Putin and his enemies

　　Liang Qiang

　　After successfully completing the procedural transfer of power, Putin has undoubtedly established his own era. With his superb political skills and strategy of governing the country, he not only became an outstanding great politician in this century, but also is likely to become a great leader in Russian history.

　　Even so, there are still many people who oppose Putin in this country, and their relationship with Putin also reflects the political evolution of this country in the past eight years under Putin.

　　Media people who pursue the truth

　　The first battle Putin won in his political career was the Chechen war, which made him jump from an unknown politician to a new political star. But it was the Chechen war that made him encounter his first political enemy-the media people who pursued the truth.

　　After the end of the Second Chechen War, the separatist movement in Chechnya began to transform into a terrorist movement, which successively created several major terrorist incidents in Russia. Although the terrorists were finally brought to justice, the measures taken by the Russian authorities in response to these terrorist incidents were questioned. Especially represented by the Beslan hostage incident in August 2004, after paying a heavy price of more than 400 deaths and more than 700 injuries, Putin, who once became a national hero since the end of the Chechen war, suffered the first crisis of confidence since he took office. Despite the official ban on the media, the truth that was revealed one after another made many people question the performance of powerful departments and Putin himself in this crisis: For example, the invincible "signal flag" troops only sacrificed 19 people in dozens of previous operations, but why did they pay a huge price of 10 deaths and 26 injuries in this operation? Some independent military critics believe that Putin’s talk about "peaceful settlement" at the beginning of the hostage crisis has caused confusion in the thinking of the special forces, which has led to differences within the special forces on how to rescue the hostages. In the previous handling of the hostage incident in Moscow theater, Putin took the advice of special forces and released anesthetic gas into the theater. As a result, more than 160 hostages died of suffocation, and the "signal flag" troops responsible for this incident were accused. Therefore, the "Signal Flag" and "Alpha" teams did not form a unified strategy in dealing with this hostage incident. By the time the fighting started,The two sides have not even reached a consensus on the offensive route and the position of the other side’s firepower. Besides, has the authorities been concealing the number of casualties? The official death toll is 338, but Izvestia believes that this figure is far less than the actual death toll. According to their investigation, the death toll should be around 400 to 600. "Izvestia" also said in the report that so many deaths could not be entirely caused by terrorists, and the special forces were probably killed by mistake in a chaotic gunfight because they lacked unified command in preparing for the rescue of hostages. These reports in Izvestia angered Kegong. The day after the hostage incident, Sarik, editor-in-chief of the newspaper, suddenly submitted his resignation. According to Russian government sources, before Sarik announced his resignation, Russian President Borodin personally called the boss of the Russian newspaper group where Izvestia was located.

　　Due to the huge consequences of this incident, the Russian Duma also had to set up a special investigation Committee on Beslan incident, but the result was just a routine matter. The victims of the Beslan hostage incident, dissatisfied with the official conclusions, spontaneously set up an independent "Beslan Mother" Committee, demanding that the authorities disclose all the facts and agree to the involvement of international professional institutions in the investigation. The movement has also become a rare anti-Putin group that can survive all the time.

　　Before the Beslan incident, Anna Park Anna Politkovskaya, a female journalist of Russian newspaper Novaya Novosti, had already started an independent investigation into the hostage incident in Moscow theater in 2002. Because it involves powerful departments and the military, such in-depth investigation has always been a "forbidden zone" for Russian media. Before that, several journalists were assassinated because of the investigation. However, this did not stop those who have their own independent thinking ability in the Russian press from thoroughly investigating and publishing the truth. As a rare expert on Chechen issues in Russian press, PoPark Jung Su Kofskaya concentrated all her energy on Chechen issues after the Beslan incident. Under the increasingly strict control of Russian media, she published two monographs abroad in succession, giving a detailed disclosure of the Beslan incident and the illegal acts of Russian troops in Chechnya. In 2005, after the "color revolution" broke out in Ukraine and Georgia, she repeatedly criticized the "crimes" of Putin’s system and predicted that a national revolution would break out in Russia soon. This made her a thorn in the side of various political forces. In September, 2006, Bo Park Jung Su Kofskaya was mysteriously shot and killed, becoming the 42nd journalist killed for work in Russia in the past 15 years. Due to the special status and international reputation of Bo Park Jung Su Kovskaya, the case caused an uproar, and many famous politicians at home and abroad, including Gorbachev, expressed their concern. Russian Attorney General Chaika also announced that he would personally investigate the case, but until now, Russian officials have still failed to give a satisfactory result. Since then,On the one hand, Moscow strengthened its crackdown on terrorism in Chechnya, on the other hand, it began to control the press in 2006. The consortia directly controlled by the Kremlin, such as Gazprom and Rosneft, began to March into the media, and many well-known independent media, including Izvestia and Independent TV stations, were acquired. Putin’s support rate has also increased from less than 50% after the Beslan incident to 70%, and has remained at this level.

　　A covetous oligarch

　　The year 2004 was a watershed in Putin’s political career. This year, the Yukos case, the most important economic case in Russia after the founding of the People’s Republic of China, ended with the victory of the state procuratorate. There is no doubt that Putin won the battle between regime and oligarchy, but he also paid a high price for it and made new enemies for himself. This man is the owner of Yukos, the former richest man in Russia, Khodorkovsky.

　　In the Yeltsin era, oligarchs enjoyed great economic and political privileges, but in the minds of ordinary people, they were synonymous with country thieves. Mr. Khodorkovsky can now appear in the Russian political arena as a new dissident, which is largely due to this major case of the century. Although he has become a penniless poor man and a prisoner, all the punishments given to him have enhanced his political prestige. After the final ruling of the Yukos case, Khodorkovsky’s presidential campaign support rate once rose to 8.3%. In the public declaration after the verdict, Mr. Khodorkovsky also clearly stated his political ambitions. "I will work with you, all those who want to freely express their opinions on their own country, people and our common present and future." I firmly believe that I will live with you in a country where freedom is everywhere. " Most of Khodorkovsky’s supporters are young people and people from big cities, and they will have an important influence on the future political trend of Russia.

