CCTV News:On March 23rd, the State Council Office held a press conference on deepening the "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" reform, promoting the "internet plus" action, and promoting "double innovation" to support the expansion of employment.

　　At the meeting, Sun Meijun, deputy director of the State Administration of Market Supervision, said that it is an urgent task to promote epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development as a whole. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attached great importance to it and made a series of important instructions and instructions, demanding to speed up the establishment of an economic and social order compatible with epidemic prevention and control, comprehensively strengthen measures to stabilize employment, actively and orderly promote the resumption of work and production, and continue to optimize the business environment. Premier Li Keqiang put forward clear requirements for stabilizing employment and enterprises, emphasized stabilizing and supporting market players and enhancing the driving force of economic recovery. Market supervision departments resolutely implemented the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, based on their functions and took the initiative, vigorously promoted the "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" reform, focused on optimizing the business environment, fully supported the resumption of production and entrepreneurship, and helped the epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development. Focus on several aspects of work:

　　First, efforts should be made to solve problems and help enterprises to resume work and production.In view of the difficulties existing in the industrial chain, supply chain, capital chain and logistics chain of enterprises during the epidemic prevention and control period, including the difficulties in returning employees to their posts, we issued "Ten Articles of Support for Resuming Work and Production", and together with the Development and Reform Commission and other six departments, we issued "Guiding Opinions on Strengthening Support for Individual Industrial and Commercial Households in Response to the Impact of the Epidemic", with the aim of reducing costs and reducing burdens, helping individual industrial and commercial households to cope with the impact of the epidemic, supporting flexible employment through multiple channels, solving the problem of individual industrial and commercial households resuming business, and creating new opportunities.

　　The second is to focus on supervision and law enforcement and maintain a fair and orderly market order.During the epidemic period, some lawless elements bid up the prices of masks, meltblown fabrics and forehead guns, making "national hardship" and "black-hearted money". Together with the public security organs, we severely cracked down, exposed typical cases, and published 10 batches of typical cases, which formed a powerful shock. At the same time, strengthen the food safety supervision of "rice bags" and "vegetable baskets", promptly investigate potential risks, strictly investigate the behavior of making and selling fake goods and arbitrarily raising prices, maintain market order, and create a safe and secure consumption environment.

　　The third is to deepen reform and continuously optimize the business environment.Promote decentralization, facilitate market access, simplify product approval, and shorten the start-up time of enterprises; Innovate the way of supervision, realize "smart management" among "strict management" and improve the efficiency of supervision; Promote "internet plus" supervision and provide convenience for market players. Through the comprehensive policy of "releasing, managing and serving", the vitality and social creativity of market players have been greatly stimulated.

　　The fourth is to optimize services and give full play to the role of market mechanisms.In order to ensure the market supply and price stability of epidemic prevention materials and people’s livelihood commodities, promote the resumption of work and production, and enhance the confidence in fighting the epidemic, the General Administration of Market Supervision launched the "three guarantees" action of "ensuring prices, quality and supply" on January 29, and through the commitment of the government and enterprises, the joint efforts of market participants to overcome the difficulties and ensure supply and stable prices have been positively responded by the majority of enterprises. Over the past 50 days, more than 15,000 enterprises have participated in the "Three Guarantees" campaign, involving many chain-operated enterprises, with more than 300,000 stores. They publicly promised to guarantee prices, quality and supply. Among them, there are both Fortune 500 enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households, covering production and processing, logistics and transportation, shopping malls and supermarkets, catering enterprises, e-commerce platforms, as well as familiar express delivery and other formats, which basically cover the entire supply chain. These large, medium and small enterprises on the platform break through the "blocking points" in the industrial chain and supply chain, connect "breakpoints", and work together to resume production. The "three guarantees" action has stabilized enterprises, stabilized jobs and stabilized employment while ensuring stable supply and prices and meeting the needs of people’s lives.

　　In the next step, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, the market supervision department will give full play to its functions, stick to the position of market supervision, serve the overall situation of epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, and make due contributions to achieving this year’s economic and social development goals and building a well-off society in an all-round way.

