Hengda Automobile’s desperate attempt was actually Hengchi 5 satellite-based blind determination

Recently, Hengda car first model Hengchi 5 during the May Day holiday quietly open blind subscription rumors caused heated discussion in Weibo, the focus of the discussion is not Hengda car finally fast mass production, but Hengchi 5 10 hours blind order reached 50,000.

These doubts are not without reason, to know that the tank 300 phenomenon-level model blind order broke 20 days, the heat of the Han DM-i 10 hours blind order number is only 12,000 units. And Hengchi 5 in the brand, positioning, design, product strength and other aspects do not have the potential of explosion, 10 hours order breaking 50,000 results is obviously unreasonable, and Hengda official has not yet responded to this rumor.

This is not the first time that netizens have questioned Hengda’s car manufacturing. In the early days, Hengda entered the car manufacturing industry with the rudeness of spending a lot of money and the arrogance of "the world’s first", and was labeled "barbarian car" by netizens. Now, the objective laws of car manufacturing have taught Hengda a good lesson, and the first model has fallen into a difficult situation. In the opinion of Liu Bing, an internal manager of Hengda, the current dilemma of Hengda Automobile is not only the delay in mass production, but the hidden dangers have emerged from the moment Hengda stepped into car manufacturing.

What’s worse is that after the full implementation of the three national red lines, Hengda Group’s core real estate sector suffered a devastating blow due to its high debt ratio. At present, only the car business running on the new track can save Hengda Group. The bumpy Hengchi 5 has become Evergrande Group’s last resort. Can it shoulder this heavy responsibility?

Savage money

"It is said that Evergrande is a barbarian car, which is very apt to describe. Real estate companies make cars, and they don’t respect this industry at all," Liu Bing said. Compared with the self-made Wei Xiaoli, Evergrande, which builds cars from real estate, can be said to be born with a golden key, and the most worry is money. However, in Liu Bing’s view, Evergrande’s money is spent on the back of the knife.

Evergrande’s interest in car manufacturing can be traced back to June 25, 2018. Evergrande acquired 100% of Hong Kong Shiying Company for HK $6.747 billion, thus obtaining 45% of the shares of Smart King Company and becoming the largest shareholder of FF. But the two sides soon tore their faces, so Evergrande decided to go down in person.

In January 2019, Evergrande Health acquired a 51% stake in NEVS National Automobile through the acquisition of MiniMinor Limited. In the following five months, Evergrande continued to increase its shareholding ratio in National Energy until it was fully owned. However, National Energy only has some uncompetitive technologies in its hands, and the most valuable is only the production qualification. "There are many problems with the National Energy 93, the quality is not good, and the cost is high. In the end, I decided not to sell it."

Perhaps it was these two failures that made Evergrande realize that car building is not so simple, and then Evergrande began to build its own car building system including supply chain, factories, personnel, etc. The New Energy Vehicle Strategic Partner Summit held by Evergrande on November 12, 2019, and the official announcement of 6 pure electric new cars a year later, made Evergrande famous. Xu Jiayin put forward the "three must" of car building at the summit: first, the core technology must be world-leading, second, the product quality must be world-class, and third, the cost must be greatly reduced, which is still spreading in the car circle.

Xu Jiayin set the goal: "Ten production bases, each base plans to have a production capacity of 500,000 vehicles, the first phase is 100,000 vehicles, and the production scale is planned to exceed 1 million vehicles within 2-3 years, and the annual production scale will exceed 5 million vehicles within 10 to 15 years." The cumulative sales volume of China’s new energy vehicles in 2019 is 1.20 million units, which means that Evergrande’s first production capacity will almost cover the entire Chinese new energy vehicle market.

Matching this ambitious goal is another equally incredible "spending plan". At the same summit, Xu Jiayin went on to say that Evergrande’s three-year investment budget in new energy vehicles is 45 billion yuan, of which 20 billion will be invested this year, 15 billion will be invested next year, and 10 billion will be invested the year after. How exaggerated is this figure? NIO, the "big money burner" among the new car-making forces, has only invested more than 10 billion yuan in a car.

In fact, Hengda Automobile spent money faster than originally planned last year. According to Hengda Automobile’s 2020 financial report, Hengda Automobile’s cumulative investment has reached 47.40 billion yuan, of which 24.90 billion yuan is used to purchase core technology and R & D investment, and another 22.50 billion yuan is used for the construction of the plant.

