Conquer the problem of sound quality and thickness! Casarte Mural TV: Ultra-thin and good sound quality

  Nowadays, music variety shows such as "Summer of the Band" are not available, but watching music shows on TV always seems to be just passable. This is because under the trend of "thinner and lighter" TV, some brands choose the built-in small-size speaker unit in order to pursue the ultra-thin body. The listening experience is disappointing, and it is difficult to produce surround immersion sound effects, so it cannot resonate with the audience.

  Casarte conquered the problem of sound quality and thickness, bringing ultra-thin and good sound quality. Casarte Mural TV not only has the best 5.2.2 sky sound in the industry, but also cooperates with 122W
The combination of super-high-power speakers and independent audio perception processing chips has raised the level of TV sound quality to a new level. At the same time, it integrates true art and technology, and transforms the TV into a mural through zero-paste design and flat-mount technology, creating a more artistic and technological living space for users.

    Sound quality and thickness are difficult to balance? Casarte TV brings ultra-thin and good sound quality

  When users buy a TV, they are nothing more than considering the two levels of "sound and painting". However, looking at the technological development of the TV industry, the image quality has changed from SD and high definition to the current 4K and 8K ultra-high definition, opening the door to "new horizons" for users. However, the development of sound quality is difficult to break through, and it has become a shortcoming of TV technology change. In order to pursue ultra-thin bodies, some brands choose built-in small-size speaker units, resulting in poor sound bass, good sound quality and ultra-thin appearance are difficult to balance.

  Nowadays, under the trend of ultra-thin TVs, the space of TV audio boxes is too small, which leads to these four factors affecting the sound quality of TVs: First, the configuration of sound units, such as the limited configuration of sound units, cannot ensure that the sound forms enough reflections in the cavity, resulting in too much noise or not enough sound. Second, the audio power, the more powerful the speaker can release higher sound clarity and better sound effects; third, the sound quality processing chip, intelligently optimize the sound source and transmission method, effectively improve the sound signal strength, and the sound is more powerful. Fourth, the influence of the sound field, the sound emitted by the TV will be continuously reflected by the wall, ceiling and furniture before entering the ear. Only with a high sound field adjustment ability can users upgrade the immersive surround sound experience.

  In order to overcome the problem of TV sound quality and thickness, Casarte has undergone 5,000 hours of research and development and 1,000 acoustic simulation tests to solve three major challenges in the industry.

  First of all, in the audio speaker arrangement, Casarte TV boldly dismantles the main board of the whole machine, prioritizes the placement of the speaker position and the speaker position is all forward, breaking the current industry example of the bass speaker vibrating backwards through the wall, and raising the level of TV audio configuration. It also avoids the embarrassing appearance design of ordinary TV under thick and thin.

  Secondly, the TV sound quality level is full in the audio and picture configuration. Through 2 super audio 31 sound units, 9 cabinets are formed to complete the 50-60Hz bass band that is currently missing in high-end TVs, and refresh the 122w super power speaker. Bring the best 5.2.2 sky sound in the TV industry, and inject soul into the picture. Finally, through the independent audio perception processing chip, the independent switch gain control of each channel, intelligently optimize the adjustment of YPAO
V2.0 three-dimensional sound field, obtaining richer sound field effects, presenting users with immersive high-level surging sound.

    More artistic living space, more technological wisdom family

  In the trend of integrated home space, TVs must have both functional attributes and artistic taste. Casarte TV believes that sound quality is the soul of the picture, and aesthetics is the core of the living room to create a more artistic appearance. In terms of design, the thickness of the mural TV is only 49mm, and the design as thin as a mural can be perfectly integrated into the home environment; on the built-in, through the Residence Art Museum APP, there are a large number of built-in artworks for consumers to choose from. You can choose Monet’s world of light and shadow or Picasso’s abstract paintings to add a touch of color to the beauty of the home, so that it is a TV when turned on and a work of art when standby.

  While Chat GPT opens up more imagination space for artificial intelligence, Casarte TV also opens up imagination space for home wisdom scenes. It is not only a member of the smart living room scene, but also the entrance and brain of the smart home. It can be connected with
More than 9,000 smart home appliances are interconnected, enabling one-screen connectivity for the whole family. They can also be connected to the whole house scene, providing whole-house air, whole-house water, smart living room, and smart kitchen solutions, allowing users to experience the beautiful life of the digital intelligence era.

