Foton Tuano V creates the fifth-generation light passenger era to meet the diverse needs of users

  Foton Motor, as a leader in the field of commercial vehicles in China, has always regarded light passenger as the strategic core business of enterprise development. After 23 years of continuous exploration and accumulation, Foton Tuano has built the world’s strongest light passenger product lineup. Adhering to the simultaneous development of fuel and new energy, domestic and overseas markets have made simultaneous efforts, comprehensively covering various sub-sectors, providing customers with the best and most efficient multi-scenario passenger transportation and logistics solutions. In December 2023, Tuano’s large V was launched globally, and oil and electricity were synchronized, marking the national light passenger entering a new era.

  Adhering to the "build a good car" big V came into being

  Looking back at the history of China’s light passenger development, the first four generations of light passenger were all imitating foreign technology and introducing domestic cooperation, and the main use of the products was focused on freight transportation. Foton Tuano independently innovated and developed, relying on product characteristics such as comfort, economy, green and balance, to widely meet the needs of passenger transportation and diversified modification, leading a new generation of national light passengers to go abroad and participate in international competition. This is the first globally oriented and highly scalable fifth-generation light passenger platform built by Foton Motor with the most stringent European Union regulations and standards: Tuano Big V. It can simultaneously expand the multi-technology routes of fuel, pure electricity, oil mixing, plug-in mixing, and range extension, with multiple driving modes of front drive, rear drive, and four-wheel drive. It provides three basic models of van, multi-function vehicle, and passenger car, and can flexibly expand special modification varieties such as RV, tool service vehicle, medical ambulance, and public inspection vehicle.

  Grade jump, the inevitable choice of upgrading

  At present, the demand for light passenger usage scenarios has been upgraded, and light passenger is no longer a simple means of transportation, but is transforming into household and passenger use. "There are many small and medium-sized VAN products on the market, but when you drive them out, you always feel that the grade is not enough, and you want a car with inside and face." In customer research, you often hear such a voice "In the past, the old sea lion was very good at pulling people, and it was convenient to get on and off the bus. Unfortunately, it is not allowed to be sold now, and IVECO’s car is too high." More and more users are putting forward higher requirements for appearance, grade, etc. Tuyano accurately grasps user requests and conforms to the trend of market youth. Once the Tuyano Big V was released, it attracted enthusiastic attention.

  The overall design style of the Big V is closer to the passenger MPV, with a simple front face and a "V-shaped" design language, making the vehicle more modern and more MPV-like. In addition, for the first time in the industry, the standard electronic power steering is equipped with low-speed labor-saving, high-speed and stable; standard electronic handbrake, parking starts more calmly. The Big V is not only light in driving control, but also more comfortable in riding. Passengers enjoy VIP independent space, and the leather all-inclusive seats are comfortable and breathable, and the grade is full.

  MPV-class driving + extreme space, the king of performance in large VAN

  With the improvement of the quality of life of contemporary people, the pursuit of vehicle comfort and handling is becoming more and more urgent. The Tuano Big V adopts a super chassis "comparable to MPV-level tuning settings", completely breaking the traditional perception of light passenger driving control. Compared with the traditional light passenger, it reduces the turn and roll by 18%, realizes easy emergency obstacle avoidance at high speed, and the mountain road driving is more stable; weakens the bumpy impact by 21%, and the speed bump is "flexible on the upper hurdle, and straightforward on the lower hurdle"; bid farewell to the status quo of the traditional light passenger "a set of chassis is used to the end", and combines the scene differences to professionally tune the passenger and cargo chassis.

  For some individual owners, the traditional big VAN has problems of excess space and insufficient flexibility. The Tuano Big V perfectly meets the demands of users. In terms of space, it has a limit of 5490mm, a blue brand car length and a short shaft version of 4990mm, as well as three top heights of 1990/2195/2480mm, which meets the height limit of 99% community basements and supermarket basements. At the same time, it pursues the ultimate utilization rate in terms of width. Under the inner width of 1750mm, the outer width is controlled at 1980mm, and the inner space is protected, and the outer appearance is smart; the highest inner height in the high-top model industry meets the professional modification such as sojourn and ambulance, and the outer height does not exceed 2.5 meters, which meets the height limit requirements of most roads and bridges.

