With the rise of takeaway platforms, ordering takeout has become a lifestyle habit for many young people. However, recently, a number of consumers have reported that the amount of takeout delivered is significantly less than that of dine-in, and they feel that it is not enough to eat. In order to investigate whether this phenomenon exists, a reporter from Beijing Youth Daily recently randomly selected 10 well-known chain restaurants with large takeaway sales such as Yoshinojia, Hallasan, and Meizhou Dongpo for investigation. The survey results show that 8 out of 10 samples do have a situation where the amount of takeout is less than that of dine-in, and the difference in the amount can be up to nearly 150 grams, which is equivalent to one-fifth of the dish size.

　　experiment

　　Random selection of 10 stores

　　Includes dinner, fast food and desserts

　　The first step is to buy

　　Dine-in takeaway is the same product in the same store

　　In order to find out whether the takeaway portion of the restaurant is really lower than the dine-in portion, the reporter of Beiqing Daily needs to complete the first step of the investigation – buying meals.

　　The Beiqing Daily reporter selected 10 well-known chain merchants including Yoshinojia, Hallasan, Manji Dessert, Meizhou Dongpo, First-hand Store, Fresh Taro Xian, Hegu, Dao Xiaoman Half Chicken Yunnan Rice Noodles, Jin Dingxuan, and First Best Chicken Chop with large takeaway sales. The purchase locations were randomly selected in 4 areas of Guomao, Red Temple, Tuanjie Lake, and the Asian Games Village on the North Fourth Ring Road, located in the East Third Ring Road. In order to make the measurement results more accurate, the dine-in meals selected by the Beiqing Daily reporter at the time of purchase and the meals ordered by the takeaway platform were all from the same store.

　　So, Beiqing Daily reporters bought 10 kinds of meals: Yoshinojia’s "Jiwei Shuangpin Rice", Hallasan’s "Kimchi Pork Bibimbap", Jin Dingxuan’s "Preserved Egg and Lean Meat Porridge", Manji Dessert "Durian Wangreturn", the first best big chicken chop "Salted Crispy Chicken", the first-hand store "Chicken Gizzard", Meizhou Dongpo’s "Boiled Beef", Fresh Taro Immortal "Taro Yuan No. 2", Dao Xiaoman Half Chicken Yunnan Rice Noodles "Big Crispy Beef Rice Noodles", and Hegu’s "Kung Pao Chicken Rice". The meals for the dine-in were ordered by Beiqing Daily reporters in the store. After each meal was served, the meal was packed into a lunch box and brought back. At the same time, the Beiqing Daily reporter ordered the same meal through Meituan, Baidu and other takeaway software.

　　The second step is to weigh

　　Weigh 20 meals

　　After purchasing 10 boxes of dine-in food and 10 boxes of takeaway food, the reporter of Beiqing Daily began the second step of the investigation – weighing. First, label each product with "takeaway" and "dine-in food" to distinguish it. Then on the same household kitchen electronic scale, weigh 20 meals separately, record the number of grams, and compare them one by one.

　　For example, at the Hallasan Fortune Center store, a reporter from Beiqing Daily ordered a "spicy cabbage pork belly bibimbap" for 35 yuan. The waiter brought a stone pot containing rice, spicy cabbage, pork belly, eggs, vegetables and other food. The reporter from Beiqing Daily asked the waiter to pack the box and poured all the food in the stone pot into the box. At the same time, he ordered the same "kimchi pork belly bibimbap" for 36 yuan through Meituan takeaway.

　　The Beiqing Daily reporter noticed that in the takeaway delivered, the same takeaway box contained a layer of small plastic baffles, the lower layer was rice, and the upper layer was spicy cabbage, pork belly and other foods, but the vegetables were obviously not as much as the dine-in. Therefore, with an additional layer of small baffles in the takeaway packaging box, the Beiqing Daily reporter weighed them separately, and the final dine-in weight was 706 grams, and the takeaway weight was 561.4 grams, which means that the dine-in portion was 144.6 grams more than the takeaway.