　　The reason behind the Yukos case was originally thought to be the action of the new owner of Kegong to destroy the covetous oligarchs by administrative means. But with the passage of time, the true meaning of this case began to appear. According to the research of Autef Ping, a political scientist at Moscow University, with the rapid development of Russian nationalization after the victory of Yukos case, a number of new oligarchs surfaced. They are mainly composed of President Putin’s cronies and aides, many of whom are from the security intelligence agencies like Putin. They control the nine largest and most profitable state-owned enterprises in Russia. One common feature of these nine large state-owned companies is that they control the economic lifeline of Russia and monopolize some major industries in Russia. With the rising prices of crude oil and various raw materials in the international market, the profits of these nine large Russian state-owned companies have also risen rapidly, thus bringing huge capital gains to this interest group. At present, the group has controlled more than $200 billion in assets in Russia, accounting for 40% of Russia’s annual gross national product. Ping Autef believes that in Yeltsin’s era, a few billionaires plundered ordinary people, while in Putin’s era, "some billionaires plundered other billionaires". Deriagin, director of the Russian Institute of Globalization, put it more bluntly: "What we have here is just a new group of chaebols replacing the old ones. In other words, the powerful chaebol replaced the commercial chaebol. "

　　Now, no one in Russian oligarchs dare to make any comments on the political and economic decisions of the Kremlin. They are no longer the tycoons of the Queshan Club in Yeltsin’s era, but become well-behaved businessmen, or change their flags and be willing to drive for Putin. A handful of oligarchs opposed to Putin are either exiled abroad or exiled to remote Siberia like Khodorkovsky.

At the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, walking through the millions of acres of forest in Saihanba, I felt the sky blue and green trees, green everywhere and cool breeze blowing gently.

Yuan Zhongwei, the third-generation forester of Saihanba Machinery Forest Farm, pointed to a piece of Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica more than one meter high on the rocky sunny slope of Juzigou in Matikengying Forest Area of Qiancenban Forest Farm in Saihanba, and said that these trees were the new green they planted in the cracks of the stone this year.

"Afforestation on stony sunny slopes is a world-class problem. Some experts once said that it is difficult to plant trees here. In 2011, when I came to Saihanba, I was catching up with Israel ‘ Three generations of Lin ’ The Saihanba people, who are the main force, launched a general attack on the100,000-mu rocky sunny slope with little soil, steep slope and difficult water storage. " Yuan Zhongwei recalled.

The rocky sunny slope of Juzigou is 1600 meters above sea level, with a slope of 30 degrees, and the thickest soil layer is only 10 cm, so the road to afforestation is full of difficulties. After repeated trial planting, they found that Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica was drought-resistant and cold-resistant, and had low requirements for soil and climate, and eventually became the main tree species for afforestation on rocky sunny slopes.

Choosing good afforestation tree species, the road of afforestation on rocky sunny slope has just begun.

"There are three main difficulties in tackling afforestation: thin soil layer, less water and difficulty in planting trees." Yuan Zhongwei told reporters that there is only a thin layer of soil on the rocky sunny slope. In order to ensure the survival rate of saplings, they transported some soil from other places to cover it. In order to ensure sufficient moisture, they use film mulching technology to fix moisture. When it rains, rainwater can flow along the film to the roots of Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica, and at the same time, it can also ensure that water does not evaporate.

In addition, planting trees and transporting seedlings on the hillside is also a big problem, which can only be carried by mules and carried by people. It takes more than an hour to get down once.

Saihanba people planted Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica on stony sunny slopes. Yuan Zhongwei

The tree is alive. Yuan Zhongwei and his colleagues have long had their own plans on how to protect this piece of Pinus sylvestris forest on the hillside.

"In fact, when planting trees, we took into account that most of these slopes are steep and difficult to raise, so we left enough room for Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica to grow. Only 55 trees were planted per mu, and the afforestation density was half less than that of the flat land." Yuan Zhongwei said.

Nowadays, at first glance, the once desolate rocky sunny slope of Saihanba has become an evergreen forest, and the contiguous Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica is lush. Just this year, the task of afforestation on the rocky sunny slope of Saihanba Forest Farm was basically completed, and the survival rate of afforestation reached over 90%, and remarkable results were achieved in preventing wind, fixing sand and conserving water sources.

"At first, when we planted trees on stones, everyone was a little hesitant, but we were greatly encouraged by the thought that the foresters of the older generation would turn millions of acres of desert into millions of acres of forests. Today, we have also built forests on the barren hills, so that the barren hills are covered with new green and the stones are blooming. " Yuan Zhongwei said proudly.

Especially in the last year, Saihanba accelerated the afforestation on the rocky sunny slope and completed more than 1,700 mu of afforestation.

Prosperous times make forests flourish, which will benefit future generations. This year marks the 60th anniversary of the establishment of Saihanba Mechanical Forest Farm. With the hard work of generations of Saihanba people, the ecological benefits of Saihanba have become more and more remarkable. Forests and wetlands conserve 284 million cubic meters of water every year, releasing 598,400 tons of oxygen, fixing 860,300 tons of carbon dioxide and completing 160,000 tons of carbon sink transactions.

Today, the "three generations of Lin" have taken over the banner of their predecessors and continued to write the green legend of Saihanba with their youth and blood, so that this piece of green will last longer.

　　-Israel invaded Lebanon

　　On June 6, 1982, on the pretext that its ambassador to Britain was assassinated by Palestinian guerrillas, Israel dispatched more than 100,000 army, navy and air force to launch a large-scale attack on the Palestine Liberation Organization guerrillas and Syrian troops in Lebanon. It took only a few days to occupy half of Lebanon. This is the biggest war between Israel and Arab countries since the death of four Middle East wars, and it is called the "Fifth Middle East War".

　　War background

　　Generally speaking, the cause of the Lebanon-Israel war is still the continuation of the Palestinian dispute. The main purpose of Israel’s invasion of Lebanon is to destroy the Palestine Liberation Organization, seek to establish a pro-Israel regime in Lebanon and crowd out Syrian troops in Lebanon.

　　In order to establish their own country, the Palestinians established the Palestine Liberation Organization in May 1964 and launched a war with Israel. The PLO guerrillas are based in neighboring Arab countries, mainly in Syria and Lebanon. In 1970, the headquarters of the PLO and the main guerrilla force led by it entered Lebanon from Jordan, and later directly intervened in Lebanon’s domestic struggle, propped up and armed Islamic forces, and cracked down on pro-Israel Christian forces, gradually taking control of southern Lebanon and Beirut, the capital, and becoming a "country within a country". And build military facilities, attack and shell northern Israel from time to time, especially in the fourth Middle East War, the PLO guerrillas assisted Egyptian and Syrian troops to launch guerrilla warfare and attacked Israeli military bases, warehouses and radar stations. Become a menace to Israel.