"The first batch of Hengchi cars (Hengchi 1-6/7) were designed by top foreign designers, and the follow-up development was done by overseas suppliers. What we need to do in China is to give them some parameters, length, style, height, wheelbase, and battery life. Hengchi 1 is an overseas design company that directly does design and engineering development." Sun Gaojie, an insider of Evergrande Automobile, revealed to the new technology of the new car.

In addition to outsourcing design to foreign suppliers, Evergrande has completed a series of acquisitions. On May 31, 2019, Evergrande Health acquired Protean, a manufacturer of electric vehicle wheel motors, through National Energy, and on July 26, Evergrande acquired battery supplier Canai for 178 million yuan.

Then there are the recruitment. On September 9, 2019, Evergrande New Energy Vehicles launched a global recruitment program, planning to recruit about 8,000 new energy vehicle industry practitioners in nine countries, including China, Sweden, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Austria. Another Evergrande insider, Zhang Ming, told Xinxin New Technology, "Evergrande Automobile Group had about 5,000 people at its peak, but in fact there were less than 8,000 people, but there were also many people, similar to NIO."

While recruiting employees and acquiring companies, Evergrande is also promoting the construction of its "ten production bases". In August 2020, the Shanghai Songjiang and Guangzhou Nansha bases started equipment installation and commissioning. A year later, in November, the two production bases began full-line trial production. With the Tianjin production base, a total of three bases have been completed.

For startups, for start-up car companies, money is indeed important, but it cannot solve all problems. Evergrande, which expanded rapidly, soon encountered problems.

The Tianjin production base was originally owned by Guoneng factory, which is the only one with production qualifications, but it is not favored by Evergrande. "The Tianjin factory Evergrande does not like it, and feels that the final assembly and welding assembly are not good together," Sun Gaojie said. Compared with Tianjin, Evergrande’s Shanghai and Guangzhou bases have invested much more, using more advanced factory equipment and technology, which is expensive, but so far, the Shanghai and Guangzhou bases have not been qualified for production.

Except for these three bases, none of the other bases that were originally planned were built. The battery base in Yangzhou was not built, and the motor base for in-wheel motors was not built. The remaining car base projects were abandoned because there was no funding.

At the Shanghai Auto Show in April last year, Hengda Automobile showed its car-making achievements to the outside world, showing a total of 9 cars, covering all levels of A-D class, as well as cars, coupes, SUVs, MPVs, crossovers and other full series of all models, which attracted much attention. There are relevant media reports titled "Hengda Power is stunning at the Shanghai Auto Show, Hengda car-making is underestimated".

The 9 cars on display at the auto show were actually selected by Xu Jiayin, and the original design was 14 cars. Why did Hengda, the first car builder, come up with 14 models? Zhang Ming revealed that Hengda’s goal was to sell 1 million cars within three years, and then went to investigate how many models needed to be developed to achieve this goal. Hengda investigated Toyota and learned that Toyota had 14-15 models when it completed the 1 million target, so Hengda also set the number of developed models at 14.

Among the nine cars on display during the Shanghai Auto Show, only the Hengchi 5 was a car that could see the chassis and drive. On the afternoon of the auto show, a number of automotive media tested the Hengchi 5 in front of Hengda’s Shanghai base. Except for the Hengchi 5, the others were all model cars, and the models that had been finalized by Xu Jiayin were different in the later stage of mass production.

"Some cars were found to be impossible to do from concept to engineering. For example, the rear row of the Hengchi 2 was designed to be very small, and the Hengchi MPV was proven to be impossible. Nine cars eventually became five cars." Zhang Ming told the new car technology.

Due to the shortage of funds of Hengda Automobile, these 5 cars have not been fully preserved. At present, the company is fully committed to maintaining Hengchi 5. Among the 9 models, the appearance of Hengchi 5 is relatively average and relatively low-end, but at this time, Hengchi 5 is the car closest to mass production.

In the model car stage, Hengda still had a sum of money to spend on building 36 brand display centers, all located in the core areas of core cities. Later, they closed their stores one after another, retaining only five.

It is worth mentioning that Zhang Ming revealed that because the Hengchi 1 was found to be a model car by the media, it cannot be placed in the exhibition hall, but the exhibition center is already under construction, and model car orders are also being placed. The sales of the Hengchi 1 with millions of units account for half of the annual model car orders in China. The door can be opened, the interior and even the power system are also available, but Hengda’s car can only be driven for about 20 yards and half an hour.

