guarantee mileage exceeded 2.02 million kilometers.

For the space-time universe that aspires to space, the pace of exploration cannot be stopped. Looking to the future, commercial aerospace is a global industry, so domestic commercial aerospace enterprises must take the initiative to go out and improve their international competitiveness. Only in this way can we promote the globalization of China’s commercial aerospace industry.

In fact, many commercial space companies and even countries around the world do not have the ability to independently build satellite constellations and carry out satellite internet services. Therefore, if Chinese commercial space companies can actively expand overseas business by building their own constellations, they will inevitably achieve new business growth.

It will not only provide satellite application data services for SCO countries and countries along the "Belt and Road Initiative", but also cooperate with Malaysian telecom operator Altel to promote high-tech research and development and system application, accelerate the implementation of solutions in smart ports, smart agriculture and other fields, and promote the globalization of satellite applications.

From building its own constellation and ground systems, to mass manufacturing of satellites, large-scale application of satellites, and rapid expansion of overseas markets. The purpose of Space-Time Daoyu is to close the loop of commercial applications in the aerospace industry, from completing the layout of the entire industrial chain to having continuous self-hematopoietic capabilities.

Today, Spacetime Daoyu has formed a R & D system with Shanghai Research Institute as the core and R & D centers in Nanjing, Xi’an and Wuhan as the support; has two business operation headquarters in Guangzhou and Qingdao; established business centers in Beijing and New York; established a satellite super factory in Taizhou, Zhejiang as a satellite manufacturing base; and laid out a global constellation measurement and operation control network. At the same time, we have implemented the global "Belt and Road Initiative" strategy and continued to promote the business implementation of "Belt and Road Initiative" countries and regions such as the Middle East and South East Asia.

Write at the end

Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, the Soviet rocket pioneer, once said: "The earth is the cradle of mankind, but mankind cannot be bound to the cradle forever, but will constantly explore new celestial bodies and spaces, and will begin to carefully penetrate the atmosphere and then conquer the solar system."

Looking back at history, in 1957, the world’s first man-made earth satellite was successfully launched, marking the official start of the human space age; and then in 1970, our country’s first satellite "Dongfanghong No. 1" was launched, playing music in space, and creating countless people’s indelible memories; today, a group of new space blood, like space and time, are still embarking on an unknown journey in the vast universe.

As Wang Yang, CEO of Spacetime Daoyu, said, "Aerospace is the most romantic industry, and it carries the dream of human beings to explore the universe."

