The choice of six gears-four models of six-speed manual transmission

  With the progress of science and technology, the transmission has entered a rapid development stage like other core technologies of automobiles, and the quietly rising gear number of manual transmission is one example. From the 4th gear initially adopted by Xiali, Jetta, Santana and other models to the most common 5th gear today, the performance of the car will be improved once the transmission is upgraded by one gear.


  Although the 5-speed manual transmission is still the mainstream in the market, more and more models have joined the 6-speed camp. Compared with the common 5-speed transmission, the 6-speed transmission sets a more ideal gear ratio, which increases the opportunity of high power output of the engine and improves the acceleration and climbing ability of the vehicle. At the same time, by adjusting the transmission gear ratio, the quality and effect of vehicle power output have been improved. At present, in addition to mazda 6, which has already been on sale, and Pentium, which has been tested in this issue, there are also models equipped with 6-speed manual transmissions.


  Junyi



  Although Dongfeng Nissan Junyi is not the first model equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission in China, it is the first MPV equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission.


  From the perspective of body size and wheelbase, Junyi is more like a hybrid car between compact travel car and MPV. Besides the headlights and air intake grille at the front of the car, you can find the design ideas of Tiida and Sylphy. Besides, the layout and working materials in the car are also very close to Tiida.


  Although the wheelbase of 2 600 mm is the same as that of Tiida and Sylphy, as an MPV, Junyi still faithfully adopts the 7-seat design. In most cases, the car in Junyi will not be crowded as expected, and the position of the second row of seats can be adjusted back and forth like that of the Tiida high-profile car, so that the passengers in the last two rows can adjust their leg space in time, which is also the best scheme to excavate the three rows of seats with a wheelbase of 2 600 mm The third row of seats can be hidden under the floor when not in use, and this position is not obtained by streamlining the spare tire. It’s just that the driver’s seat that can’t be adjusted in height is somewhat regrettable.


  Among all the products of Dongfeng Nissan, Junyi’s 1.8 L engine is "unique". This MR18D engine adopts C-VTC variable valve timing system, with a maximum power of 93 kW and a maximum torque of 174 N? M, the compression ratio is less than 10∶1, which favors the torque performance at low speed.


  Because the gear ratio of the 6-speed manual transmission is tight, the speed drop of each shift is smaller than that of the ordinary transmission, and the shift process is more stable. The speed of 6-speed manual transmission at 3 000 r/min is about 120 km/h, which is the same as that of 5-speed of many cars, so the effect of 6-speed manual transmission on fuel saving at high speed is not particularly prominent. The acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h is 10.5 s, while Junyi equipped with a 4-speed automatic transmission is 12.2 s. Obviously, a 6-speed manual transmission is more suitable for squeezing out the power of the engine.


  Junyi’s driving style is obviously biased towards comfort, and the power-assisted steering is very light. Even women can operate it with ease, but at the same time, it inevitably sacrifices some steering accuracy. Junyi’s engine and tire noise on the expressway are satisfactory. Although the chassis suspension lacks the obvious toughness of European cars, the adjustment is relatively solid and the road feel is very clear.


  In terms of safety configuration, in addition to double airbags and ABS+EBD system, Junyi series is also equipped with BA braking auxiliary system. In case of emergency, BA system can actively help drivers apply greater braking force to obtain more ideal braking effect.


  Like Yida and Tiida, if you like manual models, you should be willing to give up some configurations. At present, there is only one hand-held Junyi, and only the most basic configuration can be obtained. Intelligent remote control keys, engine anti-theft locking system, seat heating, front fog lights, side airbags and other configurations will not be available. In addition, Junyi’s full range of models currently have no skylights.


  The manufacturer’s guide price is 138,800 yuan, and the warranty period is 2 years and 60,000 kilometers.


  In China, the compact MPV is not an active market segment. Junyi with Nissan’s new generation engine and 6-speed manual transmission originally had a chance to make people shine, but the configuration table was too clear and watery, which made it difficult for people to make up their minds.

  Mazda 5



  As a new generation model of Prima, the new mazda 5 did not choose to be made in China, but came to the China market by importing. However, with the minimum price of 159,800 yuan (169,800 yuan for models with OBD), mazda 5 still has a chance to share the market share of domestic rivals such as Touran and S-MAX.


  Compared with the previous generation, the new generation mazda 5 has not only increased in size, but also greatly changed in shape, making it more dynamic. Narrow and sharp headlights and trapezoidal bumper grille can also be seen in Ford’s models with "dynamic design" recently. Mazda 5’s tail shape is quite simple, and the white and red triangle taillights are very eye-catching and have a high placement position, which not only adds a lively effect, but also increases safety.


  As a compact MPV on the same platform as Mazda 3, mazda 5 can’t see the shadow of any car inside or outside the car. The center console and transmission panel are T-shaped, with tough lines, which are completely different from the styles of mazda 6 and Mazda 3 that we are familiar with.



  The wheelbase size of 2 750 mm enables mazda 5 to create rich spatial changes. Among the three rows of seats in the car, the first two rows are left and right independent single seats, and the third row is a bench for two people. The most ingenious seat design is the second row, with a multifunctional storage box and a small seventh-person seat hidden under the two seats. When the left seat cushion is opened, the hidden seventh-person seat can be opened, while the second row of central armrests will be changed into seat backs. Although the seat area is not large, the second row of seats will be enough for three people to ride. If there is a third row of passengers coming in and out, they can be put away to create an in-vehicle passage. Open the seat cushion on the right side, and the built-in storage box can hold small items that you carry with you, which is convenient and practical. In addition, the second and third rows of seats can be completely laid down, forming a super-large storage space flush with the trunk floor. Mazda 5’s car doors are also worth mentioning. Instead of using the traditional car door opening method, it uses sliding doors, which is convenient for the rear passengers to enter and exit. However, because it is not electromagnetic, it takes some effort to close the door.