Two years spent 47.40 billion, Hengda has not yet built a real sense of the car.

From the beginning of "buy buy buy" to the later "provinces and provinces", no one can count how much trial and error costs Hengda has along the way. After the mountains and rivers were exhausted, ensuring the listing of Hengchi 5 became Hengda Automobile’s last gamble.

In a car company, it’s the Autobots who don’t count

"I can feel that the corporate strategy, brand strategy and product strategy are not played according to the rules." Wang Qingze, an internal employee who has been with Evergrande for more than a year, talked about his greatest feelings about the company.

At Evergrande, Wang Qingze is not the only employee who has doubts about the company’s strategy. Before coming to Evergrande, they had worked in other positions in the automotive industry and had a deep understanding of the industry. But after coming to this automotive start-up led by real estate company personnel, they often questioned the practices of their superiors.

They gradually discovered that in such a car company, the Autobots did not count.

In the middle and senior personnel structure of Evergrande Automobile, most of the core leaders are from real estate companies, and the middle management is mainly professional automakers. Take Evergrande Research Institute as an example, the dean and middle management are professional R & D personnel, and the leader in charge of Liu Yongzhuo is from real estate companies. Such a leadership structure undoubtedly breaks the balance that has the voice over the car company.

Real estate leaders bring a real estate-style car-making style. "Evergrande feels that it is the world’s top 500, and it feels that it is not short of money. It is not good at throttling, and it is not good at cost control," Sun Gaojie said. Except for Evergrande Automobile, no other auto company spends so much money. Strict cost control is the consensus of auto companies in order to capture more market share and improve corporate efficiency. It is also an important indicator to measure the internal operating efficiency of enterprises. On the fiercely competitive new energy track, other new car-making forces have not yet made profits, and cost control is still their main issue.

Xu Jiayin spoke at an internal meeting: "If you sell a car, if you lose 50,000, 1 million will lose 50 billion yuan, and you will lose a year’s profit at most." Behind the easy speech is the logic of the inherent high turnover model of real estate people.

High turnover is a business term commonly used in the real estate industry, referring to the circular process of funds from capital form to goods form, and then back to capital form. The less time it takes for a cycle, the higher the turnover efficiency. Country Garden’s "456 model: land acquisition opens in 4 months, capital withdrawal in 5 months, and capital turnover in 6 months is the logic behind high turnover. This model brings higher capital efficiency and profits, and can quickly start sales and collect money in a short period of time.

"Evergrande’s real estate executives have deeply enjoyed the" short-term and fast "dividends of the real estate economy. They are used to pursuing short-term results and do not give enough respect to the market, which often leads to a large gap between the development results and expectations." Industry insiders commented.

According to Hengda insiders, in Hengda Automobile to do things very efficiently, normally take 5 months to do things, the company will ask 2 months can be done, but also because the pursuit of speed ignore the process, no time to do due diligence, Hengda in the acquisition stage often make mistakes.

Evergrande’s development direction still depends on the upper-level leaders’ understanding of the car, because most of the leaders come from real estate and have done a lot of "layman" behavior. At the Shanghai Auto Show, Evergrande exposed all the styling effects of Hengchi cars, which is different from other car companies. Usually, new car exteriors are kept secret by sticking zebra patterns and camouflage to ensure that the mysterious structure of the new car body and the body design are not plagiarized, but Evergrande did not carefully consider this.

In the face of a series of anti-industry laws of Evergrande Automobile, the internal professional automakers expressed helplessness. Zhang Ming believes: "It is difficult for professional automakers to do in real estate companies. At first, they will mention it, but later they will not mention it. You can do whatever you say. There is a popular saying in the interior that Evergrande Automobile is running all the way on the wrong road and doing things that violate the basic rules. Only the bosses can’t be high all day long."

Evergrande car has the voice over the car, began to leave.

From June 2020, Hengda Automobile executives have left one after another. The former chairperson of Hengda Faraday Future Intelligent Automobile (China) Group, Peng Jianjun, resigned because of multiple failed acquisitions of parts companies, and was succeeded by Sean, chairperson of Hengda Tourism Group; Jiang Dalong, the founder and chairperson of the former National Electric Vehicle, left after one year in Hengda, and people familiar with the matter said that the reason for leaving was "because there is no decision-making power, leave to do your own thing"; Huang Xiangdong, the former president of GAC Research Institute, left after less than one year as the president of Hengda New Energy Vehicle Research Institute, and the reason for leaving was retirement. The theory is questionable, so Huang Xiangdong also retired from GAC Group in 2016 and joined Hengda Automobile two years later. The second retirement is speculative.