Entering 2023, tariffs have ushered in new adjustments-

From January 1st, a provisional import tariff rate lower than the MFN tariff rate will be applied to 1020 commodities; From January 2nd, the tariff rate of RCEP will be applied to some commodities originating in Indonesia. From July 1st, the eighth step will be implemented to reduce the MFN tariff rate of 62 information technology products …

In this tariff adjustment schedule, "down" has become the key word. Experts pointed out that in recent years, China has successively lowered import tariffs on related commodities, boosting global good goods to enter the China market, which not only meets the domestic consumption upgrading and enterprise production needs, but also provides countries with broader market opportunities and shares the China opening bonus.

China’s overall tariff level will drop to 7.3%.

■ Since January 1, 2023, China has imposed a provisional import tariff rate lower than the MFN tariff rate on 1,020 commodities. This number has increased by 66 items compared with the previous year, maintaining growth for four consecutive years.

■ On January 2nd, RCEP came into effect for Indonesia. So far, the world’s largest free trade agreement has come into effect for 14 of its 15 signatory members. Since January 2nd, China has implemented the agreed tariff rate applicable to RCEP ASEAN member countries in 2023 for some imported goods originating in Indonesia.

■ In 2023, China will reduce the import tariffs on homogenized mixed food, frozen blue cod, cashew nuts and other small household appliances such as coffee machines, juicers and hair dryers. Among them, the tax rate of homogenized mixed food, frozen blue cod and other commodities decreased by not less than 50%.

■ From July 1, 2023, China will also implement the eighth step of reducing the MFN tariff rate for 62 information technology products. After adjustment, the total tariff level of China will be reduced from 7.4% to 7.3%.

Further tax reduction in accordance with the FTA and RCEP

At the beginning of the new year, RCEP has made new progress: it came into effect for Indonesia on January 2. So far, the world’s largest free trade agreement has come into effect for 14 of its 15 signatory members.

China is Indonesia’s largest trading partner and the largest export market. After the entry into force of RCEP, the new measures of commodity tariff reduction and exemption introduced by China are a major attraction. The State Council Customs Tariff Commission recently released the tariff adjustment plan for 2023. According to the relevant provisions of RCEP and the entry into force of the agreement for Indonesia, the agreed tariff rate applicable to RCEP ASEAN member countries in 2023 will be implemented for some imported goods originating in Indonesia from January 2. Specifically, on the basis of the China-ASEAN Free Trade Agreement, China will reduce taxes on Indonesian-made pineapple juice and canned food, coconut juice, pepper, diesel oil, paper products, some chemicals and auto parts, among which 67.9% products originating from Indonesia will be subject to immediate zero tariffs from January 2.

"The higher level of openness advocated and led by China is urgently needed by developing economies including Indonesia." Nina Dai, Consul General of Indonesia in Shanghai, said that the China International Import Expo(CIIE) held in China enhanced the recognition and reputation of Indonesian brands in China. In 2021, the bilateral trade volume between the two countries increased by about 56%, of which Indonesian exports increased by nearly 70%. The entry into force of RCEP for Indonesia will continue to promote the deepening of economic, trade and investment relations between Indonesia and China, and further strengthen the existing cooperation.

At present, RCEP has entered the second year of effective implementation. Over the past year or so, China has implemented RCEP with high quality, fully implemented market opening commitments and agreement obligations, continuously promoted tariff reduction and exemption, and promoted trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, which has injected new impetus into the economic and trade development in the Asia-Pacific region and the world.

While reducing or exempting tariffs for newly effective members this year, the State Council Customs Tariff Commission clearly stated that it will further reduce tariffs in accordance with China’s free trade agreements with New Zealand, South Korea, Australia and Cambodia and RCEP.

"With the in-depth implementation of RCEP, New Zealand enterprises are facing more favorable tariffs and more convenient trade measures. The improvement of the business environment has enabled the company’s sales in China to grow rapidly, and it has also enabled China consumers to obtain quality products quickly." Roy Vandenke, general manager of R&D of New Zealand company Newland, said that China’s huge market provides opportunities for international companies like Newland and will also promote the recovery of the world economy. It is foreseeable that RCEP’s inclusive development dividend will make the development of the Asia-Pacific region more prosperous.