  Foton Tuano not only wants to build a "good car", but also a good car that the common people can afford and use. In terms of energy consumption, the fuel car reaches an ultra-low fuel consumption of 7.0L for 100 kilometers, and the power consumption of pure electric power is only 17.7kWh for 100 kilometers. Not only is it comfortable to drive, has a large space, and is flexible to pass through, but also saves energy and is a good hand, which can be called "all-round big V".

349,900 yuan! The new Landscape Dreamer officially opened the pre-sale, and the divine sculpture CP ignited the audience

  [August 28, 2024, Chengdu] On August 28, the new Lantu Dreamer pre-sale conference with the theme of "Dream Sublimation" was held in Chengdu Science Fiction Museum. The new Lantu Dreamer is positioned as "Panoramic Luxury Technology Flagship MPV". This pre-sale has two versions: Kunpeng version The pre-sale price starts from 349,900 yuan, and the pre-sale price of the dry version equipped with Huawei’s Dry Smart Driving ADS 3.0 and Hongmeng cockpit starts from 469,900 yuan.

Further fill the sense of value of technology luxury MPV.

  At a time when the market structure of the automotive industry is reshaping and marketing is accelerating changes, various car companies are competing to show the latest and most innovative marketing cards, in order to unlock the survival rules of the traffic era and successfully break through the highly invaded competition. Lantu Automobile, which has always been evaluated by the industry as "good at making products, not good at marketing", is also boldly seeking changes in this unprecedented marketing revolution.

  At the pre-sale press conference of the new Landscape Dreamer, Gu Tianle and Li Ruotong, the Godly Condor CP, went across time and space, but Yang Guo’s mount was no longer "Brother Condor", but replaced by the new Landscape Dreamer. This new car interprets the brand connotation of "Dream Sublimation" in the dream chasing story told by the Godly Condor CP. Looking back at Landscape’s recent marketing actions, we can find that the change of Landscape’s marketing thinking is not only concerned with short-term traffic, but in deep resonance with users, watering the soil for the long-term growth of the brand and products.

  Divine Condor CP travels through the future to help pre-sell the new Landmap Dreamer

  The new Landscape Dreamer, as the first model jointly built by Landscape and Huawei, has the extraordinary strength of MPV smart ceiling level, and the location of its pre-sale conference is also quite futuristic: the main venue of the 81st World Science Fiction Convention – Chengdu Science Fiction Museum, the appearance of this building is like a "nebula-like" flapping wings, and the silver metal roof reflects dazzling light, which makes people feel as if they are in the future city, laying a full science and technology base color for the event.

  Another small climax of this pre-sale conference was the surprise reunion of Gu Tianle and Li Ruotong to the Divine Condor CP. For the post-70s, 80s and some post-90s, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu, a classic CP, are full of memories, and they were also selected by the majority of netizens as one of the three best CPs in Jin Yong’s pen. At the event, the two stars shared the joy of a long-term reunion, talked about the pursuit of life and dreams, and showed that they were not only the "dream CP" in the hearts of the audience, but also lived the dream in reality, which can be said to be a veritable "double winner". For the new Landscape Dreamer, the two stars gave high praise, and "Aunt" Li Ruotong strongly expressed her willingness to place an order for the new Landscape Dreamer on the spot, and ordered it as soon as possible after the event, becoming the first batch of car owners.

  In addition, adhering to the concept of "user first", Lantu also invited 100 car owners to the pre-sale of the new Lantu Dreamer, making it the "limited protagonist" of this exciting event, giving users a unique "value" experience. After the pre-sale conference, the media and users posted orders for the new Lantu Dreamer on the social platform, showing the luxury, intelligence, space and safety of the new Lantu Dreamer in a comprehensive way.

