An IPhone +QQ music player+digital audio standing wave processor+world cable box, with a simple and unexpected combination scheme, won the attention of countless media, industry insiders and experienced fans at the 2017 Shanghai International HI-FI Audio Exhibition (SIAV), and stood out from the noisy exhibition with its shocking playing conclusion.
Genesis (Singapore) Technology Co., Ltd. and Xuran Group, following the discovery trip in Hai Yin, Guangzhou on April 16th, once again took advantage of the Shanghai International HIFI Exhibition to release the new digital recording and broadcasting method of "Discovery, New Sound Machine"-"Digital Audio Solution". Under the witness of more than 60 media, nearly 3,000 people in the industry and experienced friends, Xuran Group demonstrated to the media and the public how digital audio solutions can solve the pain points in the audio industry from the root and promote a great leap in sound quality.
Only IPhone +QQ music player +KEF speaker, such a simple digital audio playback scheme, after loading the digital audio solution, that is, the world cable box and digital audio standing wave processor, the sound quality can reach HI-END level. At the event site, we showed: IPhone +QQ music player +KEF speaker, and the comparison between the loading and unloading of the world cable box and the digital audio standing wave processor. The participants at the scene were deeply shocked by the conclusion of playing QQ music after loading the digital audio solution. Some people in the industry even felt that this would rewrite the history of the audio industry and was definitely a subversive innovation. The veteran enthusiasts at the scene even bluntly said that they "don’t have to buy any vinyl or CDs anymore", and even felt that their playing conclusion far exceeded the effect of CD playing, and they were willing to pay for such a conclusion. There is no doubt that the digital audio solution can greatly improve the sound quality of QQ music playback because of the empirical comparison on the spot and the reaction of the participants.
Does this mean that the emergence of digital audio solutions will activate the new commercial profit model of streaming media operation?
On-the-spot analysts pointed out that QQ music keeps up with the trend of the mobile digital era. It has invested heavily in software development and copyright purchase, but it has been in a downturn in the paid music market, mainly due to the bottleneck of the hardware of digital audio playback carrier in audio technology. The release of digital audio solution has solved this problem. The actual playing conclusion on the spot has confirmed that after the technical solution is loaded on Apple mobile phone, the playing conclusion of QQ music makes senior fans and insiders willing to pay for it.
Xuran Group is committed to the technical application and promotion of "Digital Audio Solution" in all fields of audio. This conference has invested more than 30 million application products to provide free experience, hoping to jointly explore and extend the commercial practice mode of this technology in the audio field through the experiences and ideas of relevant people in various fields. At the same time, a dedicated team tracks the experience feedback and provides an open platform and technical guidance scheme. In view of the mobile digital products such as mobile phones with the greatest consumption demand at present, the corresponding experience scheme of digital products is opened.
In addition, on May 20th, Xuran Group will hold an extended application release of "Digital Audio Solution" with the theme of "Opening the Gate of Digital Audio and Establishing a New Digital Audio Standard" in Rongchao Yinglong Building, Longgang District, Shenzhen, and we will continue to pay attention to it.

On 25th, "Chopsticks Brothers" responded to lip-synching at the National Music Festival: After going to America, they were under great pressure and didn’t sleep well. The safest thing to do was to ring.
Chopsticks brothers said, "Little Apple itself is a song that is sung while dancing. It is difficult to sing well under such a large amount of dance, and it will be out of breath. We are not full-time singers, and the version of Little Apple performed in AMA this time has greatly changed from our previous version. It was three minutes and thirty-one seconds before, and this time it was two and a half minutes, so I rearranged the choreography. This time, LADY GAGA’s choreographer was also very powerful, adding a lot of new moves to us. We had to work hard just to remember the dance steps, and we had to step off the stage to interact with each other. There were many positions on the stage. For those of us who didn’t have dance skills, after just two rehearsals, we were all at a loss and under great pressure. We didn’t fall asleep these days in the United States. The safest way to perform on such a big stage is to ring, and finally we chose this way. "

" Yu Donglai said that only when everyone is constantly optimizing and moving towards goodness, there will be no competition for involution. "In the past, it was to make money and make profits. Now it is to be better than anyone, so that we can move from a competitive mentality to a friend relationship." Yu Donglai said.

BMW’s best-selling luxury car, the 5 Series, has finally been replaced, and this time BMW rarely chose to launch both oil and electricity at the same time.
On November 17th, BMW’s eighth generation BMW 5 Series was officially unveiled at Guangzhou Auto Show, including the world’s first BMW 5 Series long wheelbase version and pure electric model i5.
The 5 Series is one of the few luxury cars in the global market with a production capacity of more than 10 million vehicles, and has long held the top position in the luxury car market in China.