Gu Qingyang, an associate professor at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore, believes that tariff reduction has greatly reduced the trade costs among member countries, made trade activities more active and effectively promoted economic growth, which is a tangible benefit brought by RCEP through trade channels. "China plays an important role in RCEP and is also the main export destination of other RCEP member countries. The stronger economic growth of China in the future will provide RCEP with a broader development space. "

Reduce tariffs on many medical products and consumer goods.

The new round of tariff adjustment involves not only the agreed tariff rate, but also many new changes in MFN tariff rate and provisional tariff rate. According to insiders, the most-favored-nation tax rate is the tax rate applicable to imported goods from most countries in China. Provisional tariff rate refers to the tariff rate for some imported and exported goods within a certain period. The provisional tariff rate is generally lower than the MFN tariff rate, which is a common way to adjust tariffs independently.

According to the tariff adjustment plan for 2023, from January 1st, China implemented a provisional import tariff rate lower than the MFN tariff rate for 1,020 commodities. This number has increased by 66 items compared with the previous year, maintaining growth for four consecutive years.

Sorting out the adjusted catalogue, the reporter found that there are many medical products, such as zero tariffs on some raw materials for anticancer drugs, anti-novel coronavirus drugs and drugs for relieving cancer pain, and reducing import tariffs on medical supplies such as dentures, raw materials for vascular stents and contrast agents.

Zhang Jianping, deputy director of the Academic Committee of the Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce, analyzed that in the tariff adjustment in recent years, medicine has always been the key area of tax reduction, including zero tariffs on the first and second batches of anticancer drugs and raw materials for rare diseases, and reducing import tariffs on medical products such as artificial heart valves, hearing AIDS, intracranial embolic stents and artificial joints. These measures are helpful to further protect people’s health and reduce the economic burden of patients.

Consumer goods for daily use is another focus of this tariff adjustment. According to the published provisional tax rate table for imported goods, in 2023, the import tariffs on homogenized mixed food, frozen blue cod, cashew nuts and other small household appliances such as coffee machines, juicers and hair dryers will be reduced. Among them, the tax rate of homogenized mixed food, frozen blue cod and other commodities decreased by not less than 50%.

Zhang Jianping believes that at present, China’s consumer demand continues to grow, and the consumption structure is accelerating to upgrade, and the demand for foreign consumer goods with distinctive advantages is heating up. This tax reduction is conducive to conforming to the trend of consumption upgrading and meeting the new consumption demand of residents with high-quality supply; At the same time, it will help imported products compete with domestic products, guide the transformation and upgrading of the supply system, keep up with changes in consumer demand, and achieve a dynamic balance between supply and demand at a higher level.

In addition to medical products and consumer goods, this adjustment also highlights two aspects: first, zero tariffs will be imposed on potash fertilizer and unwrought cobalt, and import tariffs on some commodities such as wood and paper products and boric acid will be reduced; The second is to reduce import tariffs on lithium niobate, electronic ink screens, iridium oxide for fuel cells, roller bearings for wind turbines and other commodities. Experts said that reducing import tariffs on these goods will not only help strengthen the supply capacity of resources, but also promote the innovation and development of advanced manufacturing industries and accelerate industrial transformation and upgrading.

China’s overall tariff level will drop to 7.3%.

Frequent measures to reduce taxes have pushed the overall tariff level in China down continuously. According to the announcement issued by the State Council Customs Tariff Commission, starting from July 1, 2023, China will also implement the eighth step of MFN tariff reduction for 62 information technology products. After adjustment, the total tariff level of China will be reduced from 7.4% to 7.3%.