　　In 1982, Israel felt that the time had come: first, the war between Britain and Oman broke out and became the focus of international attention; Secondly, the Iran-Iraq war continues, and the two countries have no time to take care of it. There are contradictions between Arab countries that support Iran and Iraq, and the Arab world has been torn apart; Third, the domestic situation in Syria, which may support and cooperate with the PLO during the war, is unstable, and there are also contradictions between Palestine and Syria; Fourth, we can use the pro-Israeli forces in Lebanon-Christian armed forces; Fifth, after the return of Sinai Peninsula, Egypt and Israel have reached a settlement, and Egypt will not get involved in the war.

　　Military forces of all parties before the war

　　I. Armed forces in Lebanon

　　War course

　　In the first stage (June 4-13), Israel launched a full-scale attack, and the PLO and the Syrian army suffered heavy blows, and the Israeli army surrounded the western part of Beirut.

　　On June 4, Israel dispatched planes to attack Beirut and the PLO guerrilla base in southern Lebanon.

　　At 11 o’clock on June 6, the Israeli army dispatched four brigades with about 20,000 people. After five hours of artillery and aviation fire preparation, with the support of helicopter gunships, naval, air and artillery fire, it launched a sudden attack on the PLO guerrillas in the west, middle and east on the front of 53 kilometers wide.

　　1, the ground forces attack

　　The West Road is the main direction of the Israeli army, and has invested more than five brigades. The first echelon, with two armored brigades, each with 200 tanks and armored vehicles, set out from Nahariya and Rushhanikla, surrounded Sur in Nakura and Bint Jubail through the areas controlled by haddad militia and United Nations forces, and launched siege fighting with the cooperation of airborne troops and landing troops and Lebanese haddad militia. At that night, it carried out street fighting and was attacked by the PLO guerrillas. Two brigades of the second echelon (an armored brigade and a mechanized brigade) entered the battle at 1800 hours, and one of them moved eastward to cooperate with the middle road; A brigade marched northward to encircle the PLO guerrillas south of the Litani River. On the 8th, the third echelon of the Israeli army entered the battle, continued to attack the north and surrounded Damour. However, to the south of the city, Saadia, only 19 kilometers away from Beirut, was stubbornly resisted by the PLO guerrillas, and its northward advance was blocked. On the 9th, West Road Israeli troops occupied Sidon and Damour, and landed in Halda with a battalion of troops. When the PLO troops retreated from Damour, they blew up the bridge. On the 10th, the Israeli army, consisting of 6 brigades, 35,000 men and more than 300 tanks, with the cooperation of Christian right-wing militia from the north, besieged Beirut and bombed Beirut’s western and southern suburbs international airports in turn. Israeli ships blocked Beirut from the sea. The PLO made great efforts to strengthen the defense in Beirut West Area and repelled the Israeli attack at the international airport and Halda area. The PLO armed forces killed Major General Yekutiel Adam, the commander-in-chief and deputy chief of staff of the Israeli army at the front line near Damour. On the 11th,The main force of the Israeli army arrived near Beirut International Airport, and the other part fought against the Syrian army. In order to negotiate with the PLO, Syria declared a ceasefire with Israel according to Israeli conditions when the PLO was in extreme difficulties, and the ceasefire took effect at 12 o’clock local time. Since then, Syria and Israel have stopped fighting. On the 12th, the Israeli army continued to attack the PLO position in the southern suburbs of Beirut, which met with stubborn resistance from the PLO armed forces. At 19: 00 GMT, the ceasefire between Israel and Palestine came into effect. Seven hours later, the two sides opened fire again. On the 13th, the Israeli army entered the eastern part of Beirut, and immediately, with the cooperation of the Phalangist militia, the Israeli army surrounded about 8,000 PLO guerrillas in the western and southern parts of Beirut.

　　With the middle road as the direction of assist, a brigade, the first echelon of the Israeli army, set out from Shemola area on the morning of 6th, crossed Haldali, surrounded Fort Shojaei, and the main force Nabatiyah attacked. On the afternoon of the same day, the Israeli army began to storm Fort Shojaei and conquered it at dawn on 7th. An armored brigade of the second echelon entered the battle, besieged Nabatiyah with the cooperation of paratroopers, and broke into the city at 9: 00 on the 7 th. A small number of troops started street fighting with the PLO guerrillas, and the main force continued to advance northward, and the day before yesterday, it went out to Jiejin area. With the cooperation of the Israeli army on the East Road, after the capture of Jiejin City, they divided into two roads, all the way west, and participated in the siege of Zahrani and Saida; Journey to the south, attacking Syrian armored forces in Shufu area, launched a tank battle with Syrian army there. The Syrian army lost 150 tanks. On the 9th, Israeli troops parachuted near Aindala. With the cooperation of airborne troops, the ground troops captured Aindala, and then took control of the Beirut-Damascus highway.

　　East Road is the containment direction, and an armored brigade of the first echelon of the Israeli army launched an attack on Sheba. Later, it developed an attack on the Bekaa Valley, containing and monitoring this direction, and cutting off the ties between the PLO guerrillas and the Syrian army. On the 7th, after the first echelon captured Sheba, the second echelon entered into battle and launched an attack on Hasyaba. After succeeding, it launched an attack on Syrian defensive positions in Lasia and Kaukaba. On the 8th, after capturing the towns of Lasia and Kaukaba, they marched northward along the west side of Bekaa Valley, pointing to the last section of Beirut-Damascus Highway, in an attempt to cut off the Syrian army’s retreat and block reinforcements. On the 10th, the Israeli army fought fiercely with the Syrian army in the east of Lake Karun, killing an armored brigade of the Syrian army. From September 9 to 11, Syria lost about 150 tanks in the battle.

　　2. Air combat in Bekaa Valley

　　In order to seize the air superiority, Israel decided to attack Syria’s missile base in Bekaa Valley to eliminate its air defense capability. This is also one of the main purposes of the Israeli invasion of Lebanon.

　　Bekaa Valley is located in the eastern part of Lebanon near the Syrian border. It is a long and narrow strip from south to north. The mountains on both sides of the valley are continuous and the terrain is dangerous. The main ground troops stationed in Lebanon are deployed here. In order to protect this unit from Israeli air strikes, Syria has deployed air defense units with Sam-6 missiles as the main equipment in the Bekaa Valley since May 1981.

　　At about 2 pm on June 9, the Israeli army dispatched 96 F-15 and F-16 fighter planes for high-altitude cover, and under the command of E-2C early warning aircraft, F-4 and A-4 attack planes bombed the missile base in the Bekaa Valley violently.

