The editor has something to say: How will personalized Japanese brands compete?

    [XCAR editor has something original to say]

    For Japanese cars, if they are household names, I believe your first impression must be Honda, Toyota, Nissan or Mazda. No matter from the diversified product layout or the circulation of products in the market, the above brands are enough to hold up a world in the market. However, compared with these mainstream Japanese brands, there are also several Japanese brands with great personality competing in the market, namely Suzuki, Mitsubishi and Subaru, which we will discuss in this issue of Editor’s Talk. Let’s take a look at which products these three Japanese brands will rely on to make money in the domestic market in the future.

The editor has something to say.

    Suzuki’s self-salvation

    Suzuki is no stranger to domestic consumers, and has been taking the small car route in the domestic market. Although its Jimny model belongs to a niche model, it was once talked about by off-road enthusiasts. However, with the domestic competition for value, space and personalized consumption environment, Suzuki’s small car strategy has deviated from the market. For many years, it seems that the only Suzuki cars we are familiar with in China are Alto, Antelope and Swift. Although Alto is now renamed as New Alto and its appearance is much more fashionable, it is still what we call "Little Alto". The two relatively new faces, Kai Yue and Feng Yu, have only come out in the past two years.

    In addition, with the continuous decline of joint venture brand models and prices in recent years, independent brands have sprung up everywhere, and low prices are not limited to buying small cars. Compact or even mid-level cars may start with very low prices.

    For the dilemma of the Chinese market, in 2015, Suzuki shifted its strategic focus in China to Chang ‘an, and then the "1855 Strategy" was officially put on the agenda, that is, from 2014 to 2018, five new cars will be launched within five years. If we scrutinize the practical significance of Suzuki’s strategy in China, it is that Suzuki’s future products will no longer be limited to mini-cars and small cars, but also play with compact cars with higher market share and small SUVs that are more popular nowadays.

Changan Suzuki 2015 Qiyue

    In 2014, Changan Suzuki launched a new compact car, Kaiyue. As a compact car for home users, Changan Suzuki can make up for its lack of brand influence with price. The moderate appearance, spacious interior space, sufficient power and affordable price have well grasped the psychological demands of ordinary consumers in China.

    Qiyue entered the market at a low price to make up for its lack of brand influence, and promoted product sales with prices and benefits. However, since its listing in 2014, the sales situation of Kaiyue in China is not optimistic, and even it is gradually marginalized in the compact market. In the past, it was regarded as the "pillar" of Changan Suzuki, and it did not play a key role. Moreover, if the compact market is lost, it will be a big loss for Changan Suzuki.

    The advent of Qiyue is only the tip of the iceberg of Suzuki’s strategy in China. In 2015, Changan Suzuki went public in Vitera. This was after the cross-border SUV Fengyu once achieved good market feedback, Changan Suzuki made product layout in the small SUV market with great demand.

    Changan Suzuki Vitera is a small SUV with great brand personality. The new car inherits Suzuki’s classic hard-core style, and adopts double banner air intake grille. The front line is rough and sharp, and the lower part of the middle net extends downward through trapezoidal lines, further strengthening the solid and tough characteristics of Vitera. A waistline full of strength on the side of the car extends from the front to the rear, while the two-color car body with dynamic rim modeling adds a bit of fashion to it. The rear line of the car is simple and bright, and the irregular hexagonal taillights also add a touch to the new car.

    Changan Suzuki’s new Vitera has a length/width/height of 4175/1775/1610mm and a wheelbase of 2500mm respectively. According to different configurations, six models will be launched, and there are three power schemes: 1.6L+5MT, 1.4T+6MT and 1.4T+6AT.

    Since the first generation of Vitera went on the market in 1988, the style of urban off-road SUV has never been lost. Now the car has embarked on the road of localization, and its personalized design is mainly aimed at the main consumer groups after 1980s and 1990s, which shows that Suzuki attaches great importance to the small SUV market. For Suzuki, who is in hindsight, Vitera is also expected to become its most profitable product.

    Summary:Long-term product shortcomings have led to Suzuki’s failure to establish brand competitiveness to compete with mainstream Japanese cars in China. With the implementation of the new product strategy, Suzuki will share different market segments. According to previous news, Suzuki will launch products in the B-class car market to supplement its product line in the future, but at present, Suzuki’s pillar product in China is still Vitera.

The 72-year-old woman was abused because she couldn’t do housework. The old man: It’s only natural to beat his wife.

  Recently, the Japanese girlfriend of Jiang Jinfu, a well-known domestic actor, exposed many photos of bruises on various parts of her body on the Internet, and Jiang Jinfu also publicly issued a document, admitting that she had committed domestic violence and apologizing.

  November 25th every year is the International Day for the Elimination of Domestic Violence established by the United Nations, also known as the International Day against Domestic Violence. Not many people know this day, but there are not many people who are silently suffering from domestic violence in their lives.

  According to the "Special Report on Judicial Big Data of Divorce Disputes" recently released by the Supreme Court, applying to the court for dissolution of marriage on the grounds of "domestic violence" ranks the second reason for divorce, accounting for 14.86%, second only to "emotional disharmony". In fact, domestic violence nowadays is not only between husband and wife.

  Do you know any domestic violence around you? What kind of behavior is domestic violence? Recently, a reporter from chongqing morning post interviewed this.

  If a wife can’t do anything well, she should learn a lesson.

  Zhang Xiuying, 72, was sitting in the courtyard dam, burying his face and his eyes were red. After removing her hand, a deep palm print was left on her cheek, which was played by her 76-year-old wife Zheng You. This is a domestic violence case released by the Rights Protection Department of the Municipal Women’s Federation.

  Zheng You has always been more capable, but Zhang Xiuying is not very good at housework. Zheng You does all the work at home and abroad. Sometimes when he is tired, he will fly into a rage and beat his wife to trap to feel avenged.

  "It’s natural to beat your wife." Zheng You said angrily, "The old woman can’t do anything well, that’s the lesson!"

  The village "two committees" immediately set up a help team to intervene, and after visiting to find out the basic situation, they formulated a help plan. They found that the most important reason for domestic violence is that the husband and wife are uneducated and lack legal knowledge. Although Zheng You also realized that beating people was wrong, he had no idea that domestic violence was an illegal and criminal act, and he had never heard of the Anti-Domestic Violence Law. Zhang Xiuying silently endured domestic violence and didn’t realize that her rights and interests had been violated.

