Recently, NIO disclosed its financial report for 2022. The NIO Xiaopeng ideal, which has always been compared by everyone, is inevitably used by the industry for financial competition. However, unexpectedly, NIO, which has always been the big brother in the new car manufacturing forces, has the highest revenue but more losses. In comparison, Xiaopeng and the ideal gross margin are slightly better.

Simply put, NIO lost 14.437 billion in 2022, an increase of 259.4% year-on-year; if calculated by the delivery volume of 122,486 vehicles last year, NIO will lose 117,800 yuan on average for every car sold. And you can also see that in the fourth quarter of last year, NIO’s gross profit margin fell to 3.9%, and the annual gross profit margin was only 10.4%. This data compares to the ideal 20% to know how low it is. In this case, does NIO have a future?

From its establishment in November 2014 to March 2023, NIO has experienced eight years. As the most powerful and reputable new energy vehicle company among many new car-making forces, Li Bin, the founder of NIO, is the founder of Yiche, the first overseas listed automotive Internet company in China. Before going public in 2018, NIO had received more than 2 billion US dollars in financing, and investors included Tencent, JD.com, Hillhouse, Hopu and other first-class institutions. In 2018, NIO successfully went public in the United States, with a financing scale of up to 960 million US dollars, making it the third largest financing scale among Chinese companies that went public in the United States that year. Although it encountered a capital chain crisis for more than a year after listing, and there was news of bankruptcy, NIO finally got 7 billion strategic investment through the assistance of Hefei state-owned assets, and got through the difficulties without danger.

First of all, NIO’s substation is one of the important factors of its loss. In the early days of NIO’s establishment, its substation model was regarded by many as its unique selling point, but now, this model has become a burden. It is reported that NIO currently has more than 140 substation, and each substation costs more than 10 million yuan to build. Although this has improved the user experience and brand value, NIO needs to bear huge pressure.

Secondly, as cost growth far outpaced revenue growth, NIO’s gross margin fell sharply. The higher the gross margin, the stronger the profitability and competitive advantage of the company’s products. And NIO’s automotive gross margin suddenly fell from 20.9% to 6.8% in the fourth quarter of 2022, which led to a loss. If we ask the reason for the low gross margin, we can find that the reasons are inventory reserves, accelerated depreciation of production equipment, loss of purchase commitments, and rising battery costs.

In addition to profit pressure, the other end of the deficit isR & DCost. In 2022, NIO’s R & D expenses were 10.836 billion yuan, an increase of 136.0% year-on-year.…At the same time, selling, general and administrative expenses were 10.537 billion yuan, an increase of 53.2% year-on-year. From this point of view, R & D expenses almost doubled, which was the main reason for the increase in expenses, while high sales, general expenses and administrative expenses also contributed to the loss.

　　■ Follow-up

　　Why manage ride-hailing drivers?

　　The Ministry of Transport said that whether it is online car-hailing or cruise cars, it provides universal passenger transportation services for the public, and the driver is subject to access management according to law, which is the bottom line requirement of the industry management department to ensure transportation safety and service quality.

　　In what aspects have the characteristics of online car-hailing been considered?

　　In the revision of the "Regulations on the Administration of Taxi Driver Qualifications", the characteristics of online car-hailing are fully considered, and through "tailor-made" system design and management innovation, we actively support the standardized development of new business models. For example, compared with cruise car drivers, the content of the online car-hailing driver test is minimized, and its registration and cancellation are stipulated, which can be completed by the platform company reporting to the taxi administrative department where the issuing authority is located.

　　Regulations on the Administration of Cruise Taxi

　　"Molecular money" should be adjusted in time

　　According to the "Guiding Opinions on Deepening Reform and Promoting the Healthy Development of the Taxi Industry" and the "Interim Measures for the Management of Online Booking Taxi Business Services" issued, the revised "Regulations on the Management of Cruise Taxi Business Services" adjusted the scope of application, and made a series of provisions on the positioning of the taxi industry, the distribution of interests between operators and drivers, etc. It is clear that taxis are an integral part of the urban comprehensive transportation system, a supplement to urban public transportation, and provide personalized transportation services for the public. The development of cruise taxis should be in line with the economic and social development of the city, and coordinated with the development of passenger transportation service methods such as public transportation. By clarifying the development orientation, efforts should be made to build a diversified and differentiated urban comprehensive transportation service system to better meet the travel needs of the people.

　　In response to the "part money" problem of taxis, cruise taxi operators are required to adjust the contract fee standards or quota tasks in a timely manner according to factors such as operating costs and changes in freight rates, so as to better build a business model of shared operational risks and reasonable distribution of benefits between enterprises and drivers, and accelerate the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries.