In December 2015, 24 WTO members, including China, the United States, Europe, Japan and South Korea, reached an agreement on expanding the product range of the Information Technology Agreement, and gradually abolished the import tariffs on 201 information technology expanded products according to the most-favoured-nation treatment principle. These products mainly include information and communication products, semiconductors and their production equipment, audio-visual products, medical devices, instruments and meters, etc. The annual global trade volume exceeds 1 trillion US dollars. In 2016, China implemented tax reduction for the products expanded by the Information Technology Agreement for the first time, and has implemented seven-step tax reduction so far.

According to the analysis of insiders, the gradual tax reduction according to the agreement will help reduce the import cost of related components and equipment, better meet the production needs of enterprises, promote the domestic related industries and economies to move towards high-quality development, and will also effectively promote global trade and high-tech development.

The general tariff level is one of the important indicators of a country’s openness in the field of goods trade. The data show that since China joined the WTO for more than 20 years, it has fully fulfilled its WTO commitments and continuously opened its market. The total tariff level has dropped from 15.3% to 7.4% in 2022, which is lower than the WTO commitment of 9.8%.

"Since 2018, China has introduced a series of measures such as implementing zero tariffs on imported anticancer drugs and encouraging the import of innovative drugs. In the following years, a number of innovative drugs of Bayer prescription drugs were approved for listing in China." Steve, chief financial officer of Bayer China, said, "We recognize and attach great importance to China’s opening to the outside world, and we have seen a very favorable business environment in China, which makes us more confident in the future."

Chiwharton, a Swiss flavor and fragrance company, is also one of the beneficiaries of China’s tariff reduction. "The reduction of tariffs has brought significant benefits to enterprises and enhanced our confidence in development." Wu Chongqing, the operation director of Chihuaton China, said that in 2022, China reduced the import tax rate of peppermint oil and orange oil, and the import cost of the company’s two main production raw materials decreased, saving tens of millions of yuan in taxes every year. "This not only eased the cost pressure caused by the rising price of raw materials, but also enabled the company to bring more cost-effective products to downstream customers and consumers, making our China factory more advantageous."

Zhang Jianping said that in recent years, China has taken the initiative to reduce the overall tariff level and introduced a series of new measures to reduce tariffs independently, which has made the world see that China is opening wider and wider, and also made China’s development better benefit the world and promoted all countries to share the big market opportunities in China.

　　Beijing, August 15th (Reporter Li Jinlei) The RMB is becoming more and more international!

　　The fifth largest international payment currency, the fifth largest international reserve currency, the third largest trade financing currency and the eighth largest foreign exchange transaction currency … … This is the RMB!

　　From WeChat official account, the central bank.

　　The fifth largest international payment currency

　　On August 14th, the central bank released the Report on RMB Internationalization in 2020, and RMB internationalization reached a new level in 2019. According to the latest statistics, RMB ranks fifth among the major international payment currencies, with a market share of 1.76%.

　　According to the report, the cross-border use of RMB increased rapidly against the trend in 2019. The total amount of cross-border payment and receipt of RMB by banks on behalf of customers in the whole year was 19.67 trillion yuan, up 24.1% year-on-year. On the basis of the rapid growth in 2018, the amount of payment and receipt continued to maintain rapid growth, reaching a record high.

　　The fifth largest international reserve currency

　　According to the official currency composition (COFER) data of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), by the end of the fourth quarter of 2019, the scale of RMB reserves reached US$ 217.67 billion, accounting for 1.95% of the total foreign exchange reserves in the indicated currencies, ranking fifth, surpassing Canadian dollars by 1.88%, which is the highest level since the IMF began to publish RMB reserve assets in 2016.

　　According to incomplete statistics, at present, more than 70 central banks or monetary authorities around the world have included RMB in foreign exchange reserves.

　　In the first quarter of 2020, the share of RMB foreign exchange reserves announced by IMF further rose to 2.02%, the highest level since RMB joined the SDR (Special Drawing Rights) currency basket in 2016.

　　Currency data map.

　　The third largest trade financing currency

　　The attraction of RMB as an international financing currency is gradually emerging.