  Therefore, every time the help team visits the home, they will repeatedly explain the laws and regulations such as the Anti-Domestic Violence Law. At the same time, the deep-seated reasons of family violence are analyzed: the couple are old and sick, and their lives are stretched; Zheng You was busy growing vegetables and living, and he didn’t have a hot meal when he got home. When he was in a hurry, he couldn’t help being rude. To this end, the help team took the initiative to help Zheng You arrange sanitation work in the village, which solved the practical difficulties of his family. Through many visits and contacts, the support team found that the couple actually had a good emotional foundation, and there were no principled differences or major contradictions. Zhang Xiuying is not good at housework mainly because she is old, sickly, slow, honest and not capable, and she feels guilty for not being able to share it with her husband.

  As a result, the help team found the couple’s children again, asking them to visit their parents more, to rebuild the family warmth, so that they can understand each other’s difficulties and cherish the old company more. Slowly, Zheng You realized the harm of domestic violence, slowly learned to be considerate of his wife, and after helping and intervening, there was no domestic violence again.

  "Xiong Haizi" is disobedient, and dad is fist educated.

  In April, a 12-year-old boy came from Yuzhong District Women’s Federation. He first wandered in the corridor and then looked into the office. Chen Qian, vice chairman of the Women’s Federation, noticed him. After asking, he learned that this junior high school boy named Ding Ding came for help because of domestic violence. His father’s education method is simple and rude, and what goes wrong is a beating — — Eat slowly, hit; Stuttering, hitting; The academic performance has dropped. Fight!

  Fist has become the main way of communication between father and son.

  Chen Qian put down his work and had a few serious talks with Tintin first. She told Ding Ding, you see how hard it is for Dad to work outside every day to get money to take care of his family. "You are a man. It’s wrong for Dad to hit you, but you should also think about what you did badly."

  Chen Qian made several phone calls with Tintin’s father to find out the situation. The father has repeatedly said that Tintin is a "Xiong Haizi" and always makes himself angry if he doesn’t listen. Because my education level is not high, and I am not very reasonable, I can’t control my fist when I see my child disobeying.

  Chen Qian told him that you see that children know how to find 110 and ask the Women’s Federation for help, which is very generous and can tell the whole story clearly. It is generally difficult for children of the same age to do it. This is Ding Ding’s strength! Chen Qian tried to let his father see the bright spot of the child, and also told him the seriousness of hitting the child. If the circumstances are serious, it will constitute a crime. Chen Qian later followed this ordinary domestic violence incident many times and found that the relationship between father and son had obviously eased and improved.

  It is common for parents to beat their children. As everyone knows, it may have violated the law.

  So, how to define whether "beating children" constitutes domestic violence? Lawyer Wang Tianqiang of Beijing Dacheng (Chongqing) Law Firm said that minors were beaten by their parents for the purpose of education and did not cause harm to minors’ body and mind, which belongs to normal family education. Parents’ abusive behavior, which is not aimed at education, directly affects minors’ bodies, causing them physical or mental pain and damaging their physical health and personal dignity, is a violation of the Anti-Domestic Violence Law (which came into effect on March 1, 2016) and the Criminal Law. The relevant provisions on domestic violence in the Opinions on Handling Domestic Violence Crimes in accordance with the law of the two houses of congress should be in accordance with the law. Its boundary is whether the infringement has caused harm to its body and whether its harm has violated the law.

  Expert interpretation

  

  Domestic violence between husband and wife is mostly in these situations.

  The Municipal Women’s Federation has analyzed the cases of domestic violence letters and visits, and thinks that domestic violence between husband and wife is mostly:

  One is to treat the woman as a punching bag. Most women who suffer from domestic violence have no fixed job and income, low education level and financial independence. Their dependence on the man reduces their status in the family, and they become the "accessories" and "punching bags" of the man in life, and they are beaten and scolded by the man for no reason.

  Second, men have bad habits. Some men are grumpy, selfish, and lack of love and responsibility. When some requirements are not met or their families interfere with their bad habits such as drinking, gambling and drug abuse, when their wives persuade them or when their husbands and wives quarrel, the man overpowers the woman with violence.

  The third is the escalation of physical conflict. When some couples had physical conflicts in the early days, the woman forbeared again and again for reasons such as "speaking out to lose face", "forbearing too much" and "the man was drunk and in a bad mood", which led to the man becoming accustomed to it and escalating into domestic violence.

  The fourth is the type of intentional trouble. The relationship between the two sides is not harmonious or the man has an extramarital affair. The man is unwilling to file for divorce for some reasons, but forces the woman to file for divorce on her own initiative through domestic violence. Most women who suffer from domestic violence, especially those whose children are young or have no fixed jobs, are reluctant to divorce, mostly because they are worried that divorce will bring adverse effects to their children or that they will be homeless after divorce.

  remind

  

  Remember to leave evidence in case of domestic violence.

  Yuzhong District Court has conducted statistics, and in recent years, about 10% of the marriage and family disputes concluded involved domestic violence. Because domestic violence occurs among family members, the location is relatively private, and the parties have poor awareness of preserving and fixing evidence, which leads to cases of domestic violence that are difficult to prove and judicial identification.

  In 2016, in 53 cases of family disputes involving domestic violence in Yuzhong District Court, the parties only raised domestic violence in the form of oral statements, and 41 cases were unable to provide any evidence, accounting for 77.3%. In this case, violence cannot be identified. 12 pieces of evidence materials such as photos, police records, witness testimony or medical records can be provided, accounting for 22.6%. Among the cases that provided evidence of domestic violence, 6 cases could not be identified as violence due to only photos or medical records and the relevance of witness identity, and only 6 cases were finally identified as domestic violence.

  Remember the rights hotline 12338.

  The Rights Protection Department of the Municipal Women’s Federation stressed that domestic violence is an illegal act, not a housework, so we must say "no" to domestic violence!

  The Municipal Women’s Federation suggested that there are several ways to deal with domestic violence: victims of domestic violence, their legal representatives and close relatives can complain, reflect or ask for help to the units where the perpetrators or victims work, residents’ committees, villagers’ committees, women’s federations and other units.

  Victims of domestic violence, their legal representatives and close relatives may also report to the public security organ or bring a lawsuit to the people’s court according to law. You can request the public security organ to give criticism and education to the injurer or issue a warning.

