Appearance article
Domineering and dynamic
The overall style of Changan Ford Sharp continues the domineering toughness of overseas prototypes, but the design of the new front air intake grille makes the 2015 Changan Ford Sharp more full and dynamic.
Because the 2015 Changan Ford Sharp is mainly a 7-seat model, the body structure is different from the previous generation. The length is 4878mm, the width is 1925mm, the height is 1770mm, and the wheelbase is 2850 mm. The tall D-pillar and the smooth rear roof inadvertently enhance the head space of the third row of passengers, and the side tail window with increased area also enhances the lighting effect of the third row. The overall shape of the tail is more compact and layered. The redesigned taillights also adopt a full LED light source design, which echoes with the headlight group. The metallic protective plate at the bottom is integrated with the exhaust gas from both sides, which not only maintains the unity of the vehicle, but also enhances the overall visual effect of the tail, making the tail of the vehicle more stable and avant-garde. The decorative strip made of chrome-plated metal is not only exquisite and beautiful, but also can play an anti-collision role when carrying luggage.
Interior decoration article
Incorporate a sense of science and technology
In terms of interiors, the 2015 Changan Ford Sharp has made significant progress compared with overseas prototypes, and the overall simple design style has incorporated a lot of sense of technology.
The large 4-way electrically adjustable four-spoke steering wheel is wrapped in leather and decorated with chrome-plated metal, which is exquisite, beautiful and comfortable. There are functional areas on the left and right sides, which can operate driving data, sound, Bluetooth mobile phone control, sound adjustment, ACC adaptive cruise and LIM speed limit. Behind the steering wheel is also equipped with shift paddles that are not available in overseas prototypes.
The 2015 Changan Ford Sharp adopted a 10.1-inch full LCD dashboard, which can display various information such as speed, fuel consumption, driving data and safety configuration. The clear white scale with blue pointer can make the driver see at a glance.
The overall design of the center console is simple and exquisite. Except for the air-conditioning operation panel and the function keys of the audio system, the other functions are covered by an 8-inch touchable LCD screen, including navigation, vehicle image, electric seat heating, ventilation and many safety configurations of the vehicle. It is worth mentioning that after matching with the mobile phone through Bluetooth and USB interface, you can also play songs in the mobile phone and display album names and other information on the central control LCD screen.

Performance article
Adjust linear uniformity
The 2015 Changan Ford Sharp Four-wheel Drive Zunrui is equipped with a 2.7T EcoBoost GTDiV6 engine, which can produce a maximum power of 242kW at 5500rpm and a maximum torque of 475N·m at 2500~4500rpm. Matching it is a SelectShift6-speed automatic manual transmission.
During the whole test drive, the 2015 Changan Ford Sharp Four-wheel Drive Zunrui will not have a very strong feeling of pushing back, but it can take it easy when overtaking or merging, with smooth power output and gentle shifting action. You won’t feel overwhelmed when you climb over the hillside or pass some muddy and slippery roads. In addition, the feeling of throttle and brake is also my personal favorite, both of which are adjusted evenly and linearly, and will not be particularly abrupt.
The suspension is hard to adjust, and the vibration filtering performance is not ideal when encountering potholes and speed bumps, and the body has obvious ups and downs.
Space article
Spacious and flat
The spatial performance of the 2015 Changan Ford Sharp is obvious to all. It is not a problem to actually sit 8 people in three rows of seats. The seats are all made of high-quality leather, and the large seat backrest supports the body in place, which is comfortable. The second row of seats is also very comfortable. The second row of right seats can automatically lean forward and fold, and the second row of left seats can easily enter by pulling the handle to lean forward and fold. The third row of seats will not have obvious sense of constraint for people with a height of 183cm, but because the seat position is low and the legs are not supported too much, it is not suitable for long-distance riding.