　　According to the report, the survey shows that about 82% of the overseas industrial and commercial enterprises surveyed said that when the liquidity of international currencies such as the US dollar and the euro is relatively tight, they will consider using RMB as the financing currency, which has reached a new high since 2016. 75% of the overseas industrial and commercial enterprises interviewed are willing to consider using RMB as the trade financing currency in their economic and trade exchanges with China.

　　The eighth largest foreign exchange trading currency

　　In 2019, global RMB foreign exchange transactions increased steadily. According to the latest data released by BIS in April 2019 (once every three years), RMB ranks eighth among the most active currencies in the world, and ranks first among the currencies of emerging market countries.

　　The global average daily trading volume of RMB increased from $202 billion in 2016 to $284 billion, and its share in the global foreign exchange market increased from 4% in 2016 to 4.3%.

　　RMB assets are becoming more and more popular.

　　According to the report, by the end of 2019, the amount of domestic financial assets such as RMB stocks, bonds, loans and deposits held by overseas entities totaled 6.41 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 30.3%. Among them, the stock market value is 2.1 trillion yuan, the bond custody balance is 2.26 trillion yuan, the deposit balance is 1.21 trillion yuan (including interbank current account deposits), and the loan balance is 833.2 billion yuan.

　　Stocks and bonds in domestic financial markets have become the main varieties for overseas entities to allocate RMB assets. By the end of 2019, the scale of domestic RMB stocks and bonds held by overseas entities increased by 48.6% year-on-year, of which the amount of bond custody accounted for 2.3% of the total bond custody in the inter-bank bond market, and the market value of stocks held accounted for 3.6% of the total market value of A shares. In 2019, stocks accounted for 66.6% of the domestic RMB assets newly added by overseas entities.

　　In other words, more and more foreign investors are looking for gold in China’s capital market. In 2019, the cross-border receipts and payments of securities investment in RMB totaled 9.51 trillion yuan, up 49.1% year-on-year, with a net inflow of 621.9 billion yuan.

　　More foreign trade enterprises use RMB for cross-border payment and receipt.

　　According to the questionnaire of the People’s Bank of China on foreign trade enterprises, since 2019, foreign trade enterprises have been highly motivated to participate in cross-border RMB business. As of the fourth quarter of 2019, 84.6% of enterprises chose RMB as the main currency for cross-border settlement.

　　Judging from the driving factors for enterprises to choose cross-border RMB settlement, since 2019, due to the influence of external factors such as Sino-US trade friction, RMB exchange rate fluctuations have increased. Many enterprises choose cross-border RMB business as a means to avoid exchange rate risks, accounting for 64.7%. In addition, simple settlement process, reducing settlement cost and facilitating financial accounting and fund management are also the main reasons why enterprises choose to carry out cross-border RMB business, accounting for 43.2%, 36.8% and 32% respectively.

　　The RMB cross-border payment system (CIPS) has become the main channel for RMB cross-border settlement. In 2019, the CIPS system handled 1.884 million cross-border RMB businesses, amounting to 33.9 trillion yuan, up 31% and 28% respectively. It handled 7,537 transactions daily, with an amount of 135.7 billion yuan.

　　Iron ore transactions are settled in RMB.

　　In recent years, China has been the largest importer and consumer of iron ore trade in the world. The import and consumption of iron ore are at the global level of 70% and 50% respectively, but it has been relatively passive in pricing.

　　Nowadays, domestic iron and steel enterprises have made continuous progress in using RMB to settle iron ore imports. In early May 2020, baoshan iron & steel, a subsidiary of China Baowu Group, and Rio Tinto completed the first cross-border RMB settlement with blockchain technology. This is another new development after baoshan iron & steel completed the first RMB cross-border settlement with Brazil’s Vale and Australia’s BHP Billiton in January and April this year respectively.

　　So far, China Baowu and the world’s three major iron ore suppliers have achieved RMB cross-border settlement, totaling more than 500 million yuan.

　　The RMB exchange rate remained basically stable.

　　At the beginning of August 2019, due to the further escalation of trade friction, the RMB exchange rate was "broken by 7" driven by market forces, but the exchange rate expectation remained stable on the whole. Since then, due to the changes in the international economic and financial situation and the trade friction situation, the RMB exchange rate has broken by 7 for many times.