  Apply to the people’s court for a personal safety protection order because of domestic violence or the real danger of domestic violence.

  For homeless victims of domestic violence, they can apply for asylum at the domestic violence shelter, which will provide temporary life assistance to victims of domestic violence.

  Victims of domestic violence can also request trade unions, Communist Youth League, women’s federations, disabled federations, residents’ committees, villagers’ committees, etc. to provide legal education to perpetrators of domestic violence, and psychological counseling if necessary.

  In addition, the Municipal Women’s Federation opened the 12338 hotline for women’s rights protection in 2005, covering the whole city in 2010. In 2015, the hotline was upgraded, and its functions were expanded to the hotline for rights protection consultation, psychological consultation and girl whisper. From November 2015 to September 2018, the Municipal Women’s Federation received more than 2,000 calls for help.

  What is domestic violence?

  Domestic violence refers to physical and mental violations committed by family members by beating, binding, maiming, restricting personal freedom, and frequent abuse and intimidation. The traditional definition of domestic violence refers to the behavior between family members, but with the development of the times, the definition of "family members" seems too narrow, and there are more and more phenomena of cohabitation before marriage and divorce without leaving home in society, and the anti-domestic violence law also has relevant provisions on this. Therefore, violence between non-marital partners can also be implemented with reference to the provisions of the anti-domestic violence law.

  Domestic violence is hidden, and many families are "quarreling — Violence — Reconciliation "in the cycle, because in the face of family members with deep feelings, many victims are reluctant to tell outsiders, let alone resort to the law. It is only the tip of the iceberg that domestic violence cases have been discovered and entered the proceedings. Even in the investigated domestic violence cases, most of the victims have actually suffered from long-term violence before the incident, and they have to endure the limit before they speak out.

  Yuzhong District Court analyzed the concluded cases involving domestic violence, and found that the forms of violence were diversified, mainly physical violence such as beating, injury and restriction of personal freedom, and showed diversified and compound characteristics.

  Most of the victims of domestic violence are women. For the purpose of saving marriage, domestic violence is regarded as a domestic affair. During the marriage relationship, victims often take a tolerant attitude towards domestic violence or respond by "fighting violence with violence". Only when filing a divorce lawsuit, the victim takes domestic violence as the reason for filing for divorce.

Supreme Leader: Building a New Type of International Relations with Win-win Cooperation as the Core

  "The trip to the avenue is also the world’s public." Our cause is a win-win cooperation with all countries in the world. Faced with the profound changes in the international situation and the objective requirements of all countries in the same boat, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the general secretary creatively put forward the grand idea of building a "new type of international relations", which enriched and developed China’s diplomatic thinking and profoundly influenced the development of international relations. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, "new international relations" has appeared more than 50 times in the public speeches and articles of the Supreme Leader General Secretary. At the joint opening ceremony of the eighth round of China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue and the seventh round of China-US high-level consultations on people-to-people exchanges, the Supreme Leader once again stressed: "China firmly adheres to the path of peaceful development, advocates all countries to take the path of peaceful development together, and promotes the construction of a new type of international relations with win-win cooperation as the core, so as to build a community of human destiny. We are willing to strengthen cooperation with all countries in the world, jointly safeguard the international order and international system with the purposes and principles of the UN Charter as the core, promote the development of the international order in a more just and rational direction, and make the planet we live in a better place. " Please learn with "Learn China".

  Pictured: On June 6, 2016, president’s top leaders attended the joint opening ceremony of the 8th China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue and the 7th China-US High-level Consultation on People-to-People Exchanges held at Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in Beijing, and delivered an important speech entitled "Make unremitting efforts to build a new-type relationship between China and the United States".

  First, China’s plan that conforms to the trend of the times

  "Although wise, it is better to take advantage of the situation." The trend of the times is rolling forward, and those who follow it will die. Facing the complicated international situation, how can we handle the relations between countries and maintain the stable development of the international community? This is a question that all countries are thinking about. In March 2013, the Supreme Leader made a speech at Moscow Institute of International Relations in Russia: "Faced with the profound changes in the international situation and the objective requirements of all countries in the world to help each other in the same boat, all countries should jointly promote the establishment of a new type of international relations with win-win cooperation as the core, and the people of all countries should work together to safeguard world peace and promote common development." This is the first time that the Supreme Leader has visited president since he was elected, and it is also the first time that the concept of "new international relations" was put forward. Since then, "new international relations" have appeared in various international occasions, and they are used to express China’s position and show the "China Plan" when dealing with international relations.

  Looking back on the historical process since the nation-state came into being, human beings have been tirelessly exploring ways to get along with each other. The Peace Treaty of Westphalia was signed in 1648, and the Westphalia system was born in Europe. It established the important principles of sovereignty and equality, and initiated the precedent of modern international relations. But this system ultimately failed to prevent Europe from falling into a group battle. In 1815, the Final Protocol of Vienna Conference was signed, and the Vienna system came into being. According to the principle of balance of power, the geopolitical map of Europe after the Napoleonic Wars was rearranged, and the peace in Europe was maintained for a long time. But it eventually led to alliance confrontation and arms race until the outbreak of the First World War. In 1945, 50 countries joined hands to create an international order and corresponding international system with the United Nations as the core and based on the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations, which opened a new historical chapter for international relations and international system construction. For more than 70 years, the efforts and role of the United Nations in maintaining world peace and security, promoting world economic development and promoting world human rights progress are obvious to all. The history of hundreds of years shows that the formation of every international relationship and the establishment of every international system bear a distinct imprint of the times, and must be constantly innovated and improved with the development of the times, otherwise it will not keep up with the times, or even lose its advanced nature and rationality.

  With the advent of the era of globalization, great changes have taken place in the international power balance, and the existing international order and system are increasingly facing new challenges. For example, the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations are often not truly observed, and all kinds of injustices occur from time to time in international relations. Especially in recent years, economic downturn, geo-turbulence, terrorist attacks, civilization friction and other chaos have come and gone, and some western scholars even exclaimed that we are entering a "disorderly world". Under the new historical conditions, what kind of international relations can better implement the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and better safeguard and develop the international system with the UN at its core? In recent years, some people put forward the "hegemonic stability theory" and advocated building an omnipotent superpower to lead international affairs; Some people put forward the "global governance theory", advocating that countries weaken their sovereignty and formulate common rules to manage the world; Some people put forward the "universal theory of value", advocating the promotion of a certain self-considered "advanced" values and social systems to unify the world; All this is hard to convince and accept.