　　Background

　　The two provisions provide for the rule of law

　　In July this year, the Ministry of Transport issued the "Guiding Opinions on Deepening Reform and Promoting the Healthy Development of the Taxi Industry" and the "Interim Measures for the Management of Online Booking Taxi Business Services", as important supporting regulations for deepening the reform of the taxi industry. Yesterday, the Ministry of Transport issued the newly revised "Regulations on the Management of Taxi Drivers’ Qualifications" and "Regulations on the Management of Tour Taxi Business Services" and made relevant interpretations.

　　The Ministry of Transport said that the amendments to the two ministerial orders were solicited from local transportation authorities in early July this year, and will provide legal protection for promoting the transformation and upgrading of cruise cars, standardizing the operation of online car-hailing, and promoting the integrated development of new and old business models.

China Evergrande’s hearing has been postponed again

On December 4, according to Hong Kong media reports, the liquidation case of China Evergrande was tried again in the Hong Kong High Court today. After the petitioner and Evergrande exchanged and deliberated, the judge heard the arguments and postponed the liquidation hearing of China Evergrande again until January 29, 2024.

In fact, this is the seventh time that Hengda has been delayed by creditors. Industry insiders believe that this also reflects the cautious handling of the liquidation and bankruptcy of the largest real estate company in the Hong Kong capital markets by the Hong Kong judiciary.

On the morning of December 4, China Evergrande issued a clarification announcement saying that the company noticed that an institution published a report on December 1, 2023 that the company had never made a profit. The report has no actual basis, and the company will further clarify the content of the report later. Holders of the company’s securities and potential investors should exercise caution when buying and selling securities.

The move follows a report by GMT Research, a short-seller, that China Evergrande’s delayed 2021 annual report clearly reflects the company’s apparent overstatement of revenue and earnings, which is likely to continue for many years. Evergrande has either fundamental problems or has never made a profit.

　　CCTV NewsAt 15:22 this afternoon, our country successfully launched the 52nd and 53rd Beidou navigation satellites with the Long March 3B rocket at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center, which is also the last two satellites of the Beidou system deployed in the medium circular orbit.

　　Satellites in mid-circle orbit can travel the world, so they are the key to the global network of Beidou satellite navigation system. Whether it is GPS or other existing global satellite navigation systems, a large number of satellites need to be deployed in this orbit. After the launch, all 24 satellites planned by Beidou satellite navigation system in this orbit have been in place, and the deployment of the core constellation of the global system has been officially completed.

　　Beidou has actually quietly entered your life

　　Video: Why do you say "China’s Beidou, the world’s Beidou"?

　　Perhaps many people will ask, Beidou has launched so many satellites, when will we be able to use them? Or how can we use them?

　　There is already "Big Dipper" above your head.

　　In fact, Beidou has already quietly entered our lives. Now when you turn on your mobile phone or navigator to use navigation services, you are not just receiving GPS satellite signals, but the fusion signal of Beidou, GPS, Glonass and other satellite positioning systems. They can complement each other. For example, in the case of high-rise buildings in the city, the GPS signal in some directions will be blocked, so you can directly receive the signal of Beidou to locate.

　　What is the use of Beidou’s unique communication capabilities?

　　Unlike other systems, we can not only know where we are through Beidou, but also tell others where we are through Beidou. This is the unique communication capability that distinguishes Beidou from any other system.

　　Many people may think that we can communicate so conveniently now, so why use Beidou?

　　Because at sea, in many deep mountains and forests without ground communication facilities, communication can only be done by satellite signals. Therefore, whether it is sea rescue or meeting for "jungle exploration", Beidou is an excellent choice. Not only is it global coverage, but it is also very cheap.

　　Of course, this function requires the use of a specific "Beidou" mobile phone!

　　Official certification! World-class navigation and positioning service capabilities

　　Video: Understand the working principle of Beidou navigation with high school knowledge

　　Wang Ping, chief designer of the Beidou-3 satellite, introduced to reporters.At present, the basic system of our Beidou-3 has been evaluated all over the world. The evaluation results show that Beidou’s signal quality, signal ranging accuracy, navigation, positioning and timing accuracy are on par with the US GPS.The completion of all the medium-circle orbit network satellites will enable our Beidou satellite navigation system to achieve world-class service capabilities.

　　China speed! Beidou breaks the world record for global networking

　　Since November 2017, our country has organized 18 Beidou launch missions in 25 months and launched a total of 30 Beidou satellites, breaking the world record for the networking speed of global satellite navigation systems at an average rate of 1.2 satellites per month.

　　Among them, we have to mention the "Beidou special train" – the Changsanjia series of carrier rockets that transported Beidou 38 times.

　　Since the launch of the first Beidou-2 navigation test satellite in 2007, in the past 12 years, the Changsanjia series of rockets have sent 53 Beidou navigation satellites into the predetermined orbit with 38 successful and perfect performances. If the Beidou navigation test satellites launched earlier are included, the Changsanjia series of rockets have escorted 57 Beidou satellites into orbit with a 100% success rate of 42 launches.

