Double growth of membership size and revenue, positive quarterly operating profit ahead of schedule.

In the first quarter, the membership business maintained steady growth, which provided strong support for the overall performance of iQiyi to exceed expectations. In the first quarter, membership service revenue was 4.5 billion yuan, up 4% year-on-year and 9% quarter-on-quarter. This indicator has increased year-on-year for nine consecutive quarters. The average number of subscribed members in the first quarter was 101.4 million, a net increase of 4.4 million compared with the previous quarter.

This quarter, iQiyi focused on attracting users through high-quality new content, retaining users through rich and varied film library content, and adopting various operational measures to improve user loyalty and brand awareness. These measures were widely recognized by users and helped to consolidate the membership base, which in turn turned into stronger liquidity.

In the same period, the operational efficiency of the platform continued to improve. The cost continued to decline, and the revenue cost in the first quarter of 2022 was 6 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 16%; Expenditure on sales and management expenses was 740 million yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 38%.

Q1 Financial Report Partial Data

"In the past three quarters, our gross profit margin has continued to grow and reached a record high in the first quarter of 2022. At the same time, operating expenses continued to decline for three consecutive quarters. " Wang Jun, CFO of Aiqiyi, said, "Behind these figures are our unremitting efforts to improve operational efficiency and enhance business expansion, so as to better prepare for long-term development."

Rich in content reserves

Operational efficiency improvement

Long-term development and supply gradual system

In the first quarter of 2022, iQiyi continued to launch high-quality content.

The newly launched "The World", "A Picture Book of Hunting Crime" and "Heart Residence" have gained a good reputation, but also achieved a double harvest of social value and commercial value. In particular, "In the World" became a national explosion, loved by audiences of different ages and backgrounds, and attracted 25 advertisers to cooperate with the platform. In addition, high-quality content shows a good long tail effect, and these series continue to produce steady performance after the closing.

Iqiyi focuses on building content business from production to operation in a systematic way.

According to the financial report data, the content cost of iQiyi in this quarter was 4.4 billion yuan, both year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter. Gong Yu said: "Our goal is to obtain the most suitable content with the best ROI (return on investment) while maintaining the overall competitiveness and market leading position of iQiyi, and to maximize the realization with a reasonable amount of content."

Among them, iQiyi uses technology to further improve the production efficiency.

In the first quarter, the AI dubbing technology IQ-Dubbing developed by iQiyi was widely used in film dubbing, which effectively optimized the cost and promoted the revenue of long tail content. The IP development strategy of "one fish eats more" explores multiple opportunities for realizing high-quality content. The first work of iQiyi’s "Ancient Chinese City Universe" series-"The Wind Rises in Luoyang" IP has signed contracts to authorize more than 20 customers, and developed a variety of derivatives such as tide play, jewelry, clothing, food and beverage.

Stills of "The Wind Rises in Luoyang"

In terms of content storage, iQiyi has been committed to improving original production capacity, and has now established the largest and most professional producer team in the industry. Iqiyi expressed confidence in this year’s content reserves, especially the multi-core drama reserves. In the second quarter, "Dear Children" and "The Wind Rises in Longxi" were well received.

As for the impact of the epidemic, iQiyi said that due to a considerable amount of original content reserves and the operational experience accumulated in the past two years to deal with the epidemic, this round of epidemic rebound since March this year has limited impact on the content reserves of iQiyi’s future dramas.

Improving the overall content quality is the focus of iQiyi’s work. The platform will continue to introduce high-quality content, improve the quality of content, and use the advantages of the platform to build the content ecology of iQiyi.

Among them, we will continue to build content brands, strengthen the advantages of iQiyi in the vertical track through the serialization strategy of long dramas and the theatrical mode. Benefiting from rich content reserves, the platform launched a series of good works in the second quarter. At present, Dear Children, Greetings to the Qing Dynasty, The Wind Rises in Longxi and The Night Walker have received enthusiastic response from users, and the highly anticipated original TV series Life as First Seen and Police Honor will also be launched. In terms of theater, Xiaodiao Theater will broadcast the third work "Breaking Elite", and this year, Love Theater will also launch five new dramas. Variety, animation and children’s content will all launch new works under the strategy of seasonal broadcasting. For the upcoming summer file, the platform has prepared rich and diverse high-quality content, covering all core content types to meet the needs of users in different circles.