  In today’s world, peace, development, cooperation and win-win are the trend of the times. The interdependence between countries is unprecedentedly close, and the symbiosis of interests is deepening. All countries are interconnected in the global supply chain, industrial chain and value chain. Any link that goes wrong will be affected. At the same time, the challenges facing world peace and development are more and more global, comprehensive and long-term. No country can be immune to it, and no country can conquer the world. All countries need to help each other in the same boat and work together. The supreme leader pointed out: "To keep up with the pace of the times, we can’t keep our bodies in the 21st century, but our heads are still stuck in the past, in the old era of colonial expansion, and in the old frame of cold war mentality and zero-sum game." Facing the multi-polarization of the world, the in-depth development of economic globalization, cultural diversity and the continuous advancement of social informatization, today’s mankind is more qualified than ever to move towards the goal of peace and development, and win-win cooperation is the realistic way to achieve this goal. For the international relations of the present era, the Chinese plan given by the Supreme Leader is: "Building a new type of international relations with win-win cooperation as the core". This is an important idea put forward by the Chairman of the Supreme Leader, who is in charge of the general trend of the world. It not only inherits and carries forward the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, but also transcends and innovates the traditional theory of international relations, which will certainly have a great and far-reaching impact on the future development of international relations. In September 2015,When attending the general debate of the seventieth United Nations General Assembly at the United Nations Headquarters in new york, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "In today’s world, countries are interdependent and share weal and woe. We must inherit and carry forward the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, build a new type of international relations with win-win cooperation as the core, and build a community of human destiny. "

  Second, the connotation of new international relations

  A single flower does not make a spring. The core of "new international relations" is "win-win cooperation". Win-win cooperation means that two or more parties benefit from each other and complement each other in cooperation, so that all parties in cooperation can gain something or get what they want. Win-win cooperation takes cooperation as the path and win-win as the goal, which is the road map to new international relations. Cooperation and win-win complement each other and are integrated. China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi said, "What is new about the new international relations? If you want to sum it up in one sentence, it is: replace confrontation with cooperation, replace monopoly with win-win, and stop engaging in zero-sum games and winners take all. "

  Replace confrontation with cooperation. Cooperation is the way to build a new type of international relations. In today’s world, countries are interdependent and share weal and woe. Humans live in the same global village, in the same time and space where history and reality meet, and more and more become a community of destiny with you and me. The joint effect of the community of human destiny is becoming more and more obvious. Only cooperation can safeguard world peace and only cooperation can promote common development. The interaction and interest integration between China and the world are getting closer and closer. China’s dependence on the world and its participation in international affairs are deepening, and the world’s dependence on China and its influence on China are also deepening. In the course of more than 30 years’ reform and opening-up, China insists on dealing with the world in the way of cooperation rather than confrontation, and takes the road of win-win cooperation. Although there are still some imperfections in the international system established under the leadership of the existing western countries, China did not seek to "start a new stove", but participated in and joined various international mechanisms or organizations through its own efforts, and actively and voluntarily "embedded" itself into the network of the international system. China has demonstrated its willingness and determination to respect the international order and actively participate in international affairs through practical actions, and the international system has become more representative and legitimate because of the integration of China. In traditional international relations, the zero-sum game of alliance confrontation and arms race is not uncommon, but in today’s world, the zero-sum game and the cold war mentality are not in line with the trend of the times and are spurned by more and more countries. In April 2015,Speaking at the Pakistani Parliament, the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Chinese realized ‘ more than two thousand years ago; Although the country is big, belligerence is bound to die ’ The truth. People in China admire ‘ Don’t do to others what you don’t want them to do to you ’ , China does not agree with ‘ Theory that a strong country must dominate ’ 。” He stressed: "China will adhere to the concept of win-win cooperation, unswervingly develop friendly cooperation with other countries in the world, adhere to the concept of sincerity and tolerance, deepen mutually beneficial cooperation with neighboring countries, and strive to make its own development better benefit neighboring countries and always be a reliable friend and sincere partner of developing countries."

  Replace monopoly with win-win situation. Win-win is the goal of building a new type of international relations. When attending the general debate of the 70th United Nations General Assembly, the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Development together is true development, and sustainable development is good development. To achieve this goal, we should uphold the spirit of openness and promote mutual help and mutual benefit. " Under the background that the international community is increasingly becoming a community of destiny in which you have me and I have you, the value and significance of win-win are increasingly being highlighted. We must adhere to the correct concept of justice and benefit, stress faithfulness, attach importance to affection, promote justice, and build morality, so as to truly give consideration to justice and benefit, and promote justice and benefit. At the same time, we must oppose hegemonism and power politics, take into account the legitimate concerns of other countries when pursuing our own interests, and promote the common development of all countries in the pursuit of our own development. The Supreme Leader pointed out: "All countries should establish a sense of community of destiny and truly recognize ‘ All glory, all loss ’ Co-operation in competition and win-win in cooperation. Take into account the interests of other countries when pursuing their own interests, and take into account the development of other countries when seeking their own development. "

Small four-cylinder beast is coming! Kawasaki ZX-4R, starting at 6.98w!

In the current motorcycle market in China, Kawasaki is more synonymous with Yan value school and strength school, and its Kawasaki NINJA400 is a online celebrity car in the 50,000 class. However, at the 2023 Beijing Motor Show, Kawasaki once again exploded the enthusiasm of the majority of motorcycle friends, and brought a Kawasaki NINJAZX-4R/RR with a four-cylinder engine to the domestic market, and the official selling prices of 69,800 yuan (ZX-4R) and 76,800 yuan (ZX-4RR) were more sincere than the previous 90,000 yuan.

In terms of appearance, Kawasaki ZX-4RR/R not only continues the design concept of Ninja series, but also incorporates the fighting atmosphere of ZX car series. However, as a medium-and small-displacement Kawasaki ZX model, the overall appearance is not as fierce as that of big brothers ZX-6R and ZX-10R, which is a matter of course. For more real cars, please see the live video.

In addition, Xiao Bian secretly told Lao Tie that this shell kit of Kawasaki ZX-4RR/R is universal with Kawasaki ZX-25R!