  For example, when you sit on the sofa and start watching a movie, the TV will automatically resume the content you didn’t watch last time. Users don’t have to get up to control the water heater by voice, and start preparing water according to the temperature you are used to. The heating progress can also be monitored in real time by Casarte TV, and the operation status of the whole house appliances is under control.

  The original intention of choosing TV is to enjoy the audio-visual experience of audio-visual integration at home. The need for upgrading sound quality technology should also be the focus of brand attack. Among many brands, Casarte TV has not only solved the problem of sound quality with its own technological advantages, but also created a mural TV with artistic and technological sense for users, leading the innovation direction of the industry, and also expanding new growth space for high-end TV.

Big news! Evergrande will resume trading tomorrow!

Hengda listed companies that have attracted much attention have the latest developments.

On the evening of October 2, China Evergrande and Evergrande Properties, which were temporarily suspended for two trading days, announced that they would resume trading at 9 am on October 3.

China Evergrande said it had released news on the evening of September 28 that Xu Jiayin, chairperson of the company’s board of directors, had been taken coercive measures on suspicion of illegal crimes. The company’s board believes that there is no other inside information to be released at present, after the company briefly suspended trading on the morning of September 28.Now I am applying to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to resume trading in the company’s shares at 9 am on October 3.

China Evergrande and Hengda Properties will resume trading

The impact of coercive measures on the stock price of a company’s board chairperson will be known tomorrow.

On the evening of October 2, China Evergrande announced in the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that the company issued an inside information announcement on September 28, 2023. The company received a notice from the relevant departments that Xu Jiayin, the executive director and chairperson of the board of directors of the company, has been subject to compulsory measures according to law due to suspected illegal crimes. The board of directors believes that there is no other inside information of the company that needs to be announced at present. The shares of the company will be suspended from trading on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange from 9:00 am on September 28, 2023. The company has applied to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to resume trading in the company’s shares from 9:00 am on October 3, 2023.

It is worth noting that Evergrande, which is in the process of leading the war to increase its capital, has not issued a similar resumption announcement.

02

It was briefly suspended due to the arrest of Xu Jiayin

Looking back, because Hengda founder Xu Jiayin was forced to take measures, Hengda’s three companies resumed trading after more than ten months of suspension, and were briefly suspended. On the morning of September 28, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange announced that China Hengda, Hengda Property and Hengda Automobile had disclosed announcements and temporarily stopped trading at 9 am that day.

According to public information, "short-term suspension" refers to the interruption of the issuer’s securities trading for no more than two trading days as required or instructed, and the short-term suspension of trading for more than two trading days automatically becomes a suspension.

It is worth mentioning that it did not take long for the three "Evergrande" companies to resume trading. On July 28, Evergrande Automobile became the first "Evergrande" listed company to resume trading; on August 3, Evergrande Property resumed trading; on August 28, China Evergrande, which has been suspended for 17 months since March 21, 2022, resumed trading "on the spot" to remove the risk of being delisted and delisted.

Therefore, in terms of time, if the Hong Kong Stock Exchange opens on October 3, China Evergrande’s failure to resume trading will become a long-term suspension.

As of the close of the day, China Evergrande fell 18.99% to HK $0.32/share, with a total market value of 4.225 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Evergrande Property fell 14.49% to HK $0.59/share, with a total market value of HK $6.378 billion.

 

On the evening of September 28, the reasons for the temporary suspension of three Hengda companies were revealed: China Hengda received a notice from the relevant departments that Xu Jiayin, the executive director and chairperson of the board of directors of the company, had been taken compulsory measures according to law for suspected illegal crimes.

Before this, China Hengda also had a bad news, its update overseas workout news said that in view of the subsidiary Hengda Real Estate is being investigated, China Hengda is currently unable to meet the issuance qualification of new notes.

On October 3, China Evergrande and Hengda Property resumed trading, which may be one of the focuses of the market.

315 Follow-up | The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology investigated and dealt with the illegal collection of users’ personal information by the cracked version of APP exposed at the "3 15

According to the official news of Gongxin Weibo, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology attaches great importance to the protection of users’ rights and interests, and continues to carry out special rectification actions for mobile Internet applications (APPs) infringing on users’ rights and interests, and constantly improve the application service environment of APPs. In view of the illegal collection of users’ personal information by some cracked apps reported at the "March 15" party, we immediately organized verification, and severely investigated and dealt with it according to the Personal Information Protection Law, the Regulations on the Protection of Personal Information of Telecommunications and Internet Users and other relevant laws and regulations.