  It can be said that this pre-sale event, which integrates a feast of fashion vision, all-round experience of technological intelligence, and interpretation of lifestyle in the new era, fully demonstrates the determination and strength of Lantu’s marketing innovation. Unique venue selection, inventive star guests, and user-centered concepts are all highlights of Lantu’s opening up of ideas, setting a new benchmark for marketing innovation in the automotive industry.

  Focusing on the user, creating a "fan" circle

  In today’s car market, the "fan economy" is no longer unfamiliar, and its core lies in seizing the user’s mind. Behind the new Lantu Dreamer pre-sale conference, it is the careful interpretation of the concept of "customer first". In the marketing model, Lantu accurately locates the segmented population, not only meets the rational needs of users with immersive scene experience, but also innovates marketing from the emotional level, resonates with users at the same frequency, and three-dimensionally shows the brand temperature to win users’ emotional recognition.

  "In the current environment, users are more willing to get to know you through interaction, or through you to understand the products and brands behind you," said Lu Fang, chief executive of Landmap Automotive Technology Co., Ltd. "What should users see when they face Landmap? I think users want to face a warm person, not a cold organization."

  In the past two years, Lantu Automobile has been continuously innovating at the marketing level and has repeatedly made strange moves. For example, 2023 VOYAH NIGHT user night, users spontaneously light up their waists, and send users to large screens at home and abroad. On May 30, famous singer Tengger and popular variety show "Ace to Ace" host Shen Tao, together with Lu Fang, CEO of Lantu Automotive Technology Co., Ltd., and Shao Mingfeng, general manager of Lantu Automotive Sales and Service Co., Ltd., officially announced the pre-sale of Lantu FREE 318 in an interesting live broadcast at the 318 Sichuan-Tibet Line Zero-kilometer Self-Driving Tour Base Camp in Ya’an City, Sichuan Province. In June this year, Lantu FREE 318 was listed, and the 1200-kilometer long test live broadcast from Wuhan to Ya’an, to the automatic parking challenge on the big cliff of Longtou Mountain in Sichuan, Lantu Automotive Technology Co., Ltd. CEO Lu Fangjun personally went into battle. He said: "When I do live broadcasts and communicate with users on social media, I use it as a bridge or link between users and Landmap, or a bridge for users to understand Landmap."

  The pre-sale conference of the new Landscape Dreamer once again showcased new ideas, maximizing the release of the topic potential energy of Gu Tianle and Li Ruotong through the official end game, creating interesting, informative, terrifying, and popular events and content, hitting the user’s interest and resonance points from the emotional level, thus realizing the rapid detonation of the new Landscape Dreamer.

  Pre-sale price from 349,900 yuan, over one million luxury value

  Shao Mingfeng, general manager of Lantu Automotive Sales and Service Co., Ltd., believes that under the condition of user experience, based on the improvement of its own technical strength, it is necessary to let more C-end users know the brand, so "we have to fight for traffic, but do it positively".

  Indeed, blacksmithing requires its own toughness, and smart marketing methods may emerge in an endless stream, but the constant is that strength comes first. The power of Chinese luxury top products may be another reason why the new Landscape Dreamer can come out of the circle.

  At present, the Landmap Dreamer performs extremely well in terms of space, energy consumption, comfort, safety, driving control, etc. The ESSA architecture it adopts can be called the ceiling of the new energy architecture, reaching the specifications of the million-class luxury SUV chassis, and the 2000Mpa hot-formed steel cage safety body. It has five "world-first" technological innovations.