[car home Information] The ideal L9 has finally arrived. Li wants to mention in the Weibo that announced the next schedule of L9 that the delivery will start in August and the delivery volume will exceed 10,000 in September. As soon as this statement came out, four seats were shocked. A large SUV was over 10,000 in the second month of delivery. Did you count it or close your eyes? Who is going to sell a hybrid car made by a new force close to 500 thousand? Can Li Xiang’s ideal come true?

Home of the car

In the promo of Ideal L9, the scenes and elements are spectacular scenery, comfortable life, family members holding hands and smiling faces of children, which add up to the happy life of rich families. This tonality is the selling point of this ideal flagship SUV for home intelligence: creating a mobile home and creating a happy home.

Home of the car

The ideal is to have experience in building a family car. Li ONE originally positioned the dad car, which solved some pain points of the family car. Persevered in exploring and answering the ideal of "What kind of car does a family in China need", it conveyed its perception of the demand for family cars to the market.

The launch of Ideal L9 is a manifestation of Li Xiang’s entrepreneurial concept of "maintaining the advantages established from the 0-1 verification period". The product definition and iterative ability derived from Li ONE’s success may be the confidence for him to enter the blue ocean market of family cars with the second production car of 500,000 yuan.

LI Ideal L9 2022 L9 Max Edition

The sword goes sideways: Ideal L9 "Nothing"?

The ideal L9 positioning large SUV, priced at 459,800 yuan, does not provide optional equipment, and it is still a car and a price, which is really "Li Xiang". (|) still adopts the extended-range hybrid system and is equipped with a 1.5T four-cylinder engine, which will bring higher thermal efficiency and lower fuel consumption compared with the criticized 1.2T three-cylinder engine in Li ONE. Equipped with a 44.5kWh battery pack, the comprehensive cruising range of CLTC is 1315km, and the pure battery life is 215km.

If Li ONE, which sells for more than 300,000 yuan, can sell like hot cakes, and it has robbed the market of Highlander, Touran and other models, whose market is it going to rob for the ideal L9, whose price has jumped to 450,000-500,000 yuan? Who are the competing products? In fact, it is difficult for you to find a "perfect" competing product for it in the existing product sequence.

Home of the car

From the body level, its competing products should be large SUV; such as BMW X7 and Mercedes-Benz GLS; Functionally, its competing products are more like Saina SIENNA, Tengshi D9 and Lantu Dreamer, and even Weilai ES7/ES8;; From the pricing point of view, it just cut into the hinterland of luxury medium-sized SUV market, such as BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLC and Audi Q5L.

Undoubtedly, price is still the first sensitive factor in consumer choice, so from the perspective of pricing, the ideal L9 can’t touch the price range of mainstream products of large SUVs, but directly targets the medium and large SUVs of Weilai, BBA and some medium and large MPV products, including both fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles.

Home of the car

In this way,"Get a higher-level car at the same price" and "Get a car at the same level at a lower price" may be the dislocation competition strategy of the ideal L9., and the corresponding consumption space and growth momentum is the ideal market prospect of L9.

Next, I have to talk about product strength. What’s unique about Ideal L9?

Dad PLUS: a unique product selling point, a comfortable mobile home

In terms of body size, the ideal L9 is the largest SUV on the domestic market, as long as the Mercedes-Benz GLS and 55mm longer than the BMW X7. Although the width and height are not as good as them, the acceleration of 0-100km/h is better, and the seat layout of the whole system is 2+2+2, which makes the interior space more spacious and comfortable, which is also the core selling point of the ideal family car.

Home of the car

With regard to its power configuration and interior, I won’t say much here, but say two most distinctive places: as a PLUS-size daddy car, the ideal L9′ s riding space, comfort and the core selling point of technology and entertainment in the car.

The ideal seat of L9 is made of Nappa leather, the second and third rows are independent seats, and all six seats support electric adjustment and seat heating. The seats in the first two rows also support chair ventilation and ten-point massage, and the heating coils of these four seats cover the seat flanks. The second row of seats on the right side is equipped with four-way electric leg rest, small table board and dual-purpose refrigerator for refrigeration and heating, which is not only a milk warmer for children, but also provides iced happy water for families, and it is absolutely perfect.

In terms of entertainment space, the second row is equipped with retractable rear cabin entertainment screen, central control screen, co-driver entertainment screen and rear cabin entertainment screen, all of which use three 15.7-inch OLED screens, all of which can be directly connected with the Switch through the Type-C interface, so that passengers can have a better audio-visual and entertainment experience when riding, and can realize five-screen interaction, providing more entertainment solutions for family long-distance travel.

Home of the car

On the whole, Ideal L9 can be said to be an evolutionary version of Li ONE, with the same product logic, technical route and category. It only provides consumers with a bigger, smarter and higher-equipped daddy car on the basis of existing consumer cognition. It can even be said that Ideal has built an "MPV in an SUV coat", so can it be eaten by both sides?

What is the capacity of the target market? How is the growth?

Although it is a large SUV, the ideal L9 obviously does not have the ability to compete with the main products of the current large SUV. Although the price is cheaper, the brand power is not enough. The large SUV market is a niche market in terms of product supply and consumption scale, with an annual sales volume of only 40,000 vehicles. In addition, limited by economic strength, the growth rate in the past two years is lower than that of the overall automobile market. More importantly, this level of market must be a comprehensive contest of hard power and soft power of product power+brand power.

Home of the car

Mercedes-Benz GLS and BMW X7 dominate this market. According to the data of the past two years, the peak monthly sales volume of Mercedes-Benz GLS can exceed 3,000, with an average monthly sales volume of about 1,600. The monthly sales of BMW X7 peaked at just over 2,000 vehicles, mostly below 1,000 vehicles. If we look at the price again, the starting price of these two cars exceeds 1 million yuan, and the audience is quite limited.

"The best large SUV』 sold by Mercedes-Benz GLS in China"

And when an SUV sells for less than 500 thousand, the opportunity comes-

The price of 459,800 yuan has to be said that Li Xiang is very witty, because 500,000 yuan is the price watershed of domestic automobile consumption-upward, the annual consumption is only one million vehicles, and several "famous brands" have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people; Downward, there are a large number of users who "bite their teeth", so 300,000-500,000 yuan is a very growing automobile consumption space in recent years.