In terms of storage, there are storage compartments on both sides of the front and rear doors, and the glove box has a spacious overall space, which can hold at least three bottles of water. There is also a large hidden storage compartment at the top of the center console, where valuables such as mobile phones and wallets can be placed. There is a small storage compartment with a cover at the bottom of the center console, which has two USB interfaces, an AUX interface and an sd card groove. There are two water cup grooves in front of the front and rear rows of central armrest boxes, a small storage compartment, a 12v cigarette lighter and a three-hole power interface are also arranged in the middle of the second row, and an onboard toolbox is hidden under the second row of foot pads.
The trunk is spacious and flat, with a standard volume of 233L. The second and third rows of seats can also be laid down in a certain proportion, making the volume reach 2039L. It is worth mentioning that the 2015 Changan Ford Sharp Four-wheel Drive Zunrui has an inductive electric trunk door.
Security article
High strength guarantee
The 2015 Changan Ford Sharp uses high-strength and ultra-high-strength steel in key parts such as A-pillar, B-pillar, door anti-collision beam and front and rear anti-collision beam to form a solid and reliable passenger compartment. The collision force is effectively dispersed by the energy absorption design such as the collapse box, and the laser welding process with high strength and small thermal deformation ensures the passenger compartment to be foolproof.
The 2015 Changan Ford Sharp is also equipped with a blind spot monitor. Cameras are placed in the front grille and the rearview mirror outside the front passenger seat, so the driver can easily check the blind spot through the navigation screen by simply pressing the button on the dashboard.
summary
For the domestic SUV market, many consumers have already gone through the stage of blind consumption, and pay more attention to the intrinsic value such as practicality. Therefore, such an all-round and multi-purpose model is bound to inject a new force into the domestic SUV market.
[car home Information] Recently, according to overseas media reports, Tesla has started to deploy its software update to promote the latest FSD V12.3 beta version, which was integrated into the software update on April 30.25, 2023. Tesla CEO elon musk bluntly said: "This is a major release, and it can be said that it should be called V13."
It is reported that this release is limited to specific user groups. Tesla explained: "FSD Beta V12 upgraded the city street driving stack to an end-to-end neural network trained on millions of video clips, replacing more than 300,000 lines of explicit C++ code." This means that the automobile control logic has been handled by neural network, rather than the code written by programmers. According to the feedback from users who participated in the FSD Beta V12 test in North America, compared with V11, the intervention times of V12 version will be reduced by more than 100 times. However, Tesla FSD is still a Beta version.
Since its first launch on October 20, 2020, FSD has only been available in Beta in North America. Tesla released new software updates through beta to verify its latest autonomous driving technology and improve performance. At present, the system can’t realize full automatic driving, and it needs the supervision of the driver.
Last November, it was reported that Tesla FSD Beta was about to enter China. Tesla China official website updated the owner’s manual of China with FSD Beta, which indicates that FSD will soon land in China. Taking the new model (|) as an example, it costs 64,000 yuan to install FSD. After installation, it can realize the functions of recognizing and responding to traffic lights and stop signs, and automatically assisting driving in urban streets.
Tesla has made a lot of preparations before landing in FSD in China. In 2021, a data center was established in Shanghai. All data generated by China business, including production data, sales data, service data and charging data, are completely stored in China to meet regulatory requirements. In addition, Tesla set up an FSD operation team and a data labeling team in Shanghai, and sent engineers from this department to do training. However, Tesla China once responded to the domestic media that "it is really in progress at present". (Source: teslanorth, notateslaapp；; Compile/car home Li Na)

"Comprehensive stop diagnosis? Is the hospital closed? "
"What if a chronic patient prescribes medicine?"
"What other institutions continue to provide medical services?"
……
For a time, all kinds of questions exploded in the circle of friends. The reporter asked many institutions to find out-
Stop only refers to the clinic, clinic stop.
The "Notice" clarifies that in order to fully safeguard the public health and life safety in Nanjing and resolutely and effectively curb the occurrence and spread of the epidemic in medical institutions in Nanjing,All kinds of outpatient departments and clinics in Nanjing (including traditional Chinese medicine and integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine) will be completely closed from now on..