　　The third step, the survey results

　　8 merchants take out less than dine-in

　　The survey results show that in terms of weight, 8 of these 10 stores have less takeaway than dine-in. The top three are Hallashan, Meizhou Dongpo, and Fresh Taro, with a weight difference of 144.6 grams, 135.2 grams, and 132.9 grams, respectively. In other words, after randomly testing 10 stores, Beiqing Daily can come to a conclusion that 80% of merchants have less takeout than dine-in.

　　The reporter of Beiqing Daily calculated the percentage again, and it can be seen that if the missing amount of takeaway is compared with the original dine-in amount, the top three with the highest proportion of dine-in amount are Fresh Taro Immortal, Hallasan, and Yoshinojia, which are 20.7%, 20.5%, and 16.9% respectively. That is to say, the takeaway amount of Fresh Taro Immortal and Hallasan is one-fifth less than that of dine-in.

　　If you look at the appearance of the dishes, the dine-in and takeaway of the 10 restaurants do not look much different, but if you compare them carefully, you can still find the differences. Comparing the two boxes of Yoshino’s "Jiwei Shuangpin Rice", the Beiqing Daily reporter found that the takeaway chicken was 5 pieces, the packaged dine-in was 6 pieces, the amount of beef was visually significantly less than the dine-in, and the carrots in the side dishes were also significantly less.

　　From the price point of view, the takeaway price of 8 stores is the same as that of dine-in. The takeaway price of 2 stores is slightly higher. Among them, the stone pot bibimbap in Hallashan is 1 yuan more expensive than dine-in, and the takeaway of Jin Dingxuan’s preserved egg and lean meat porridge is 0.3 yuan more expensive than dine-in.

　　survey

　　Business claims vary

　　Attribution standards are not uniform

　　Claim one

　　The dine-in and takeaway standards for the same meal are different.

　　In Hallasan, the same food is called "spicy cabbage pork belly stone pot bibimbap" in the store, and the takeaway is called "kimchi pork belly stone pot bibimbap". The dine-in is more and cheaper than the takeaway. Why is this? A reporter from Beiqing Daily called the Hallasan Fortune Center Store. The staff of the store said that many customers have called to inquire about this issue. Since June and July this year, Hallasan’s dine-in and takeaway have begun to have different standards, which has led to different portions of the two.

　　"Before, our store and takeaway were called’Spicy cabbage bibimbap ‘, but after the company managed the takeaway separately in June and July, the bibimbap was changed to’Kimchi bibimbap’ on the takeaway page." The staff member said, "To say the difference is that the takeaway vegetables are missing bean sprouts and spinach, and the spicy cabbage and pork belly are the same." As for whether there is a specific gram number rule, the other party said that the company stipulates that the takeaway rice is 280 grams, and the dine-in is 250 grams. As for the specific weight of the dishes, I don’t remember, but it does make the takeaway lighter than the dine-in because of the lack of two vegetables.

　　The staff member also introduced that, except for the two dishes such as tuna bibimbap and bibimbap that have not been renamed, the names of the dishes on the takeaway page are inconsistent with the store, and the standards are also different. The reason, the other party explained, "This is a unified arrangement of the company, and the takeaway business and the dine-in business are managed by different departments. We don’t know the specific reasons ourselves."

　　Claim two

　　The weight of the takeaway is "affected" by the takeaway box.

　　The reporter of Beiqing Daily found in the investigation that regular restaurants have customized takeaway boxes, so many merchants also "blame" the different weights of dine-in and takeaway to the takeaway box. The reporter of Beiqing Daily purchased the Meizhou Dongpo boiled beef dine-in weight is 945.6 grams, and the takeaway weight is 810.4 grams, a difference of 135.2 grams. In this regard, the reporter of Beiqing Daily called the Meizhou Dongpo Tuanjiehu store. The staff of the store asked about the dishes ordered by the reporter of Beiqing Daily and said that whether it is takeaway or dine-in, the beef in the boiled beef in the store should be the same. Maybe it is the different amount of vegetables or soup at the bottom that leads to the different amounts of dine-in and takeaway.

　　"We have the same standard of dishes for dine-in and takeaway. We have a lot of dishes, so different dishes correspond to different packing boxes. Sometimes considering that there is too much soup for the takeaway box to hold or the takeaway box is not easy to deliver, the master will put less soup." The staff member said that there may be visual reasons why customers think that the takeaway is not as much as the dine-in. "For example, our master will put two tablespoons into the flat plate, which looks more, but the same amount in the takeaway box will look less."