  All three imported mazda 5 models are equipped with 2.0 L engines, which are basically equivalent to the 2.0 L engines used in domestic Mazda products, so it is not difficult to drive a 1.5 t body. With the cooperation of 6-speed manual transmission, the maximum speed of mazda 5 manual transmission can reach 188 km/h, and the acceleration time of 0~100 km/h is 11 s, so the power performance is enough for ordinary families.


  As an entry-level vehicle with emphasis on cost performance, the comfort equipment of manual comfort mazda 5 is reduced, but the safety equipment and humanized equipment are retained. Although it is imported, mazda 5’s sales are through FAW Mazda’s channels, and the maintenance and repair work is also completed through FAW Mazda’s after-sales system, and the prices of related accessories and working hours are basically the same as those of domestic mazda 6 standards. Since only 700 vehicles were introduced to the domestic market in mazda 5 in the first batch, there was no preferential price, and the manual transmission model sold for 159,800 yuan.


  The warranty period of mazda 5 is 3 years and 60,000 kilometers.


  With good handling and creative combination, mazda 5 is undoubtedly a pleasing MPV, but the price of vehicles with OBD in Beijing market is 10,000 yuan higher than that announced at Guangzhou Auto Show, which gives us a modest surprise and reduces our price competitiveness.

  Corolla



  Since its birth in 1966, Corolla has developed to the tenth generation, which also shows the success of this model from one side. Although in appearance, Corolla is quite different from the previous generation models, and she successfully took off the hat of moderation and became younger and more dynamic, which is exactly the superb place of the designer. Through the local changes of the front and rear light groups and bumpers, Corolla has been completely transformed, but if you look closely, you can still find traces of the previous generation from the A-pillar, C-pillar and the proportion of the car body. In this case, the size of the Corolla has not increased much, except the width has increased by 55 mm, and the length and height have basically not changed. The wheelbase size of 2 600 mm is also inherited from the previous generation. The obvious increase is the kerb quality. The kerb quality of the two 1.8-L handbrake models is 1 285 kg and 1 310 kg respectively, which is basically close to the European rivals, which also shows the change in the design concept of the Corolla body.


  Like the appearance, Corolla’s interior is not reinvented, and all the trends in the car are based on ingenious improvement. Compared with the 1.6 L model, the Corolla 1.8 L interior has changed a lot, and the center console is X-shaped, which is more scientific and technological. Japanese cars can be in a strong position in the market competition, which naturally has its advantages. In addition to the humanized design of double-layer glove box, cup holder and storage compartment, the designer has also made great efforts on the back floor of Corolla, which is completely unaffected by the layout of exhaust system. The nearly flat floor is not far-fetched when it is full of three people, and there are not many A-class cars that can compete with Corolla in this regard.


  Corolla’s 1.8 L engine adopts Toyota’s dual VVT-i technology, which can adjust the intake and exhaust timing respectively, with a maximum power of 100 kW and a maximum torque of 175 N? M, but because it is located at home, Corolla’s power is not obviously abundant at low speed, but when it is above 3 000 r/min, the power output is the smoothest, and the 6-speed manual transmission is also easier for the driver to control the speed. At low speed, Corolla’s sound insulation and noise suppression performance in the car is quite outstanding, which is also one aspect that Japanese cars are superior to European models.



  It should be noted that the Corolla manual model needs to step on the clutch to ignite. The 6th gear of the 6-gear transmission is suitable for high-speed cruising, and it is unlikely to be used in urban road conditions. On the highway, the speed of the engine reaches 120 km/h at 3 000 r/min, which is not much different from the other 5 gears. The shift is clear and smooth, but the stroke is not compact. In addition, the reverse gear adopts reverse ring design, which needs to be adapted in the early stage.


  Compared with the previous generation, Corolla’s suspension structure has not changed much, and it still adopts the structure combination of front McPherson and rear trailing arm. The only difference is that the rear suspension adopts the design of separating shock absorber and spring, but the chassis adjustment styles of the previous two generations are quite different. Corolla didn’t completely compromise on comfort, but was tougher, which obviously helped the handling.


  Although there are two 1.6 L models that hold the bottom end, 1.8 L is the main product of Corolla, and there are also two hand-held models. Although the quality of Toyota products is excellent, compared with some competitors, Corolla’s configuration performance is not outstanding. The GL-i with a price of 144,800 yuan has no electric sunroof, leather seats, seat electric adjustment function, self-luminous instrument panel, 6-disc CD stereo, side airbags and side air curtains. If you want to get these equipment, you can only turn your attention to the GLX-i model with a price of 156,800 yuan. Compared with other brands, Toyota controls the prices of its 4S stores more strictly, but there is still a discount of about 5,000 yuan in the Beijing market.


  The warranty period of Corolla is 2 years and 50,000 kilometers.


  Although the sales volume is far ahead of the competitors, the price/performance ratio of Corolla is not outstanding. As Toyota’s most successful A-class car, Corolla’s global best-selling reasons are not only stable quality and balanced performance, but also good quality and low price. However, in China, Corolla’s positioning of itself is obviously quietly on a higher level.