　　The report pointed out that in general, cross-border capital flows and foreign exchange supply and demand were basically balanced in 2019, exchange rate expectations were generally stable, and the RMB exchange rate remained basically stable at a reasonable and balanced level.

　　Overall, in 2019, the domestic RMB exchange rate fluctuated in both directions, and its flexibility was significantly enhanced. The RMB has risen and fallen against the US dollar and other major currencies in the world. The central parity of RMB against the US dollar, Japanese yen and British pound has depreciated by 1.62%, 3.43% and 5.18% respectively compared with the end of 2018, and the central parity of RMB against the euro has appreciated by 0.41% compared with the end of 2018.

According to the British "Financial Times" report, China’s new energy automobile giant Weilai is ready to share its electric vehicle power exchange platform technology with other car companies in a competitive relationship, and plans to build 1,000 power exchange stations overseas by 2025.

Peter, vice president of Weilai Europe, said in an interview that the company is willing to share its power exchange platform technology with other automakers and is in talks with domestic and foreign automakers on this matter. When asked whether sharing power exchange technology refers to authorization or other types of commercial agreements, Weilai declined to provide more details.

"We hope to become a participant in the high-end market in Europe by 2025." Peter said. Wei Lai believes that the power exchange mode can win the support of European consumers, and the scarcity of charging piles and long charging time hinder the demand growth of electric vehicles in Europe. The company hopes to expand the application scope of this technology by selling the power exchange system, so as to resolve consumers’ concerns about the shortage of charging piles.

Weilai has established 868 power exchange stations in China, and said that its customers have replaced batteries 7.6 million times. In January this year, Weilai opened the first power exchange station in Norway, and plans to establish 20 power exchange stations in that country. In the future, the company aims to build 1,000 power exchange stations in Europe and the United States by 2025, and increase the global power exchange station network to 5,000 by the middle of this century.

Weilai Automobile said that when the ES8 SUV model was launched in Norway, almost all customers chose to rent batteries separately, so that they could use the power exchange station. The one-month battery rental fee includes two free battery replacements. Consumers can choose a 100 kWh battery or a cheaper 75 kWh battery, which will be available later this year.

The so-called "battery replacement" means that when the battery of the new energy vehicle is insufficient, the battery that has been fully charged is replaced at the recent power replacement station, and the concept is similar to the charging method of the old mobile phone battery replacement. The average time required for changing power is less than 5 minutes, while the charging mode takes more than one hour under the condition of fast charging and 8-10 hours under the condition of slow charging.

Compared with the traditional charging mode, the power exchange mode has the advantages of shortening the charging time, prolonging the battery life, improving safety, having little impact on the power grid, sharing the pressure of insufficient charging piles, and directly reducing the cost of car purchase for users.

The fly in the ointment is that the construction cost of the power exchange network is much higher than that of the charging network. The Swedish Transport Authority published a research report on power exchange last year, which quoted Weilai’s data to show that the cost of building a power exchange station in China was 772,000 US dollars, including battery and site lease, while the cost of building a battery charging station was 309,000 US dollars.

Wei Lai said that it is currently seeking to reduce the construction cost of the power station. Sharing its power exchange platform with other automobile manufacturers can improve the utilization rate of the power exchange station, thus improving cost-effectiveness.

Operation situation of Weilai power station

In addition to Weilai, there are not many domestic enterprises engaged in power exchange services at present, and most of them are for service vehicles such as taxis, and there are only a handful of power exchange services for private cars. The main reason is that the power exchange standard has not been unified, the cost is too high, and it is difficult to make a profit in the short term.

Tesla, the global pioneer of electric vehicles, claimed in March last year that the mode of changing power for electric vehicles was "full of problems and not suitable for large-scale promotion". Tesla tried the power exchange strategy in the United States many years ago, but soon gave up the plan. Well-known car companies such as GM, Volkswagen and Renault also expressed doubts about the power exchange model.