　　[Case summary] Ximou Co., Ltd. and Ximou (China) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter collectively referred to as Ximou Company) are the rights holders of the registered trademarks of "Siemens" and "SIEMENS". The two trademarks are registered on washing machines and other goods. After long-term use and vigorous promotion by Ximou Company, they have already gained a high reputation. Ningbo Qimou Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. and other "Shanghai Siemens Electric Appliance Co., Ltd." names to be registered overseas are widely used as commercial logos in the washing machine products, product outer packaging and related publicity activities it produces and sells. Ximou Company believes that Ningbo Qimou Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. infringes its exclusive right to use its registered trademark and constitutes unfair competition, so it sued the court. The court of first instance held that the alleged infringement of Ningbo Qimou Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. did not constitute trademark infringement, but constituted unfair competition, and ruled that Ningbo Qimou Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. immediately stopped the infringement and compensated 100 million yuan for economic losses and 163,000 yuan for reasonable expenses. Ningbo Qimou Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. refused to accept it and filed an appeal. The Supreme People’s Court held that Ningbo Qimou Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. knowingly knew the popularity of the "Siemens" and "SIEMENS" trademarks, and deliberately used "Shanghai Siemens Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. on washing machine products, causing confusion and misunderstanding among consumers, which constituted trademark infringement; the use of the logo in product packaging and publicity activities also constitutes unfair competition, and should be liable for compensation. Regarding the amount of compensation, although the existing evidence is difficult to determine the actual loss of Ximou Company or the infringement profit of Ningbo Qimou Electric Co., Ltd., it is sufficient to determine that the infringement profit of Ningbo Qimou Electric Co., Ltd. has obviously exceeded the maximum limit of statutory compensation of 5 million yuan. In this case, considering that Ningbo Qimou Electric Co., Ltd. refused to provide financial information related to the infringement, which constituted evidence obstruction, the court of first instance referred to the data in the media report that the total annual sales of Ningbo Qimou Electric Co., Ltd. was 1.50 billion yuan, and based on the relevant facts of the case, calculated the sales proportion of the accused infringing products according to one-fifteenth, and then determined that it was not improper for Ningbo Qimou Electric Co., Ltd. to bear the amount of compensation of 100 million yuan. The Supreme People’s Court ruled: reject the appeal,
　　[Typical significance] The 2nd-round Moderation judgment in this case strictly applies the system of providing evidence and obstructing the infringer who deliberately fails to provide evidence and hinders the people’s court from determining the facts of the case, and makes an unfavorable handling method and judgment in accordance with the law. This case fully reflects the judicial attitude of the people’s court to strictly protect intellectual property rights, and has effectively cracked down on the behavior of maliciously clinging to the goodwill of well-known trademarks, which has played an important role in purifying the market order and creating a good business environment.
　　II. Case involving trademark infringement and unfair competition of "Lafite"
　　Case of infringement of trademark rights and unfair competition between Laimou Winery and Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. [Supreme People’s Court (2022) Supreme Court Civil Court verdict No. 313]
　　[Case summary] La Winery is the owner of the "LAFITE" trademark and "CHATEAU LAFITE ROTHSCHILD" trademark (hereinafter collectively referred to as the trademarks involved), and the two trademarks are registered on alcoholic beverage products. The trademarks involved in the case have a high reputation after long-term use, and "LAFITE" and "Lafite" have established a solid relationship. On April 1, 2005, Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. applied for the registration of the "Lafite Manor" trademark on wine and other products. Since then, Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. and others have used logos such as "Lafite Manor" and "LAFEI MANOR" in the process of producing, importing and selling wine, and have promoted them on websites and trading documents. On December 23, 2016, the Supreme People’s Court issued a retrial judgment in favor of the trademark administrative department to revoke the trademark of "Lafite Manor". Lafite Winery then sued Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. and other seven defendants to the court. The court of first instance held that Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. and other seven defendants constituted trademark infringement and unfair competition, ordered them to stop infringement, and applied punitive damages. Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. refused to accept it and appealed. The Supreme People’s Court held that in the process of applying for registration and using the "Lafite Manor" trademark, Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. had malicious intent to cling to the trademark involved in the case of Lafite Winery, and did not have a good faith interest in trust. Its use of the "Lafite Manor" "LAFEI MANOR" logo constituted trademark infringement, and exaggerating the historical heritage and popularity of "Lafite Manor" wine in the publicity constituted false propaganda. Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. and other infringement malice was obvious, and the infringement circumstances were serious. According to the request of Lafite Winery, punitive compensation was applied, and Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. was ordered to compensate Nanjing Jinmou Winery Co., Ltd. for the total economic loss and reasonable expenses of 79.17 million yuan.
　　The judgment in this case points out that trademark registrants who have the intention to cling to their trademarks should not be protected, which is of positive significance for advocating market players to participate in market competition in a sincere and good faith manner, and highlights the strength and determination of the people’s court to severely punish "near famous brands" and "free riders".
　　Administrative disputes involving the invalidation of "facial recognition" invention patents
　　Beijing Zhongmou Technology Co., Ltd. and the State Intellectual Property Office, Apple Computer Trading (Shanghai) Company Invalid Patent Administrative Dispute Case [Supreme People’s Court (2021) Supreme Law Zhixing End No. 556 administrative court verdict]
　　[Case summary] Beijing Zhongzhong Technology Co., Ltd. is the patentee of the invention patent with patent number 200480036270.2 and the name is "a method for obtaining face images and facial recognition method and system". Apple Computer Trading (Shanghai) Company filed a request for invalidation of the patent right involved in the case. Beijing Zhongzhong Technology Co., Ltd. submitted the revised text of the patent claim during the examination of the invalidation of the patent right involved in the case. The State Intellectual Property Office did not accept some of the revised claims. It only made an examination decision based on the accepted part, determined that the patent involved was not creative, and declared all of them invalid. Beijing Zhongzhong Technology Co., Ltd. refused to accept it and filed a lawsuit with the Beijing Intellectual Property Court, but was not supported. Beijing Zhonghao Technology Co., Ltd. refused to accept it and appealed on the grounds that all modified claims should be accepted. The Supreme People’s Court 2nd-round Moderation held that in the administrative procedure of patent right confirmation, the maximum scope of modification of claims shall not exceed the "scope of information" stipulated in Article 33 of the Patent Law and the "scope of protection" stipulated in the first paragraph of Article 69 of the Implementing Regulations of the Patent Law. The review of whether the modification method of a certain claim belongs to "further limitation" shall only be based on whether the modified claim fully contains all the technical features of the modified claim, whether the modified claim adds technical features to the modified claim, and whether the added technical features are recorded in other claims in the original claims. Modifications to claims in administrative procedures for patent right confirmation should generally be limited to responding to the reasons for invalidation; those that reconstruct the reality of the claims in the name of overcoming the defects referred to in the reasons for invalidation may not be accepted. In this case, claims 4 and 7 are essentially the original claims and are the natural basis for examination; the technical solutions citing claims 4 and 7 in the revised claims 8-10 should also be accepted; the revised claims 11 and 12 are not in response to the modification of the reasons for invalidation, and it is not inappropriate for the State Intellectual Property Office not to accept them. Therefore, the judgment revokes the first-instance judgment and the decision to be sued, and the State Intellectual Property Office makes a new decision.