　　Claim three

　　More and less, subject to the baseline of the container.

　　In response to this situation, a reporter from Beiqing Daily called Fresh Taro Xian, and the staff said that they have certain standards when serving desserts, but they are not accurate to the weight. "Take Taro Yuan No. 2 as an example. When serving desserts in the store, we will take the second line of the’taro ‘printed on the bowl as the criterion, and the takeaway box is generally filled to 90%." However, the other party said that there is no clear weight regulation for the red bean soup of Taro Yuan No. 2 and the ingredients added to it, but only a baseline. In other words, it is not necessarily clear to the merchants who has more or less than 90% of the takeaway and the baseline of dine-in. Text/This newspaper reporter, Peng Xiaofei, Li Mengting

　　expert

　　Takeaway weight is less dishonest behavior

　　The lack of standardization of food products makes it difficult to protect rights

　　In response to the findings of this investigation, Chen Yinjiang, deputy secretary-general of the China Consumer Law Research Association, analyzed that there may be two factors contributing to this phenomenon: first, due to the non-face-to-face purchase behavior, the merchants have dishonest behavior of "lacking weight". Second, due to the price competition of takeaway platforms, the cost of merchants has increased. Chen Yinjiang said that now the price competition of takeaway platforms is fierce, and merchants will inevitably make up for the cost by other means while accepting the takeaway platform and increasing the packaging cost. This part is likely to be passed on to consumers in the end.

　　Under normal circumstances, merchants do not have a clear standardized regulation on how much a meal should be. The lack of measurement standards is a problem in itself, and it also directly affects consumers’ rights protection. "This kind of behavior is actually a dishonest practice. Consumers choose takeout mainly for convenience. When consumers choose to order takeout, they have accepted the possible uncertainties such as hygiene. These are invisible, and the lack of weight is visible, which will directly lead to a crisis of trust among consumers in merchants." (Text/This reporter, Peng Xiaofei)

Among them, Yizhao Weide Dongfang Weiye Store refused to refund and withdraw as promised after being complained about prepayment, Jinjiniao Gym was complained about terminating operations but not refunding, and Huxiaoer Cleaning was complained about not being able to book services after prepaid service packages.

In addition, the surging quality report has also received problems such as arbitrary maintenance charges, poor service attitude of the online car-hailing platform, real estate companies refusing to repay the house, and difficulty in refunding tickets in case of epidemic typhoons. After the intervention of the surging quality report, some consumers have reached an agreement with operators, and some complaints have not been resolved.

Fitness, education and other industries have been repeatedly complained about "difficulty in refunding prepayment and recharge cards"

Last week, among the Surging Quality Report complaint platform, there were an increase in complaints about consumer disputes over prepaid recharge in the fitness, education and other industries, involving 16 complaints.

Yarui Dental was complained that the establishment of a medical account required prepayment and could not refund the balance.

After the intervention of the Surging Quality Report, some operators have refunded the balance to consumer accounts, and some operators have said that they have started the refund process. There are still many consumers who have not yet reached an agreement with the operators and are still being coordinated.

Last week, companies handled consumer complaints:

Resolved:

Last week, the surging quality report received China Mobile, Shanghai Wanliu Haimei Culture and Sports Investment Management Co., Ltd., Bilibili, Zhongzhi Care Tong (Shanghai) Technology joint stock company, Shanghai Zhuxiu Business Management Co., Ltd., Dingquan Fitness, China Telecom, Heart Network, Shanghai Huayu Qidi Automotive Sales Co., Ltd., Bufan Mailer Candy China Co., Ltd. Shanghai Minhang Branch, Herbalife, Starbucks, Qunar, Shanghai Hang Lung LV, Vipshop, Yarui Dental, Linnei Water Heater, Da Da English, Great Wall Broadband, Sam’s Club, Shanghai Bend Fitness Service Co., Ltd., Choosing Teachers Worry, Huxiaoer Cleaning, Shanghai Jingsirui Education and Training Co., Ltd., etc. Dozens of related complaints from 24 companies After mediation and reporting, consumers and enterprises have reached an agreement, and the problem has been successfully resolved.