Under such a wave of departures, Dai Lei, founder of Byton, joined Evergrande as executive vice-president before the Shanghai Auto Show last year, but Zhang Ming said: "Dai Lei was very strange to recruit. He did not come to manage marketing, but to manage the product planning center. After he came, he did not play any role."

Perhaps as Evergrande’s internal staff said: "Hengda makes cars, just like a rich man. He wants to play with cars on a whim, but he is afraid of being deceived by others, so he uses real estate. It is also expected that people will stumble on this road."

The three lines did not stumble Evergrande, but they stumped countless employees

Hengda Automobile needs to rely on Hengda Real Estate’s funds to maintain normal operations, but after the full implementation of the country’s three red lines, this capital chain is facing a break. Perhaps Hengda never imagined that these three red lines would have such a big impact on it.

In August 2020, the People’s Bank of China and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development planned three red lines for real estate companies, specifically: 1. The asset-liability ratio after excluding advance receipts is greater than 70; 2. The net debt ratio is greater than 100%; 3. The cash-to-short-debt ratio is less than 1 times. These three red lines have been touched, and Evergrande Real Estate is therefore facing financing difficulties and a broken capital chain. It needs to introduce

Strategic investments, asset spin-offs, etc. to reduce debt levels.

Evergrande Group began to take a series of actions to reduce its debt ratio. In September 2020, Evergrande Motor raised about 4 billion Hong Kong dollars and announced that it would be listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange’s Science and Technology Innovation Board; at the end of 2020, Evergrande Group renamed its Hengfangtong RV Bao, and united 152 intermediaries across the country to restructure and establish RV Bao Group, entering the real estate intermediary market; In September 2021, China Evergrande announced that it had negotiated with strategic investors 130 billion RMB, among which 86.30 billion have realized debt-to-equity swaps, and Evergrande will "erase" hundreds of billions of debts through this operation. At the most difficult time, Hengda Auto has been disposing of overseas companies it has previously acquired in order to increase revenue and cut costs.

The difficulty is not only Hengda Automobile, but also the employees under Hengda are going through troughs with the company. According to public information, Hengda’s core management took the initiative to suspend salary collection, and the employees’ office buildings were moved to the factory, and they started their "side business" in Hengda Automobile.

"Evergrande does full-staff marketing several times a year. Every May Day and National Day, employees are asked to sell their houses," Sun Gaojie told Xinxin New Technology. In the car company, Hengda’s employees are very special.

"Side business" selling houses also has assessment goals. "Generally, the assessment goals are at the top of the department, and those who rank at the bottom will be fined. The employees at the bottom have no assessment pressure, but the leaders will put pressure on each employee, and the relatives around them have recommended it all." Sun Gaojie said.

Zhang Ming, who was also arranged to sell houses as a "sideline", said that after he joined Evergrande Automobile, he caught up with the longest full-staff marketing, which probably sold tens of millions of houses, with hundreds of units. The original R & D personnel had R & D tasks, so they were not arranged to participate in the sale of houses, but during the 11th period, the company also arranged certain tasks for R & D personnel to sell houses.

At that time, how many employees in Hengda Automobile were asked to sell houses? Li Sihang, an employee who worked at Hengda RV Treasure, shared his experience on the Internet that Hengda Group transferred about 30% of its employees from each department to RV Treasure, from the bottom to the top, including property security, engineering supervision, and employees working in the automotive, marketing, cinema, amusement park, property and other departments. The data shows that there are not a few employees who have started a "side business" in Hengda Automobile to sell houses.

However, Sun Gaojie believes that selling houses as a "side business" is accepted by most employees. Selling houses can earn commissions. At the same time, this can also be a means of increasing income and reducing expenses in the early stage of a new company.

Compared with Sun Gaojie’s more optimistic and positive attitude towards his employees’ "side business" of selling houses, another internal employee of Evergrande did not agree. In order to complete a house selling task, he bought a small apartment in a third-tier city in the south. After buying it, the house price was sideways for a long time, and the house was located in a remote location that was not suitable for living.

The financial problems caused by the country’s three redlinings did not stumble Evergrande, but stumped the employees who took up the "side business" of selling houses and cars.