　　[Typical meaning] This case clarifies the requirements for the extent, method, and purpose of modification of claims in the administrative procedure of patent confirmation, especially the identification criteria for "further limiting" modification, which is of reference significance for the grasp of the legal standards for modifying claims in the administrative procedure of patent confirmation.
　　IV. Infringement dispute involving new varieties of corn plants "Danyu No. 405"
　　Liaoning Danye Science and Technology joint stock company and Linghai Agricultural Science and Technology Co., Ltd. and Qingdao Lian Agricultural Technology Development Co., Ltd. infringed on the right of new plant varieties dispute case [Supreme People’s Court (2022) Supreme Court Zhimin End No. 2907 civil court verdict]
　　[Case summary] Liaoning Danyu Industrial Technology joint stock company is the owner of the new variety of corn plant "Danyu No. 405". Linghai Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. infringed the variety rights of "Danyu No. 405" with the name "Ziguang No. 4" without authorization, and was found to be infringing by an effective judgment in 2015. After that, in 2019 and 2020, it continued to carry out the infringement of producing and selling the "Danyu No. 405" variety under the names "Jinyu 118" "Anyu 13" and "Danyu No. 606" respectively. Qingdao Lian Agricultural Technology Development Co., Ltd. is the seller of the alleged infringing seeds. Liaoning Dan Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. then sued the court, requesting that Linghai Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. and Qingdao Lian Agricultural Technology Development Co., Ltd. stop infringing and jointly compensate a total of 3 million yuan for economic losses and reasonable expenses (with 1.50 million yuan as the compensation base, and 1 times the punitive compensation). The court of first instance held that the calculation base of punitive damages could not be determined, so it applied the statutory compensation judgment Linghai Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. stopped infringing and compensated a total of 1 million yuan for economic losses and reasonable expenses. Liaoning Dan Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. refused to accept and appealed. The Supreme People’s Court 2nd-round Moderation held that the infringement of Linghai Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. has a long time, a wide geographical area, and a large scale, and has repeatedly committed deck infringement and repeated infringement. The infringement is intentional and obvious, and the infringement circumstances are bad, so it should bear punitive compensation liability. Refer to the number of "Danyu No. 405" seeds that Linghai Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. believes can be harvested by breeding 400 mu of infringing seeds and the gross profit on sales, which has basically satisfied the 1.50 million yuan compensation base claimed by Liaoning Danye Industrial Technology Co., Ltd., and then according to the compensation base of 1.50 million yuan and 1 times the punitive compensation, the judgment is changed to support the full amount of Liaoning Danye Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. 3 million yuan lawsuit claim.
　　[Typical meaning] This case makes it clear that the base of punitive compensation can be determined based on the evidence in the case, and cannot simply apply statutory compensation because it is difficult to calculate accurately. The judgment of this case reflects the determination and judicial attitude of the people’s court to fully implement the punitive compensation system, reducing the difficulty of rights holders in accordance with the law, effectively playing the deterrent effect of punitive compensation, and effectively making the infringer pay a heavy price.
　　V. Navigation electronic map copyright infringement and unfair competition disputes
　　Beijing Simou Technology joint stock company and Beijing Baimou Technology Co., Ltd. and other copyright infringement and unfair competition disputes [Beijing Higher People’s Court (2021) Jingminzhuan No. 421 civil court verdict]
　　[Case summary] Beijing four science and technology joint stock company began to carry out electronic map research and development and promotion since 2002, and created the 15Q4 Internet electronic map and 16Q2 Internet electronic map (hereinafter collectively referred to as the rights map). In 2013, Beijing four science and technology joint stock company and Beijing hundred Technology Co., Ltd. signed a "cooperation agreement", agreeing to authorize Beijing hundred Technology Co., Ltd. to use the rights map until the end of 2016. Beijing Simou Technology Co., Ltd. and its affiliates claimed that after the contract expired, Beijing Baimou Technology Co., Ltd. and its affiliates used navigation electronic maps that were substantially similar to the rights map in the six accused application software operated by "Baidu Map", "Baidu CarLife" and "Baidu Navigation", which infringed their copyright and constituted unfair competition, and then sued the court. The court of first instance held that the navigation electronic maps used by Beijing Baimou Technology Co., Ltd. in the application software constituted copyright infringement, and ordered the company and its affiliates to stop the infringement, apologize, eliminate the impact, and jointly and severally compensate for economic losses of 64.50 million yuan and reasonable expenses of more than 920,000 yuan. Beijing Baimou Technology Co., Ltd. refused to accept it and appealed. The 2nd-round Moderation of the Beijing Higher People’s Court held that the rights map constitutes a graphic work under the copyright law. For the massive map data, through the comparison of 30 secret notes, 125 internal roads, 47 sea-expanding administrative area maps and 44 model maps provided by the right holder, it can be determined that Beijing Baimou Technology Co., Ltd. and its affiliates used navigation electronic maps that were substantially similar to the rights map in the six accused applications operated after the expiration of the "Cooperation Agreement", infringing the copyright of Beijing Simou Technology joint stock company. In view of the fact that the copyright law has been applied to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the right holder, it is not appropriate to apply Article 2 of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law for repeated protection. The appeal was dismissed and the original judgment was upheld.
　　[Typical meaning] Data is a key element of the digital economy. This case is a typical case of navigation electronic maps being protected by copyright law. The case not only conducts in-depth analysis of the elements of navigation electronic maps that constitute graphic works, but also makes useful explorations on the substantive similarity comparison of massive map data, highlighting the important role of intellectual property judicial trial services in safeguarding the digital economy.
　　VI. Cases involving unfair competition of "data"
　　Beijing Weimou Network Technology Co., Ltd. and Guangzhou Jianmou Information Technology Co., Ltd. and other unfair competition disputes [Guangdong Higher People’s Court (2022) Yueminjian No. 4541 civil court verdict]
　　[Case summary] Beijing Jianmou Network Technology Co., Ltd. is the operator of Sina Weibo. It accused Guangzhou Jianmou Information Technology Co., Ltd. of using malicious technical means to illegally call the server API (application programming interface) to capture a large amount of Weibo data, store and sell it, which constituted unfair competition, and then sued the court. The court of first instance held that Guangzhou Jianmou Information Technology Co., Ltd. constituted unfair competition and ordered it to compensate 20 million yuan for economic losses and 272,680 yuan for reasonable expenses for rights protection. Guangzhou Jianmou Information Technology Co., Ltd. refused to accept it and appealed. The Higher People’s Court of Guangdong Province held that Beijing Jianmou Network Technology Co., Ltd. enjoys the rights and interests of independent control, lawful use and economic benefits of Weibo data held in accordance with laws and regulations. Guangzhou Jianmou Information Technology Co., Ltd. illegally calls the Weibo server API to capture a large amount of background data for storage by changing IP (network address), UID (user account number) and other deceptive technical methods, and sells it to unspecified Internet users without processing to make profits. This behavior significantly increases the risk of the Weibo platform being substantially replaced, and may also cause data security issues such as personal privacy and leakage of sensitive information. It violates the principles of fairness, integrity and business ethics, disrupts the competitive order of the data market, seriously damages the legitimate rights and interests of Beijing Weimou Network Technology Co., Ltd. and consumers, and constitutes unfair competition as stipulated in Article 2 of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law. According to the median fee standard of 1 yuan/100 times of Guangzhou Jane Information Technology Co., Ltd., its profit is about 2179.79 million yuan. Based on the long duration of the alleged infringement, the huge scale of the call data, and the serious consequences of the damage, it is not improper to fully support the compensation request of Beijing Micro Network Technology Co., Ltd., so the judgment rejects the appeal and upholds the original judgment.
　　[Typical meaning] This case is a typical case of illegally capturing data for trading and reselling. The judgment is based on the balanced relationship between "strong protection" of data and "orderly circulation", and clarifies the boundaries of data rights protection. It reflects the clear judicial attitude of judicial trials to guide market entities to obtain and use data "in a good way and to a certain extent."