　　When the Syrian army learned of the Israeli air raid, it dispatched more than 60 MiG-21 and MiG-23 fighter jets from all over the country, gathered in Bekaa, and launched an air battle with the Israeli army. Due to the electronic interference of the Israeli army, the Syrian army aircraft lost contact with the ground after taking off, and the anti-aircraft missiles also lost control after launching. The quality and equipment of Israeli pilots were better than those of the Syrian Air Force, and they took the initiative in the air. However, the Syrian Air Force was inflexible in tactics and relied too much on the command of the ground command post, resulting in passive beatings in the air. On the first day of air combat, the Israeli army destroyed 19 positions of Syrian air defense missile company and shot down 29 Syrian aircraft. On the 10th, the Israeli army dispatched 92 planes of various types to attack the Syrian army’s Lebanese command post and the nearby air defense missile base. The Syrian army took off 52 planes to fight, and as a result, 25 planes were shot down and 7 air defense missile companies were destroyed. Syria has been operating in the Bekaa Valley for more than 10 years, and the air defense system costing $2 billion was destroyed, while Israel lost only 10 aircraft, including 6 drones and helicopters.

　　It took only eight days (June 6-13) for the Israeli army to advance more than 90 kilometers, occupy about 3,000 square kilometers of Lebanese territory, destroy all the bases of the PLO guerrillas in southern Lebanon, wipe out a large number of PLO effective forces, seize all the PLO warehouses in southern Lebanon, and surround the PLO headquarters with 2,000 people and 5,000 armed men in the west and south of Beirut. At the same time, it dealt a heavy blow to the Syrian army.

　　In the second stage (June 14th-September 15th), the PLO withdrew from the west area of Beirut, and the Israeli army won.

　　On June 14th, after fierce fighting, the Israeli army took control of the runway of the international airport. On June 16th, with the cooperation of the Phalangist militia, the Israeli army captured the Science College Building, an important stronghold for controlling the airport. On the 17th, the Israeli army shelled the international airport and nearby areas, took control of Hadile International Airport, and further reduced the siege of the PLO headquarters. On the 18th, the Israeli army announced a ceasefire to the besieged PLO, but demanded that it lay down its arms and withdraw from Beirut, which was rejected by the PLO. On the 22nd, the Israeli army attacked the Syrian army again, and occupied Hamdoon, forcing the Syrian army to retreat, thus tightly controlling the west area of Beirut.

　　From June 26th, the Israeli army continued to strengthen its troops surrounding the West Beirut and its defense against the Syrian army. By July 18th, the troops surrounding the West Beirut had increased to about 35,000 men in seven brigades, with about 700 tanks and 710 large-caliber artillery pieces. Trying to cooperate with political negotiations with military pressure, forcing the PLO to withdraw from Beirut West Area.

　　On June 27th, the seventh emergency special session of the General Assembly adopted a resolution demanding that Israel cease fire immediately and withdraw its troops from Lebanon unconditionally. At this time, in order to preserve its strength, the PLO agreed to leave Beirut West. On the 28th, the PLO put forward three conditions for Israel to withdraw from Lebanon: (1) Israeli troops should withdraw 5 kilometers from the south of Beirut; (2) Keeping a symbolic Palestinian military unit in the Lebanese army; (3) Keep the political structure of the PLO in Beirut. Israel rejected these three conditions, demanding that relevant PLO groups must surrender their arms to the Lebanese Army and all PLO members should withdraw from Beirut and Lebanon. On July 6, the PLO refused to be escorted by the US military, demanding that a multinational peace force be deployed in Beirut to escort the PLO armed forces to evacuate safely. On August 1st, the Israeli army captured the international airport, entered the museum area in the west area of Beirut on the 4th, surrounded the PLO headquarters building on the 5th, and bombed the PLO headquarters building on the 6th. During this period, the Israeli army also bombed the Bekaa Valley.

　　On August 12th, PLO announced its willingness to withdraw from Beirut West Zone. From August 21st to September 1st, more than 12,000 PLO headquarters and guerrillas were evacuated from Beirut West Zone to eight Arab countries including Jordan, Iraq, Tunisia, Sudan, Syria, Algeria, South Yemen and North Yemen. 25,000 Syrian soldiers stationed in Beirut West also withdrew to Bekaa Valley on August 30th and September 1st. From 21 to 25, French, American and Italian soldiers of the multinational force arrived in Beirut in batches to perform the task of guarding the withdrawal of the PLO and Syrian troops from the western part of Beirut. On September 10-13, the multinational forces also left Lebanon one after another.

　　On September 15th, the Israeli army moved into the west area of Beirut on the grounds that Lebanese President Bacher Gemayel was killed. Under the pressure of international public opinion, on September 29, the Israeli army withdrew, and multinational peace forces returned to Beirut West District to maintain order. But a large number of Israeli troops still occupy it. After five months of negotiations, Lebanon and Israel signed a withdrawal agreement. However, both Syria and the PLO opposed this agreement and the agreement was abolished. Since then, the Israeli army has unilaterally withdrawn from Lebanon in batches.

　　In this war, more than 3,000 people were killed or injured in the saline-alkali land of the PLO, more than 100 tanks were destroyed, 500 guns were fired, and more than 400 secret warehouses were occupied. The Syrian army suffered more than 1,000 casualties, lost more than 400 tanks and 58 aircraft.

Sudden visit promotes the landing of FSD in China

In May, 2024, the CEO suddenly appeared in Beijing, and the core goal of this trip was to promote Tesla’s fully automatic driving (FSD system) in the China market. Musk has repeatedly stated that FSD is Tesla’s and his most important technical field.

Musk’s trip to Beijing has two major goals. He hopes to be allowed to transmit the vehicle driving data collected by Tesla in China to foreign countries for training the FSD algorithm. Automobile data is very important for the development of driverless technology. Having a large number of driving data in real scenes can greatly improve the accuracy and reliability of the algorithm.

Musk will seek China’s approval for the full implementation of the FSD system in China. At present, FSD has been approved in the United States and other countries and regions, but it has not been approved in China, the world’s largest market. Musk’s trip is intended to convince the China government that Tesla’s FSD system has the ability to operate safely and reliably in complex road conditions.

Goal 1: Training algorithm for data transmission in China.

When Musk was in China, he reiterated that Tesla will invest nearly $10 billion in training and reasoning artificial intelligence this year, especially the AI technology related to driverless driving. This shows that he has high hopes for the landing of FSD in China and is willing to invest a lot of money in training.

To achieve this goal, the key lies in obtaining the permission of China government to transmit the massive vehicle data collected in China to foreign countries. Due to the consideration of data security and privacy protection, China has strict control over cross-border data flow. Musk will start negotiations with China on this trip.