  BMW 3 Series


  In order to make the price of BMW 3 Series approachable, the 320i elegant model abandons a series of luxury configurations, but for drivers who emphasize the sense of control, those comfort configurations are far less attractive than BMW’s 6-speed manual transmission, and the manual gear makes the 3 Series, which is good at control, more pure.



  The elegant 320i is priced at 308,000 yuan, which can be said to be the cheapest BMW car, but its birthplace is not Shenyang, China, but BMW’s German regensburg factory. Compared with the 3-Series luxury models, the elegant 320i is simple in everything, with no angel xenon headlights in the front, and i-Drive operating system in the car. The seats are made of fabric, and even the CD player is single-disc. However, if you look closely at the configuration list, you will find that the bottom line of BMW’s configuration is not low, but many safety equipment are not revealed, such as dynamic stability control system (DSC) and cornering brake control system (CBC). In addition, the elegant 320i has as many airbags as the 330i worth 580,000 yuan.


  From the tone of the interior, you can see the ability of 320i to create an elegant sports style. Except for the titanium and silver plaques, the whole car is mainly black, and without luxury, you can only concentrate on driving. Like other BMW products, the 320i elegant model also uses the push-button ignition mode, but the driver also has to step on the clutch when igniting.



  Compared with competitors with the same displacement, whether it is the maximum power of 110 kW or 200 N? The maximum torque of m, BMW’s 2.0 L engine is not a dazzling star, but with the help of electronically controllable valves and dual camshaft variable valve timing system, the elegant power of 320i will definitely be convincing. Regardless of the speed, the 2.0 L engine can make people feel abundant power. The acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h provided by the manufacturer is 9.0 s, which is 0.8 s faster than the automatic transmission model of 320i.


  The 6-speed manual transmission is the core selling point of the elegant 320i. The gear ratios of the 2 nd and 3 rd gears are very suitable for speed increase, and the rotation speed will rise quickly. However, in cities, the utilization rate of the 6 th gear will not be too high, and drivers should pay special attention to the positions of the 1 ST gear and the reverse gear, because they are placed on the left side, and the reverse gear has no obvious protection mechanism, so they need to be careful, otherwise it is easy to make dangerous mistakes.


  In order to emphasize the maneuverability, many adjustment settings of BMW products are very individual, especially the elegant 320i model. Besides the heavy steering wheel, the clutch pedal at the foot is also full of strength. Therefore, for most lazy people, it is not really a happy thing to drive a BMW on a congested road.


  Recently, the 3-series manual transmission model has been further improved, and the 325i elegant model, which is also equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission, has also been sold as an imported car, with a price of 399,000 yuan. Although the inline 6-cylinder engine equipped with 325i is BMW’s technical signboard, in terms of configuration, this elegant 325i continues to play the old idea of "emphasizing safety and neglecting convenience", and even lacks automatic air conditioning and rear air conditioning outlets. Compared with the 325i fashion model produced by BMW Brilliance, the cost performance is not outstanding.


  BMW’s warranty period for these two manual transmission 3 series models is 2 years, unlimited kilometers.


  Whether for brand appeal or handling performance, the manual gear of BMW 3 Series is full of temptation, but before you start, you’d better consider clearly whether these pure sports styles of the manual gear 3 Series can be readily accepted.

Tengshi D9 compared with Lantu dreamer, who is better for high-end MPV?

Speaking of Tengshi, there should be many people who must know each other. This high-end new energy brand with BYD and Mercedes-Benz as endorsements released a notice on April 1st and started its brand-new course. Coincidentally, Lantu Auto also took a fancy to the "cake" of luxury MPV market, both of which are new forces and luxury MPV. Lantu’s dreamer and Tengshi D9 should be regarded as the most direct competitors. Then, who is more qualified to sit on the top spot of domestic luxury MPV? Let’s compare it!

Appearance contrast

Dreamer and Tengshi D9′ s exterior design are all high-end executive MPV shapes, so they have square and wide body lines and a more atmospheric and stable image like traditional MPV.

Compared with the Lan Tu FREE, which locates the SUV, the straight waterfall air intake grille of the Dreamer’s car head has become larger in area, and a lot of chrome decoration has been used.

Viewed from the side, the front of the Dreamer is longer than the traditional MPV, and the 20-inch multi-spoke wheel hub conforms to its image of taking care of both business and home. In terms of vehicle size, it also completely surpasses the Buick GL8, which is almost equal to the V-class long wheelbase model.

At first glance, Tengshi D9′ s tall and plump front and the grille design with inverted trapezoid structure look a bit like Erffa. On the side of the car body, a prominent through waistline is added to the standard shape of high-end commercial MPV. In addition, as a medium and large MPV, Tengshi D9 also surpasses Buick GL8 and Erffa in size, but it is slightly different from the dreamer.

If we must compare the face value, Tengshi D9 is more in line with the author’s aesthetic standards for a high-end MPV.

Interior contrast

Dreamer’s interior adopts the multi-screen design of Lantu FREE. Although the screen lifting function is cancelled, it still looks very scientific and technological, and the interior materials and workmanship still maintain a high level.

Although the appearance of Tengshi D9 is basically divorced from BYD’s existing design framework, the interior is still full of "Diwei". The suspended central control panel and the dual-spoke steering wheel are familiar smells. Similar central control design is common in BYD’s 100,000-300,000 models, and now Tengshi, which is positioned at a higher end, is directly copied. Fortunately, Tengshi D9 uses better materials in leather and decorative boards, so the overall texture should be much higher than BYD’s.