First, organize the application distribution platform, e-commerce platform and search platform to quickly investigate the exposed apps such as "bilibili Cracked Edition 2021", "Baidu Netdisk Cracked Edition" and "Cool Dog Cracked Edition" and other cracked versions. Up to now, a total of 436 illegal download links from informal channels have been handled. The second is to organize relevant communication administrations to investigate relevant clues and deal with illegal subjects according to law. The third is to draw inferences from others, organize professional testing institutions to carry out special testing on APP and software development kit (SDK), resolutely investigate and deal with the problems found, and inform the public in time.

In the next step, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will continue to take effective measures to further build a security line and effectively strengthen the protection of personal information of telecommunications and Internet users. First, supervise the relevant Internet platform enterprises to implement the main responsibility, intensify inspection and investigation, and timely discover and clean up illegal apps. The second is to strengthen the detection, supervision and inspection of APP and SDK technologies, increase the handling and exposure of problems, and continue to maintain high-pressure shock to violations of laws and regulations. The third is to deepen the upstream and downstream chain governance of application services such as APP and SDK, strengthen management and standardization, and create a good service environment. The fourth is to cooperate with relevant departments to intensify the crackdown on illegal acts such as infringement and piracy of cracked APP, guide the downloading of APP from formal channels, and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of users.

Last night, the 315 party reported that many consumers were greedy for cheap, and they used these cracked apps for free, just like installing "monitoring" on their mobile phones and burying "mines", which was extremely risky. A cracked version of a video App, testers found that it was additionally embedded with three third-party plug-ins unrelated to the official version, namely SDK software package. As long as it runs, these three extra SDK packages can quietly steal personal information from the user’s mobile phone, from the hardware address of the internet to the identification number of the mobile phone device, to the identification number of the calling card, and even the identification number of the mobile phone operating system, all the key identification information of the user is wiped out.

As long as we master 2-3 kinds of information, even if the user changes his mobile phone or phone number, it can accurately lock the user, capture and track the user’s dynamics in real time, and form an accurate portrait of the user, thus pushing a large number of advertisements and realizing traffic realization. What’s more, a cracked music App can also monitor the user’s call status.

He Yanzhe, deputy director of the evaluation laboratory of Netan Center of China Institute of Electronic Technology Standardization, said that from the test results, we can see that he will send the user’s call status and the user’s logo, including his accurate portrait, even overseas, which may become an important data source for overseas telecom fraud groups to conduct accurate fraud. Once these data flow into the black market, it may be used repeatedly.

138,700 on sale! Geely Galaxy L7 listed, hybrid market volume intensified

The daily economic news reports that the mixed market has welcomed another challenger.

On May 31, Geely Galaxy L7 was officially launched. The new car launched a total of 5 models. The official guide price was 138,700~ 173,700 yuan, which was lower than market expectations. And many netizens also called "Zhenxiang" "Hybrid car price has been shot down" "Independent real cow" and so on.

In fact, the "price war" launched by the car market this year has spread to the new car market, which can be seen from the hybrid ace products of the independent Three Musketeers. On May 15, Haval Xiaolong MAX was officially launched, with a total of 3 models, priced at 159,800~ 179,800 yuan; on May 25, BYD’s new Song Pro DM-i Champion Edition was officially launched, and the new car released a total of 4 models, continuing the tradition of "the same price of oil and electricity" and guiding the price 135,800~ 159,800 yuan.

From the above data, it can be seen that Geely Galaxy L7, Haval Xiaolong MAX and BYD Song Pro DM-i Champion Edition have a high degree of overlap in the price range of these two models, which will form a frontal competition.

"The recent listing of autonomous hybrid products is not priced high, which is conducive to full competition in the new energy vehicle market. It can also enhance product competitiveness and achieve replacement for oil vehicles. At the same time, it will further reduce the general price of hybrid models." Cui Dongshu, secretary-general of the National Passenger Car Market Information Association, said in an interview with the Daily Economic News reporter.

In fact, the above-mentioned models are not just about price, but also compete in various aspects such as new car performance configuration, intelligent technology, and user service.