Since entering the China market, the sales volume of the 5 Series has exceeded 2 million, and the seventh-generation 5 Series has sold 530,000 vehicles in the past three years.
Gao Xiang, President and CEO of BMW Group Greater China, praised the BMW 5 Series as "the most successful model of BMW Group in China" in Chinese at the Guangzhou Auto Show.
Leifeng. com’s "New Smart Drive" understands that BMW attaches great importance to the release of the new 5 Series this time, because it is not only related to BMW’s re-declaration of its market position in domestic medium and large luxury cars, but also the key battle for BMW to define pure electric luxury cars.
How do traditional luxury brands, led by BMW, choose between "replacement" products?
Family-style design is not a simple doll, but a "fine decoration" on the premise of retaining recognizable elements.
On the eighth generation BMW 5 Series, you can see BMW’s most recognizable kidney grille, angel eye headlights and Hough’s corner.
However, the kidney grille on the front face of BMW’s new 5 Series is wider and almost vertical than the previous generation, and the design of angel eye headlights is also simpler. At the corner of Huo’s corner, BMW also designed a bright logo with the number "5", which will also produce a blue breathing effect when charging the pure electric model i5.
In terms of body size, the eighth generation BMW 5 Series is divided into standard wheelbase version and long wheelbase version. Among them, the long-wheelbase version has a car length of 5175mm and a wheelbase of 3105mm, which is the ceiling of similar models.
In terms of interior, BMW has delegated many configurations unique to the flagship 7 Series to the 5 Series, such as the embracing interactive light strip in the car, the two-row suspended giant screen and the crystal-textured components.
When domestic car companies roll refrigerators, color TVs and big sofas, the domestic long-wheelbase version of the new 5 Series directly upgraded the "color TV" to a "cinema", equipped with a 31-inch, 8K resolution floating giant screen of the same model as the 7 Series.
It is worth mentioning that this configuration of suspended giant screen was specially customized by BMW for users in China, and it was not installed on the overseas version of the 5 Series.
In terms of intelligence, BBA was often complained by consumers that its ability was far less than that of domestic independent brands. However, this time BMW officially got on the L2+ intelligent driver assistance system on the new 5 Series, and introduced an automatic lane change function with line-of-sight confirmation.
This function is based on capturing the driver’s eyes and head movements. When the lane change conditions are met, the driver only needs to look at the left/right rearview mirror to realize the lane change in the corresponding direction.
Of course, there are restrictions on driving range and speed, and the restrictions must be met on high-speed and closed roads, and the driving speed is 60 km/h and 180 km/h.
BMW team members told Leifeng. com’s "New Smart Driving" that the styles of intelligent assisted driving systems of different car companies may be different, some emphasizing convenience and some emphasizing safety. In contrast, BMW’s style is really conservative, because in their eyes, "safety" has a higher priority.
It is reported that BMW China’s R&D team is carrying out localization research and development of L3-class autonomous driving, and the new 5-Series long wheelbase version actually has L3 capability in technology.
In addition to the improvement in appearance, interior and intelligence, the biggest highlight of this generation of 5 Series is the introduction of both fuel and pure electric vehicles in the China market.
The fuel version of BMW 5 Series is equipped with an in-line four-cylinder turbocharged engine and adopts 48V light mixing technology, with a maximum power of 190 kW and a peak torque of 400 Nm, which makes this model have a stronger and more efficient power output.
Pure electric vehicle-BMW i5 adopts the fifth-generation BMW eDrive electric drive technology and BMW’s latest charging technology, and its long wheelbase version has a cruising range of more than 700 kilometers.
In terms of handling experience, speeding up faster than fuel vehicles has always been one of the skills of electric vehicles.
In order to enable drivers to have the driving experience of a sports car while driving a medium and large car, BMW introduced the M model (the highest-end performance model in BMW) into the pure electric i5 for the first time. Press the Sport Boost button and step on the accelerator, and the output torque of the dual motors can reach 820 Nm, achieving zero acceleration in 3.8 seconds.
Although this model is not the best in the industry, it is the first among the products sold by BMW.
Abandoning fuel vehicles and all in pure electricity is not only a matter of cutting off the left hand or the right hand, whether for high-end brands like BMW and Mercedes-Benz or for global brands like Volkswagen and Toyota.
Most car companies choose both fuel and pure electric vehicles, trying to use this product matrix to smoothly transition from the fuel era to the pure electric era.
Of the BBA three, BMW was the first to choose "self-revolution" and made a military order. In 2021, BMW set a more detailed goal of turning to the pure electric market:
In 2023, 12 pure electric vehicles will be provided in 90% market segments.
It is estimated that by 2025, the annual sales of pure electric vehicles of the Group will be more than 10 times that of 2020.