Defendant Liu Mousheng’s circumstances are particularly serious. Defendant Liu’s circumstances are serious, and their actions have constituted the crime of copyright infringement. In a joint crime, the defendant Liu Mousheng is the principal offender; the defendant Liu is an accessory, and should be given a lighter punishment. Both defendants have confessed to the circumstances and can be given a lighter punishment; if they voluntarily plead guilty and accept the punishment, they can pay a fine in advance before the court, and can be given a lighter punishment. Therefore, the defendant Liu Mousheng was sentenced to three years and two months in prison and fined 700,000 yuan for the crime of copyright infringement; the defendant Liu was sentenced to one year in prison, suspended for one year, and fined 80,000 yuan. After the first-instance judgment, neither defendant appealed.

　　Xiaomou Technology Co., Ltd. and Chen and Shenzhen Yunmou Technology Co., Ltd. unfair competition dispute case [Wenzhou Intermediate People’s Court of Zhejiang Province (2023) Zhejiang 03 Minchu No. 423 civil court verdict]
　　[Case summary] Xiaomou Technology Co., Ltd. released the first artificial intelligence speaker with the wake-up word "Xiao Ai Classmate" in July 2017, and has since installed an artificial intelligence voice interaction engine using the wake-up word "Xiao Ai Classmate" in mobile phones, TVs and other products. From August 2017 to June 2020, Chen applied for the registration of 66 trademarks such as "Xiao Ai Classmate" in different product categories, and then sent a lawyer’s letter to the affiliated companies of Xiaomou Technology Co., Ltd. to request that it stop infringing its "Xiao Ai Classmate" trademark rights, and used the "Xiao Ai Classmate" trademark on sports watches, alarm clocks and other products with Shenzhen Yunmou Technology Co., Ltd. to jointly publish product promotional articles.

Protected by the Anti-Unfair Competition Law. Chen registered a large number of trademarks such as "Xiao Ai Classmate" and sent a lawyer’s letter to "stop infringement" to the affiliated enterprises of Xiaomou Technology Co., Ltd., which violated the principle of good faith, disrupted the fair market competition order, and damaged the legitimate rights and interests of Xiaomou Technology Co., Ltd., which is an act of unfair competition regulated by Article 2 of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law. Chen and Shenzhen Yunmou Technology Co., Ltd. sold goods with the logo of "Xiao Ai Classmate" and released misleading commercial publicity information, which constituted confusion and false propaganda of unfair competition. Therefore, the judgment was immediately stopped, Chen compensated Xiaomou Technology Co., Ltd. for economic losses and reasonable expenses of 1.20 million yuan, and Shenzhen Yunmou Technology Co., Ltd. was jointly and severally liable for 250,000 yuan. After the first-instance judgment, none of the parties appealed.
　　[Typical meaning] This case is a typical case involving the protection of the rights and interests of artificial intelligence Keywords Spotting. The judgment of this case not only makes it clear that the use of wake-up words with certain influence belongs to the legitimate rights and interests protected by the Anti-Unfair Competition Law, but also effectively regulates the behavior of maliciously squatting other people’s wake-up words and abusing rights, fully protecting the brand goodwill of technological innovation enterprises.
　　Cases involving "juvenile model" unfair competition
　　Shenzhen Tengmou Computer System Co., Ltd. and Beijing Aimou Technology Co., Ltd. unfair competition dispute case [Tianjin Free Trade Zone People’s Court (2022) Jin 0319 Minchu No. 23977 civil court verdict]
　　[Case Summary] Shenzhen Teng Computer System Co., Ltd. and others have set up "Youth Mode" in the "Tencent Video" and "Tencent NOW Live" APP operated by them. When opening the above APP, a pop-up window prompt will pop up on the homepage. The guardian of the teenager can conveniently open the "Youth Mode". This mode is configured with high-quality content suitable for teenagers, restricts social and consumption functions such as recharging, tipping, and gift giving, and sets up an anti-addiction mechanism. In order to ensure the normal operation of the "Youth Mode", the service agreements of both APPs stipulate that users shall not interfere with or destroy the normal operation of the software, shall not add, delete, or change the functions or operation effects of the software, and shall not implement any behavior that endangers minors. The "anti-advertising tool" APP operated by Beijing Aimou Technology Co., Ltd. uses the "juvenile mode pop-up box automatic closing" function as a "member exclusive privilege", and guides users to open and use the function in a "free time" way, resulting in users being unable to use "juvenile mode" through the prominent pop-up window prompt popping up on the homepage of Shenzhen Tengmou Computer System Co., Ltd. Shenzhen Tengmou Computer System Co., Ltd. and others believed that Beijing Aimou Technology Co., Ltd. constituted unfair competition, so they sued the court. The People’s Court of Tianjin Free Trade Zone held that the blocking of "juvenile mode" by Beijing Aimou Technology Co., Ltd. was essentially an act of unfair competition that hindered and destroyed the normal operation of network products and services of Shenzhen Tengmou Computer System Co., Ltd. on the grounds of technological neutrality to obtain economic benefits, resulting in the failure of the company’s functional design to protect minors, which not only undermined the market order of fair competition and industry ecology, but also violated relevant laws and regulations for the protection of minors, hindered the long-term healthy development of online audio & video, live broadcast and other industries, and constituted unfair competition. Considering that the products of Shenzhen Teng Computer System Co., Ltd. have a greater impact on the adolescent group, Beijing Love Technology Co., Ltd. has a greater subjective fault, and the function of blocking adolescent mode covers a variety of application software. The influence range is wider, the number of downloads is more, and the duration is longer. Factors such as a long time, Beijing Love Technology Co., Ltd. was ordered to compensate for economic losses and reasonable expenses totaling 3 million yuan. After the first instance judgment, neither party appealed, and reached a pre-execution settlement.
　　[Typical meaning] This case is a typical case of blocking "juvenile model" unfair competition. The judge affirmed the positive role of "juvenile model" in safeguarding the rights and interests of minors online, and made a negative evaluation of the blocking of "juvenile model" through the application of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law, and guided network service providers to consciously fulfill their network obligations and social responsibilities to protect minors.