Among them, a tourist failed to cancel the Shanghai Toy Story Hotel due to the typhoon. According to the surging quality report, a full refund has been made to the consumer’s account.

No response:

Last week, complaints from Zhejiang Ode to Joy Hotel Management Co., Ltd., Fengzhixing Flagship Store, Panasonic Refrigerator JD.com Self-operated Flagship Store, Changsha Unicom, Xiaomi, Zhongtong Express, Shanghai Jinjiniao Enterprise Investment Management Company, Yangzhou Five Star Electric Appliance Co., Ltd., Didi’s Hua Xiaozhu Platform, JD.com Mall, Tianjin Airlines Co., Ltd., Zhixing App, Poly Property, Alipay, Ma Rong Kairui Kindergarten, Liupanshui Unicom Business Hall and other enterprises have not been responded to.

Among them, educational institutions such as Banyu Children’s English, Good Scores, Qiyue Education Institution, and Beijing Zhongyu Boxue Education Technology Co., Ltd. have not started classes due to the "double reduction policy", and it is difficult to refund many times. Complaints have not been properly resolved.

Failure to reach an agreement with consumers:

1. Zhongtong Express joint stock company: Consumers complained that more than 200 orders of goods at express outlets were collected and some were not delivered, and there was no logistics information update. Zhongtong Express responded that in response to customers’ reports of express delays, after verification, 50 of them were delayed, and the freight of 125 yuan could be refunded for this part; because customers still did not want to provide some order numbers, more than 200 orders of express delivery could pay a total of 1,000 yuan and apologize. Consumers did not accept the processing results and asked for compensation of 25,000 yuan. At present, the two parties have not reached an agreement.

2. Dongguan Guancheng Meihui Mingjia Meideli: When consumers complained that the store sold whole-house customized wardrobes and cabinets, the order contract clearly stipulated that the contract could be cancelled. Now the contract needs to be cancelled but the refund is refused. The person in charge of the store said that after verification, there were no violations in the business process, and the design plan has been confirmed with consumers. The consumer’s behavior is a unilateral breach of contract, so the consumer’s refund cannot be satisfied. At present, the two parties have not reached an agreement.

3. Bright Dairy: Consumers complained that a foreign object similar to a straw was sucked out of Bright Dairy Changyou yogurt, which was not a distribution straw, and demanded compensation of 1,000 yuan according to the relevant provisions of Article 148 of the Food Safety Law. Bright Dairy said that after door-to-door verification, the foreign object was a straw packaging bag, which was one-third of the normal straw packaging bag. Because the straw is directly delivered to the logistics warehouse and does not enter the factory workshop, it cannot enter the product packaging during the production process. The company believes that it does not meet the relevant provisions of Article 148 of the Food Safety Law. At present, the two parties have not reached an agreement.

4. Swarovski Global Harbor Store: Consumers complained that a crystal pen purchased in the store before needed to be repackaged. During the service process, there was no warranty card, and the service level of the clerk was poor. Swarovski (Shanghai) said that the operator needs the consumer to provide the warranty card of the product before providing packaging services. At present, the two sides have not reached an agreement.

5. Easy learning badminton training: Consumers complained that the agency opened a payment channel on Dianping. After payment, the merchant did not provide the promised service and could not refund. After negotiation with the Yangpu District Consumer Protection Committee, the platform said that the venue fee and the class fee that has been attended should be deducted, and then the remaining money will be returned. Consumers said that they are only willing to deduct the class fee that has been attended. At present, the two parties have not reached an agreement.

6. Shanghai Mobile: After the consumer complained that the mobile phone number was down, he was told by Shanghai Mobile that the minimum monthly consumption should reach 200 yuan, and 200 yuan will be deducted for less than 200 yuan, and the time limit is 10 years. Shanghai Mobile said that the "preferred number" service is prompted on the purchase page to meet the minimum monthly consumption. After the consumer pays the minimum monthly consumption, he can assist him in closing the account. At present, the two sides have not reached an agreement.