It is estimated that the delivery of the world’s 2 millionth pure electric vehicle will be completed by the end of 2025.
At the earnings conference call in 2022, Qi Puce, chairman of BMW Group, once again stressed that in 2023, it will go all out to electrify, with the goal of increasing the sales of pure electric vehicles to 15% of the total sales of the Group.
How about BMW’s electric progress bar in China market?
In November, 2022, BMW launched five pure electric vehicles in China: innovative BMW i7, brand-new BMW i3, BMW i4, BMW iX and BMW iX3.
Let’s look at the sales data of a group of BMW pure electric vehicles in China market in 2022: the sales volume of pure electric vehicles in 2022 was 41,886, up 91.6% year-on-year. In the global market, the total sales volume of BMW in 2022 was about 2,399,900 units, of which the sales volume of pure electric vehicles reached about 215,700 units, up by 107.7% year-on-year.
In other words, the China market contributed about 20% of pure electricity sales.
Take BMW’s best-selling entry-level model 3 Series as an example. From January to September, 2023, the domestic sales volume of fuel-powered BMW 3 Series reached 110,258, while that of pure electric BMW i3 reached 35,693. The total sales volume of the two models was 145,951, with i3 accounting for about 24%.
With the success of the i3, it is not difficult to understand BMW’s ambition to make the i5 a benchmark model for all-electric luxury cars in the world.
A person close to BMW said that BMW regards the 3 Series, 7 Series and 5 Series as the main models in China market.
At least in the China market, the 5 Series has occupied the top spot of luxury cars with a price of 400,000-500,000 for a long time.
According to the data of the Association, in 2022, with the annual sales volume of 171,142, BMW 5 Series became the first in the domestic sales list of high-end cars with a price of over 300,000 yuan, and also the first in the domestic market segment of medium and large luxury cars with a price of over 300,000 yuan.
In the fuel vehicle market, the direct competitors of BMW’s new 5 Series are Audi A6 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. In the pure electric vehicle market, only the ET7 of Weilai can be compared with BMW’s new 5 Series.
Before BMW i5 entered the market, ET7 could be said to monopolize the market of more than 400,000 domestic medium and large electric cars.
The price of Weilai ET7 is 458-536,000 yuan. It comes standard with front and rear double motors, with a maximum total power of 653 horsepower and a maximum torque of 850 Nm. The fastest speed increase of zero hundred is only 3.8 seconds. In terms of intelligent hardware, ET7 adopts Qualcomm 8155 chip, and in terms of intelligent driving, it adopts four NVIDIA Orin X chips, finally reaching 1024TOPS.
At present, BMW has not announced the price range of the i5, and it will not have an official price until the model is officially launched in January 2024.
Therefore, at this stage, it is difficult to compare BMW i5 and Weilai ET7 who are more cost-effective, and who is the one who defines the pure electric luxury car.
From the details such as the new 5 Series with long wheelbase, the Chinese character "Five" designed on the front seat and the suspended giant screen specially introduced by BMW for China users, it can be seen that BMW has really made some efforts to compete for the pure tram market segment in China.
Not only that, BMW has also accelerated the laying of charging infrastructure like its own domestic brands.
In August 2023, BMW officially launched the super charging station project. High-power charging piles can support up to 600 kilowatts of charging power, and the network of super charging stations is open to all brands of electric vehicles. Within three months, the network of super charging stations will cover nine major cities including Guangzhou, and it is estimated that about 50 stations will be completed by the end of 2023.
By the end of October 2023, BMW had connected more than 580,000 public charging piles (including 320,000 DC charging piles) across the country, covering more than 320 cities.
Now everything is ready for BMW i5, except for its official listing.

BEIJING, Jan. 6 (Xinhua)-At 9: 00 am local time on the 6th, US President Biden delivered a speech on Capitol Hill in Washington. He called the riots on Capitol Hill a year ago "an armed rebellion" and called former President Trump trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power.
According to reports, Biden first reviewed the scene of the riots a year ago, and then pointed his words at Trump, saying that Trump created a "web of lies" to "pursue power over principle."
Biden said, "This is the first time in the history of our country that a president not only lost the election, but also tried to prevent the peaceful transfer of power, and a mob rushed into the Capitol."
Biden further accused Trump, saying that "a former president who just called a mob to launch an attack sat in a private dining room outside the Oval Office of the White House, watched it all on TV and did nothing for hours."
Biden also said, "But they failed. On this anniversary, we must make it clear that attacks like this must never happen again."
On January 6, 2021, some demonstrators who supported the then US President Trump to overthrow the results of the 2020 presidential election forcibly broke into the US Capitol for several hours, causing the joint meeting of the Senate and the House of Representatives to be interrupted. The incident killed five people, including a congressional policeman, and injured about 140 law enforcement officers.