"Uncle, Happy New Year to you!" On the fourth day of Lunar New Year’s Day, in Xiaowangzhuang Village, Jiuyuan Town, Fugou County, Zhoukou City, Henan Province, Yang Xiao, who returned home from other places for the New Year, pushed open the door and said loudly.
"I haven’t seen you for a year, and I’m handsome again!" Wang Zhiping accepted the annual gift. "I know that you will get home at 11: 30, and the last hot dish has just been served, so you can open the table."
Yang Xiao was puzzled. How could he know the arrival time hundreds of kilometers away? It turned out that the 10-year-old son used his mobile phone to open the positioning function on the road and shared his position and route with his uncle.
"Now every village has access to the Internet, and everyone has used smart phones. Mobile payment and webcasting can be seen everywhere in rural areas." Wang Zhiping said and took out his mobile phone. "Look, the 5G network is very smooth."
Nowadays, scientific and technological innovation has made the Spring Festival a diversified fashion. With the arrival of the Spring Festival, Shi Yanyan’s family WeChat group, a resident of Tongqiu Street in Fugou County, has also become lively. Everyone has sent New Year greetings to each other in the group and shared their joy.
"Many relatives and friends have made short videos of New Year’s greetings, which have different styles and are very human." In the view of Shi Yanyan’s family, it is more convenient to convey love and blessings through the Internet, and the taste of the year remains unchanged.
On the first day of the first month, before dawn, Shi Yanyan got up to prepare meals for her family. After breakfast, the family will pay New Year greetings to distant relatives and friends through WeChat videos or phone calls.
"Now, the ways for people to send blessings in New Year are more diversified. Some people choose to send friends, some choose to send WeChat, and others choose video to pay New Year greetings. Using’ Cloud New Year greetings’ saves time and effort and conforms to the trend of the times." She is keen on the Internet to celebrate the New Year.
In addition to short videos to celebrate the New Year, online shopping for new year’s goods has also become a new year custom for young people. "Relatives who spend the New Year outside, as long as the mobile phone places an order with one click, can eat hometown specialties without going back to their hometown, warming their stomachs and warming their hearts." Shi Yanyan said that the changes in the way of purchasing new year goods also reflect the changes and progress of the times.
With the development of modern science and technology, New Year customs such as "cloud reunion", "cloud gathering", "cloud entertainment" and "cloud shopping" have sprung up, showing a different flavor of the New Year.
"Flexible use of science and technology means, free up creative talents, create a high-quality holiday atmosphere, and technological innovation makes the annual taste stronger." The relevant person in charge of the Fugou County Government said. (Reporter Wang Shengxi)
According to foreign media reports, NASA said that five asteroids will pass by the earth in the future, and one of them may be very close to the earth. It is reported that the smallest diameter of these asteroids is only 8 meters and the largest is 90 meters, and lular distance from the Earth will be as short as five distance to the moon.
Image source network
A distance to the moon refers to the distance between the earth and the moon, which is about 238,900 miles (384,000 kilometers). It sounds like a long distance, but it is a very close distance in the vast space, and they will pass by the edge of the earth. Fortunately, the closest asteroid to the earth this time is smaller in diameter and will not pose too much threat to the earth.
Where are the asteroids?
Asteroids are celestial bodies in the solar system that move around the sun like planets, but are much smaller in size and mass than planets. Most of them are influenced by the gravitational force of the sun and Jupiter, and they gather in the asteroid-intensive area between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. According to the statistics of 120,437 asteroids that have been numbered, this hotbed of asteroid "life" is composed of more than 500,000 asteroids. So many of them are called "main belt" and many people are used to calling it "asteroid belt".
Figure: Asteroid belt
The so-called "near-earth asteroids" can be understood very well just by looking at the literal meaning. "Near-earth" means that their orbits are very close to the earth, and they are a special group that deviates from the main belt.
Dangerous asteroid
According to analysis, only asteroids with a diameter of more than 140 meters and a minimum distance from the Earth of less than 0.05 astronomical unit (about 7.4 million kilometers) will be included in the list of dangerous asteroids.