In the second half of last year, the turnover rate of Hengda Automobile employees increased. Zhang Ming described in detail: "In August, the salary of the middle-level employees of Hengda Research Institute was delayed, and the labor income was reduced, delayed, and in arrears. The number of employees leaving Hengda Automobile has increased greatly compared with the previous few months. In my department, 5% -10% of people were lost in three months, and 20% of people were lost in one year. Concentrated in the lower level."

In the period from March to May last year, Hengda Motor was still hiring one after another, but in July and August, Hengda Auto employees were only in and out, and recruitment stopped. How can employees and business teams who have been centrifuged support Hengda Motor to fulfill his automotive dream?

Can Hengchi 5 save Evergrande?

Even in difficult times, Xu Jiayin still said at the trade union that he must unswervingly transition to new energy vehicles, "This transformation direction is very correct, I continue to be optimistic about new energy vehicles, and everyone can use the simplest way to observe the new energy vehicle market. You can conclude that there are more and more green license plate cars on the street, doesn’t that explain everything?"

Hengchi 5, as a key node in Hengda’s transformation to the new energy automobile industry, can successfully complete the listing in the second quarter after passing the one-month publicity period of MIIT’s new car and having the sales qualification.

Zhang Ming believed that if the funds were in place, there would be no problem in building the Hengchi 5. Regarding the funds that needed to be in place, there were rumors on the Internet that Xu Jiayin paid for some of them out of his own pocket to support the production of the Hengchi 5, and the source of the remaining funds was still unclear.

As for Hengda’s future, Zhang Ming said: "I have learned a lot during my two years in office. For such a start-up company from 0 to 1, the integration is not good at first, but the process specification of the enterprise is gradually being established, and it is also slowly moving from an extensive real estate company to a lean car company, and starting to do some compliance things."

Judging from Evergrande’s recent actions, the mass production of Hengchi 5 is accelerating, and Xu Jiayin is still insisting on car manufacturing. On March 22 this year, Xu Jiayin put forward a request at the mass production mobilization meeting of Hengchi 5: "The automobile group must fight day and night, work hard, and work hard for three months. On June 22, we must achieve mass production of Hengchi 5, and lay a solid foundation for the healthy and sustainable development of Hengda Automobile." In many eyes, this is another slogan of Evergrande, but it is still a big challenge for Evergrande.

At the same time, in the future, Hengda Automobile will be continuously scrutinized by everyone and will not only be listed on Hengchi 5. What will be the blind and pre-sale results of Hengchi 5? What kind of selling points can Hengchi 5, which threatens to benchmark BMW X1 and Audi Q3, come up with? Will the car be sold directly or as a franchise in the future? Epidemics, lack of cores, price increases and other black swan events have taken turns to impact the automotive industry. Is Hengda Automobile, which is still in the running-in period, systematically capable of responding to these crises?

How Evergrande will answer these unanswered questions in the future remains to be seen.

Do you know Andy Lau? The movie "Crowd" special short film is online


1905 movie network news There is a saying in the entertainment industry: one idol a year, a hundred years. In the 40 years of his debut, Andy Lau has accompanied the growth of several generations. In the music world, he is the four heavenly kings; in the TV wall, he is the five tiger generals; in the film industry, he is the hardware best actor. It is the single loop in the earphones, and there are also hundreds of lives on the screen. Andy Lau’s existence is the idol of countless people when they are young. It can be said that everyone has Andy Lau in their life.

Recently, the film released a special short film "Do You Know Andy Lau". The short film is full of the love for Andy Lau from several generations. In the eyes of the security guard brother, he is a big star, and in the eyes of the uncle and aunt, he is a symbol of struggle. In the face of the public’s love for him, Andy Lau sincerely expressed his gratitude to everyone, and even "met" fans of the same name and age. This full of warmth and touching, like the movie "Crowd", conveys the power of healing to the audience, encouraging everyone to "cow" turn the world around and move forward in the new year.


The movie "Crowd" tells the story of the ruthless "killer" Zhou Quan (Andy Lau, played) and the down-and-out dragon Chen Xiaomeng (played), who swap identities in an accident, leading to a series of humorous stories by mistake. This is the director’s second challenge to the absurd comedy genre after his well-received works. It will be officially released on the first day of the new year in 2021.


Warm people’s hearts! Everyone has a "Andy Lau" in their life.