Home of the car

The consumption of 400,000-500,000 yuan SUVs in 2021 is about 900,000 vehicles, among which BBA’s three medium-sized SUVs account for 49%. If the price is widened to more than 500,000, it will be close to 1.2 million, and the average monthly sales of bicycles of BBA’s three medium-sized SUVs will be more than 10,000-doesn’t this seem to be the market that ideal L9 wants? !

Home of the car

Home of the car

Therefore, the ideal L9 will inherit the word-of-mouth moat built by Li ONE in the medium and large SUV market, cut into the large SUV track, upgrade the practical attributes of the family in the cockpit intelligence and interactive experience, cater to the consumption upgrading needs of middle-class families, and compete with BBA in size, but the price drops to the low-end products of BBA, so as to strive for the growth dividend of the SUV market of 400,000-500,000 yuan.

Where does the confidence come from? Who are the potential users?

Emboldened, with the product logic and consumption positioning analyzed above, the growth bonus of relevant consumption range and the strategy of dislocation competition. To sum up, one is unique product logic and positioning, the other is intelligent electrification technology bonus, the third is consumption upgrade bonus, and the fourth is dislocation competition. In addition, there is production capacity to test this new car-making force.

The brand-new 1.5T four-cylinder range extender on Ideal L9 is produced by Sichuan Ideal Xinchen Technology Company. The capacity of related projects in the first phase is planned to be 200,000 units, of which the estimated capacity is 80,000 units in 2022. At least this year, these 1.5T four-cylinder range extenders are all used by Ideal L9.

In terms of vehicle production, the ideal L9 is produced in Changzhou base, with the current production capacity of 100,000 vehicles/year, including Li ONE. The second phase of expansion is under way, and the annual production capacity will increase to 200,000 vehicles after completion. In 2021, Li ONE delivered 91,000 vehicles, which basically exhausted the production capacity of Changzhou base.

However, the launch of the Ideal L9 may backfire on Li ONE’s delivery capacity, and the follow-up delivery situation in Li ONE is also worthy of attention. Before the completion of the second phase expansion of Changzhou Factory, the Ideal only has an annual production capacity of 100,000 vehicles for joint use by Li ONE and L9.

LI Ideal L9 2022 L9 Max Edition

In addition, LI’s Beijing Hyundai No.1 Factory is also undergoing renovation and expansion. After renovation, it is planned to have an annual production capacity of 100,000 vehicles, but it is only used to produce pure electric vehicles, and it is planned to be put into production at the end of 2023. In January this year, the land for the new factory in Chongqing, LI was signed, and the Chongqing base will be completed in 2025. However, the specific construction progress and capacity planning of the base are unknown.

In terms of potential users, one is to buy a user who is obsessed with a large SUV with less money, and such users will be lost from BBA’s medium-sized SUV market; One kind is users who prefer to use MPV at home and have to take care of their daily commuting. After all, they drive an MPV to work and an SUV to work, and the latter has no sense of disobedience. Such users are part of the potential customers of Tengshi D9 and dreamers, even those of Saina SIENNA. In addition, it is also possible that some users in Li ONE will move on.

In short, this SUV with MPV function is really possible to eat both ends.

LI Ideal L9 2022 L9 Max Edition

On June 21st, the listing of Ideal L9 has been scheduled, and the honeymoon period of new products will bring a large number of early adopters to the ideal. It is not impossible to start delivery in August and achieve over 10,000 in September, which is a cumulative amount after all..However, considering the current production capacity in LI and the delivery from Li ONE, 4,000 to 5,000 vehicles should be a more pragmatic monthly sales volume, which is also a very good sales volume.

After all, Chinese is willing to spend 450,000-500,000 yuan to buy a car, either choosing a luxury brand or abandoning the brand to buy more configurations. The biggest advantage of Ideal L9 is its price advantage and almost full configuration. Whether to choose BBA brand or L9 configuration is up to everyone. The only question is whether there is 500,000.

Editor’s summary:

The large SUV market is dominated by imported cars. At present, only three China brand cars are on sale in the world. The sales of Hongqi E-HS9, Beijing BJ90 and Ideal L9, the million-class Beijing BJ90 and Hongqi E-HS9 with a price of 500,000-800,000 yuan are two or three figures, which is not enough to make a storm. Li ONE once worked as a mainstream foreign brand and luxury brand in the medium and large SUV market. If the ideal L9 can stand in the market of "product+brand" comprehensive contest of large SUV, the ideal brand power will also increase a lot. Then, what scale do you think the ideal monthly sales volume of L9 will be after stabilization? Welcome to vote and leave your expectation. (Text/car home Wang Jingbo)

  In 2012, there were nearly 100 million rural poor people in China. Well-off is not well-off, the key depends on fellow villagers, and the key is to see whether poor fellow villagers can get rid of poverty.

  On December 29th, 2012, despite the severe cold, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader went to Camel Bay Village, which is located in the depths of Taihang Mountain. During this inspection, he issued a mobilization order to the whole party and the whole country to get rid of poverty and attack hard.

  Communist party people mean what they say, and their promises to the people must be fulfilled.

  Poverty alleviation is inseparable from the hard work of the poor people themselves, and it is also inseparable from the hard work of poverty alleviation cadres. The spirit of poverty alleviation embodied in them will always be engraved on the monument of the Chinese nation.

  China has achieved the poverty reduction goal of the United Nations sustainable development agenda in 2030 10 years ahead of schedule, and the problem of absolute poverty that has plagued the Chinese nation for thousands of years has come to a historic end.

  Let the people live a better life, which is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s unswerving goal. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the world’s largest livelihood security network has been continuously woven. The people have institutional guarantee when facing risks such as old age, illness, unemployment, work injury, disability and poverty.

  In the past ten years, China has vigorously promoted the balanced development of compulsory education and the integration of urban and rural areas, done a solid job in the employment of key groups, adhered to the principle of "housing without speculation", and achieved the basic synchronization of residents’ income growth and economic growth. The state is using various policies to help the old-age care and the old-age care industry, so that the elderly can spend their twilight years safely.

  People are the creators of history and real heroes. People-centered is the bright background and distinctive logo of the Communist Party of China (CPC).

  Episode 10 Green water and green hills

  Every spring, it is an unchangeable agreement to plant new green by hand. In the past ten years, green seeds have been planted in people’s hearts and grown in the spring.