Comparison of space comfort

In terms of comfort, the dreamer has an oversized and flexible space layout, a wheelbase of 3 meters 2, 2+2+3 seats and a central passage layout. The second row of seats also provides electric leg rest, lumbar support, seat massage, heating and ventilation functions, which can bring more comfortable feelings when riding. In addition, the second row also provides a small table board, the switch button of the electric sliding door, the air conditioning control panel, the cup holder, the USB charging port and the small drawer, which can be described as meticulous care.

The second row of Tengshi D9 is also full of materials. First of all, the function control area is placed on the armrest of the seat, in the form of a small LCD screen; In addition, the second row provides two large LCD screens for passengers to enjoy audio-visual entertainment. Not only that, the second row also provides a car refrigerator that can hold 8 bottles of water. As for the unexposed configurations such as small tables, Zhao Changjiang also said that "there is a solution".

Dynamic contrast

Dreamer will launch a pure electric version and a plug-in hybrid version. The plug-in hybrid vehicle is equipped with a dual-drive motor with front 130 kW/rear 160 kW, and the total power of the power system reaches 290 kW. At the same time, the vehicle is equipped with a 1.5T engine, and the total peak torque of the system reaches 610 Nm. The cruising range of pure electric mode (CLTC standard) is 82km, and the comprehensive cruising range (WLTC standard) is 720km.

The pure electric version is equipped with ternary lithium battery, with a maximum power of 320 kW and a peak torque of 620 Nm. Depending on the configuration, 82kWh and 108.7kWh batteries are provided, and the cruising range (CLTC standard) is 475km and 605km respectively.

The power of Tengshi D9 has not been announced yet, but it will provide two power forms of DM super hybrid EV, and Tengshi also promises that the comprehensive cruising range of vehicles equipped with DM super hybrid technology will exceed 1000 kilometers. With BYD’s new energy technology as an endorsement, the author is confident about Tengshi D9′ s battery life.

Write it at the end

Comparatively speaking, the internal and external designs of Dreamer and Tengshi D9 have reached the level of high-end MPV. In terms of performance, Tengshi D9 has BYD’s technical endorsement, so it will be more recognized in the market; However, in terms of selling price, Lantu Dreamer is 369,900-689,900 yuan, and the starting price of Tengshi D9 may be around 450,000 yuan. Therefore, on the whole, the competitiveness of the two models is quite equal. Which model do you think has a brighter future? Welcome to leave a message below to discuss with Xiaobian!

Should AI write papers on behalf of others?

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, June 21st 

  Xinhua News Agency "Xinhua Viewpoint" reporters Li Shuangxi, Li Wei and Xie Ying

  Recently, it is the peak period for college students to submit course papers, defend and review their graduation thesis. A survey by Xinhua Viewpoint reporter found that some college students are quietly using AI (artificial intelligence) writing software such as ChatGPT to write papers, or using AI to assist paper writing, such as listing outlines, polishing language and reducing repetition rate.

  Will AI writing software encourage academic fraud? Should I care?

  AI software to write papers

  Cheng Guangyu (pseudonym), a junior in a university in Beijing, will hand in four course papers this semester, each of which is required to be about 3,000 words. Cheng Guangyu didn’t spend time reading literature, sorting out, extracting and writing. He stayed up all night before handing in his homework and finished his paper with ChatGPT.

  "At first, I was worried about whether I could finish it. As a result, I gave ChatGPT a general direction, and it listed the outline of the paper and automatically continued to write, which was much better than me." Cheng Guangyu finished four papers in one night, and submitted them to the teacher after simple revision.

  According to the investigation in some colleges and universities, some college students use ChatGPT to complete course assignments, final papers and even undergraduate or master’s thesis. "The threshold for undergraduate graduation thesis is low, and I have no scientific research ability. Many people’s undergraduate papers are extracted and pieced together online, and it is more convenient to hand them over to artificial intelligence now. " Qiao Yifan (a pseudonym), a senior student at a university in Wuhan, said.

  AI writing software can be used in all aspects of paper writing, from outlining and writing some contents to polishing language and reducing repetition rate. However, a college student who has used AI writing software in a university in Hunan Province thinks that the effect of modifying and polishing articles with AI software is not bad, but it is not appropriate to use it for substantive research and elaboration of innovative ideas.

  The reporter found that AI writing software similar to ChatGPT is not uncommon in China. For example, Zhichuang helps AI, the secret tower writes cats, draws pictures and writes quickly, etc., and generally supports the writing of articles and papers. In addition, there are many articles teaching how to write papers with AI software on websites such as Zhihu and Xiaohongshu. In the experience sharing, some netizens said: "The teacher can’t see it at all", "Praise the AI ? ? paper for being well written" and "gave me excellent papers".

  During the interview, some college teachers also found the characteristics of AI papers. When examining an undergraduate’s thesis, a teacher majoring in international politics in a university in Jilin Province found that his thesis on Japanese culture was biased, with blunt and lengthy language and empty content. Under the teacher’s questioning, the students admitted that the paper was written in ChatGPT.

  In addition, some papers written with AI software are full of mistakes. "If you check it carefully, you will find that the links of the cited papers can’t be opened, the author’s name can’t be searched, the publication time, journals, pages, SCI divisions and other contents of the papers are all false, and even some historical events involved are out of thin air." He Shiming, an associate professor at the School of Computer and Communication Engineering of Changsha University of Science and Technology, said.