First cup of spring tea! 2023 National Spring Tea Map Released： Many Places in Jiangnan Grab ＂Fresh＂ Mining

　　China Weather Network News "Spring tea has been tasted since it was made, and the color and taste of Gan Xin are fragrant." It is another spring tea season. In March, the south of China is getting more and more spring, and the land is getting warmer. Tea farmers in major tea gardens are busy to ensure that the first batch of spring tea is listed on time. China Weather Network specially launched the national map of spring tea in 2023 to see where the spring tea has been exploited.

　　Spring tea has entered the four major tea producing areas in China, including Zhejiang and Jiangsu.concentratePicking period

　　People in China have tasted tea for thousands of years. Before the Tang Dynasty, the function of tea was mainly medicinal, and the custom of drinking tea became popular since the Tang Dynasty. Lu Yu, a "Cha Sheng", made a systematic study of tea and wrote a monograph on tea, Tea Classic. China tea culture, which flourished in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty, has been deeply integrated into the traditional culture of China through literature, art and religion, and tea has become one of the most interesting and national customs of Chinese people.

　　There are four major tea producing areas in China, all of which have spring tea, and the southwest producing areas and Jiangnan producing areas are relatively concentrated.

　　The southwest producing area is a plateau producing area, and the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau has preserved the largest number of ancient tea trees in the world, which is regarded as the original producing area of tea trees in China. The first wave of spring tea this year has been listed, including Jiuan green tea, Pu ‘er tea, Mengdingshan tea and other varieties.

　　There are many varieties of spring tea in Jiangnan producing areas, mainly green tea, such as Biluochun in Dongting Mountain and Longjing in West Lake, etc., which entered the centralized picking period in mid-March. Biluochun in Dongting Mountain is produced in Suzhou. Since the spring of this year, the temperature in Biluochun tea producing area in Dongting Mountain is suitable and the light is sufficient, which is conducive to the germination of tea trees and the picking of fresh leaves. West Lake Longjing tea has a long history, which can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty, and the Longjing tea area gradually took shape in the Northern Song Dynasty. The average annual temperature in Hangzhou, the producing area of West Lake Longjing, is 16℃, and the annual precipitation is about 1500mm. The superior natural conditions are conducive to the growth and development of tea trees.

　　The above two kinds of spring tea have strict requirements on the time period of harvesting, and "tea before tomorrow" is the best. "Tea before the Ming Dynasty" is a proprietary name for people to divide the picking time of tea according to the solar terms. It is spring tea picked before the Qingming Festival. At this time, the tea is the most tender and fragrant, and it is the best quality tea in a year.

　　Among the four major tea producing areas in China, there are two producing areas in the south and the north, namely, the South China producing area south of Nanling and the Jiangbei producing area north of the Yangtze River. The producing areas in South China mainly include Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Taiwan Province and other places, with humid climate. The main tea producing areas are mountainous areas, which are shrouded in fog all the year round and have a large temperature difference between day and night, which is very beneficial to the growth of tea trees. Spring tea can be mined in early March. Jiangbei production area is mainly located in the north of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, where the temperature is lower than other production areas, and the tea sprouts late. The spring tea varieties Xinyang Maojian and Laoshan green tea in this production area will not be mined until the end of March to April.

　　Meteorological conditions have great influence on the growth of tea trees, and temperature is the main factor.

　　In China, tea planting is mainly distributed along the Yangtze River to the coastal area of South China. Lu Yu said in the Book of Tea: "Tea makers are the best in the south." According to Shi Yan, a meteorologist of China Weather Network, the growth of tea trees requires temperature, precipitation and illumination. Tea trees like light and shade, the environment temperature is 20-25℃, and the area with annual precipitation over 1000 mm is most suitable for growth. Most of southern China has a warm climate, which provides unique natural conditions for the growth of tea trees.