"Do you know Andy Lau?" Most people’s first reaction to this question is: "I know." "Aha, give me a glass of for***fulness water.", "God loves ****** children!", "I didn’t have a choice before, now I want to be a good person." Whether it is those classic songs that accompanied the public to grow up, or the deeply rooted film and television roles that played, Andy Lau has an indelible mark on the hearts of every audience. Even today, his songs are still at the top of the chart in KTV, and his movies are still accompanying the audience to grow up.

For most people, listening to his songs and watching him act since childhood has been a common idol for generations. In this regard, Andy Lau smiled knowingly and said: "In fact, it is a very happy thing to grow up with so many people." When facing everyone who calls himself "King of Heaven" and "Big Star", Andy Lau said: "Sometimes people think I am a big star, but I feel that I am not so close to everyone."


In some people’s lives, Andy Lau is the backing track of his wife when she dances in the square; in some people’s lives, Andy Lau is the standard for finding a partner; in others, Andy Lau is regarded as an idol and role model in life. In the special short film, an uncle who has the same name and age as Andy Lau and runs small fried vegetables in the market shouts through the air, expressing his greatest wish to see Andy in Hong Kong.

In order to satisfy the uncle’s wish, the two Lau Dehua "met" through the screen, which made people feel full of warmth and touch. Meeting Lau Dehua in the surging crowd, accompanying the public to grow up across several eras, and thanking Lau Dehua for appearing in everyone’s life.


Embrace yourself! See the real Andy Lau in the movie Crowd


In addition to classic works, Andy Lau has always been praised for his dedication to his work. An audience member who is about the same age as Andy Lau and is in his 60s said: "Mr. Liu, I really admire you. When I was a child, I struggled and you struggled. In the end, I couldn’t struggle anymore. You are still struggling." In the new film "The Crowd of People", Andy Lau plays Zhou Quan, who has the same characteristics as himself. No matter how bad the life situation is, no matter what kind of problems he encounters, Zhou Quan always encourages himself to persevere and persevere.

In this regard, the director Rao Xiaozhi also said in an interview: "In the past works of Andy Lau’s participation, everyone will think that Andy Lau is still Andy Lau in everything, not that role. But in this film, Andy Lau can be Andy Lau. There is a wonderful sense of the unity of actors and characters that is worth playing. This wonderful sense is that the audience not only sees the comprehensive characteristics played by Andy Lau, but also sees the characteristics and imprints of Andy Lau through the comprehensive. There is a sense of drama."


Talking about the movie "The Crowd", which will be released on the first day of the new year this year, Andy Lau’s feelings are very different from those of previous works: "I seem to walk through my Andy Lau’s life again, and I become an extra in the play." After being suddenly changed identity, everything that Andy Lau plays in a completely unfamiliar world is like the self who just entered the industry many years ago. Uneasy strangeness, unknown life experiences, in "The Crowd", Andy Lau completely returns to his youth, and he plays the unworldly self.

On the first day of the new year in 2021, we will have the opportunity to meet the original intention of Andy Lau again. In the movie "Crowd", he will face the audience with his most authentic appearance, communicate with the world with his own rules, and hug everyone who has helped him in the crowd. I sincerely thank you for meeting you in the crowd.


Consumers are harassed for giving bad reviews. Why is the bad review mechanism of takeaway platforms useless?

  investigation motive

  Ordering food through takeaway platforms has become a dining choice for many people. Due to considerations such as smooth consumer rights protection and internal management, most takeaway platforms have set up an evaluation mechanism for takeaway brothers. However, this evaluation mechanism is somewhat out of shape in practice – consumers are not satisfied with the service and give bad reviews. The takeaway brother was fined for working for a day, which caused conflicts between the two sides, and even caused some disputes. An evaluation mechanism with good intentions, why has it become a "trigger" for conflicts?

  I ordered takeaway, and it was one hour beyond the delivery time. Call the takeaway brother, and the takeaway brother hangs up; call the merchant, and the merchant says the takeaway brother didn’t come to pick up the meal.

  After being hungry for more than an hour, Beijing citizen Jiang Xuelian was ready to complain. The merchant kept explaining to her that the delivery brother was not easy, and customer complaints would lead to the delivery brother being deducted.

  In the end, Jiang Xuelian chose to admit that she was unlucky. Jiang Xuelian did this not because she was persuaded by the merchant, but because she was worried about harassment, retaliation and even more extreme behavior due to complaints or bad reviews.