  In the new era, the construction of ecological civilization has been established as an important part of the "five in one" overall layout of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause. The CPC Central Committee has made unprecedented efforts to build ecological civilization. In 2013, China issued a five-year action plan of "Atmosphere Ten", in 2018, the three-year action plan of "Blue Sky Defence War" was launched, and in 2020, the most stringent fishing ban was launched in the key waters of the Yangtze River Basin.

  Zhou Zhouwu, a fisherman of the East Dongting Lake Fishery Supervision and Law Enforcement Bureau in Yueyang County, said: "There are more finless porpoises and the water is clear. I am really happy to see these changes."

  In 2021, blue sky, clear water and green space will screen people’s "friends circle". The phased goal of the battle against pollution was successfully completed. People really feel that the ecological environment has been greatly improved.

  This is where the Yellow River, the Yangtze River and the Lancang River originate. The Three Rivers Source region, known as the "Chinese Water Tower", is an important ecological security barrier in China and even Asia. In October 2021, the first batch of China National Parks, including Sanjiangyuan, was formally established, with a protected area of 230,000 square kilometers, covering nearly 30% of the national key protected wildlife species on land.

  In the past ten years, the system of ecological civilization system with "four beams and eight pillars" has basically taken shape.

There is no dead angle in 360 degrees. Everyone uses a magnifying glass to look at every small detail. I am particularly nervous about all kinds of interpretations and analysis."

The bank estimated that Xiaomi lost an average of 6,800 yuan for every SU7 sold in 2024, and the whole car-making business lost a total of 4.1 billion yuan. In response, Xu Jieyun, special assistant to the chairman of Xiaomi Group and deputy general manager of China Marketing Department, said in Weibo, "This information may be quite biased. I see, the report of Citi Auto Analyst came from April 2nd, and the sales boom of Xiaomi SU7 may be underestimated. In the past few weeks, our orders have continued to increase, and we are also making every effort to improve our delivery capacity. "

Citigroup: It is estimated that Xiaomi will lose 6,800 yuan for every car sold, and at most 70,000 units will be delivered this year.

Citigroup released a research report, and it is estimated that the delivery volume of SU7 of Xiaomi Group will reach 5,000 to 6,000 units in April, and the annual delivery volume will be about 55,000 to 70,000 units. At present, the delivery time of Xiaomi SU7 is as long as six months. If the production capacity cannot keep up with the demand, Xiaomi may encounter a growth problem similar to that of Tucki G6 last year. The bank estimated that Xiaomi lost an average of 6,800 yuan for every SU7 sold in 2024, and the whole car-making business lost a total of 4.1 billion yuan.

Military strategy | Russia forms a combat robot force, and the robot military competition is quietly launched.

Hot news:According to the report of Sputnik news agency & radio, Russia will start to draw up the roadmap of "Robot Force Formation Task" in 2020, and "complete the development and testing of combat robots" in 2025 to form a multi-functional robot force that can independently perform combat tasks. According to sources in the field of Russian defense industry complex, these robot units will be able to achieve maximum automatic control, rarely need manual intervention, and basically complete most of the combat tasks on the battlefield.

Comments:Combat robots have always been an indispensable protagonist in sci-fi war movies, which have brought great shock to the world with their strong firepower system and high operational efficiency. Compared with ordinary soldiers’ flesh and blood, a battle robot with steel bars and iron bones has no defects such as fatigue and fear. It has strong defense ability and also has power beyond human beings, which can effectively reduce the probability and mortality of soldiers directly appearing in the battlefield. It is precisely because of this unique advantage that combat robots have become the focus of all countries in the world and are likely to shine in the future battlefield. However, due to the insurmountable defects of the combat robot itself, after entering the war, some recognized war ethics and legal rules will be challenged and impacted as never before, which must be highly valued and effectively solved.

Russian Uran-9 unmanned combat robot

The formation of combat robot troops is of special significance to the Russian army.

Since the Soviet Union, Russia has spared no effort in battlefield intelligence and made remarkable achievements. For example, during the space race between the United States and the Soviet Union, the "lunar rover" launched by the Soviet Union to the surface of the moon was actually an all-terrain robot with certain autonomy. Nowadays, the security threats facing Russia are extremely complicated, including traditional military confrontation between major powers, realistic operational needs of local conflicts with regional national military forces, and the promotion of "paramilitary tasks" such as anti-terrorism, peacekeeping and riot suppression at home and abroad. If all of them are carried out and completed by people, it will inevitably pose great pressure on Russia’s limited financial resources and troops. In addition, because the population of Russia has been declining for many years and the aging is coming, the number of young people who are suitable for joining the army in China is on the decline, and the problem of military supply is becoming more and more prominent. A large number of combat robots can undoubtedly solve the problem of military supply and expand the size of their own army, so it is of extraordinary significance to establish a combat robot force for Russia.

In recent years, with the continuous recovery of Russia’s comprehensive national strength, the Russian army began to implement a large-scale modernization and upgrading plan for weapons and equipment, and the development of robots that can independently complete battlefield combat tasks has always been the direction of the Russian military and R&D institutions. At present, Russia has developed a variety of combat robots and put them into battlefield practice, and achieved effective military strike results. For example, in the Syrian military operation, the Russian army once invested a robot combat company to participate in the battle, including six "platform -M" tracked combat robots, four "code word" wheeled combat robots, a "acacia" self-propelled artillery group, several drones and a set of "Andromeda -D" accusation system, which formed a combat group. In combat, each robot is responsible for a combat sector, each sector is seamlessly connected, and the firepower covers almost the entire theater. This group of mechanical beasts is fearless of life and death, accurate in shooting and free to move, helping the Syrian army win a great victory. The outstanding performance of these "steel soldiers" also makes Russia have a special liking for combat robots.

Nerekhta, a Russian combat robot, is equipped with large-caliber machine guns and Grenade launchers.