If it is allowed to transmit data, Tesla will be able to optimize and train the algorithm of FSD by using a large number of real driving data collected in China, a complex road environment, thus greatly improving the applicability and safety of the system on the roads in China. This is crucial for the full landing of FSD in China.

Goal 2: Seek the approval of China government for the full implementation of FSD.

Another important goal of Musk is to persuade the China government to approve the full implementation and commercialization of the FSD system in China. At present, FSD has been approved to go on the road in American states, but it has not been approved in China, a huge potential market.

Musk’s trip may provide a lot of test data and evaluation reports for the safety and reliability of China’s FSD system to prove that FSD has the ability to operate safely and reliably in complex urban road environments.

If it can be approved by the government of China, it will be a major breakthrough in the commercialization of FSD on a global scale. China is not only the largest new energy vehicle market in the world, but also one of the countries with the most complicated road conditions. Once FSD has landed in China, it will lay the foundation for its landing in other markets in the world.

China government attitude

Facing the above two demands of Musk, the attitude of China government will directly determine the process of FSD landing in China. Judging from the available information, China has an open but cautious attitude towards the landing of FSD in China.

Has passed the data security certification.

It is worth noting that the cars produced in Tesla Giga Shanghai have passed the automobile data safety certification of China government and become a foreign-funded automobile enterprise with this certification.. This laid the foundation for Tesla to transmit data in China to foreign countries.

All parts of China have lifted the ban on Tesla vehicles, which will help Tesla to further expand in China and create a good environment for FSD to land in China.

Or allow the test demonstration first.

Despite certain convenience, the China municipal government seems to be still cautious at present, or support Tesla to test and demonstrate in a limited range in China, and has not fully approved the full landing and commercialization of FSD in China..

This cautious attitude stems from concerns about the safety of driverless technology. The complicated road traffic environment in China brings great challenges to the applicability of FSD system. The government needs more time to assess the risk of FSD landing in China.

The FSD has not been fully approved yet.

Although Musk’s trip has made some progress, the China government has not yet given the green light for the FSD to fully land in China. Musk’s trip also conveyed Tesla’s sincerity and determination to land FSD in China.

The two sides may further discuss issues such as data transmission, test and demonstration scope, and regulatory rules. If the negotiations go smoothly, the landing of FSD in China is just around the corner.

Progress of FSD landing in China

Although the China government hasn’t completely given the green light yet, after Musk’s visit to Beijing, the process of landing FSD in China is gradually advancing.

Tesla China website updates the purchase page

After Musk’s visit to China, the FSD purchase page on Tesla China official website has changed from "to be launched later" to "to be launched soon", which indicates that the landing process of FSD in China is accelerating.

Previously, Tesla China owners were unable to purchase and use the FSD function without the approval of the China Municipal Government. Buying page updates now means that Tesla is expected to launch FSD service for China car owners in the near future.

Musk invested heavily in AI and driverless technology.

During his stay in China, Musk also revealed that Tesla will invest nearly $10 billion in artificial intelligence and driverless technology this year. This huge investment fully demonstrates Musk’s determination to put FSD on the global stage and his firm confidence in the technology prospect.

This investment will be used for algorithm training, hardware upgrade, test and verification, etc. to continuously improve the performance and security of the FSD system and prepare for its landing in more markets.

Musk attaches so much importance to FSD because he firmly believes that fully automatic driving will completely change the way of travel and become the mainstream technology in the future automobile industry. Once the FSD is fully implemented, it will greatly improve traffic efficiency, reduce accident rate and reduce energy consumption and emissions.

The core goal of Musk’s surprise visit to Beijing is to promote Tesla’s all-FSD in the China market. He hopes to be allowed to transmit the vehicle data collected in China to the training algorithm abroad, and seek the approval of China government for FSD to go on the road in China.

China government is open but cautious about the landing of FSD in China. On the one hand, Tesla has obtained data security certification, and restrictions on its vehicles have been lifted in various places; On the other hand, China has not yet fully approved the full implementation of FSD, and may support a limited range of testing first.

Despite this, after Musk’s visit to China, the landing process of FSD in China is accelerating. Tesla’s China website has updated its FSD purchase page, and Musk will also invest heavily in AI and driverless technology, demonstrating his determination to make FSD a global success.

EQ platform, every car will be scolded once, but there are still sales. Who is buying it?

Mercedes-Benz, an automobile brand representing exquisite craftsmanship and luxurious quality, has also been actively deployed in the field of electrification in recent years, and launched EQ series electric vehicles. howeverCompared with its brilliant performance in the fuel vehicle market, the response of EQ series in the market is not enthusiastic. Sales are also extremely bleak, and EQ models are ready to cut prices by 100,000. …

First of all, the lack of product strength under the platform of oil reform is one of the important factors leading to poor sales of EQ series.As the representative of the oil-to-electricity platform, Mercedes-Benz EQ naturally has no advantages over the pure electric platform being developed..

CLTC battery life:

Es8′ s playing and singing life is 605, and Mercedes-Benz 609 is equal. The whole system comes standard with double motors, starting with 600 horsepower and EQE with only 400 horsepower.

Power chip:

Weilai comes standard with 4 Orion-X computing chips, with a computing power of 1016tops. On the other hand, there seems to be one over there, but it is smart, and it has already reached L2.

Hub tire:

Weilai started with 255/50 tires here, with 265 wide tires; On EQE’s side, there are tires equipped with 235, so Mercedes-Benz’s blowing, pulling, playing and singing are cheating.

Dimensional comfort:

Looking at comfort, Mercedes-Benz has a wheelbase of 3030, a length of only 4.9 meters and a five-seat model; This way, the length of the car is 5 meters, and the wheelbase reaches 3070. It is standard in all departments, and the height is adjustable.

：

Furthermore, the awareness of Mercedes-Benz brand in the electric vehicle market is relatively low. Although Mercedes-Benz has a very high brand influence in the fuel vehicle market, in the field of electric vehicles, consumers are more inclined to choose new brands such as Weilai. These brands are more competitive and have stronger products in the electric vehicle market.

However, the characteristics of users in the domestic market are very strange. As long as it is a car, it can always be sold. Even if 500 thousand can buy this high-quality electric car,Still a few users buy Mercedes-Benz EQE cars? Is it just for a sign?

EQ series, as an industrial product from oil to electricity, is not only poor in internal strength, but also poorly designed in appearance. I really disagree with the design of the front face of EQ series.

But fortunately, Mercedes-Benz does not pit the poor. Whether it’s industrial waste or not doesn’t affect my cycling with one hand.