As the first model of the Galaxy product series, Geely Galaxy L7 is equipped with a "new generation Raytheon Hybrid 8848" power system, with a thermal efficiency of 44.26%, a fuel consumption of 5.23L (NEDC 4.4L) for 100 kilometers of power loss, and a comprehensive cruising range of 1370km under CLTC conditions. In addition, the new car is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip as standard, and the Keyword Spotting speed is only 0.5 seconds. It supports full scene visibility, four-tone zone recognition, and deep continuous dialogue.

It is worth noting that the battery safety is also regarded as a brand life infra by Geely Galaxy. It is understood that Geely Galaxy L7 is equipped with the "Aegis battery safety system" for the first time. Not long ago, the new car completed the vehicle-level safety test at the China Automotive Research and Automotive Safety Technology Center, and passed the vehicle speed 40km/h forward scraping, the vehicle speed 7km/h rear scraping, the vehicle 20km/h negative impact and the vehicle bottom support four vehicle-level battery safety tests.

The Haval Xiaolong MAX, which was listed first, was also highly expected by Great Wall Motors. It is reported that the Haval Xiaolong MAX is the first model equipped with the Great Wall’s new hybrid architecture Hi4 intelligent electric hybrid four-wheel drive system, carrying the important mission of the Haval brand’s transformation to new energy.

It is worth noting that in the field of new energy vehicles, both Geely Galaxy and Great Wall Haval are trying to catch up with BYD in front. Data show that BYD’s cumulative sales in 2022 exceeded 1.86 million new cars, an increase of more than 150% year-on-year. In the first quarter of this year, BYD’s cumulative sales exceeded 552,000 vehicles, an increase of 92.81% year-on-year, and its share in the domestic new energy vehicle market increased by 13 percentage points.

It is worth mentioning that BYD has taken the lead in the hybrid market. The cumulative sales of hybrid models last year were 946,000, an increase of 246.7% year-on-year. Among them, the Song PLUS DM-i won the championship of the SUV model sales list in 2022 with more than 380,000 sales. The BYD Song PLUS DM-i is already a model released two years ago, and is expected to be released in the middle of this year. Industry experts speculate that the mid-term change will also be like the series of championship models launched by BYD Dynasty Network this year, with multi-faceted upgrades in configuration, but the price will be reduced.

In the context of the launch of a number of new cars, the hybrid market also shows great growth potential. According to the data of the Passenger Federation, from January to April this year, the retail sales of plug-in hybrid models increased by 92.1% year-on-year, and the retail sales of pure electric models increased by 19.9% year-on-year. It is argued that in addition to BYD, Geely and Great Wall, more brands will join the "hybrid war", and this market segment will also be more "involution".

Didi price adjustment day-one experience: a small increase in the morning peak, a slight decrease in the peak period

  July 11 was the first day that Didi’s ride-hailing prices rose during peak hours in some areas of Beijing. The reporter conducted an experience in three routes and found that there was no "crowded" call from the city center during the evening rush hour. Even if there was no carpooling, the waiting number was only 5 to 6 people. However, the reporter found that because Didi did not actively prompt the price adjustment on the homepage of the App, many passengers did not notice the price increase during peak hours.

  experience

  After get off work, the driver will take the order after a short wait.

  During the peak period yesterday night, the reporters were divided into three routes and experienced the ride-hailing situation on the first day of the price increase, but they did not find the situation of "crowded people".

  At 5 pm, the first reporter called Didi Express from Dongdan to Shuangjing Carrefour. Without carpooling, the system showed that there were 5 people in line in front. If you choose carpooling, you don’t need to queue up. At 5:11, the reporter got on the bus smoothly, 4.7 kilometers away, and the final price was 27.85 yuan.

  Also at 5:00 pm, the second reporter called Didi Express from Dongdan to Shichahai, Xicheng District. The reporter first used the "Didi Chuxing Mini Program" in WeChat to call the express car, and waited for 6.5 minutes, but no driver answered. Then, the reporter opened the mobile phone app, and the waiting situation was not serious. If you don’t carpool, there are 6 people in line in front of you, and if you carpool, you only need to queue up 1 person. Finally, the reporter arrived in Shichahai from Dongdan under the condition of carpooling, a distance of 4.9 kilometers, and the total cost after carpooling was 32.44 yuan.