　　From Beidou-1 to Beidou-3, from several launches a year to more than a dozen launches a year, the Long March-3A development team has been constantly exploring on the road of innovation. They set a precedent for our country’s "one arrow and two stars" to launch high-orbit satellites, further accelerated the deployment of Beidou satellites, greatly shortened the construction progress of Beidou engineering and greatly reduced the construction cost.

The popularity of the new M7 continues, and a tit-for-tat new energy luxury SUV "price war" has officially started.

On October 15, AITO asked the world to announce that the new M7 listed on the market in the first month of the big order has exceeded 60,000 orders. At present, the Sailis factory has added production shifts, 22 hours of continuous production every day and opened the double shift operation mechanism. In the live broadcast of the factory, Yu Chengdong, chairperson of Huawei Intelligent Vehicle Solutions, bluntly said that in order to improve the production and supply speed of the new M7 in the world, the entire industrial chain and supply chain have increased more than 20,000 workers, and at the same time increased capital investment over 1 billion yuan.

Recently, the Financial Union reporters have repeatedly explored the end point market of automobiles. Even at noon on working days, consumers who go to Huawei stores to see cars and consult are still in constant flow. In terms of policy, after the 33,000 yuan purchase rights and interests of the first sales period, the second round of car purchase rights and interests of the new M7 is worth 30,000 yuan. The deadline for activities is October 31.

The continued sale of the new M7 has directly stimulated the end point policy of competing models such as Krypton 001 and Ideal L7.

The day after the announcement of the report card of "60,000 vehicles in a single month", Extreme Krypton announced that all its models will open the rights and interests of limited-time car purchase, limited-time purchase and replacement. Among them, Extreme Krypton 001 can enjoy a maximum of 80,000 yuan after a number of rights and interests are superimposed. The activity period is from 9:00 on October 16 to 24:00 on December 31.

Compared to JK 001, the competition between the ideal L7 and the new M7 is intensifying. Not long ago, the two brands launched a "air-to-air confrontation", and End Point even spread the rumor of "re-purchase between the new M7 and the ideal L7, and the transaction can reimburse the other party’s deposit". "Our store does not have this [reimbursement deposit] policy, but the current activities of L7 and L8 are very rare, you can directly discount 31,000 yuan, and give gifts such as 20,000 points and foot mats." An ideal store salesperson told reporters.

Earlier this month, Tesla China announced that the price of the Model Y would remain unchanged while adding multi-colored ambient lights, upgraded dashboard trim, upgraded 19-inch wheels and improved acceleration performance. Such a policy is also seen by the industry as a "disguised price reduction" in a highly competitive environment.

From the perspective of market segmentation, the mid-sized/medium-sized SUV market in which Tesla Model Y, Wenjiexin M7, Ideal L7 and other models are located continues to heat up, and the competition is quite fierce. According to the data of the Passenger Federation, in September, although Tesla Model Y fell by 18% month-on-month, it was still far ahead with 53,200 vehicles. There are 7 models that sold more than 10,000 vehicles, namely Audi Q5, BMW X3, Ideal L7, Mercedes-Benz GLC, Hongqi HS5, Ideal L8 and BYD Tang. Among them, Mercedes-Benz GLC, Hongqi HS5 and BYD Tang showed a month-on-month decline, and Ideal L7 and Ideal L8 were basically flat compared with the same period in August.

The white-hot competition of new energy luxury SUVs is just a microcosm of the "Silver Ten" car market. According to incomplete statistics from the Financial Union reporters, more than a dozen car brands, including BYD, NIO, Xiaopeng, Zero Run, Volkswagen, and Buick, have recently launched different preferential policies to take over the "Golden Nine". Under the rare "peak season", the "price war" whose cycle has been extended is still ongoing.

"Because dealers increased the number of cars picked up in September, the end point prices in September and October continue to drop." Lang Xuehong, deputy secretary-general of the China Automobile Dealers Association, believes that under the background of the superposition of various factors, this year’s "Silver Ten" car market will not only be in good condition, but also the actual performance is expected to exceed "Golden Nine". "We believe that the quality of’Gold Nine Silver Ten ‘will be basically the same, and there may even be a situation of’Silver Nine Gold Ten’."

Riding on the cross-border trend, Wahaha Group has once again opened up new ideas. Since October, it has joined hands with Licheng Group, a subsidiary of Ctrip Travel Network, and Lvyue Group to jointly create a "coffee-themed room". As a new product to be re-launched in 2023, the birth of the coffee spot originated from Wahaha’s keen sense of the trend of coffee demand in the market, and is a signature product of its new track of "fresh can coffee", which is a master producer.