  These concerns are not unfounded, but there are already cases. "Although there are user evaluation mechanisms for online shopping, takeout, etc., but look at the threats and injuries caused by bad reviews, who would dare to complain or give bad reviews," Jiang Xuelian said.

  What happened after giving a bad review?

  "I may be a little stubborn, but I really can’t bear it." This year, Beijing resident Xue Qi gave bad reviews after ordering takeout twice, which in the eyes of friends is only done by "female men".

  This was the first time that Xueqi had ordered the takeaway with red oil, but when she received the takeaway, she found that it was clear soup and water. Xueqi negotiated with the merchant and got a reply: "Sorry, the chef is new here, something went wrong in her busy schedule, you can just eat it, it won’t be like this next time."

  "After saying this, the merchant hung up the phone directly. For merchants with this attitude, of course, they have to give a bad review. However, thinking that the takeaway brother delivered it in advance, I gave the product 1 star and the takeaway quality 5 stars." Xue Qi said that when she checked the merchant’s homepage again, she found that the merchant’s homepage showed that she gave an average score of 3 points for the takeaway order. "I later found out that if I want that order to have only 1 point, it means that I have to give the takeaway brother a bad review, but the takeaway brother will be deducted from his salary for a few hundred yuan. In the end, I still felt sorry for the takeaway brother and gave up the idea of giving a bad review. This experience taught me that even if it is delivered on time, the delivery guy will still be affected by such a scoring system. "

  The second time I gave a bad review was because a takeaway platform has opened a on-time delivery service, and if it is delayed, it will be compensated. "At that time, I ordered at a relatively remote place. Usually, when I ordered food at that time, the delivery time would be 20 minutes later than expected. I wanted to see if the on-time delivery service of the takeaway platform could really be delivered on time. After ordering, the on-time delivery time passed, but the takeaway staff ordered it and it was delivered when it was still two kilometers away from me." Xue Qi said that she chose to complain.

  However, what Ling Xueqi didn’t expect was that the next day, the delivery brother called and begged to withdraw the complaint. "The delivery brother said that he was deducted 300 yuan because of this complaint. After receiving the call, I asked the customer service’withdraw the complaint, what should I do ‘. The reason for saying this is to test whether the platform cares about the customer’s reason for withdrawing the complaint. As a result, the customer service quickly replied,’ If you agree, I will withdraw the complaint for you ‘. After confirming that he agreed to withdraw the complaint, the delivery brother never contacted me again."

  "Through these two complaints, I realized that the various disputes between the delivery brother and the customer reported by some media were the product of this simple management method. It was the delivery company that put the delivery staff and the customer on the opposite side," Xue Qi said.

  You can check who gave a bad review in the background.

  In the interview, the reporter learned that in order to attract more consumers, some takeaway platforms have set up a reward and penalty system for their "riders". For example, if the food is not delivered within the specified time, the takeaway "rider" will be deducted 20 yuan; if the customer complains (overtime is one of the main reasons for the complaint), 200 yuan will be deducted. However, the basic salary of the takeaway "rider" is only 3,000 or 4,000 yuan a month, and it must be guaranteed that more than 600 orders will be delivered a month to get the basic salary. More than 600 orders will be rewarded according to each order, and once the money is deducted, it is equivalent to 3 orders being given away for free, and the complaint is equivalent to a day in vain.

  Gu Feng (a pseudonym) is a delivery staff of a takeaway platform. He told reporters that before taking up his job, the platform will provide relevant training on preventing complaints or bad reviews. For example, if a customer does not answer the phone, he usually waits 5 minutes to send a text message. The content of the text message is similar to "Hello, I am a delivery staff. I will deliver food to you. If you are not here, you have to deliver other food first. Please call back quickly when you see it. I wish you a happy meal." "These are all templates. If the time is very short, you must come back to deliver to this customer first; if it is indeed far away, you must discuss with the customer. In addition, for the situation of missing meals, be sure to explain to the customer. If the customer says it’s okay, then there is no need to pay; if some meals can’t be eaten without soup, most of them have to pay. I have paid a bowl of beef noodles, more than 30 yuan. In the words of our webmaster, bad reviews and complaints depend on your service attitude, overtime cannot decide the complaint, attitude is decisive. In addition, if a customer gives us a bad review, we will not be deducted, only if the service attitude is not good will be deducted. "

  At the same time, Gu Feng also revealed to reporters that the so-called "anonymous evaluation" of many platforms cannot be anonymous at all. The experience of some consumers confirms this statement.