According to the latest release of the website of the International Asteroid Center, researchers have discovered 1,640 "potentially threatening near-Earth asteroids" through global joint survey.
History of asteroid impact on the earth
As early as 65 million years ago, dinosaurs, a large animal that dominated the earth for 150 million years, suddenly disappeared. Astronomers speculate that there are two possible reasons for the extinction of dinosaurs: first, the explosion of supernovae, which is equivalent to about 10.24 hydrogen bombs, led to the extinction of dinosaurs; The second is asteroid impact. In 1978, American astronomer Luis Alvarez speculated that an asteroid hit Iceland, and this impact was equivalent to the energy of 1 trillion tons of TNT. Such a violent impact led to the disappearance of dinosaurs.
In addition, on June 30, 1908, a huge flash of light lit up the sky in the Tunguska River Basin in Shiquan, krasnoyarskiy kray, Siberia, followed by a violent explosion equivalent to 1,000 atomic bombs. A mushroom-like cloud of smoke soared 12 miles into the sky, and the scorching air billow swept the vast Taiga forest one after another, and hundreds of square kilometers of forest were destroyed in the explosion. This famous explosion was the Tunguska Big Bang.

In addition, according to the latest research report of geoscientists from the Australian National University (ANU), at least three asteroids with a diameter of 20-50 kilometers collided with the earth 3.2 billion years ago, which greatly changed the structure and elemental composition of the earth’s surface.
In recent years, scientists predict that an asteroid named Apophis will pass by the Earth in 2029 and hit the Earth in 2036. If it hits the earth, it will generate energy equivalent to the explosion of 110,000 atomic bombs, which is equivalent to the instantaneous destruction of the whole city of new york and its surrounding areas. If it hits the ocean, it will cause a devastating tsunami, which is more violent than the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami.
Apophis is one of nearly 800 potentially threatening asteroids known to astronomers.
Prevent collision and defend the earth
In order to cope with this possible impact, some people put forward a plan to destroy asteroids with nuclear weapons. However, all the accumulated nuclear weapons on the earth are only enough to blow up an asteroid with a diameter of 9 kilometers, and they have to hit the center accurately. In addition, the consequences of a nuclear explosion in the universe are unpredictable.
Therefore, people are also considering other plans to deal with asteroids, such as using lasers or lead ingots. NASA is going to lure Apophis away with a "gravity trailer" when it flies to the Earth in 2029. When the asteroid passes near the Earth in 2029, it only needs to launch a "gravity trailer" spacecraft weighing about 1 ton, which can change the orbit of this asteroid. According to astronomers’ calculations, Apophis will slightly change its orbit when it flies over the earth this time, but when it returns again in 2036, the possibility of colliding with the earth is very small, only 1 in 5,000.
Although the speculation about the extinction of dinosaurs makes the prediction of the impact of asteroids on the earth scary, with the development of science and technology, from not knowing what asteroids are to accurately understanding and then boldly predicting, the progress of civilization makes us believe in the power of science, and there must always be a perfect way to deal with this "uninvited guest".

"The province has successfully passed the three peaks of fever clinics, emergency departments and critically ill patients. The epidemic situation in rural areas that have received much attention has not rebounded significantly, and the overall epidemic situation in the province is stable and orderly." On the morning of January 28th, on the first working day after the Spring Festival holiday, the Provincial Health and Wellness Committee held a regular meeting of the leading group for epidemic prevention and control and a working meeting of the province’s health and wellness system. Xu Bin, deputy director of the Provincial Health and Wellness Committee, informed the situation at the meeting.
The normal medical order was gradually restored during the Spring Festival.
No new virus sequence was found.
The Epidemic Prevention and Control Group of the Provincial Health and Wellness Committee gave a set of data: the peak of infection in Covid-19, Sichuan Province has passed, and the trend of new infections is obvious. During the Spring Festival, all localities insisted on multi-point monitoring of the epidemic situation in COVID-19, and 110 virus genomes were sequenced, and no new virus sequences were found; No large-scale infection occurred in 3078 civil affairs service institutions in the province.