Publicity map of "Police Honor"

Iqiyi will continue to produce and distribute original films to enrich the content ecology. On April 15th, the film "Edge Walker" which was shown in major cinemas has exceeded 130 million yuan at the box office. On April 1st, Iqiyi upgraded the online movie cooperation mode, from the previous accounting according to the broadcast volume to the accounting according to the duration. The new accounting mode helps high-quality films to stand out and achieve a win-win situation for both the film and the platform.

Iqiyi Extreme Edition and overseas markets have become new growth points.

Iqiyi explores growth opportunities through new business models. In the first quarter of 2022, iQiyi Extreme Edition and overseas business continued to maintain a strong growth momentum.

Through continuous efforts to improve product and user experience, overseas business achieved steady growth in membership revenue and advertising revenue in the first quarter.

Iqiyi Extreme Edition, as a good supplement to the main station APP, maintained a strong performance in various operational indicators this quarter, with a monthly DAU of 5 million in the first quarter and over 5 million in April. The monetization mode of Iqiyi Extreme Edition is mainly based on effect advertisements, which is obviously different from the monetization mode of the main station APP based on membership subscription. The user portrait, monetization mode and content consumption behavior of iQiyi Extreme Edition are very different from those of the main station APP. The user overlap between iQiyi Extreme Edition and the main station APP decreased further in this quarter, and the DAU overlap was only about 4% in March. The consumption of the content in the library of iQiyi Extreme Edition is significantly higher than that of the main station APP, which greatly enhances the long tail value of the content in the library. Iqiyi believes that the Extreme Edition has great growth potential in terms of user scale and liquidity.

"The first quarter was a breakthrough for the company." Gong Yu believes that "the encouraging performance in the first quarter also shows that the long video industry can continuously generate operating profits. We are full of confidence in the long-term healthy development of the industry. "

Bmw i3 vs: my experience with these two electric cars.

Until recently, nameplates were usually associated with electrodynamics. Now, BMW has given the i3 a new meaning. The brand completed the production of hatchbacks in the summer of 2022, and re-launched the i3 as a full-range, exclusively for the China market, while the 3 Series has always been the leader in the high-end compact market segment in China.

Interestingly,Bmw i4It is also new. After personally experiencing these two cars, the following are the differences I found during the use of electric cars.

design

Although BMW i3 is currently sold only in China, i4 is sold worldwide and produced in Germany. BMW fans will not complain about the grille of the i3, because it imitates the front of the gasoline model.

There are two configurations: BMW i3 eDrive35L and BMW i3 eDrive40L. The last letter means that its length is 10 cm longer than that of ordinary 3 Series cars. The model discussed in this paper is BMW i3 eDrive35L.

BMW seems to have standardized the design of its electric car. andiX1andiX3Similarly, the BMW i3 sedan also uses a closed kidney grille with a shiny back. Its overall design is based on G20 3 series design. I4 is unique because of its huge grille, which extends to the lower air intake and has more than doubled in size.

Both electric cars are equipped with wheels. The BMW i3 sedan is equipped with 19-inch wheels, while the BMW i4 offers 18-inch and 19-inch wheel options on the American i4 eDrive40. More importantly, the size of i3 (191.8 inches) is longer than that of i4(188.5 inches). The wheelbase of i3 (116.7 inches) is also longer than that of i4(112.4 inches).

BMW has adopted a radical rear bumper design for these two electric car brothers and sisters. Interestingly, the wheelbase of i3 is longer than that of i4.

At the rear, the BMW i3 sedan is equipped with the same LED taillights as the 3 Series. In other words, both i3 and i4 are equipped with aggressive rear bumpers and optimized for air efficiency.