The combat robot unit that Russia is going to set up this time is a new kind of arms. The robot unit is a combat unit and consists of five robots. In this unit, any robot has a high degree of independence, can complete the tasks assigned by the army well according to its own special tasks with the minimum assistance of the operator, and is basically competent for most battlefield combat tasks in conventional wars. The new "beacon" experimental platform equipped with the combat robot team has also been developed and recently unveiled. The platform is a crawler-type platform, equipped with payload function module and UAV cassette launcher module, which can automatically correct the route according to the distribution of obstacles identified by sensors, without the intervention of operators, and can install two sets of weapons with certain firepower. Its biggest feature is that it can carry a robot team to automatically open the route in complex battlefield environments such as dense urban buildings and hilly areas, and realize the task of all-weather and all-terrain operations. According to the plan, the Russian army will complete the scientific research, experimental design and formation of the combat robot force before 2025, and then bring this new type of force into the Russian army’s combat sequence, which will not only change the Russian army’s combat form, but also have a far-reaching impact on the future war mode.

Countries around the world accelerate the pace of robot arms race

As Russia has made great progress in combat robots, it is bound to put some pressure on its United States. The United States is the only country that can compete with Russia in the field of combat robots at this stage, and has been at the forefront of the world in the field of artificial intelligence research. For example, the "power" robot developed by Boston Company in the United States is as flexible as human beings; The "Alpha Dog" developed by Google can transport equipment in complex terrain, while the "bionic fly" robot designed by a team of Washington University can perform some complicated operations that cannot be completed manually, which has laid a good technical foundation for the development of combat robot troops in the United States.

From the perspective of development planning, decision makers in the Pentagon believe that intelligent war robots will flourish in the next 10 years, replacing human beings to complete at least half of the combat tasks on the battlefield, including attacking, protecting and finding targets, and becoming the main fighting force in the future battlefield. Therefore, the United States has invested a lot of money in the research and development and application of combat robots. At present, the US military has "served" at least 10 intelligent war robots in Iraq and Afghanistan, all of which are capable of all-terrain work, and a few are equipped with weapons such as machine guns and Grenade launchers, which can perform combat missions. For example, the robot "sword" deployed by the US military to the battlefield in Iraq can easily pass through any obstacles, and it is equipped with a modified M249 machine gun, with 200 rounds of ammunition, and the firing rate is as high as 1,000 rounds per minute, and the firepower intensity is comparable to that of a heavy machine gun; The "backpack" robot can capture and distinguish the subtle movements of anti-American armed snipers in the street fighting environment. In addition, the "bomb sniffing" robot can sensitively sniff out disguised explosives, thus effectively reducing the casualty rate caused by roadside bombs in the US military.

Vikhr unmanned combat robot developed on the basis of BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicle

In the future, the U.S. military has also put forward a bold plan to form a combat robot force. It is envisaged that the US military will form a brigade-level combat unit in the future, including at least 151 robot soldiers. In order to verify the combat capability of this intelligent war robot team, the United States also held a "robot war exercise": the whole robot combat corps consists of 18 robots performing different tasks, and each robot is connected with various land and air combat platforms and sensors on the battlefield. After the battle started, the ground robot acted as a pioneer. When the hidden enemy attacked it, the unmanned reconnaissance plane in the air found the enemy’s position and informed the unmanned intelligent fighter on patrol, and then the intelligent fighter fired missiles and hit the target. All these tactical actions are completed by intelligent war robots themselves. It is estimated that this robot combat force can shorten the combat time by half and reduce the casualty rate by 60%-80% compared with the traditional soldier force.

It is precisely because of these unique advantages that combat robots have. In addition to the United States and Russia, other countries in the world, such as Britain, Germany, Canada, Japan, and South Korea, are actively developing and preparing to form robot troops. Some of them have begun to use robots instead of soldiers to stand guard, mine and blast, and perform reconnaissance and surveillance tasks. It is expected that in the near future, more countries will devote themselves to the research and development of this new weapon, which will make the whole world slip into the robot arms race unconsciously.

Unmanned will become the mainstream of future operations.

The mode of human war has evolved with the continuous development of military technology. Since the invention of hot weapons, the degree of war damage and casualty rate have risen sharply, especially the tragic situation of Normandy landing during World War II, which is still fresh in many countries’ memories. How to reduce the casualty rate of our own soldiers to the greatest extent has become a factor that must be considered when the country launches a war. In modern warfare, although the application of high technology and the attack of precision weapons have greatly reduced the "face-to-face" mass killing of people in the war, when attacking some strong fortresses or cities, the attacker often has to send a large number of infantry to eliminate the remnants of the enemy. In this case, snipers, mines and machine guns in enemy positions will cause a lot of casualties to the former, so robots are used instead of soldiers to complete fire suppression, surprise attack, defense and defense.

U.S. troops in Afghanistan and unmanned robots perform tasks together.

Judging from the current development situation, although the service of combat robots has not yet formed a scale, and its form and function are constantly being researched and discussed, its embryonic form has basically taken shape, and its "tentacles" have extended to information collection, tactical implementation and strategic implementation. Especially, with the development of the super computing power of artificial intelligence, the combat robot has advantages in the speed and quality of processing information, and can extract effective information from the ocean of data faster and more accurately according to the algorithm, and make the best judgment and decision rationally, thus launching more effective attacks. In addition, when carrying out tactical tasks, the "steel body" of combat robots does not need to reserve space for carrying people. Under the same volume, they can often carry more weapons to enhance their lethality, and they will not affect their judgment and restrict their actions because of various emotions. They can achieve maximum efficiency only by "fearless impact". Therefore, there is no doubt that in the future war, the robot forces will become the absolute main force of combat, and their power will definitely far exceed human power. It will also become extremely possible to replace human beings into the battlefield in a large scale, and unmanned warfare is gradually becoming the mainstream of future combat.

However, we should also realize that with the large number of combat robots, a new type of combat force, some recognized war ethics and legal constraints will also be challenged and impacted as never before. For example, how to abide by the treaty on the protection of prisoners of war stipulated in the law of war? How to avoid the indiscriminate killing of innocent people by robots? If the robot harms civilians, who will be responsible for the main responsibility, the robot itself, the programmer or the battlefield commander? These are all issues that all countries must consider when developing combat robots. Ethical and legal constraints and checks and balances on war are the result of long-term efforts of human society and an important manifestation of human civilization and progress. Fundamentally speaking, the purpose of developing military robots in all countries is to improve their actual combat capability and defense level through technology, protect the achievements of human civilization, and promote the peaceful coexistence of people in all countries. When establishing a combat robot force, we must grasp the methodology oriented to human life and values, fully consider people’s conscience and emotions, and be alert to the potential risks of technology abuse, so as to effectively avoid a series of problems such as ethical disorders, out-of-control security, and legal inaccuracy.