"During the Spring Festival, the number of positive patients and critically ill patients in the province continued to decline, and there was no obvious treatment of small peaks and insufficient medical resources, and the normal medical order gradually recovered." The Medical Treatment Group of the Provincial Health and Wellness Committee released a preliminary statistical result: from January 1 to January 27, the bed utilization rate of medical institutions above the second level dropped from 96.89% to 60.04%, and the bed utilization rate of ICU dropped from 87.50% to 49.73%. The number of positive patients in the hospital dropped from the highest of more than 80,000 in the previous period to more than 8,000, and the medical order recovered well.
Behind the figures is the continuous optimization of the province’s epidemic prevention and control measures. Taking medical services for key populations as an example, during the Spring Festival, Sichuan provided key populations with "three observations" (observing whether there is "silent hypoxia" performance, observing whether the health condition is abnormal, and observing whether the basic diseases are aggravated), "two tests" (antigen testing, temperature testing) and "one door-to-door" (door-to-door health package distribution) services at least twice a week, and carried out a total of 2.726 million health services; Counties (cities, districts) have set up more than 8,800 "roving diagnosis and treatment teams" in villages and towns, making rounds of clinics in township hospitals, villages with complicated conditions and nursing homes, providing medical treatment and health monitoring services to the masses face to face, and co-ordinating the distribution of medicines and necessary equipment to township hospitals and village clinics. Before and after the Spring Festival, the province’s health system also carried out the activities of "going to the grass-roots level, inspecting the facts, and making a big visit", guiding all localities to establish a daily monitoring and scheduling mechanism for drug reserves, and dynamically adjusting the reserves of drugs and testing reagents. Before the holiday, more than 90,000 finger-clip oximeters were provided free of charge for 44,800 village clinics in the province.
The possibility of a large-scale local epidemic in the near future is low.
But there are still uncertainties.
During the Spring Festival, the epidemic situation was stable and orderly. What do you think of the next step? How to do it?
Zhou Jiushun, an expert on epidemic prevention and control and deputy director of the Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, judged that the epidemic situation fluctuated at a low level during the Spring Festival, and the possibility of a large-scale local epidemic and the importation of new strains causing a large-scale epidemic was low, but everyone should continue to be the first responsible person for health.
"At present, there are still uncertainties in the epidemic situation in COVID-19. All localities should continue to strengthen epidemic monitoring and situation analysis, and do a good job in prevention and control of key institutions in a targeted manner." Ma Jun, the relevant person in charge of the epidemic prevention and control group of the Provincial Health and Wellness Commission and director of the CDC, said that the next step would be to pay close attention to the introduction and spread of mutant strains in Covid-19, and to strengthen the epidemiological investigation of severe and dead cases, the protection of key populations, vaccination, epidemic prevention and control in rural areas and health services.
Li Bing, the relevant person in charge of the medical treatment team of the Provincial Health and Wellness Commission and director of the Medical Administration Department, said that the specified frequency of not less than 3 times and 2 times per week will continue to be strictly implemented, and full coverage health services will be provided to the key and sub-key populations in the province. Relying on the three-level severe treatment system in provinces, cities and counties and the piecemeal consultation mechanism in four high-level general hospitals such as west china hospital and Provincial People’s Hospital, the sinking and centralized treatment of experts will be strengthened, the treatment of critically ill patients and the co-treatment of multiple diseases will be highlighted, and the normal medical order will continue to be gradually restored.
Xu Bin said that the next step will be to focus on key places, key populations and key institutions to ensure that medical services, drug equipment, protective materials, vaccination and referral mechanisms are in place; Continue to strengthen the monitoring of new mutant strains in Covid-19, pay special attention to the monitoring of mutation imported from abroad in Covid-19, and provide decision-making basis for early epidemic warning; Strengthen the construction of compound, integrated and leading professional talents in general hospitals and disease control institutions.