Interior decoration and characteristics

The interior of BMW i3 car is quite different from that of 3 Series. In fact, it is more in line with i4, despite its unique center console and door decoration design. The digital space of these two cars is the same. Both i3 and i4 use curved display panels, equipped with a 14.9-inch central touch screen infotainment system and a 12.3-inch digital cockpit.

The BMW i3 sedan is equipped with the M steering wheel on the sports i4 M50. Although the design is similar to the dashboard architecture, i4 is one of the first electric vehicles to turn to iDrive 8.5. Photo: BMW

However, the center console is unique. The gear selector of BMW i3 car is located behind the steering wheel, while i4 has a suitable gear lever. In other words, both cars have the same physical buttons for climate control and driving mode. Interestingly, the i3 is equipped with an M steering wheel (or a closely matched unit), which also appears on the i4 M50.

Both cars are equipped with BMW iDrive 8 software, and i4 recently switched to 8.5, which is simpler and more intuitive to operate compared with the older generation operating system. I3′ s system is compatible with WeChat, Small Scene 2.0, and other popular domestic platforms. It also supports.

specifications

Powered by a single motor mounted on the car, the BMW i3 eDrive35L can produce 282 horsepower and 295 lb-ft. It is equipped with a 66.1 kWh battery and can travel 327 miles with CLTC certification. On the other hand, the BMW i4 eDrive40 has a power of 335 HP and a torque of 317 lb-ft. It is equipped with a larger 81.5 kWh battery, which can provide a cruising range of 301 miles under the EPA cycle.

With the addition of i3 eDrive40L, the obvious performance advantages enjoyed by i4 single motor are short-lived. However, in the comparison between the two cars, the dual-motor eDrive40 variant is still the king of performance.

The first equipped 3 series

A novelty of BMW i3 car is the adaptive air suspension on the rear axle. This marks a watershed in the 47-year history of the 3 Series, because this is the first time that a customer has equipped an air suspension on a 3 Series model, which is also a standard configuration. However, this model is of China specifications, and the international version is unlikely to inherit this function in the current or next generation.

Both front and rear suspensions adopt hydraulic rebound damping technology, and with adaptive rear suspension, the riding quality on bumpy roads is said to be more stable. The height of the BMW i3 sedan is also 1.73 inches (44 mm) lower than that of the gasoline-powered 3 Series. The company said that the R&D department has reformed the parts and fine-tuned the suspension to adapt to the local market. BMW i4 has adopted a similar configuration in the global market, equipped with adaptive rear axle air suspension.

BMW fans in China have two matching electric cars to choose from.

Price and manufacturing

The price of BMW i3 eDrive35L is 359 RMB (US$ 49,811) in 900 yuan, and it was launched in China in May 2022. The price of i4 is higher in the local market, starting at 429 yuan (US$ 59,499) in 900 yuan. On board2026 BMW 3 Series of BMW Neue Klasse PlatformBefore the arrival, BMW is unlikely to offer i3 cars on the international market.

The i3 sedan is produced in the BMW Group’s most productive manufacturing plant in China. The electric 3 series is produced in Lydia factory of BMW Brilliance Automobile Co., Ltd. Lydia is a district of Shenyang City. On the other hand, BMW i4 has been produced in the German factory with a history of 100 years since October 2021.

The last thought

After spending quite a long time on these two German electric cars, I found that I chose i4 because of its rear style and more aggressive styling. Indeed, the i3 is more practical in terms of interior space, larger windows and more comfortable rear seats. However, since my main purpose is autonomous driving, I would choose the M50 variant with dual motors if I had a choice, so I would choose i4 between the two.

On December 4, according to Hong Kong media reports, the Hong Kong boy band MIRROR had a serious accident during a concert last year. The giant screen hanging in the air suddenly fell and hit dancer Li Qiyan (A Mo). He still needs to be hospitalized for treatment. His father, Li Shenglin, said that he is still receiving treatment and revealed his son’s daily treatment schedule, training 10 am to 6 pm every day, and getting up and turning around in the middle of the night with the assistance of his family. However, A Mo is very proactive to go to treatment. At present, he has walked 146 times with the help of instruments, 20-25 minutes each time, and walked a total of 470-480 steps. The doctor once said that in A Mo’s case, others will stay in the ICU for at least half a year, but it is a miracle that he can leave the ICU for two months.