Plus2022 1.5L automatic comfort version, which is a compact car produced by, has been favored by everyone since its launch, and its sales volume has been among the best. Let’s take a look at its technical parameters and price. First, let’s see what it looks like. The body length of this car is 4670 mm, the width is 1806 mm, the height is 1474 mm, the wheelbase is 2688 mm, and the curb weight is 1265 kg.

The luggage compartment has a volume of 510 liters. The suspension system is equipped with the former McPherson independent suspension system, followed by the torsion beam dependent suspension system. The tires are equipped with 205/55R16,16-inch aluminum alloy wheels.

LED headlights, steering assist lights, halogen front fog lights, adjustable headlight height, delayed headlight turn-off, electric adjustment belt heating for exterior rearview mirror, automatic reversing and rain sensor wiper.

Leather seat, front seat manual adjustment, plastic multi-function steering wheel, color driving computer, 8-inch LCD instrument panel, engine start-stop technology, tire pressure alarm, and active braking.

Its central control is equipped with an 8-inch touch LCD screen, Bluetooth car phone, mobile phone interconnection mapping, voice recognition control system, original reversing image function, manual air conditioning, PM2.5 filter device in the car, and its gearbox is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission, (AT) front drive and electric sunroof.

Front row 12V power supply, front row double cup holder function, front row central armrest with storage box function, rear row air conditioning outlet with USB charging interface, rear row 4/6 folding seat.

The engine is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, with a horsepower of 113 HP and 145 Nm. The comprehensive fuel consumption needs 5.5 liters per 100 kilometers, and the maximum speed can reach 190 kilometers per hour.

Volkswagen plus2022 1.5L automatic comfort version, its official guide price is 139,900 yuan, and the current discount is about 30,000 yuan. The preferential price varies from place to place.

According to the latest industry sales data, in November 2023, the monthly retail sales of Kia EV5 in the domestic auto market was 104 units. It should be said that if we simply look at the sales scale, the sales data of KIA EV5 is really hard to be called wonderful, and it should not meet the expectations of the manufacturers.

Kia EV5

However, I think this sales data is of little reference significance. Therefore, as far as the current sales performance is concerned, it cannot be asserted that KIA EV5 has encountered setbacks. In other words, the performance of KIA EV5 in China can still be expected.

Friends who know the auto market should know that KIA EV5, as a brand-new, was officially listed on November 17th, 2023, that is, the opening day of Guangzhou Auto Show.

In other words, in November 2023, Kia EV5 was not the first full month of its listing in the domestic auto market. Obviously, its sales days are short.

Kia EV5

Moreover, generally speaking, the market awareness of a brand-new model needs to be gradually improved in the month when it is launched, so its sales volume will inevitably have a climbing period.

In view of this, Cheyu World has repeatedly expressed a view that the reference significance of the monthly sales of new cars is generally not great, and it cannot be used as the basis for whether new cars can continue to sell well.

As for the market prospect of this model in the domestic auto market, as mentioned above, I think we can still look forward to it. This is because in terms of product strength, the performance of Kia EV5 is still sincere.

Kia EV5

First, in terms of appearance, KIA EV5 is still very helpful. The popular elements, such as daytime running lights and vertical light source, front bumper decorated with black grille and silver ornaments, suspended roof and hidden door handle, large tail roof spoiler and bottom matte decorative board, are all presented in this exhibition.

Second, the battery life is good and it supports fast charging. It is understood that the KIA EV standard battery life version can reach 530 kilometers under specific working conditions.

As for the cruising range of the long-life version, it can reach 720 kilometers. Moreover, it takes only 27 minutes to charge the battery from 30% to 80%.

Kia EV5

Third, in terms of intelligence, KIA EV5 is equipped with a 27-inch integrated triple screen, and is equipped with the latest generation of ccNC intelligent internet entertainment system, which supports a number of practical apps.

Moreover, it supports OTA remote upgrade. In addition, the new car also adopts the Huai-dang operation mode. In the current auto market, this is also an element that is more favored.

What needs to be pointed out is that KIA EV5 has also shown some sincerity in terms of selling price. The actual sales price of some models is 10,000 yuan cheaper than the pre-sale price.

Kia EV5

I think this is more important. To a certain extent, this shows that Kia may be more pragmatic in pricing.

You know, after Kia EV6 was listed in the domestic auto market, the sales performance was not very brilliant. According to the comprehensive sales data of the industry, from August to November 2023, its monthly retail sales were 8, 96, 6 and 6 respectively.

We have said many times in previous articles that KIA EV6 has the strength of World War I simply from the perspective of product strength. The reason why the performance is not very good may be that the price positioning is a factor affecting sales. Therefore, I think it is a wise move that the starting price of KIA EV5 is lower than the pre-sale price.

Kia EV6

In view of this, I am optimistic about KIA EV5 in terms of product strength. As for the sales results in November 2023, it is really not enough to show its strength, and it is not of great reference significance.

Of course, it goes without saying that the current competition in the new energy vehicle market is fierce. As a brand-new model, Kia EV5 will inevitably face certain competition after listing. Here, we hope that it will achieve better sales results in the domestic auto market.

Finally, the sales data of car companies involved in this paper come from the official of car companies; The sales data of the involved models come from the comprehensive sales data of the industry released by the third-party platform;

The data description of the third-party platform shows that it is displayed in strict accordance with the corresponding relationship between sales volume and platform announced by automobile distribution associations and manufacturers, with an accuracy rate of over 99%, which is for reference only.

This article states:

1. This article is the original article of Cheyu World Operation Department, with the total number of No.10781. Some pictures are from the Internet, and the data and related materials marked with the source are all references.

　　Xinlang Technology Zhang Jun

　　At the end of 2013, Xiaomi started the eco-chain plan and set the goal of investing in 100 eco-chain enterprises within five years. As of June 30, the number of Xiaomi eco-chain enterprises has reached 89, which is getting closer and closer to Lei Jun’s goal.

　　In addition to the changes in numbers, Liu De, co-founder and vice president of Xiaomi Company and head of Xiaomi Eco-chain, told Sina Technology that the play of Xiaomi Eco-chain is also changing.

　　Take category as an example, from the initial category and field as the standard, to the current user group as the center. Therefore, the Xiaomi ecological chain has also expanded from the original mobile power supply, bracelets and other hardware products to consumer goods such as towels and electric toothbrushes. In the selection of enterprises, Xiaomi Eco-chain has invested in most startup companies before, and will also invest in medium-sized companies in the future. In addition, in the management of eco-chain enterprises, Xiaomi gradually gave up the practice of signing exclusive agreements, maintained moderate competition, and even let some enterprises that did not do well quit.