It is reported that one of Weilai’s potential customers may be Geely’s Lotus Technology, which Weilai once invested in through its venture capital department. At the same time, Geely plans to build 5,000 electric vehicle exchange stations around the world by 2025, but has not indicated whether it will create its own platform.

In addition, later this year, Weilai will March into Sweden, the Netherlands and Germany. Among them, the model that Weilai plans to launch in Germany will be the ET7 sedan, which directly competes with the electric BMW 7 Series which also adopts the power exchange technology.

It is generally believed in the industry that home-filled piles, fast-filled piles and changing power stations will become the three main ways to replenish energy for electric vehicles in the future. According to the analysis of CICC’s research report, it is estimated that the number of power stations in China will reach 22,000-26,000 in 2025, with broad market prospects.

Contrary to the negative attitude of foreign car companies, the China Municipal Government is vigorously promoting the large-scale application of the electric vehicle replacement mode as an expansion of the electric vehicle energy replenishment mode.

In 2020, the power exchange mode was included in the category of "new infrastructure" and was first written into the "Government Work Report" of the two sessions. In the construction of new energy infrastructure, "building charging piles" is expanded to "adding charging piles, changing power stations and other facilities". By 2021, the government work report once again mentioned the need to increase facilities such as changing power stations.

In May, 2021, the world’s first national standard for battery replacement technology, Safety Requirements for Electric Vehicles, was approved and issued by the State Administration of Markets and the State Standardization Administration Committee, which specified the safety requirements, test methods and inspection regulations for electric vehicles with replaceable batteries, and it was implemented in November, 2021.

In October, 2021, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology launched a pilot project on the application of new energy vehicle switching mode, and 11 cities were included in the pilot project. The goal is to produce 100,000 rechargeable cars by 2023 and build more than 1,000 power stations in pilot cities.

Since the beginning of this year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has issued the "Key Points of Automobile Standardization in 2022", which requires the development of standards such as on-board power exchange system, general platform for power exchange and battery pack for pure electric vehicles. Automobile manufacturer Weilai and Geely, battery manufacturer Aodong New Energy and central enterprise China Petrochemical jointly said that they plan to open a total of 24,000 power exchange stations nationwide by 2025, while the current number of power exchange stations is about 1,400.

According to Reuters’s previous report, if the China market succeeds in promoting the power exchange model on a large scale, this change may affect the business models of global auto giants such as Tesla, Volkswagen and General Motors. These brands of electric vehicles use their own patented batteries, and Tesla even only uses the company’s charging network.

Power exchange technology has always been one of the core competitiveness of Weilai’s automobile products. Sharing power exchange technology is equivalent to Tesla allowing other brands to use its super charging network. In addition to reducing the cost of power exchange, increasing market share and accelerating the global layout, Weilai’s move is to seize more voice in the upcoming power exchange industry.

　　BEIJING, Sept. 5 (Reporter Wu Tao) "Putting an elephant in the refrigerator is divided into three steps", but do you know how many steps there are to cancel the "automatic fee deduction" for an online video VIP member? Many netizens don’t even know where and how to cancel, all because the online video VIP membership routine is "full".

　　Routine one

　　Price temptation, binding "automatic deduction"

　　"One cent for membership" and "9.9 yuan enjoys exclusive price for beginners". Many online video websites have been doing this activity almost all the year round, saying that opening VIP members is cheap. Is this true?

　　The reporter learned in the investigation that when using these "preferential prices" to open VIP members, they have one thing in common, that is, they are forced to bind "automatic renewal" (or "automatic deduction"), otherwise they cannot enjoy such prices; The preferential price can only last for one month or a few days.

　　"Why set the preferential price? One is to attract new VIP members, and the other is to bind payment methods, so as to be ‘ Automatic fee deduction ’ Provide the necessary conditions. " Some senior online video member users say that every time they recharge, they are tempted by the price, so they are basically cheaper "continuous monthly subscription".

　　Routine 2

　　There is no "automatic fee deduction" cancellation service on the page.