  "Help scientific research" or "encourage cheating"?

  Can ChatGPT be used to assist thesis writing? Many college teachers are controversial about this, including those who support users, those who resolutely oppose it and those who demand that it is strictly prohibited.

  It is understood that some foreign universities have explicitly issued regulations prohibiting the use of ChatGPT to write papers. In China, academic journals such as Journal of Jinan (Philosophy and Social Sciences Edition) and Journal of Tianjin Normal University (Basic Education Edition) have successively issued explanations on the use of artificial intelligence writing tools, indicating that if the author uses relevant tools in his paper creation, he should explain the degree of use in detail in his article.

  For research purposes, Yang Zhiping, a professor of Marxism at Northeast Normal University, tried to use AI writing software. He found that in order for AI to provide correct ideas, it is necessary to constantly "feed" the corpus to AI. In the questions and answers with AI, the original vague research ideas gradually became clear. "It’s like exchanging ideas with an expert with encyclopedic knowledge. Through the collision of ideas, new academic viewpoints can be inspired." Yang Zhiping said.

  "AI writing software is just like search tools such as Google and Baidu. When it first appeared, it always caused people’s panic." Yao Yuchun, dean of the Institute of Social Sciences of Jilin University, said, but fundamentally, AI writing software is still a tool. It is a product of science and technology and needs to be treated dialectically. If students only use it for limited purposes, such as searching documents, listing outlines, sorting out ideas, etc., it is understandable and cannot be banned.

  Fu Weidong, a professor at the Department of Artificial Intelligence Education of Huazhong Normal University, believes that both manual writing and AI writing should be regarded as academic misconduct as long as they exceed the prescribed repetition rate according to the existing academic paper norms. In addition, AI writing is based on the retrieval and processing of existing knowledge. Repetition of sentences or plagiarism of ideas is inevitable, which will inevitably involve disputes over intellectual property rights and portrait rights, and should be strictly regulated.

  A college teacher in Hunan province is worried that if students are allowed to use AI to write, it will not be conducive to cultivating students’ scientific research ability. In the long run, it is easy for students to develop inertia and form a bad academic atmosphere.

  In addition, the information security problems that may be caused by AI software have also attracted attention. Li Huilai, a professor at the School of Artificial Intelligence of Jilin University, said that some countries in Europe wanted to "block" ChatGPT because of data security problems, because there was a hidden danger of "collecting, using and disclosing personal information without consent" when it grabbed data. Li Huilai pointed out that when domestic students use ChatGPT, it may lead to the abuse of domestic scientific research results, and there are data security risks.

  Actively respond to the academic challenges brought by AI technology

  Some industry experts believe that, like search tools, as a technology, the popularization and application of AI is irresistible. The application standards of AI writing tools should be formulated as soon as possible to standardize the scope of use; At the same time, change the traditional evaluation mechanism of students in colleges and universities, and provide AI writing detection tools for researchers. In addition, it is necessary to strengthen independent research and development in the field of artificial intelligence and master core technologies.

  Xiong Bingqi, president of 21st Century Education Research Institute, believes that it is difficult to ban AI writing software, and we should try to "keep the devil in a bottle" and make clear the scope and degree of use of AI writing tools. "It is better to face up to it than to avoid it. Colleges and universities can even offer public courses using AI writing tools, and clearly teach students the norms, methods and academic ethics. "

  He Shiming believes that the duplicate checking software used in colleges and universities has been difficult to cope with AI writing. At present, universities and academic journals lack special software to detect AI writing, and it is inevitable to "hang a leak" only by human eye recognition. It is hoped that relevant domestic institutions will develop software to identify AI writing, and provide a safer and more reliable anti-academic fraud system for colleges and universities.

  In order to avoid the influence of AI writing, some foreign universities are reducing the open homework after class, and putting more emphasis on classroom homework, handwritten papers, group work and oral test.

  Xie Di, an associate professor at the School of Public Administration of Hubei University, suggested that the education department should pay more attention to students’ problem consciousness, observe, understand and analyze the society’s nature, and increase the proportion of content with substance such as experiments and investigations, rather than overemphasizing the form.

  ChatGPT has powerful functions and may bring a new scientific and technological revolution. Li Huilai believes that domestic research and development of artificial intelligence should be strengthened. At present, some domestic companies are also developing similar products, but they are still in the initial stage and cannot form strong competition with ChatGPT.

  "It is necessary to use the window period to accelerate the development of Chinese AI applications and AI paper detection systems, and strengthen the independent research and development of artificial intelligence core technologies." Fu Weidong said.

Best this week! Indian films have also produced unspeakable social truths.


Special feature of 1905 film network Among this week’s new films, an Indian film called India is hard to ignore.


Listen to the name, it is full of "taste".


The douban score of 7.3 is not outstanding, but it is enough to rank first in the reputation of new films on the weekend of "film shortage".

The slogan is also very domineering: changing 600 million Indian women was recommended by Bill Gates every year.


This is not an exaggeration.


Among the ten most inspiring things selected by Bill Gates in 2017, this film is on the list. Bill Gates commented: "The Toilet Hero is a Bollywood romance of newlyweds, which has aroused public concern about India’s urgent health problems."