On May 26th, the share price of Netease Cloud Music ushered in a wave of surge, which once reached HK$ 92.55, up over 57%. In the end, Cloud Music closed at HK$ 81.1, an increase of 38.16%, which was the highest increase in one day since Netease Cloud Music went public in Hong Kong.
The sudden surge is related to the sudden handshake between Netease and Tencent, which have been "entangled" for many years.
After years of entanglement, make peace?
As early as 2014-2015, Tencent Music, with its deep pockets, pocketed many copyrights such as YG Entertainment, Jewel, Huayi, Emperor, Lehua and Huayan International, and even its own "brother" WeChat banned similar online music products such as Netease Cloud Music, Xiami Music and Everyday Music, and the copyright dispute officially started.
In this incident, Netease also issued a message called "Goodbye, Friends Circle; Chang Bo of Hello, Good Music insinuates that Tencent has no open Internet spirit.

In 2018, under the impetus of the National Copyright Administration, Tencent Music and Netease Cloud Music exchanged copyrights. Since then, although the struggle between the two families is not as fierce as before, there are still many confrontations in the open and in the dark.
In July 2021, the State Administration of Market Supervision ordered Tencent Music to terminate the exclusive copyright agreement. Netease Cloud subsequently issued a notice saying that it firmly supported the punishment decision of the State Administration of Markets.
Since Netease Cloud first posted a blog in February 2021 accusing Cool Dog Music of plagiarism, in April this year, Netease Cloud again issued a statement announcing the prosecution of Tencent Music Entertainment Group (including QQ music, cool music, cool dog music, national K songs and other products) for copyright infringement through illegal broadcasting and unauthorized songs, batch impersonation, product innovation by copying, evasion and even confrontation with supervision, which constitutes unfair competition.

Subsequently, Chen Mo, the head of brand public relations of Tencent Music Entertainment Group, responded in a circle of friends, saying, "Ignoring the facts to touch porcelain will not help the development of the music industry, and it will not join the ranks of quarrelling. Relevant evidence has already been preserved, and the lawsuits initiated have already been initiated one after another."
At the same time, the black history that Netease Cloud Music illegally packaged and sold Jay Chou Quanqu Library was also dug up by the people who ate melons.
Just as the public was still immersed in the copyright dispute between Netease and Tencent, the two companies suddenly sent a message to "confess" each other.
On May 25th, Netease Cloud Music officially announced that WeChat status can support one-click sharing of Netease Cloud Music. WeChat official account, its official WeChat, also published an article entitled "Thank you for your status on WeChat", which introduced in detail all the steps to share the songs in Netease Cloud Music to "WeChat status".
At the same time, WeChat’s official account "WeChat School" also responded with "@ Netease Cloud Music Thank You for Your Song".
Or related to the new function of WeChat status, Netease Cloud Music increased by 38.16% on May 26th. As of the close of June 1, Netease Cloud Music reported 86.65 Hong Kong dollars/share, with an increase of over 50% in five trading days.
One second, it was full of gunpowder, and the next second, it was quiet. Perhaps it is the old saying, "There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests".
Stock competition continues, user growth touches the ceiling.
With the advent of the post-copyright era, the online music market has entered the stage of stock competition and is facing the loss of users.
According to Analysys Qian Fan’s "Annual Comprehensive Analysis of Online Music Market in China in 2022" report, in January 2022, all mobile music users spent 21 minutes per day, down 21% year-on-year; All mobile music users started 4.2 times per day, down 21% year-on-year.
Netease Cloud Music, which once suffered from "the pain of copyright", has also begun to accelerate copyright cooperation, and has successively added copyright parties such as Modern Sky, Emperor Entertainment and Lehua Entertainment. However, this also brings a lot of cost pressure to the company.
From 2018 to 2021, the service cost of Netease cloud music content was 1.971 billion yuan, 2.853 billion yuan, 4.787 billion yuan and 6 billion yuan respectively. Among them, this cost has exceeded the total revenue of each period from 2018 to 2019, and reached 97.79% of the total revenue in 2020.