　　The growth of tea trees is closely related to the temperature. Under natural conditions, the new buds of tea generally begin to sprout when the daily average temperature exceeds 10℃, and will stop growing when it exceeds 30℃. Before spring tea mining every year, the temperature fluctuation in tea-producing areas will affect the time when spring tea is on the market.

　　Judging from the varieties of tea, tea in China can be divided into six categories: green tea, black tea, green tea, black tea, white tea and yellow tea. It can also be divided into spring tea, summer tea and autumn tea according to different picking periods. In spring tea, there are many varieties of green tea. After a winter’s rest, tea trees are full of nutrients and rich in amino acids and other nutrients.

　　There are many ways to choose spring tea, and people can judge the quality of tea by looking, touching and smelling. Look, mainly depends on the shape, color and uniformity of tea; Touch, you can gently pinch the tea with your fingers to feel its dryness. If it is wet, it will affect the quality of the tea. Smell, by smelling the smell of tea to identify whether tea is moldy or deteriorated.

　　The development of tea culture has penetrated into every aspect of people’s life in China. In Jiangnan, Southwest and other areas with a long history of tea culture, tea has become an indispensable part of people’s appreciation of spring. Tea is processed into delicious food and served on the table, and the tea garden has become a beautiful scenery for people to feel the breath of spring. At present, spring tea in many tea producing areas in China has been mined and listed, so friends may wish to soak in a cup of spring tea and taste the taste of spring!

Going north and going south-the exchange between Hong Kong and mainland youth has narrowed their spiritual distance

　　Xinhua News Agency, Guangzhou, June 21st (Reporter Chen Ji Zhan Yan) Since he went to Beijing to work in Internet advertising in 2000, Zhang Longhua, a Hong Kong native, has experienced several entrepreneurial stories spanning Beijing, Hong Kong and Shenzhen.

　　His latest entrepreneurial project is the mobile Internet video teaching platform "Xiumiao". This platform was released in Hong Kong at the end of 2015 and landed in the mainland at the beginning of the following year. Zhang Longhua set up the company in Hong Kong Science Park and the mainland branch in Shenzhen Qianhai Youth DreamWorks, and went back and forth to the two places once a week as usual.

　　Xiu Miaoduo invited a Hong Kong tutor to teach the course, covering life skills such as speech skills, social etiquette, love and marriage. "Not only the first-tier cities in the mainland have demand for these courses, but many second-and third-tier cities have wine tasting classes, etiquette classes, etc., and there are many people attending classes." Zhang Longhua said, "Because people are striving for progress, and they are constantly pursuing the enrichment of social skills and the improvement of their self-cultivation."

　　At the end of 2014, Qianhai Administration, Shenzhen Youth Federation and Hong Kong Youth Federation initiated the establishment of Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Youth DreamWorks, and so far 77 Hong Kong entrepreneurial teams including Xiumiao have been hatched. Qianhai also provided 666 internship positions for young people in Hong Kong, received 8,000 students from Hong Kong colleges and universities for study and exchange, and attracted more than 100 Hong Kong youth entrepreneurial teams to participate in the first Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition.

　　Going north to start a business is behind the enthusiastic struggle of young people in Hong Kong and the help of government departments. It is understood that in the past three academic years, more than 170,000 Hong Kong students participated in the mainland exchange program. In April 2014, the Hong Kong SAR Government launched the Youth Internship and Exchange Funding Scheme in the Mainland, which further promoted Hong Kong young people’s understanding of the job market and development opportunities in the Mainland.

　　Close to the water tower, Qianhai has opened a channel for the flow of talents between Shenzhen and Hong Kong. In addition to promoting more than 10 kinds of Hong Kong professionals such as certified tax agents, certified accountants and housing managers to practice directly in Qianhai, it also levies personal income tax on overseas talents including high-end talents from Hong Kong at a rate of only 15%.

　　After starting a business, Zhang Longhua is still infatuated with the strong historical and humanistic atmosphere in the north, which is also one of the reasons why the vast mainland attracts him. "I like history very much. At that time, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, I would go to the Great Wall every month and visit Shichahai every week or two." He said.

　　Multi-culture, international vision and open concept … … A "Pearl of the Orient", which blends East and West, has also attracted many young people from the mainland to show their great ambitions during the 20 years since returning to the motherland.

　　Unlike Zhang Longhua, Zhao Xiaoshuang, a mainland exchange student at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, prefers to go into nature and "see the sea through the mountains". "Hong Kong’s natural environment is well protected. It’s not very troublesome to go to an island by boat. The scenery is beautiful and natural. This is a particularly good place in Hong Kong. " She said.

　　The year after Hong Kong’s return, Hong Kong universities began to recruit mainland students by entrusting 10 mainland universities. In 2003, the Ministry of Education officially agreed that Hong Kong universities should recruit self-funded undergraduates in six provinces and cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Fujian. Over the past decade or so, the scope of enrollment has gradually expanded.

　　In 2009, after graduating from Beijing Foreign Studies University, Zhao Xiaoshuang was admitted to the Department of Social Work of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, worked in Hong Kong for more than four years, returned from studying abroad for one year, and worked as an exchange student at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. Zhao Xiaoshuang, who originally went south, claimed to be "led by curiosity". She said that there are many advanced things in social work and charity in Hong Kong, and I want to learn about them myself.

　　Mr. Wang, from Zhengzhou, Henan Province, chose the multimedia major of the School of Design of Hong Kong Polytechnic University to further study and improve himself after graduating from a creative cartoon in Hong Kong.