That’s right. Frankly speaking, whether it’s an image or a narrative technique, "Toilet Hero" has nothing outstanding. But its value lies in its courage to uncover the most painful scars in Indian society and face up to social problems such as health and safety, gender discrimination and official corruption. This courage deserves a standing ovation.


Before watching the film, you might as well torture yourself with three souls: 


Can you accept going to the toilet in the wild every day?

Can you accept walking to the toilet outside the village at four o’clock every morning?

Will you marry a man who has no toilet at home?

 

The above three "shy" questions are exactly the dilemmas that the heroine Jaye and hundreds of millions of Indian women must face in The Toilet Hero.

 

In the movie, the new wife, Jaye, unwittingly married to an Indian rural area without a toilet, and faced the embarrassment of having to go to the toilet in the wild every morning.

Jaye and the Women’s Federation of the same village walked to the field to go to the toilet.


Facing the toilet problem, her husband, Keshav, racked his brains to come up with tricks such as rubbing other people’s toilets, rubbing train toilets, and even taking risks to steal public toilets. However, he found that traditional concepts are like iron walls, and it is difficult to get a toilet.

Husband "steals" for his wife to move the toilet.


Jia Ye Yiran, who received a college education and grew up in an enlightened family, proposed "divorce without a toilet" and became a national event on TV. More and more wives and women have followed suit, and a toilet revolution that is expected to rewrite the fate of "600 million women" is on the verge.

For most China audiences, the national revolution caused by a toilet in "The Toilet Hero" is so strange and magical. But the words "adapted from real events" remind us at all times that everything in the film was once a living fact.


In 2011, a wife named Anita Nally in Madhya Pradesh, India, ran away from her husband’s house after a few days of marriage because she couldn’t stand going to the toilet outdoors, and boldly put forward the appeal of not going home without a toilet. Finally, with the help of the government, Anita’s husband finally built a toilet. She was also commended by former Indian President Pratibha Patil.


So in reality, how serious is the open toilet problem in India?

 

According to the statistics of UNICEF in 2016, the global open-air toilet population totaled 950 million.


Among them, the countries and regions with the highest proportion are not Africa with relatively backward economy and infrastructure, but India, which is famous for its high technology.


According to statistics, a total of 569 million Indians still go to the toilet in the open air, accounting for nearly half of the total population, far higher than the population without mobile phones. More than 53% of households (the proportion in rural areas is as high as 70%) have no toilets.

 

The weight of Indian outdoor excrement can reach 100,000 tons every year, which is enough to fill the whole Wembley Stadium in London.

 

Some people say that the whole country of India is like a large open-air toilet, which is not an exaggeration.


In the fields and lanes of India, people carrying buckets in the film can be seen everywhere. There is no doubt that they are walking on the way to the toilet. …


The water in the bucket is used for cleaning after defecation (please make up for it yourself during cleaning).

 

For Indian men, this does not seem to be a problem. For example, in the film, the father of the man chooses the canal at home to go to the toilet like no one is watching.


But for women, the inconvenience of going to the toilet in the open air can be imagined. For privacy and safety reasons, you can only choose to go to the suburbs to excrete in the dark, and you need to control it as much as possible during the day.


According to the survey, Indian women can endure for an average of 13 hours a day, which is undoubtedly a double torture to the mind and body.


Women who go to the toilet outdoors also need to guard against the harassment of hooligans at all times. The light will be swayed by the headlights and teased with words. Seriously, it will give malicious people an opportunity to cause irreparable harm.


Every year, tens of thousands of Indian girls who enter adolescence have no choice but to drop out of school because of the inconvenience of going to the toilet.


Not to mention the health problems caused by going to the toilet in the open air. According to statistics, nearly 400 children under the age of 5 die of dysentery every day in India, and the number of people suffering from chronic malnutrition due to digestive system diseases is even higher.

 

There are many dangers in going to the toilet in the open air. Why do Indians still go their own way?

 

On the one hand, traditional ideas and religious teachings are deeply rooted.


The Indian code of religion and behavior "Manu Code" wrote: "People should excrete away from their houses.",advocating" born in nature, transformed into nature ".

 

Repairing toilets at home means leaving dirty things at home. It is even more disrespectful to let the toilet coexist with the deity. This passage in the Code of Manu was also used by the elders of the village committee to educate Keshav, who proposed to repair the toilet.

Unexpectedly, Keshav’s next passage debunked the "hypocritical faces" of these so-called devout believers.

 

"Manu Code" not only stipulates that it should be excreted away from houses, but also stipulates that in order to protect the clean water source, people should not defecate near the river or water body. This is quite different from what the village chief and many Indians did.

Indians go to the toilet in the open air not so much because they believe in piety, but because of their own convenience and habits, they do not hesitate to use religion as a shield.

 

Indians’ reluctance to repair toilets is also related to the caste system.

According to the caste system, Indians are divided into four grades: Brahman, Khrushchev, Vedas and sudra. Besides this, there are "unacceptable untouchables", also known as "Da Park Jung Su".

 

In the traditional Indian concept, the "dirty work" such as cleaning garbage and toilets can only be done by Dalit class in Park Jung Su.

In India, cleaning up feces and garbage is done by people at the lowest level.


Therefore, even if toilets are repaired, high-caste Indians will not clean them themselves, but need to hire Da Park Jung Su to clean them. With the awakening of the Dalit class, this cost is getting higher and higher, which is why Indians are unwilling to repair toilets.


With the continuous development of economy and culture, the government gradually realizes the importance of health.