It is reported that on July 28, 2022, when the Hong Kong idol boy group Mirror held a concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum, a serious accident occurred. A giant screen above the stage suddenly fell, hitting two dancers. The injured were rushed to the hospital, and the concert was immediately stopped.

　　Sichuan Online News (Reporter Deng Tongtong) There is such a mobile phone software that claims to be able to shop at half price, including charging the phone bill. Do you believe such a good thing?

　　Recently, Xiao Li, a college student in Chengdu, complained about an APP called "Half-price Group" through the online "Ask Politics Sichuan" platform in Sichuan. He spent two times "69 yuan" on the platform to recharge two different accounts. One account was "exchanged" for a phone card worth 100 yuan, and the other account was "exchanged" for a shopping fee in 69 yuan. Through the platform, the cash returned varied from 1 to 3 3 yuan every day, which 69 yuan could have received in full, but it was waiting for the process. — On August 7th, the half-price group suddenly revised the agreement, saying that "the shopping money below 100 yuan will no longer enjoy cashback", and Xiao Li felt cheated. (Original post link: http://ly.scol.com.cn/thread? tid=2757692)

　　Two people buy at half price, only one person gets the goods. Netizen: The routine is too deep.

　　Xiao Li became a half-price group user by accident. At school, she often asked a senior sister to help charge the phone bill. Every time she charged 100 yuan, it was always a few yuan cheaper, and the number of times she charged it was more and more familiar. "I thought that senior sister had any internal channels, but later I found out that she recharged her mobile phone through an APP called half-price group."

　　Under the introduction of the senior sister, Xiao Li became a user of the half-price group. "The rule is this. In name, I used 69 yuan to charge 100 yuan’s phone bill, but in fact, I asked to use two accounts to recharge 69 yuan on the platform at the same time. One account got a phone bill recharge card worth 100, and the other account got a platform shopping fee from 69 yuan." Xiao Li explained that all the platform shopping money in 69 yuan will eventually be returned to users, ranging from 1 to 3 yuan every day, and the specific amount will be allocated according to the operating conditions of the platform on that day.

　　In the face of such a huge profit, Xiao Li did not hesitate at all. "I thought that 69 yuan would eventually return it slowly anyway, and the amount was not much." She charged herself and her family for two months, spent hundreds of dollars, logged into the APP every day, activated her account and got cash back for shopping.

　　The good times didn’t last long. In the second week of August, Xiao Li found that there was an abnormality when logging in the account to withdraw the shopping money. After several days of trying, it didn’t improve. After many twists and turns, it was discovered that the platform had released an announcement on the modification of the agreement on August 7: the shopping money below 100 yuan no longer enjoyed cash subsidies, but it did not affect consumption. "I immediately tried to communicate with the customer service, but the other party said that the shopping money can be used for shopping in the platform mall." Xiao Li immediately entered the mall to browse, only to find that there were only more than ten kinds of goods, and the prices were all higher than the market price, and some goods were even as expensive as 10 times. "A catty of rice in 20 yuan, five noodles for 88 yuan, is simply ‘ Rob money ’ 。”

　　"When I became a half-price group user, the other party promised to return all the shopping money. If I don’t return it now, isn’t it equivalent to forcibly occupying the user’s funds?" Xiao Li is a little angry. "My platform shopping money is not much, only 200 yuan, but as a student, it is still very painful." She hopes to get justice through "asking politics in Sichuan".

　　Consumers have invested more than 10,000 yuan and dare not complain. They are worried that the platform will close the money.

　　Open the half-price group APP, advertising words "You want, we will pay half the money ‘ Purchase ’ "Suddenly appeared, become a member can enjoy half-price benefits? The answer may not be satisfactory, because in addition to Xiao Li, there are still many "traps".