　　After users subscribe to the "automatic fee deduction", in order to reduce the loss of VIP members, many online video websites do not set up the "automatic fee deduction" service, or the location is difficult to find. For example, in the APP member center of Mango TV, there is no way to cancel the automatic renewal on the whole page.

　　"I don’t know how to cancel VIP membership" and "It’s too troublesome to cancel". Some users said in an interview with Zhongxin. com that they must open VIP members to watch popular dramas, but they always renew their fees because they can’t cancel the "automatic deduction fee" after watching them.

　　Routine 3

　　"automatic fee deduction" deducts fees in advance

　　Some netizens believe that VIP members have not expired yet, and it is too late to cancel the "automatic deduction" when it expires. In fact, this is careless again. Many online video websites deduct fees in advance, about 1 to 3 days in advance. The specific time may be different for each enterprise.

　　Routine four

　　Members set up in the middle, and special resources will be charged again.

　　According to the data published by some online video websites, the VIP membership rate of some websites has reached more than 90%, which means that among 100 users, more than 90 people are VIP members, but when most people become VIP members, the membership rights are not so "distinguished".

　　The reporter’s investigation found that VIP members, including video websites such as Tencent Video, still need to pay extra when watching some sports programs; In some online audio-visual services such as QQ music, some music downloads, even if they are members of Green Diamond, still have to be charged separately.

　　Routine five

　　Inductive renewal fee

　　OK, just pay for special resources, but sometimes, when you click on the pop-up page to pay, it becomes a VIP member "renewal fee" instead of "purchase", and the resources you want are still not available.

　　In an interview with a reporter from Zhongxin.com, a user said that she used her member account to download songs on an online audio-visual platform, showing that she paid extra, and then a payment window popped up. "After paying, I still can’t download them. After paying for three times in a row, I found that it was renewed for three times. Finally, I found the purchase channel in a small line on the page, which can be marked prominently as ‘ Renewal fee ’ It is easy to be fooled. "

　　Routine six

　　Only payment channels that can be "automatically deducted" are provided.

　　The No.42 document previously issued by Networked Clearing Co., Ltd. makes it clear that before June 30, the direct connection between all third-party payment institutions and banks will be cut off, and banks will no longer directly provide withholding channels for third-party payment institutions.

　　The reporter noticed that Youku and others only provide payment methods that support withholding services, such as Alipay, WeChat payment or SMS from operators, and do not support payment channels that cannot automatically deduct fees.

　　Enterprise: This is an industry phenomenon.

　　The reporter contacted the relevant staff of two online video websites and got a response, saying that VIP members can meet the differentiated needs of users well, and it is not mandatory, and users can choose by themselves.

　　"As for ‘ Routine ’ This is an industry phenomenon, not just online video, including online music, online download, online knowledge payment and other fields. Many companies do this. "

　　Some users spend thousands of dollars a year.

　　Although it is not mandatory, the burden is not small for users. "I have opened Youku, Iqiyi, Mango TV, Tencent videos, and I can’t remember them. The reason for recharging members every time is probably because of popular online dramas or variety shows." The above-mentioned senior online video user said.

　　It is understood that the annual fee for VIP members of Tencent video is 198 yuan, and most of the online video VIP members are also around 200 yuan. For example, if a user has opened 10 VIP members, it will cost more than 2,000 yuan a year.

　　In addition, don’t underestimate the VIP membership fee of tens of dollars per month. According to media reports, because there are many kinds of members charging for the Internet, many users spend five or six thousand yuan on membership purchases every year.

　　How can I cancel the "automatic fee deduction"?

　　Having said that, how can the "automatic deduction" be cancelled? The reporter found that there are basically two methods. One is to provide websites that cancel automatic renewal, such as Tencent Video and Youku, which can be cancelled in automatic renewal management. But there are relatively few such websites.

　　More online video website member centers don’t have a cancel button, so they can only cancel through the purchase channel.

　　For example, if you want to cancel the "automatic deduction" for VIP members purchased through Alipay, you can find the corresponding application in Alipay My-Settings-Payment Settings-Confidential Payment/Automatic Deduction-Payment Code and Sonic Confidential Payment, and just cancel. (End)