7. Hengnan County Water Supply Company: Consumers complained that the company charged the price of water leakage according to the water used in special industries. Hengnan County Water Supply Company said that it is a water leakage behind the meter, and consumers need to be responsible for it or find a developer to solve it. The charges for special industries meet national standards. At present, the two parties have not reached an agreement.

[CNMO Technology News] In the near future, on June 21-23, the Huawei Developer Conference will be officially held. At this conference, the most attention is paid to the "Pure Blood Hongmeng" HarmonyOS NEXT system. Recently, some bloggers released some details of the latest development version 2 of the system (HarmonyOS NEXT DP2) on Weibo.

The blogger said that the animation effect of HarmonyOS NEXT DP2 is better than that of Android, and the theme is also very rich. The new system also greatly reduces advertising, and also adds a "developer option" function similar to Android; he also revealed that the AI function of the new system may be powerful, but it has not been reflected in the current development version.

It is understood that HarmonyOS NEXT Hongmeng Galaxy Edition system base self-developed, cut the traditional Linux kernel, AOSP (Android open source project) and other code, only support Hongmeng kernel and Hongmeng system applications, so the new system is no longer compatible with Android APK applications.

It is reported that the emergence of pure blood Hongmeng can further improve the performance of devices equipped with new Kirin chips. Due to the support of hyperthreading in Kirin 9000S and 9010, the performance of the device has been released after upgrading HarmonyOS NEXT, plus the embedded Pangu large model and 12G or more memory, it is the first mobile phone operating system with end-side Al capability. And the use of new drivers and APIs will improve the GPU performance of Kirin 9000/9010 devices by about 15%, and the fluency will be further improved, which is comparable to iOS.

　　Before you know it, the Spring Festival in 2018 is less than two months away, and many people are starting to think about the train tickets for returning home during the Spring Festival!

　　This year’s New Year’s Eve is on February 15, and the first day of the first lunar month is on February 16, so the Spring Festival travel in 2018 will come a little later than usual.

　　The time to "grab tickets" for the Spring Festival travel home is almost up. For every friend who works outside, this is a "big battle" of speed and luck, and it is time to use the "power of the flood"! So, what should I pay attention to when buying train tickets for the 2018 Spring Festival travel?

　　Train ticket pre-sale status:

　　On January 3, 2018, you can buy tickets for the first day of the Spring Festival (February 1).

　　You can buy tickets for New Year’s Eve (February 15) on January 17, 2018.

　　You can buy tickets for the Spring Festival on January 18, 2018 (February 16).

　　Citizens who need to buy tickets can purchase Spring Festival tickets in a timely manner by ordering online and by phone.

　　Pay attention to ticket purchase information in time

　　The correct ways to purchase tickets are:

　　Call the railway customer service center at 95105105 to book tickets.

　　Login www.12306.cn purchase tickets;

　　Mobile 12306 client side ticket;

　　Ticket purchase at the train station window.

　　Train ticket sales and railway station ticket vending machine.

　　Never trust third-party software to avoid being deceived.

　　45 minutes after the train ticket is sold, if some ticket-grabbing netizens fail to pay in time, these ticket sources will be returned to the ticket warehouse after 45 minutes.

　　Tips

　　According to past experience, 15 days before driving is the peak refund period. In addition to the first ticket release, sometimes the railway department will also release tickets in batches at other times after the sale of tickets. Generally, tickets will be released at the hour and half of the day. 48 hours and 24 hours before driving, the ticketing system often releases some of the remaining tickets.

　　In addition, passengers who purchase tickets at 12306 for the first time need to present their ID cards to the ticket window for identity verification in advance, otherwise they will not be able to purchase tickets online.

　　The Spring Festival travel in 2018 is from February 1st to March 12th, a total of 40 days. From December 12th, the pre-sale period for Internet and telephone bookings is 30 days, and the pre-sale period for station windows and agency points is 28 days.

　　Attention those who are always ready to grab tickets, the opening time of different stations on the same opening day is also different. If you are afraid of late or early robbery, you can call 12306 to inquire about the opening time of the station or pay attention to the official WeChat account of 12306. The following ticket-grabbing strategy should get up quickly!