　　In May this year, Mr. Shi registered two accounts in the half-price group, and often recharged through one account, and the effect of recharging half-price was achieved by cashback of one account. On August 7, after the rules of the half-price group were changed, the accumulated 129 yuan in Mr. Shi’s two accounts could not be withdrawn.

　　Netizen "Winona" revealed that some people around us have invested 10,000 yuan to buy a fuel card, which has been "set" at present. "The rules of APP describe the shopping money equivalent to RMB as a bonus, which is actually forcing consumers to buy at a high price in the name of half price." She believes that it is unreasonable and illegal to modify the rules without authorization. "The customer service said that the goods in the mall are new every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but after observing for one week, it was found that the products in Tonggong were only two or three weeks old.

　　Netizen "Mei Geni" said that there are not a few users who have invested 10,000 yuan, and some people have invested more than 300,000 yuan at most. She said that some users who have invested a lot of money don’t want to make a big deal out of it. They are worried that after the report, the company will have problems, and they will not get a penny back. "Because the user agreement stipulates that due to force majeure factors such as laws, regulations and policy changes in any country, the platform will be closed down, and the withdrawal will be terminated immediately. If the user’s shopping money is not withdrawn and consumed, we will not bear any legal responsibility."

Today’s People’s Daily published an article "Adding More Seaside Space for Citizens and Tourists" in the column "Practice of Ludao Butterfly in Xiamen", paying attention to the continuous beach protection and restoration in Xiamen, Fujian.

The article said that in the 1980s, due to natural and human factors, the beaches in Xiamen were damaged to varying degrees. The common method of early coastal protection is to build hard revetment with riprap and reinforced concrete. Xiamen, on the other hand, follows the principle of "beach is suitable" to restore beaches, enhance coastal protection capacity and carry out systematic protection and restoration of beaches.

Since 2007, Xiamen has successively completed the protection and restoration of many beaches such as Guanyin Mountain, Convention and Exhibition Center and Gulangyu Island, with a cumulative restoration area of 1.65 million square meters. In the process of protection and restoration, Xiamen insists on leaving the most beautiful coastline to the people. The total beach area of the city is 2.4 million square meters, which adds more sea-friendly space for citizens and tourists. Xiamen organically combines sports, culture, tourism and leisure facilities, and organizes beach football matches, beach culture festivals and other activities. The once dirty beach has become a scenic beach and an activity area for cultural and sports events.

In recent years, Xiamen has continuously strengthened cooperation with scientific research institutes in beach protection and restoration, increased investment in scientific research and development, and carried out basic and applied scientific research on beach conservation. Together with the Third Institute of Oceanography of the Ministry of Natural Resources and other units, a number of industry standards have been compiled and approved by the Ministry of Natural Resources, which has become an important support for scientific and standardized beach maintenance and restoration projects. Related technologies have been gradually extended to Guangdong, Hainan and other provinces, and have also been applied to coastal protection projects in countries such as Thailand and Sri Lanka where the Belt and Road Initiative is jointly built.

# Tell the truth # China history: a long and rich cultural heritage.

China, a country with a long history of 5,000 years, is famous for its profound cultural and historical heritage. From ancient Oracle Bone Inscriptions and bronzes, to a hundred schools of thought contending during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and then to Qin Shihuang’s unification of the six countries, the history of China is like a colorful picture, showing the wisdom, courage and determination of the people of China.

In ancient times, China was famous for its prosperous commerce, agriculture and handicrafts. Oracle Bone Inscriptions and bronzes in Shang Dynasty, as well as a hundred schools of thought contended during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, are all bright pearls in the history of China. These achievements of civilization not only have a far-reaching impact on China, but also have made important contributions to the development of world civilization.

After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, the history of China entered a feudal society. During this period, China’s politics, economy, culture and science and technology have made great progress. Great projects such as the Great Wall, the Grand Canal and the Terracotta Warriors were all initiated by Qin Shihuang, which fully demonstrated the diligence and wisdom of the people of China.