On the anniversary of Gandhi’s birthday in 2014, Indian Prime Minister Modi announced the implementation of the "Clean India" plan, allocating about 30 billion US dollars to build toilets nationwide and promote sanitary toilets. It is planned to completely eliminate the phenomenon of open-air toilets in 2019 and Gandhi’s 150th birthday.


Indian Prime Minister Modi


Now, a few years later, the government has built millions of toilets nationwide, but the problem of going to the toilet in the open air has not been fundamentally solved.


The so-called "public toilets" on the streets of India


The funds for repairing toilets were embezzled and misappropriated by governments at all levels. The repaired toilets lack maintenance, poor sanitary conditions, and many of them are occupied and reduced to barns and storage rooms.


It’s ironic that a man is peeing at the poster of "Toilet Hero".


In a report in National Geographic, Indian women reported that public toilets have long waiting time, poor sanitation and ventilation, often without water and electricity, and will be closed between 11 pm and 4 am. Even many people choose to go to the toilet in the courtyard of the public toilet while waiting, and the toilet loses its meaning.


Akshay kumar, the leading actor in the film, admitted frankly in an interview that he wondered why a country that can launch space rockets and is proud of its high technology can’t solve the "simplest" civilized toilet problem.


As the film says, "it is never easy to change tradition", and "Toilet Hero" is only a small step.


"I made this film to tell Indians that the power of change is in everyone’s hands. Like Anita, as long as everyone can make his own voice firmly, it will certainly affect the people around him, and society will certainly change, "kumar said.

Everything shown in The Toilet Hero may be curious, but it doesn’t need to be laughed at. At least, Indian filmmakers have the courage to expose their scars and face the pain. What about us?

Changan Automobile in the first half of the incremental difficult to increase profits, independent new energy brand sales accounted for only 20%, Avita half a year to sell less than 30,000

Recently, Changan Automobile (000625.SZ) has been moving frequently. After the dark blue G318 was launched in June, it has launched new products non-stop. The official account of Deep Blue Automobile said that the dark blue S07 was officially launched on July 25. Recently, Changan Qiyuan E07 has also been officially launched. It has opened blind ordering and plans to be officially launched within the year.

Securities Star noticed that the cumulative sales of Changan Automobile hit a new high in the first half of this year, of which the independent brand new energy increased by nearly 70% to 299,100 units year-on-year. But this is not without hidden worries. Since the "Shangri-La" plan was announced in 2017, Changan Automobile has been accelerating the pace of new energy transformation, planning to bid farewell to traditional fuel vehicles in 2025. But at present, fuel vehicles are still the keynote of Changan Automobile to maintain the market, and the sales of independent brand new energy only account for 20% of the total sales. Among the three independent new energy brands, Avita ranked last, with sales of only 29,000 units in half a year. In the face of the slow transformation, Changan Automobile has stepped up its offensive of new energy products.

Although the total sales are good, but the performance of Changan Automobile is disappointed. The company expects that the net profit attributable to the parent in the first half of this year will drop by 67.33%. What is puzzling is that the net profit after deducting non-profit in the same period last year in the performance forecast shows that it is 1.242 billion yuan, which is 267 million yuan less than the data reported in last year’s interim report. According to the data reported in last year’s interim report, the net profit of Changan Automobile after deducting non-profit in the first half of this year has declined properly.

The pace of transformation is slow

According to the data, Changan Automobile’s main business covers the R & D, manufacturing and sales of complete vehicles, as well as the R & D and production of engines. The company actively develops intelligent networked new energy vehicles, and builds five independent automobile brands: Avita, Deep Blue Automobile, Changan Qiyuan, Changan Attractive Force, and Changan Kacheng to promote the electrification transformation of independent brands. At the same time, it produces and sells joint venture brand models through joint ventures Changan Ford and Changan Mazda.

In order to better adapt to the wave of new energy, Changan Automobile announced the launch of the "Shangri-La" plan in October 2017, that is, to complete the creation of three new energy special platforms in 2020; to completely stop the sale of traditional fuel vehicles in 2025, to achieve the electrification of the whole spectrum of products, and to invest 100 billion yuan in the entire new energy vehicle field. With the acceleration of transformation, Changan Automobile has now deployed three smart electric brands: Avita, Deep Blue Automobile, and Changan Qiyuan.

In the first half of this year, Changan Automobile handed over a bright sales report card. The company’s cumulative sales in the first half of the year were 1.3341 million vehicles, an increase of 9.74% year-on-year, a new high in seven years. Among them, the cumulative sales of self-owned brand new energy in the first half of the year were 299,100 vehicles, an increase of 69.87% year-on-year.

Securities Star noticed that Changan Automobile has been developing in the field of fuel vehicles for many years, and its models are mainly fuel vehicles, and new energy vehicles have not yet formed a strong influence. According to the plan, Changan Automobile will stop selling traditional fuel vehicles next year, but the current sales of its own brand new energy account for only 22%. It can be seen that in the nearly 7 years since the "Shangri-La" plan was proposed, the development of new energy of Changan Automobile has been rather slow.

In terms of sub-brands, Changan Qiyuan delivered 73,000 vehicles in the first half of this year, Avita delivered 29,000 vehicles, and the delivery volume of dark blue vehicles increased by 96% year-on-year to 83,900 vehicles.

Avita and dark blue cars are brands built to cater to the mid-to-high-end market, but they are not as good as expected in terms of sales. In 2023, dark blue car sales will be 137,000. This year’s sales target is 280,000 domestic sales, and the global sword is 450,000. Looking at China alone, dark blue cars will double sales this year. But it has only completed about 30%, and about 33,000 cars will be sold every month in the second half of the year to complete the task.