　　[Seize the opportunity to grab tickets]

　　12306 sells tickets every day, but the ticket release time varies from station to station and train to train.

　　It is very difficult to grab tickets during the Spring Festival, so it is necessary to choose a few more trains as alternatives, and cast a wide net to catch fish! The time for each train to release tickets should be set in advance, because the time period with the highest success rate of ticket grabbing is usually within half a minute of ticket release.

　　[Pay attention to the remaining ticket situation]

　　Don’t give up if you don’t get the ticket as soon as possible, because there will be extra tickets released later. During the Spring Festival travel period, extra tickets may be released on the hour or half of the daily ticket sales time, with a higher chance of 12:00/13:00/18:00.

　　In addition, the probability of remaining tickets appearing at 19:00-20:00 three days before driving and 12:00-13:00 one day before driving is also higher.

　　[Follow the temporary train]

　　During the Spring Festival travel period, the railway department will open more temporary trains according to passenger demand. Tickets for temporary trains are not subject to pre-sale restrictions. Once they are confirmed to run, an announcement will be issued and the tickets will be released as soon as possible. Paying attention to the announcements of temporary trains can also greatly increase the probability of grabbing tickets.

　　[Hop station, transfer]

　　If the train you want to buy is not from the departure station to the terminal, you can try to buy a ticket for the first few stops or the next few stops to the station, or buy a zone ticket to get on the bus first, and make up the ticket for the rest of the journey; if you can’t buy a direct ticket, you can also consider the "curve to save the country" transfer route.

　　In addition, the following "six unbelievers" must also be kept in mind! It is relatively light to be deceived of money, and it will cause you to lose both money and votes. If you can’t return home, it will be a tragedy!

　　Before grabbing tickets, you can urgently supplement the following knowledge, which can greatly increase the chance of success!

　　And these are the operations.

　　[Points membership system]

　　From December 20th, the railway department launched the "Railway Smooth" frequent flyer membership service. Frequent flyer members will receive corresponding points when purchasing tickets, which will be accumulated according to the fare. If they reach more than 10,000 points for the first time, they will be eligible for redemption, which can be used to redeem train tickets for trains designated by the railway department. The redeemed tickets can also be transferred to other small partners!

　　From December 20, 2017, natural persons over the age of 12 can become frequent flyer members of "Railway Flow" after actively applying and completing identity authentication through the channels provided by the railway department such as the 12306 website (including mobile APP) and the special window of the station. Valid documents for applying for railway frequent flyer membership include resident ID cards, Hong Kong and Macao residents’ travel permits to and from the mainland, Taiwan residents’ travel permits to and from the mainland, passports, etc.

　　Railway frequent flyer members will get corresponding ride points when purchasing tickets, and the points will be accumulated according to the ticket fare they purchased. Specifically, points will be accumulated according to 5 times the face price of the ticket, that is, passengers will get 500 points when purchasing a 100 yuan ticket.

　　If the points reach more than 10,000 points for the first time, you will be eligible to redeem points, which can be used to redeem train tickets for trains designated by the railway department. The passenger who uses the redeemed ticket can be the member himself or the transferee set by him.

　　In other words, as long as you accumulate a train ticket of 2,000 yuan, your points can reach 10,000 points, and you can redeem the train ticket for the designated train! This is easy for friends who often travel on business.

　　[Online ticket purchase and replenishment can be paid by WeChat]

　　Since November 23rd, China Railway Client Server Center 12306 website WeChat Pay function on-line practice run.

　　Passengers with WeChat Pay accounts can choose "WeChat Pay" on the 12306 website and the mobile client side payment page to make purchases.

　　Stations, ticket windows, and ATM self-service ticket machines in major cities across the country will also gradually support WeChat scan payment.

　　What’s more, starting this month, the use of WeChat Pay will also be fully promoted for railway passenger train tickets nationwide!

　　[Free 5 yuan handling fee for remote ticket collection]

　　Since October 1, 2017, China Railway has cancelled the ticketing fee for railway off-site tickets. In the future, the railway station ticket window and the agency window will no longer charge an additional 5 yuan per ticket for purchasing off-site train tickets.

　　The EMU has opened the "seat selection" function.