  The new Landmap Dreamer has carried out more than 1,000 configuration upgrades on the basis of the original excellent product strength of Dreamer, and the luxury has been upgraded, including the standard intelligent electric four-wheel drive system in the whole series, the only one million-level magic carpet chassis in the same class and CDC electromagnetic shock absorption, the longest support for 40 + hours, the longest continuous external discharge in the same class, the original luxury design in China, and the first equipped with Huawei Smart Driving ADS 3.0 and Hongmeng cockpit, which can support high-speed NOA and urban NOA, without relying on high-precision maps, and no map global communication. It can be said that the sense of value of China’s high-end MPV has been raised to a new height.

  In today’s increasingly competitive industry, various automakers have launched an all-round competition around technology, products, services, and supply chains. The new Landscape Dreamer pre-sale conference is undoubtedly another successful marketing attempt by Landscape, promoting the user’s spontaneous tap water effect and creating a new model for the pre-sale of the automotive industry.

  As Lu Fang, CEO of Lantu Automotive Technology Co., Ltd., said, "The change in marketing methods allows users to face warm people rather than cold organizations." Lantu not only uses millions of strength to give users enough experience value from the product level, but also uses novel marketing methods to penetrate the circle, narrow the distance between the brand and users, and let users feel the brand culture and high value recognition.

This Italian children’s choir is hard to get a ticket every year. How will they appear in Shanghai this year?