The Tang and Song Dynasties was another peak in the history of China. The prosperity and cultural prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, and the development of science, technology and commerce in the Song Dynasty have all contributed a lot to the history of China. Poetry of Tang and Song Dynasties is a cultural treasure of this period, and it is still praised by people.

After entering modern times, China experienced many wars and turbulence. However, the people of China have never given up their pursuit of a better life. In the War of Resistance against Japan, the people of China resisted the Japanese invaders and defended their homeland with perseverance. After the founding of New China, China began the road of reconstruction and development. Today, China has become the second largest economy in the world, and people’s living standards have been greatly improved.

Looking back at the history of China, we can’t help being proud of the wisdom, courage and determination of the people of China. The long and rich history of China is not only reflected in the ancient civilization heritage, but also in the tenacious resistance and unremitting efforts of the people of China in various periods.

Looking ahead, we believe that China will continue to maintain its historical and cultural heritage and innovation. In the new era, the people of China will continue to carry forward their fine traditions and spiritual qualities and work hard to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

To sum up, the history of China is a great epic full of wisdom, courage and determination. It is not only the precious wealth of China people, but also the common heritage of all mankind. Through in-depth study and understanding of the history of China, we can better understand the spiritual world and values of the people of China, and at the same time, we can better appreciate and inherit this great cultural heritage.

The eighth round of the Chinese Super League has started, but the news that Sun Zhuohao was detained by the police is still hotly debated. After all, he is also the first foreign player suspected of illegal activities in China football. Midfielder of Shandong Taishan Team, an active super league giant. First of all, it is certain that Sun Zhuohao’s career as a football player in China is completely over. Even if his last problem was minor and he was sentenced to several months’ detention, he would be rejected by domestic clubs and let a person play for at least five years.

Before Sun Zhuohao’s lawsuit is finally pronounced, Taishan Club will cancel the contract with him in advance and stand on the player’s side. Sun Junhao has just celebrated his 31st birthday. Although his career is usually short, it may be difficult for him to hold a steady position in Korean football, so he is basically the midfielder of Taishan team, and the outfielder might as well declare the end. My career.

You can also see Sun Junhao’s social media trends before his arrest. His social media is still public, because he has to make it public or private. Not only can many people view it, but you can also send him a message on holiday dynamics. After Sun Junhao’s accident, the latest news about his son and daughter was filled with angry messages from Korean fans. They expressed their disappointment with Sun Junhao, and angered that anyone who went to China to play football in the future would not be selected for the national team. While being bullied on the Internet, some fans are worried about his current situation and wish him an early and safe return.

Cyberbullying by Korean fans, such as "If you go to China to play football, don’t be selected for the national team", is obviously discriminatory, attacking not only Sun Junhao but also China football. It can be seen that Korean fans think that playing football in China is not only a career decline, but also influenced by the match-fixing environment in China League, but this view is obviously wrong. "Come to the domestic league, it doesn’t matter. There are still many China players who focus on football itself. Don’t blame your problems on the league."

It is worth mentioning that K-League match-fixing is rampant, more than Super League. "Korean fans can defend Sun Junhao, but they can’t blame others for their problems. Many Korean foreign AIDS have come to play in the Super League, and now Kim Min-jae, the first central defender in Asia, is also playing. " Super League, why can’t you check if there is no problem? Moreover, according to Korean fans, does this mean that Min-jae Kim will no longer need to join the national team? The essence of players is the same. No matter which country the players are in, there will always be players who seek profit first.

From scientist to entrepreneur, Yu Kai is not the first person to "run away" in the field of artificial intelligence.

Despite the previous achievements in scientific research, joining in entrepreneurship means facing the reality of bone feeling.

In March 2015, Yu Kai said in an interview: "If a business can get the resources it deserves to do what it wants, then choose to start a business; If you join a big platform and have more resources to do one thing, then join a big platform. " Sure enough, three months after that, he left Baidu and founded Horizon.