　　Since October 12 this year, China Railway Corporation has launched two new convenience services: the "continuous transfer" scheme and the "independent seat selection" of EMU trains.

　　[Choose your own seat]

　　When purchasing tickets on the 12306 website or mobile client side, the system will automatically provide a seat schematic diagram for everyone to choose.

　　[Continuous transfer]

　　When there is no ticket or no direct train between the departure and destination, you can choose the "continue transfer" function, and the system will automatically plan the transfer route for you.

　　[You can order takeaway for high-speed trains and high-speed rail]

　　From July 17 this year, passengers who take EMU trains with G and D prefixes can book meals through the 12306 website, mobile APP and other means. Passengers can not only order meals served by the train dining car, but also social brand meals served at the food stations along the way. When passengers buy tickets on the Internet, they can order meals online simultaneously. After the order is successful, the railway station service staff will deliver the meals to the designated trains, carriages and seats.

Twins send trophy to Andy


Andy Lau was very touched

Twins come to cheer on Andy

　　The first performance table of the 2010 music industry "New Town Madden Music Awards Ceremony" was distributed on the evening of the 29th. Andy Lau, who was holding a solo concert, won the "World Madden Most Popular Supreme Singer" award. Although he could not appear at the awards ceremony, he won the Twins Human Flesh Express Award for his star fans, which surprised Andy.　

　　"Andy Lau Unforgettable Concert" was held in the Red Pavilion on the evening of the 29th, and the following day, after making an exception to invite two guests, Jia Sile and Ye Qianwen, to perform, two groups of four guests were found that night, namely the girl group Twins and At17. Twins was even more surprising. When Cai Zhuoyan and Zhong Xintong attended the New Town Madden Awards Ceremony, the two immediately rushed to the Red Pavilion and secretly brought Hua Zai’s "World Madden’s Most Popular Supreme Singer" trophy as a "meet and greet".　

　　When Andy introduced Twins to the scene, he said: "I watched them enter the industry. They have gone through a lot of ups and downs like me, and every time I am disappointed, I will receive text messages from them to comfort me." Then Twins appeared with Andy’s trophy, which surprised Andy and asked back: "Even if I didn’t attend, I will get a prize?" Ah Sa and Gillian not only supported Andy with their actions, but also burst out that they are super fans of Andy and members of his fan club. However, Andy kicked out that they have rarely participated in fan activities in recent years. Twins laughed and said: "We are forever honorary members!"　

　　As for another girl group, At17, who appeared in the Encore session and sang "I Hate Me" with Andy Rock Popular Hall, a round of strong songs and dances heated up the atmosphere. Andy, who used this solo song to commemorate 30 years of entry into the industry, joked: "At first I called At17 because I thought they were like me, and they all entered the industry at the age of 17. Isn’t that very interesting? I only knew it wasn’t the case after asking." At17 immediately added: "Wrong is wrong! You have a song called" Seventeen ", and we also have a song called" Seventeen Years Old ", which is also a fate!"　

　　Andy said bluntly that today’s music scene needs new blood like them. In order to support the younger generation, Andy also promised to hold a concert at At17 in the future, and will be obliged to be the concert guest of the two. (Photo and text/Tungstar)

　　As two of the most important new cars in 2021, Changan UNI-K and Geely Xingyue L have a good "mass base". UNI-K’s sci-fi avant-garde vehicle design seems to meet the aesthetic needs of young consumers, while Xingyue L’s calm and atmospheric style is more suitable for family users to buy. Although the positioning of models is different, it is quite topical to combine the same body level and similar price range. Who is the most fashionable car in China at present?

　　UNI gravity sequence is the focus of Chang ‘an’s upward development, and the first model, Changan UNI-T, became a hit with its sci-fi avant-garde design. As the flagship model of Changan family, Changan UNI-K is the second product of Changan UNI series, which has attracted a lot of attention since the release of Guangzhou Auto Show in November last year. Large and medium-sized SUV, borderless design, interior quad screen, and blue whale’s new generation 2.0T power, it can be said that the strongest strength of Changan family at present is concentrated on it.