　　With the maturity of the style of play and system, the Xiaomi ecological chain, which originally grew up by relying on the Xiaomi brand dividend, has begun to bring irreplaceable value to Xiaomi in turn.

　　Taking Xiaomi’s offline channel Xiaomi Home as an example, Xiaomi Eco-chain provides it with a variety of products, which are combined into a single high-frequency shop through multiple low-frequency products, which is also the secret of Xiaomi Home’s high ping efficiency.

　　Recently, Lei Jun, chairman and CEO of Xiaomi, announced at the swearing-in meeting of mobile phone business that the shipment of Xiaomi mobile phones reached 23.16 million units in the second quarter of this year, and resumed rapid growth. Lei Jun also regards the competition for the international market as the third wave of China’s mobile phone industry after the rise of smart phones and the change of machines in the third-and fourth-tier markets.

　　In Liu De’s view, with the reappearance of the incremental effect of Xiaomi’s mobile phone, the Xiaomi ecological chain will usher in a new wave of dividends.

　　The secret of rise

　　Since the Xiaomi Eco-chain Plan was launched at the end of 2013, the companies under Xiaomi Eco-chain have expanded rapidly. In March 2016, this number was 55; In March of this year, the number increased to 77; As of June 30, Liu De revealed that the number of Xiaomi eco-chain enterprises has reached 89.

　　Although only more than 30 out of 89 companies have released their products, explosive products such as Xiaomi Mobile Power Supply and mi band have been born, with sales exceeding 10 million. As of March this year, among the 77 companies, there are 16 unicorn companies with annual sales exceeding 100 million yuan and 4 unicorn companies with a valuation exceeding 1 billion US dollars. In 2016, the revenue of Xiaomi Ecological Chain Company has exceeded 15 billion yuan.

　　Why can Xiaomi ecological chain rise? In Liu De’s view, the first is the strict standard of investment in Xiaomi ecological chain itself; The second is to enjoy the dividend of Xiaomi; The third is a good time.

　　Regarding whether a company deserves to be included in the ecological chain by Xiaomi, Liu De summed up the following principles:

　　1. Is it a big field or a big market, because the Xiaomi ecological chain model is bound to make some big markets;

　　2. Is there any shortage of products in this market? Only when there are pain points and shortages can you get a knife;

　　3. See if the products in this field can be iterated. If they can’t be iterated, the company can’t last;

　　4. Is it in line with Xiaomi’s user base? The closer it is to the user base, the better it will be;

　　5. Is the team strong in technology and a great knife?

　　6. Does the boss have the same values as Xiaomi, not making quick money and being a national enterprise?

　　It is on the premise of sharing common values that dozens of companies in the ecological chain can form an alliance and it is possible to jointly launch explosive products.

　　In addition to the explosive attributes of eco-chain enterprises and products themselves, Xiaomi bonus is the biggest external factor for the rise of Xiaomi eco-chain. Liu De regards millet as a hot stove, while the ecological chain uses the waste heat around it. Specifically, it is mainly the eco-chain companies that enjoy the dividends of Xiaomi in four aspects.

　　1. Xiaomi’s brand bonus, because there is a brand, it is easy to expand the category.

　　2, Xiaomi’s user base dividend, Xiaomi has more than 200 million users, many of whom are science and engineering men. What these users need is what Xiaomi wants to do.

　　3. Channel dividends, especially Xiaomi’s online sales ability and the whole network sales ability, now have the offline sales ability of Xiaomi House, including the ability of Mijia to have a new platform.

　　4. With the growth of Xiaomi’s overseas business, overseas business should increase by 200% or even 300% this year, so opening mobile phones overseas first will open the dividend of overseas markets in the ecological chain.

　　With the explosion attribute and Xiaomi bonus, Liu De told Sina Technology that the explosion of products still needs an industrial node.

　　He took Xiaomi mobile power supply as an example. In 2013, the global sales of notebook computers declined. Xiaomi judged that there must be a lot of surplus of 18650 batteries that are most commonly used in notebook computers, so Xiaomi mobile power supply decisively adopted 18650 batteries, which not only had high performance and mature technology, but also had a relatively low price at that time, which made Xiaomi mobile power supply win the market with high quality and low price.

　　"Including our mi band, Americans have been promoting this for ten years, and suddenly one day it is about to break out, and we will enter the market." Liu De said.

　　Play reform

　　After Xiaomi’s ecological chain gradually grew, Liu De said that he was often asked, "Xiaomi has invested in so many categories. Where is your boundary?" The problem. In fact, when the products sold by Xiaomi cover air purifiers, rice cookers, even towels and electric toothbrushes, Xiaomi users, media and netizens can’t sit still. How did Xiaomi change from a mobile phone company to a "department store"?

　　Faced with all kinds of doubts, Xiaomi shouted the goal of being a "MUJI in science and technology", and officially launched the Mijia brand in March 2016 to specifically carry eco-chain products.

　　With the Mijia brand, Xiaomi will not generalize the Xiaomi brand when launching eco-chain products, but will have a more accurate smart home brand. At the same time, on the basis of Mijia brand, the Xiaomi ecological chain will be smoother when products such as sweeping robots and laser tv are launched, and users will feel reasonable and not so exclusive.

　　Liu De took Mijia Youpin launched by Mijia as an example. At first, when Mijia Youpin sold towels, users were cursing. "Everyone thinks how Xiaomi sells towels. Are you still a technology company?" Some time ago, Mijia had products and even started selling underwear. At first, I was afraid of being scolded, but as a result, the users didn’t scold again this time. "Many users have accepted it. We started selling tea two days ago, and they can accept it." Liu De said.

　　In addition to brand independence, Xiaomi’s investment ideas are also being adjusted.

　　Xiaomi ecological chain was originally laid out by fields, such as smart white electricity, personal transportation, toys and so on. Now it is divided by user groups, that is, investing around Xiaomi user groups. "When we pay attention to the user base, we will provide services and products for him around the core user base of 224 million Xiaomi. You will find that it doesn’t matter whether we consider the boundary. As long as he needs it, we will do it early, if he strongly needs it, we will do it early, close to the mobile phone, and late from the mobile phone. "Liu De told Sina Technology.

　　Correspondingly, in terms of specific categories, the Xiaomi ecological chain used to be more about technology, 3C and household appliances, but now it has begun to pay attention to some fast-moving consumer goods and daily necessities. "It is getting farther and farther away from mobile phones, and the layout circle is getting bigger and bigger."

　　Now the Xiaomi ecological chain has also changed in enterprise selection and enterprise management.