From the initial "no one pays the bill" to October this year, Horizon successfully won the investment of 2.4 billion euros from Volkswagen, setting the largest single investment record for Volkswagen in the past 40 years, and establishing a joint venture company with audi ag’s software company. The transformation of Yu Kai’s identity can be described as unsuccessful.

Before becoming the founder of Horizon, Yu Kai’s label was the top international scholar in the field of machine learning and the main promoter of deep learning technology in China. His published papers were cited more than 20,000 times, and he won the silver award for the best paper in ICML-2013 International Machine Learning Conference. He himself also served as the domain chairman of ICML and NIPS, two major conferences of machine learning.

Yu Kai’s achievements in the academic field go far beyond this.

NEC Research Institute of the United States was once one of the major centers of international machine learning research. During his tenure, Yu Kai established a highly prestigious technology research and development team in Silicon Valley. This team is one of the earliest and most active teams in the field of deep learning in the world. A series of technologies led and developed by him have pushed image object recognition to a new level worldwide, and won many international famous awards.

After joining Baidu in 2012, the voice technology team, deep learning technology team and image technology team led by Yu Kai won the "Baidu’s highest award" three times in succession, creating records of various technical and business teams within Baidu.

In the eyes of outsiders, Yu Kai at that time, both academically and professionally, was smooth sailing.

But at this time, he chose to start a business.

Yu Kai’s reason is straightforward: "In the past three years, what I have done at Baidu is to promote artificial intelligence in the cloud. But I think there will be a bigger trend in the next few years that I have to do: from artificial intelligence in the cloud to artificial intelligence around everyone. "

Therefore, Yu Kai, who has always believed in "doing things is the most important thing", founded Beijing Horizon Information Technology Co., Ltd. in July 2015, focusing on edge computing in the field of artificial intelligence.

From the moment the company was founded, in his own words: First of all, I will forget that I am a scientist more and more.

To be a scientist, you can put the mainexperienceDo research and write papers, but as an entrepreneur, you should focus more on business and customer needs.

Yu Kai has always wanted to grasp some "truth" things in this process, for example, things that can really create long-term value. With this idea in mind, at the beginning of Horizon’s establishment, he played the slogan of "making brains for machines", and avoided the edge of the field giants, took the edge computing route, and insisted on making AI chips.

It was really hard at first.

When recalling the initial stage of starting a business and determining the development direction, Yu Kai mentioned: At that time, we were predicting a far future, a future that might take 20 years as its dimension. From computers to smart phones, and beyond, what is a bigger computing platform than these? At that time, they were sure,beRobot computing platform. AI chip is the indispensable key to realize this calculation.

Now that we hear about AI chips, it’s needless to say its importance. But when Horizon was founded, not every investor could understand the "blueprint" in Yu Kai’s eyes. As a direct result, the horizon was once unsustainable. Until smart cars become "robots"calculate"The first and biggest landing scene at present, everyone began to understand that Yu Kai had bet on it.

In 2020, smart cars ushered in an outbreak period. As a result, there is a global "lack of core" in the automotive industry.question.

A chip with excellent computing power, like a smart brain, can accurately control the behavior of the vehicle. A series of functions, such as environmental awareness, route planning, driving assistance and so on, advertised by smart cars all need to rely on chips to be realized.

This is also consistent with what Yu Kai has always wanted to do. He has always believed that the real significance of artificial intelligence is not to survive and develop as the opposite of human life, but to support people’s decision-making and enhance their ability. Once the smart car scene is broken down, this ability will definitely spill over to others.floatApplication scenario of robot.

In August 2019, Horizon announced the mass production of China’s first car-class AI chip "Journey 2";

In September 2020, Horizon officially launched the AI chip "Journey 3";

In July, 2021, Horizon released "Journey 5", a high-performance and large-computing, full-scene intelligent central computing chip for the whole vehicle.

Yu Kai once said, "The course of a scientist’s entrepreneurship is not based on business opportunities,FromStart in the future. "

This cooperation between Horizon and Volkswagen may be the next future in Yu Kai’s plan.