　　Geely KX11 based on CMA platform, that is, Xingyue L, is also about to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the flagship product of Geely brand. Since Xingrui looks like Volvo S60, Geely’s new products have become closer to its luxury brand Volvo, forming a brand-new family face, and Xingyue L is no exception. After seeing the real car map for the first time, many netizens exclaimed the "mystery similarity" between Xingyue L and XC60. As a new flagship car, the "L" in the name of Xingyue L has the meanings of Larger, luxurious and subversive, which means the upgrade of body size, space and power.

　　Changan UNI-K locates medium and large SUVs, with length, width and height of 4865/1948/1690mm and wheelbase of 2890mm respectively. Previously, the borderless design on Changan UNI-T has been improved, and the side shape of the car body has a contemporary simple style, with pure, precise and concise lines. In order to create a more sporty feeling, the new car adopts a sleek shape, and the windowsill is also narrowed upwards. Designers boldly abandoned the complex body lines and adopted the "V" shape body design, shaping the futuristic feeling of the body through curved surfaces and light and shadow. The two sides of the rear of the car and the black diffuser are all familiar UNI family elements. The difference is that the new car also uses a penetrating LED taillight to enhance the visual effect.

　　The front face of Geely Xingyue L adopts a relatively heavy design, with a straight waterfall concave front grille and four ribs raised on the hood, which makes this car look very domineering. The brand-new headlights are also quite designed, surrounded by double-layer LED headlights, while the interior is composed of two separate light sources, and the front surrounded by a horizontal bar grille is also full of sports atmosphere.

　　From the side of the car body, Geely Xingyue L creates a more hard-core style through the high car body and the raised wheel eyebrows. At the same time, the flat roof design can also provide sufficient head space to a certain extent, making the passengers in the car more comfortable. In terms of the tail, the overall visual effect of the multi-layer lines at the tail of the new car is luxurious, and the through taillight group with the concave license plate frame below is very eye-catching. In terms of size, the length, width and height of Geely Xingyue L are 4770/1895/1689mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2845 mm..

　　The interior design of Changan UNI-K gave us a big surprise. It not only adopted a brand-new four-screen linkage and UI design, but also changed the style of the steering wheel and even the angle of viewing the dashboard. Now the driver only needs to cross the steering wheel to easily read the instrument information. UNI-K’s dashboard uses three screens, each of which has its own functions, and information such as driving information, navigation and music can be seen at a glance. The screen on the right can also be used as the rear image display of the streaming media rearview mirror. It is officially announced that the car of Changan UNI-K can be turned on in 4.7s, and it is equipped with Iflytek Full Scene Intelligent Voice Interactive System.

　　The interior of Geely Xingyue L adopts the dual screen design of the central control screen and the co-pilot entertainment screen, which makes the new car both scientific and fashionable. At the same time, the center console adopts double color matching design, plus neat stitching and materials, which creates the texture and luxury of the new car. In addition, it is revealed that the new car is expected to be equipped with Geely’s latest digital intelligent cockpit system and a higher level of autonomous driving technology.

　　Changan UNI-K is equipped with Blue Whale’s new generation 2.0T engine, with a maximum power of 171kW and a peak torque of 390N·m, matching Aisin 8-speed automatic manual transmission. The top version of the car is equipped with a timely four-wheel drive system from Borgwarner, and three modes can be switched by buttons near the bar. Changan UNI-K will mainly promote the 2.0T version in advance. In order to take care of the needs of users in different regions, the PHEV plug-in hybrid version will also be arranged.

　　Geely Xingyue L is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine code-named JLH-4G20TDJ. Thanks to the CMA platform technology, the dual-power versions are 218 horsepower and 238 horsepower respectively. The low-power version will be matched with 7DCT, while the high-power model will be equipped with Aisin 8AT.

　　Whether it’s UNI-K’s avant-garde sci-fi or Xingyue L’s maturity and steadiness, from the words of countless fans, we can see that the upward breakthrough of independent brands is still very successful, and it also reflects from one side that the control strength of local car companies in the consumer demand level is very strong. We are happy to see more and more products that are more in line with national conditions and consumer demand. After the official release of these two cars at the Shanghai Auto Show, the large-scale car evaluation meeting will bring you a more detailed product evaluation experience report for the first time, so please pay attention.