　　After living in Hong Kong for more than five years, Mr. Wang has been able to skillfully hear Cantonese and got married here. In cafes in Hong Kong, he has taught Mandarin one-on-one with Hong Kong friends for countless times. "More and more Hong Kong people have this will because their business is related to the mainland and they have to speak Mandarin." Mr. Wang said.

　　In 2011, as a financial consultant, Chen Zhihao, a Hong Kong resident, was still fluent in Mandarin when he came to meet his first mainland client in Longgang, Shenzhen. This mainland customer is a primary school teacher with a monthly income of 5,000 yuan. Although the business was not concluded, she became good friends with Chen Zhihao.

　　During the past six years, Chen Zhihao’s clients were mainly mainland youths, who were distributed in Shenzhen, Guangzhou and other places. His life was like a pendulum, and he frequently traveled between Hong Kong and Shenzhen. He met his girlfriend in Shenzhen, a Guiyang girl who graduated from Hong Kong University.

　　"The biggest feeling of working and living in the mainland is that people have a positive attitude towards work and life and work hard. I learned a lot from my girlfriend. " Chen Zhihao said.

　　The Chief Secretary for Administration of the Hong Kong SAR Government, Mr Matthew Cheung Kin-chung, said that apart from politics and economy, the mainland and Hong Kong are also closely related to social and livelihood issues. Cultural exchanges between the two places are becoming more and more frequent. At present, there are more than 520,000 Hong Kong people living, working and studying in Guangdong Province for a long time.

　　Many customers at work have become friends in Chen Zhihao’s life. "Basically, they eat together, watch movies together and chat together. I often recommend them to watch some good movies in Hong Kong." Chen Zhihao said, "I am doing myself well, in fact, I am promoting Hong Kong well."

The sales of ＂deep＂ high-end beauty cosmetics have fallen sharply, and the desire of middle-class women to protect their faces is declining？

Since late January, Simei, who has been isolated at home, has found that cosmetics are useless. Due to the inconvenience of going out and poor logistics, she hardly bought beauty products.

During the epidemic, there were not a few people who reduced the consumption of beauty products. According to the data obtained by Bain, a management consulting company, and Alibaba Tmall, the online sales of beauty products decreased by 30% from the first day of the first month to the thirteenth day of the first month (January 25th to February 6th) in the Spring Festival in 2020, among which the high-end beauty products were more affected, with a decrease of 40%.

Estee Lauder’s performance fluctuated greatly during the epidemic. After combing the data of ECdataway Dataway, we found that the brand’s sales dropped by more than 75% year-on-year in the two weeks from February 8 to February 21. After ranking 100 in the brand sales list, it became the first in Tmall’s beauty care category from February 22 to February 28. This may be because Taobao Live Li Jiaqi broadcasted two Estee Lauder products on February 27.

Shiseido Group previously said that the sales volume of its four top brands in China decreased by more than half during the New Year.

At the same time, affordable beauty brands have been hit relatively lightly.

According to the data of ECdataway Dataway, during the five weeks from January 25th to February 28th, the sales of high-end beauty brands in Tmall beauty category fluctuated greatly, while the low-priced brands such as L ‘Oreal, Perfect Diary, Huaxizi and Yuze remained relatively stable in the top 15 of the weekly sales list.

Although with the passage of time, the beauty category market gradually began to resume growth, the difficulties faced by high-end beauty brands may be long-term.

During the epidemic, the online sales of high-end beauty brands declined significantly. Bain and Tmall explained that the social needs of Generation Z (born in 1995-2009), young people in small towns and cutting-edge white-collar workers declined, and they contributed more than 50% of the sales of this category in 2019, so the sales dropped significantly.

But this is not the whole reason. The frustration of high-end beauty brands is also related to their special brand attributes.

Yu Jian, general manager of Kaidu Consumer Index Greater China, told interface fashion that high-end beauty products, unlike cheap beauty brands, also bear the gift function like luxury goods.

Valentine’s Day is the traditional sales season for high-end beauty brands, but this year’s high-end beauty brands are probably "lover robbery".

After combing the Tmall sales data of ECdataway Dataway, it was found that the sales of high-end beauty brands generally declined on Valentine’s Day and the week before the holiday (February 8-February 14).

Among them, Lancome sales decreased by 12.8%, Estee Lauder sales decreased by 60.2%, Snow Show sales decreased by 41.7%, CPB sales decreased by 44.3% and SK-II sales decreased by 2.3%.

However, in a special period, even if online sales decline, it is a timely help. What makes high-end beauty brands even more headache is that tourism retail, which they regard as a channel for growth, almost completely failed during the epidemic.

Tourism is always closely related to shopping, and the most crowded people in duty-free shops are always the beauty counters with fragrance. According to the data of Generation Research, a French tourism retail research institution, the total sales of tourism retail channels reached 79 billion US dollars in 2018, of which perfumed products accounted for 31 billion yuan. Beauty products are undoubtedly the largest category of tourism retail in the world.

Shiseido Group, Estee Lauder Group and L ‘Oré al Group all emphasized the importance of tourism retail to the group in their financial year 2019 performance reports, and it was even the fastest growing channel for Shiseido last year.

More than a month ago, these beauty groups should have ushered in a small sales peak by taking advantage of the East Wind of Spring Festival travel. However, according to the data of the Ministry of Transport and the Civil Aviation Administration, the national civil aviation passenger flow in Spring Festival travel rush decreased by 47.5% within 40 days (January 10-February 18), of which the passenger flow plummeted by 86% from February 1 to February 18.