　　At first, Xiaomi paid more attention to the start-up team, thinking that they were flexible and easier to adjust the team, with less investment in products and less risk. Now, Liu De believes that Xiaomi has invested in 80 or 90 companies, and the basic plate is already very good. Therefore, when looking for a company, he will start to pay attention to medium-sized companies, even invisible champions in some fields, and companies with first-Mover advantage.

　　In the management of eco-chain enterprises, Xiaomi will sign an exclusive agreement with the invested enterprises in the first two years of investment, and one investor in each field will promise not to invest in the second one within two years. "Two years later, the exclusive agreement period ended, and then there was no exclusive agreement, because we found that the exclusive agreement had the advantages of concentrating on fighting a big battle, but it also had some disadvantages. Once there is exclusivity, it will affect the competition of this company. " Liu De reflected.

　　For example, he said that Xiaomi had given the field of driving recorder to an eco-chain company before, but this company did not come out with products for two years, which led to Xiaomi not entering the field of driving recorder for two years. "This opportunity is too great. In Xiaomi’s business system, I want to be a driving recorder, and I will get great benefits if I go public early. Therefore, this form gives various eco-chain companies the feeling of starting to delimit the site. Our management is becoming more and more mature, and the companies that invest later will not plan the site, or maintain a certain degree of competition, otherwise we will encounter great competition outside the ecological chain system. "

　　In addition, even if an eco-chain enterprise is invested by Xiaomi, it will not sit back and relax completely. Liu De revealed to Sina Technology that at present, two companies have been eliminated by the ecological chain system, one is a pet tracker, and the other is a maternal and child air purifier. "We told him not to do this. There is no such market segment. He firmly believes that there is such a market, but there is actually no such market." Liu De said that in the end, these two enterprises were eliminated.

　　Borrow from Xiaomi

　　While achieving rapid growth with the help of Xiaomi dividend, Xiaomi ecological chain is also of great significance to Xiaomi.

　　After Xiaomi reached the top of domestic smartphone shipments in 2014, Xiaomi failed to complete the shipment target of 80 million units in 2015. Lei Jun bluntly said that it was not OK, and said that 2016 would be happy. Then in 2016, IDC data said that Xiaomi only sold 41.5 million mobile phones in the whole year, plunging 36% year-on-year.

　　In the difficult two years of Xiaomi, Liu De believes that the value of Xiaomi’s ecological chain is crucial.

　　"The first is to maintain the activity. While making up lessons, we are consolidating, adjusting the team and adjusting the products, while maintaining the activity. The second is to keep the heat. We constantly have new products that can keep the heat of the market and the heat of the media. " Liu De said.

　　The greater value is to take the opportunity to lay out new areas, such as the Internet of Things. According to the data released by Liu De at the annual conference of Mijia in 2017, as of May 31 this year, the total number of networked devices based on Xiaomi MIOT platform has exceeded 60 million, which has gradually spread all over the world in terms of geographical distribution, and the Xiaomi ecological chain has become the largest intelligent hardware platform in the world.

　　Another function of Xiaomi ecological chain exceeds Liu De’s expectation, that is, the expansion of user groups.

　　At the end of 2015, half of the Xiaomi ecological chain was Xiaomi users.Users and non-Xiaomi Android users each account for a quarter. By 2016, the proportion of Xiaomi users has dropped to one third, and the proportion of Apple users and non-Xiaomi Android users has also risen to one third. "This year, I think that non-Xiaomi Android users and Apple users will further increase, which shows that the products of Xiaomi Eco-chain are slowly beginning to exceed Xiaomi’s original user system, and more and more Apple users and more non-Xiaomi users come to use our products." Liu De said that Xiaomi’s eco-chain products have played a role in expanding the user base and developing new users for Xiaomi.

　　At the same time, Liu De said that as a Xiaomi ecological chain that used to rely on Xiaomi mobile phone dividends, it is time to help Xiaomi mobile phones.

　　In the two years when Xiaomi’s mobile phone encountered Waterloo, it was also the two years of the rise of offline channels. Lei Jun, who led Xiaomi to make up the offline channel, shouted the goal of opening 1,000 Xiaomi homes in three years, and the support of ecological chain is indispensable to opening and maintaining 1,000 Xiaomi homes.

　　In Liu De’s view, Xiaomi has completed Xiaomi’s product portfolio through the layout of the ecological chain in recent years. Combining multiple low-frequency products into a shop with high-frequency purchases is also the secret of Xiaomi’s home to achieve high ping efficiency.

　　Recently, Lei Jun announced that the shipment of Xiaomi mobile phone reached a record high in the second quarter of this year. With the expansion of Xiaomi’s offline channels and overseas markets, the mutual borrowing effect between Xiaomi’s mobile phone and Xiaomi’s ecological chain will be further revealed.

In this era of pursuing quality and detail, a high-quality men’s belt can not only enhance the texture of the overall shape, but also show personal taste. Today, what we want to talk about is such an eye-catching handmade belt-single-layer cowhide, cut in the whole, with a thickness of 5-5.5 mm, and three colors to choose from, which can be perfectly controlled in both business and leisure occasions.

From materials to craftsmanship, every detail reveals the craftsman spirit.

First of all, let’s talk about the material of this belt. Single-layer cowhide is used, which is not only durable and wear-resistant, but also presents a more natural and beautiful color change over time, just like recording the owner’s story. More importantly, it is made by cutting the whole piece, which means that each belt is unique and has no stitching marks, ensuring its structural firmness and aesthetics.

Secondly, in terms of thickness, this belt has reached a surprising 5-5.5 mm. This value is neither too heavy and clumsy, nor too thin to lose its due support. Just the right thickness makes the wearer feel comfortable under any circumstances, but also shows a low-key but luxurious atmosphere.

Three colors to meet different styles.

In order to let every consumer find the one that suits him best, the designer specially provides three classic colors to choose from: black, brown and dark blue. Whether you prefer a steady and restrained business style or a casual dress, there is always one that can perfectly match your daily wear.

It is not only an accessory, but also a carrier to convey emotions.

Of course, in addition to the advantages mentioned above, the most touching part of this handmade belt may be the emotional value behind it. As a gift for male friends or relatives around you, it is undoubtedly a very intimate and meaningful choice. Especially on the occasion of the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival, giving this small object full of heart to others is sure to make the recipient feel the warmth from the bottom of my heart.

In short, whether from the practical point of view, or simply for the pursuit of fashion trends, this man’s handmade belt is definitely worth having. It is not only a simple accessory, but also a beautiful declaration about life attitude and aesthetic pursuit.