02:48
The Italian Antoniano Chorus ("An Tuan" for short) is no stranger to many audiences in China. Every New Year, the choir’s New Year concert in Shanghai has become a regular program for many parent-child families, and it is not difficult for parents of all walks of life to "grab tickets". Because every time, the tickets for the New Year concert will be sold out within 1 minute. This record has been maintained for many years.
Since its first performance in China in 2016, the troupe has held a New Year Chorus Concert at Shanghai Children’s Art Theater (SAIC Roewe Children’s Cultural Center) for five consecutive years. When the epidemic struck this year, foreign performing groups could not come to China. The organizer, Shanghai Children’s Art Theater, made a decision to continue to hold the Anzhuan New Year Concert in 2021 and put it on in a "cross-time" way.
This concert tried a brand-new stage technology, using high-definition video and holographic technology to realize the interaction between Italy and China. An Tuan will sing in Italy and interact with the China Sisters from a distance. There will be six concerts from December 31st to January 3rd. The concert on New Year’s Day will be broadcast live through Youku platform.
Liang Xiaoxia, general manager of Shanghai Children’s Art Theater, revealed that this New Year concert "through time and space" is the most difficult concert they have had in the five years since they introduced the troupe. In addition to the great technical difficulties, including the time difference and different ideas between China and Italy. However, because the Italian security corps is located in a high-risk area, it has also overcome various difficulties in rehearsal and filming. Mr. Cavalli Giampaolo, artistic director of ANTuan, said that it was the most difficult but also the warmest New Year concert that ANTuan had completed in the past 57 years.
Liang Xiaoxia said that the reason why we insisted on presenting the New Year’s Concert in this way this year was that we hoped to satisfy the thoughts of the Shanghai audience; Second, I hope that through this concert that spans time and space, there will be a warm connection between China and the international children. Just like the theme of this year’s New Year concert: "2021, More Love".
Affected by the epidemic, the real person did not come to the New Year concert to be put on hold.Every year, New Year’s Eve is celebrated with the songs of the troupe, which has become a fixed project for many China audiences to welcome the new year. This year, an Tuan can’t come to China, and there is no live concert. What should we do?
Finally, after consulting with Shanghai Children’s Art Theater, the troupe decided to present the New Year concert in this special period with high-definition video.
However, can the audience’s expectations be met by playing HD video alone, and how can the audience who go into the theater to listen to the concert have a unique live experience? After discussion, the Chinese and Italian teams finally decided to use holographic technology.
Holographic technology used to be used in concerts and other large-scale activities, but it is the first time in the world to be used in concerts, especially children’s chorus concerts. For this reason, the organizer invited the best professional technical team in China, used the world’s most advanced cable-stayed film projection technology, and equipped the top dance equipment in the industry to achieve the best imaging effect in the industry at present.
It is envisaged that the three tracks of the concert will be presented by holographic projection technology. On the stage, the pre-recorded singing video of the troupe will be presented by holographic technology, while the China Sisters Hydrangea Choir of the troupe will perform live, so the two choirs will present the effect of "singing on the same stage", and there will be an interactive experience of live performance and virtual imaging.
In the past, holographic film technology was mostly in the form of "single person and single film", but this time, the Chinese and Italian teams must solve the problem of presenting dozens of choir children on the same film at the same time. Not only that, but also will interact with the security group at the scene. The number of people, the complexity of design, the difficulty of shooting and the difficulty of the later stage are unprecedented for the technical team.
In order to solve this series of problems, the domestic technical team has produced a shooting guide with dozens of pages for ANTuan, explaining each shot, each angle and each group of protagonists in detail.
Because this is the first time that an Tuan has challenged holographic technology, the effect of the first shooting is not satisfactory. The teams in China and Italy overcame the time difference and communicated remotely all night. Finally, gather all the children in the choir again and shoot again.
Although there are great challenges and difficulties, Liang Xiaoxia said, "The impact of the epidemic has prevented the troupe from coming to the scene to perform, but at the same time, this situation has also made us think, open up more imagination and see if we can use scientific and technological means to make the performance team who can’t come to the scene personally bring a good stage experience to the audience."
Liang Xiaoxia said that the application of holographic technology in the New Year concert is also an attempt by Shanghai Children’s Art Theater to perform on the stage at present and in the post-epidemic era, which can provide reference and inspiration for the future.
Serious risk escalation of epidemic situation, bumpy recording and difficult transmissionFor the Italian Chorus Antoniano, the experience of this New Year concert is unprecedented.
Lombardia, where the choir is located, is listed as a high-risk area of red epidemic by the Italian government, and Italy is one of the countries with the worst epidemic in Europe. This year, almost all performances of the choir were suspended, including the children’s chorus gold medal competition that the choir participates in every year, which was also announced to be postponed until next year.
At the same time, due to the epidemic situation, the Italian national television team, which recorded the concert for ANTuan in previous years, was unable to assist in the filming this year, and the staff of the technical department of ANTuan made up the seats one by one at the first time, which solved the shooting problem.
However, the local government does not allow many people to enter the studio for recording. To this end, the security group specially applied to the Italian government, and after more than two months of examination and approval, it finally obtained special approval. Therefore, during the Italian epidemic, ANTuan became the only organization that was able to carry out multi-person shed recording.
During each rehearsal and recording, the local government will also appoint two health supervisors to be full-time inspectors at the scene.
The problems encountered in shooting are also continuous. Because there are 40 members in the official performance, according to the requirements of Italian epidemic prevention and control, only half of them can now enter the studio for recording. At the same time, when rehearsing and recording, each child should be separated by a safe distance of at least 1 meter. As a result, during the video recording in the studio, the children no longer stood on the chorus table, but stood on 23 little red dot landmarks which had been strictly measured.
In order to present the best visual effect, the troupe shot every song in the concert from multiple positions and angles, and it took a long time to shoot the material of 18 songs. But at the same time, how to "send" the massive materials of the whole New Year concert to China at the fastest speed has become another difficult problem under special conditions this year.
After numerous international discussions and various schemes, there are only one or two days left before the concert starts. Liang Xiaoxia and her team are still making various adjustments across the time difference every day, striving to make the concert present the best effect. In Italy, all the children and the conductor of the troupe are full of expectations for this unprecedented concert.
"So many times, the children didn’t complain, because the children themselves are very curious and looking forward to it. They will ask, can holographic technology really send us to China? What will we look like on China’s screen? "
Liang Xiaoxia said that since she introduced AnTuan five years ago, this children’s choir has been regarded as the most healing and joyful choir. Therefore, I hope that in this special New Year, more audiences can enjoy and share the warmth and healing brought by the concert.