The theme room is equipped with photo walls, throw pillows and other items that are strongly related to the coffee position. At the same time, each consumer is given a free coffee latte, which makes the room "strong coffee flavor" and captures the hearts of coffee lovers in one fell swoop. It is understood that the "coffee position theme room" activity plan covers 13 cities including Shanghai, Hangzhou, Huzhou, Ningbo, Jiaxing, Suzhou, Wuxi, Yangzhou, Suqian, Hefei, Anqing, Nanjing, and Chunan Qiandao Lake, with a total of 100 hotels. As the event further advanced, many consumers went to the hotel to explore the store, clocked in the coffee position, felt the quality of the "fresh pot", and posted praise through social media, one after another said: The room is comfortable, the coffee is full of "flavor", and the platinum and black gold color scheme is very textured.

To become the protagonist of this theme room, the coffee position obviously has its own advantages. The use of alpine Arabica coffee beans, imported milk sources from New Zealand, supervised by Q-Grader coffee tasters, SCA roasters carefully customized coffee roasting curves, and rigorous processes have created the extraordinary value of the coffee position. Coupled with "high temperature spray drip filtration" and "instantaneous fresh-locking technology", the use of the current industry’s advanced aseptic cold irrigation production line has further enhanced the high-quality taste of Wahaha coffee position lattes.

In recent years, Wahaha has launched new tricks on the joint name, AD calcium milk has cooperated with BilibiliWorld, Onmyoji, and Teddy to create "Today’s Underage IP", PH9.0 soda water has joined hands with the tide play brand to play "blind water" concept, and very cola has integrated Dunhuang IP to actively embrace Guochao culture… In addition, it also includes different brands such as Douluo Continent, Kuaikan Comics, League of Legends, DIMOO, etc., and has penetrated into various circles such as ACG, e-sports, and tide play, achieving a win-win situation of word-of-mouth and benefits.

　　Newspaper (reporter Meng Huan) can use WeChat, Alipay to pay the taxi fare conveniently, effectively prevent taxi drivers from changing the price without permission… This morning, the reporter learned from the Municipal Transportation Commission Transportation Management Bureau that the city’s taxis have begun to pilot the real-name meter system, and gradually promote the installation this year. There are about 60,000 to 70,000 taxis in the city. At present, Beijing is regulating taxis through scientific and technological means. The city has piloted the installation of this intelligent vehicle end point all-in-one machine on more than 10,000 taxis, including Crescent Moon, BAIC, Yuyang, Wanquan Temple and other taxi companies. Some pure electric taxis in the suburbs have also begun to be installed.

　　The reporter found yesterday that the service supervision card previously placed in front of the co-pilot position has been changed from a paper version to an electronic version, and the position has also been moved to the bottom of the meter to become an electronic screen. The screen displays the relevant information of the taxi and the driver. You can not only see the license plate number and the company to which the vehicle belongs, but also see the identity information of the driver and check the information of his qualification certificate.

　　This all-in-one machine has electronic payment function, satellite positioning function, driver electronic certificate identification and identity authentication function, and has the function of accepting electric calls and industry shunting services, and supports driver identity and pricing information display. Passengers can pay through a variety of mobile payment methods according to the fare displayed by the all-in-one machine. It not only supports a variety of bank cards with UnionPay logos, but also supports common mobile payment methods such as WeChat and Alipay.

　　The regulator can see the operation of the vehicle, the end point all-in-one machine and the driver’s qualification card are used in conjunction. The driver can only get on the bus and swipe the qualification card issued by the transportation department to sign in electronically, and the meter can be used to charge and invoice. Not only can it effectively prevent cloning taxis, but also it can prevent drivers from subcontracting taxis to unqualified personnel.

　　The newly installed smart car end point all-in-one machine in taxis has a new function specially designed to encrypt the meter, which can prevent the driver from changing the amount without permission. Moreover, a taxi all-in-one machine corresponds to a meter, and the meter cannot be removed from the machine. Even if it is forcibly removed, it cannot be installed on other machines, and it is basically impossible to copy. Previously, some criminals "cloned" a taxi through illegal auto repair shops and then configured a full set of taxi equipment to modify the meter. Because the license plate number is fake, the "cloned car" driver will have no scruples and charge high fares by modifying the meter. There are also some taxi drivers who overcharge by modifying the meter to obtain illegal income.

　　Master Huang, the driver of Wan Quan Yuan Taxi Company, said that the intelligent end point machine was installed about a month ago, and the company still has some old vehicles that are about to be phased out. According to the person in charge of Beijing Yuyang Taxi Company, more than 1,500 vehicles in Yuyang Taxi Company have been replaced with new equipment, and more than 500 vehicles will be installed with new equipment.

　　It is also understood that the current taxi company authorities have not yet required the use of this equipment, so some taxi companies have not yet installed it, especially some smaller taxi companies, which have not been equipped with new equipment due to financial reasons.