Securities Star noticed that there were three products on sale before the dark blue car, namely the dark blue G318, the dark blue SL03 and the dark blue S7, of which the dark blue G318 was just listed in June this year. This also means that the sales responsibility for the first five months of this year is the dark blue SL03 and the dark blue S7. It is not easy to hit the annual target with only two products.

On the other hand, Avita’s sales performance has not been very good since it was delivered in December 2022. Although the sales volume in the first half of the year exceeded that of the whole of last year, the half-year completion rate was about one-third of the annual sales target, and it was also at the end of a number of new power brands.

Faced with the slow pace of transformation, Changan Automobile has started a new round of product offensive. Earlier this year, Changan Automobile declared a number of new models to MIIT in one go, of which Changan exclusive 6 models. Judging from the product launch in the second half of the year, in addition to the dark blue S07, which was officially launched on July 25, the dark blue car will launch L07 in September, and the S05 will also be launched this year. In addition, Changan Qiyuan will launch Changan Qiyuan E07 in addition to the current A05, A07, and Q05; in the second half of the year, Avita will fully enter the range extension field, and then Avita 07 will be launched, as well as a new sedan product.

Past data has changed, and sales in other sectors account for nearly 30%

2024 semi-annual performance forecast shows that Changan Automobile is expected to achieve a net profit of 2.50 billion yuan – 3.20 billion yuan in the first half of the year, a decrease of 58.19% – 67.33%; the corresponding net profit after deduction 800 million yuan – 1.50 billion yuan, an increase of -35.58% to 20.79%.

For the sharp decline in performance, Changan Automobile said that the main reason is that in 2023 Quarter 1 acquired Deep Blue Automotive Technology Co., Ltd., the original holding of its equity was re-measured at fair value to confirm non-recurring profit and loss of 5.02 billion yuan. It is reported that in 2023 Quarter 1, Changan Automobile spent 1.332 billion yuan to acquire a total of 10.34% equity of Deep Blue Automobile from Changxin Fund and Undertaking Fund, and the shareholding ratio of Deep Blue Automobile became 51%, thus forming a controlling stake.

Securities Star noted that in the first half of last year, Changan Automobile’s net profit and net profit after deducting non-profit were 7.653 billion yuan and 1.509 billion yuan respectively. The net profit after deducting non-profit shown in the performance forecast was 1.242 billion yuan, with a difference of 267 million yuan in the middle. Changan Automobile did not explain the reasons for the change in the data in the performance forecast, nor did it correct it in the previous announcement. If the data is reported in the first half of last year, Changan Automobile’s net profit after deducting non-profit in the first half of this year fell by 0.6% -46.99% year-on-year.

Due to the increase in income and decrease in profits of Changan Automobile in the first quarter of this year, the overall profit performance in the first half of the year was dragged down. The current revenue was 37.02 billion yuan, an increase of 7.14% year-on-year; the corresponding net profit attributable to the parent was 1.158 billion yuan, a decrease of 83.39%.

Fortunately, the performance has improved in the second quarter. The net profit of the parent is expected to be 13.4 to 2.04 billion yuan, an increase from the same month; the net profit after deducting non-profit is expected to be 6.9 to 1.39 billion yuan, an increase from the same month. Changan Automobile said that it is mainly due to the upward trend of the company’s brand, the optimization of product structure, and the stability of its own brand profitability; The profitability of the joint venture business has gradually improved.

In the field of joint venture brands, Changan Ford and Changan Mazda sold 19,500 and 5,500 vehicles respectively in June, both of which decreased year-on-year. However, the cumulative sales in the first half of the year still achieved growth, of which Changan Ford sold 111,600 vehicles and Changan Mazda 36,800 vehicles, an increase of 13.36% and 14.44% year-on-year respectively. During the same period, the sales of independent brands 1.1213 million vehicles, an increase of 9.88% year-on-year.

Securities Star noticed that the current support for the overall sales volume of Changan Automobile, in addition to Chongqing Changan, which accounts for the largest proportion, is the second largest other sector.

The June production and sales express shows that 375,000 of the cumulative sales of over 1.30 million vehicles in Changan Automobile came from other sectors, accounting for 28.11%, an increase of 0.48 percentage points from 27.63% in the same period last year.

Does BYD Han ev need to install chassis guard?

https://car3.autoimg.cn/cardfs/product/g31/M07/6A/89/800x600_0_autohomecar__autohomecar__ChtlyGXbLcqABwXdACoSzzdZfRU197.jpg

BYD Han EV is an electric car, so it doesn’t need chassis guard.

Chassis guard is a device used to protect the bottom of the vehicle, and the battery pack of electric vehicles is usually located at the bottom of the vehicle, so installing chassis guard may cause damage to the battery pack.

In addition, the chassis guard will also affect the aerodynamic design of the vehicle and reduce the cruising range of the vehicle. Therefore, it is not recommended to install chassis guards.

For BYD Han EV owners, in order to protect the battery pack, you can choose to install a battery guard. The battery guard can completely surround the battery, reducing the risk of battery bumping.

However, it should be noted that the installation of battery guard may affect the heat dissipation effect of the battery, thus affecting the performance and cruising range of the vehicle.

Therefore, before installing the battery guard, it is recommended to consult the advice of professional technicians.