"Promoting the incubation of independent musicians and the development of self-made music" is one of the strategies that Netease Cloud Music has adhered to for many years.
Behind a number of support programs for independent musicians, we can see the thinking of Netease Cloud Music. Through the vigorous development of the original music ecology, we can get rid of the shackles of copyright, which is also Netease Cloud Music’s efforts to reduce costs.
However, originality is not obvious for Netease Cloud Music to quickly seize market share.
Netease Cloud Music Prospectus revealed that according to the revenue in 2020, Tencent Music accounted for 72.8% of the market share, and Netease Cloud only accounted for 20.5%. In 2020, Tencent’s music revenue has reached 29.15 billion yuan, while Netease’s vowel music revenue scale is 4.9 billion yuan.
In addition, Netease Cloud Music has been at a loss for nearly four years. From 2018 to 2021, Netease Cloud Music lost 1.72 billion yuan, 1.64 billion yuan, 1.52 billion yuan and 2.056 billion yuan respectively.
According to the latest first-quarter financial report, Netease Cloud Music’s loss has narrowed, with an adjusted net loss of 152 million yuan, which is 46.6% narrower than that in 2021.
Although the net loss has narrowed, Netease Cloud Music’s monthly revenue per paid user (ARPPU) is decreasing. Among them, the social entertainment service ARPPU, the core business of Netease Cloud, dropped from 553.3 yuan in the first quarter of 2021 to 329.8 yuan in the first quarter of 2022, while the online music service ARPPU dropped from 7.1 yuan to 6.4 yuan.
In addition, the monthly activity of Netease Cloud Music has also decreased. The monthly active users of online music service decreased from 183.1 million in the first quarter of 2021 to 181.7 million in the first quarter of 2022.

The lack of user growth and the decline of payment ability have become a common problem faced by the online music industry.
For example, Tencent Music, although the monthly user scale far exceeds Netease Cloud Music, has also experienced a year-on-year decline for eight consecutive quarters, which means that the growth of Tencent Music is gradually slowing down. In the first quarter of 2022, the number of monthly users of Tencent Music’s online music service decreased by 1.8% year-on-year to 604 million.
At the same time, the ARPPU of Tencent Music’s online music has also declined for five consecutive quarters. In the first quarter of 2022, the online music ARPPU of Tencent Music was 8.3 yuan/month, down 10.8% compared with the same period of last year.
Old players meet new Meng
Today’s online music market may usher in a new pattern.
This change is mainly reflected in the shift of the balance center of gravity between the major platforms for "copyright, users and musicians". That is to say, in addition to competition with each other, online music platforms have different weights for copyright, users and musicians.
Today’s online music platform is either merged like "QQ Music+Cool Dog Music+Cool Me Music" or exited like Xiami Music. But on the whole, the platform that survives today is larger, the competition is more concentrated than before, and it also faces the pressure of new players with strong backgrounds.
Different from the old players such as Netease Cloud Music and Tencent Music, new players such as Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker rely on their huge platform traffic to enter the market.
With the continuous popularity of "Tik Tok Hot Songs" and "Aauto Quicker Divine Comedy", the short video platform has more and more mastered the right to speak the current "hot songs", and the musical ambitions of Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker are far more than that.
Taking ByteDance as an example, following the launch of the first music APP "Soda Music" in 2021, an APP named "Sponge Band" was recently launched. According to the official introduction, this product will better serve "soda music" and users who need music editing in Tik Tok.
But the most direct impact is that many music copyright companies now take short video platforms such as Tik Tok as the first choice for the promotion of new songs, which is nothing more than another big crisis for old players.
From this point of view, with players such as short video platforms and live broadcast platforms entering the music track, it is more wise for Tencent Music and Netease Cloud Music to join hands to resist foreign enemies than to continue to hurt each other.
For Netease Cloud itself, with the help of WeChat status and circle of friends, reaching more users and playing a role of drainage and promotion, why not? Shake hands and make peace is also a way to survive.