  At 6:20 pm, the third reporter called Didi Express from Guang’anmen Bridge to Panjiayuan in the East Third Ring Road. After only 2 minutes, a driver took the order. According to the estimated price given by the system, the total mileage of this trip is 13.7 kilometers, and the total cost is 46.05 yuan, of which the starting price is 14 yuan, the mileage fee is 16.05 yuan, and the duration fee is 16 yuan.

  settle accounts

  Morning and evening peak fares rose slightly

  According to the price adjustment instructions previously released by Didi, starting from July 11, Didi will divide Beijing into five regions, each of which adopts different billing standards.

  Taking Didi Express in the six districts of the city as an example, after the adjustment, the starting price will increase from 13 yuan to 14 yuan during the morning peak period from 6:00 am to 10:00 am on weekdays, and the mileage fee will increase from 1.6 yuan/kilometer to 1.8 yuan/kilometer. The duration fee will remain unchanged at 0.8 yuan/minute; during the peak period from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, the starting price will remain unchanged at 13 yuan, the mileage fee will decrease from 1.6 yuan/kilometer to 1.45 yuan/kilometer, and the duration fee will decrease from 0.5 yuan/minute to 0.4 yuan/minute; during the evening peak period from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm, the starting price will increase from 13 yuan to 14 yuan, and the mileage fee will decrease from 1.6 yuan/kilometer to 1.5 yuan/kilometer. The duration fee will remain unchanged at 0.8 yuan/minute; at 9:00 pm During the night hours at 6 a.m. the next day, the starting price will increase from 13 yuan to 14 yuan, the mileage fee will increase from 1.6 yuan/kilometer to 2.15 yuan/kilometer, and the duration fee will decrease from 1 yuan/minute to 0.8 yuan/minute.

  With a 10-kilometer mileage and a duration of 20 minutes, if you call Didi Express at 7 am without carpooling, the total cost will change from 32.2 yuan to 34.6 yuan, an increase of about 7.5%; if you call Didi Express at 12 noon, the total cost will change from 29.2 yuan to 27.15 yuan, a decrease of about 7%; if you call Didi Express at 5 pm, the total cost will change from 32.2 yuan to 32.5 yuan, which is almost unchanged; if you call Didi Express at 10 pm, the total cost will change from 34.2 yuan to 37.05 yuan, an increase of about 8.3%. Overall, after the price adjustment, the price of Didi Express will increase slightly during the morning peak and night hours, and the price will decrease slightly during the peak hours.

  passenger

  If you can accept a short-distance increase of three or five yuan.

  Internet users talked a lot about Didi’s price hikes during peak hours, with some accusing Didi of being "unkind," some calling out their emotional collapse, and some saying they would switch to public transportation. However, in on-site interviews, reporters found that the reaction of passengers was mostly calm and rational.

  Mr. Tai, a passenger who shares a ride with reporters, expressed understanding of the price increase. Mr. Tai told reporters that he calls Didi more than 40 times a month on average, and is a customer of Didi’s platform to prioritize orders. The commuting cost is about 1,000 yuan. "The taxi fee accounts for about 1/10 of my monthly income, so as long as the increase is within 10%, I can accept it."

  Miss Qi, a passenger who chooses to carpool on the Didi Express, said that she did not notice any price increase prompts on the mobile app when she called for a ride after get off work, and only noticed the price increase after listening to the reporter. "If it’s a short journey, you can just pay three or five yuan more. If it’s a long journey, then go take the subway." Miss Qi said with a smile. The reporter immediately opened the app and found that the price adjustment notice was not actively pushed to passengers in the first place.

  Although the price has gone up, it is still not easy to call a car during the hot hours in hot areas. At 10:30 last night, the reporter tried to locate the call to Didi Express in the Sanlitun area in the mobile app. The system showed "127 people in line, expected to wait 46 minutes."

  driver

  The price increase has no impact on passenger traffic

  There is no special reminder of the price adjustment on the Didi driver’s app page, but the charging page is a little different. "No one mentioned this today, and many passengers didn’t know about it." Master Bai, a full-time Didi driver, said that the first day after the price adjustment did not have much impact on his work, and it was still an ordinary day. After he left the house at 6am, he was busy sending orders to pick up passengers according to the platform. During peak periods, there were still many people waiting in line. "The platform also told drivers a few days ago that they don’t need to pay attention to price changes."

  Master Shu, a Didi driver who belongs to the "night owl" type, has no actual experience of the first morning peak after the price increase because he leaves the car at 3 pm and picks it up at 4 am every day, but he is optimistic about this matter, "The increase is not big, I feel that the number of customers will not decrease, so our driver’s income will increase a little, which is a good thing."