People greatly reduce their travel, so naturally they can’t and have no time to shop during the trip.

Shiseido CEO Masahiko Yutani previously revealed that after the outbreak, whether in department stores, pharmacies or duty-free shops, they obviously saw the impact of the decrease in China tourists on sales. Analysts at Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities believe that Shiseido’s sales in the Asia-Pacific region including China and duty-free shops will decrease by 20%.

Because of the "avalanche" of tourism retail channels, in late February, Estee Lauder Group even offered a huge discount of 60% for three or more brands in duty-free retailers at airports such as duty-free shops in Japan.

Although the epidemic will always pass, high-end beauty brands are still worried that after the epidemic, the target group will become cautious in consumption and will take the initiative to downgrade beauty products.

Since the Chinese New Year, almost all walks of life have heard the news that the company’s cash flow is tight. Startups are struggling to save themselves, and large companies have successively implemented measures such as layoffs and employee pay cuts.

The middle class with houses, cars and loans should have been loyal customers of high-end beauty brands, but an epidemic will force them to grow.

Sun Xiaoji, a financial writer, said in an interview with Interface Culture that the outbreak of the epidemic gave people a rare opportunity to reflect on consumerism.

Sun Xiaoji suggested that people "get rid of the illusion of the middle class", control their desire for consumption, increase their desire for income, use their money for investment and savings, and don’t buy meaningless goods. "When you have to spend money, you can treat every expenditure as an investment."

However, consumers’ demand for high-end beauty products still exists, and brands also have opportunities to seize.

According to the data of the business staff, in February, the number of views, collectors and times of collection of Tmall cosmetics increased slightly, and the trend of beauty and skin care categories became more intense, with the number of views, collectors and times of collection rising sharply, with the growth rates of 64.09%, 39.10% and 77.80% respectively.

This means that in the days when people are isolated at home, although they have reduced shopping, they have more time to learn about beauty knowledge. Simei planted many new products, and saved two months’ salary when she went out, so she was going to buy them in buy buy after the epidemic.

L ‘Oré al Group called it the consumption base of beauty products at the presentation of "Cloud Release" China development strategy. Once the situation improves, beauty lovers will release their pent-up shopping desire.

After all, China women’s demand for beauty products should not be underestimated, and now they are the most mature consumers in the Asia-Pacific region.

Tao Jun, Director of Consumer and Market Insight of L ‘Oré al China, said that the overall penetration rate of female consumers in China in skin care products is close to 100%, and all categories are basically the same as those in South Korea, even surpassing South Korea in eye cream and mask, with an average of 13.8 skin care products.

In China, some high-end beauty brands have strengthened the operation of "private domain traffic" in sales channels.

On February 1st and 2nd, the sales of skin care brand Lin Qingxuan’s Wuhan store soared, and its performance rose to the second place in the country. On February 15th, Lin Qingxuan’s offline performance even increased by 45% compared with the same period of last year, and most of these sales were completed by digital platforms such as shopping guides and live broadcasts.

Lin Qingxuan told interface fashion that as of the end of February, 337 direct-operated stores had basically achieved the same performance as the same period of last year through digitalization. From March 1 ST to March 8 th, Lin Qingxuan’s whole network sales increased by 513% year-on-year.

Prior to this, half of Lin Qingxuan’s offline stores had been closed from the first day of the Lunar New Year to the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and his performance plummeted by 90%. Sun Chunlai, the founder, once said that the cash flow could only last for two or three months at most, and tapping private domain traffic made Lin Qingxuan temporarily out of the predicament.

Fan Yijin, vice president of Tencent Smart Retail, said at the online summit of beauty private domain traffic held by Jumeili and Tencent Advertising that according to interviews with consumers, store managers and shopping guides and BCG analysis of consulting company, when brand store managers and shopping guides have 300 customer friends and 30 ~ 50 customers who interact frequently, and interact with consumers at least once every 1 ~ 2 months, and chat for 3 ~ 5 minutes each time, the service capacity of sales terminals can be improved by 9 ~ 10 times, and the repurchase rate of consumers can be improved.

Lin Qingxuan told the interface fashion that after the epidemic, Lin Qingxuan will also increase the digitalization of live broadcast, and upgrade to Lin Qingxuan’s digital live broadcast store on the basis of existing direct stores, which will increase the user experience and form two dimensions of online content dissemination and offline service experience that reach consumers.

However, private domain traffic is not a treasure mine that all high-end brands can tap. Song Xing, founder and CEO of Fanyan Consulting, said at the online beauty private domain traffic summit that China companies of international beauty brands are limited by overseas headquarters’ control over brand tonality and other aspects, and it is difficult to respond to some domestic trends quickly, so they may miss the tide of private domain traffic.

On the other hand, private domain traffic is a sudden rise during the epidemic. It seems to be a temporary savior, but its future development trend is still not clear. With the gradual overload of private domain information, some users have begun to quit the WeChat group full of sales links.

For mid-to-high-end beauty brands, the way to retain customers may be to enhance brand power and establish emotional ties with them. In Yin Kuo’s view, the middle and high-end beauty products are perceptual goods, and consumers will still be willing to use the customary beauty brands in the long run.

The efficacy of beauty products is difficult to be measured intuitively, and the consumption of high-end beauty products belongs to emotional consumption. What high-end brands need to do is to find the button that triggers consumers’ emotions.

Yu Jian believes that as long as China consumers yearn for a better life, the beauty market will be full of various possibilities.