  Last month, Liu Rui, a white-collar worker in Beijing, gave a bad review to the delivery guy because of the delivery timeout problem. Then, Liu Rui received a call from the delivery guy and asked why she gave the bad review. Putting down the phone, Liu Rui realized a question. She was obviously anonymous. Why did she still receive this call? 

  In September, a takeaway ordered by Yang Chunwei, a Beijing resident, was delivered an hour later than expected because the delivery brother took the wrong meal at the restaurant. Half an hour after delivery, the delivery brother started calling Yang Chunwei and asking him why he gave a bad review. "I said I didn’t give a bad review, but he said I asked my friend to check it in the background. Later, the delivery brother texted that the merchant gave a bad review. This means that the delivery brother can find out who gave a bad review through the background within a few minutes. The so-called anonymous review has no use for anonymity."

  In this regard, Gu Feng did not say much about the specific method of background inquiry, but said, "The takeaway brother can check the consumer’s name, address, and contact information according to the historical order within one day. Generally speaking, the app will automatically block the customer’s information one day after the order is completed. However, as long as the customer comments, the backstage can still check it immediately. Therefore, the customer can comment the next day after the order is completed, so that although the takeaway brother can recall which order gave a bad review, he can’t remember the customer’s information, unless the takeaway brother has the habit of taking screenshots and recording customer information every day."

  The evaluation and punishment mechanism is criticized

  The reporter found in the investigation that many takeaway brothers expressed "very helpless" about the bad review mechanism.

  Hu Haicheng, who also works as a delivery boy in Beijing, said that there are often reports of food delivery rides and casualties. "We are also very helpless. The delivery time card is too tight, and our rules and regulations are particularly strict. A complaint call will result in a fine."

  Hu Haicheng said that the most serious penalty is the delivery staff who ordered delivery in advance, and was fined 500 yuan. Generally, complaints will be fined 200 yuan, but depending on the situation, sometimes the fine will be 500 yuan, and sometimes it will soar to 2,000 yuan. Gu Feng agreed with this point. "If the customer calls to complain, just say four words: bad attitude. Then the delivery brother’s 2,000 yuan will be gone."

  During the rainy season in July this year, Hu Haicheng was busy from noon to evening, and there was no time for a sip of water in between. There was a takeaway at that time, which was half an hour late. "I kept apologizing to the customer, but as soon as I went downstairs, they gave me a bad review." For this bad review, Hu Haicheng was fined 200 yuan.

  As for the reasons for giving bad reviews, Gu Feng said, "Most of them are because the delivery is too slow." However, there are many reasons for the slow delivery. "Sometimes it’s not the delivery guy’s problem, but when the customer is angry, they can’t listen to the explanation. If the delivery is slow and the review is bad, no matter what the reason is, the delivery guy can still figure it out. However, because the merchant doesn’t taste good, the delivery guy gets a bad review together, which makes people especially angry. The company won’t listen to the explanation, but will only ask the delivery guy to get the customer’s understanding." Gu Feng said, "However, not every customer can make sense. So, meeting some customers who can’t listen to the explanation is equivalent to a hard day in vain."

  "Some takeaway platforms handle bad reviews roughly. A bad review will deduct two or three hundred yuan, which means that the takeaway brother will lose all his salary for a day because of a bad review. In addition, the takeaway brother has very few appeal channels, and most of them can only find ways to get the customer’s forgiveness." Cheng Rui, who has done research on the takeaway market and has been experimenting with the takeaway industry for more than a year, told reporters.

  "The service evaluation system involves the interests of three parties – consumers, service personnel, and company management. The establishment of a service evaluation system is of course to safeguard the interests of the company’s management. Because the interests of the management are linked to the company’s income, and the company’s income is related to consumer choice. The quality and attitude of service personnel directly affect the choice of consumers and the company’s income. Naturally, the company’s management needs a service evaluation system." Cheng Rui said that after the management adopts the service evaluation system, it is necessary to deal with bad reviews. "Objectively speaking, there are many reasons why consumers give bad reviews, not necessarily the fault of the service personnel. For example, if the food is delivered too late, it may not be due to the inattentive delivery of the courier, but it may be due to bad weather. However, in terms of measures to deal with bad reviews, the management often chooses to be lazy, not to distinguish the reasons why consumers give bad reviews, but to think that as long as the money is deducted, the problem can be solved. "

  In the eyes of the industry insiders interviewed, consumers’ bad reviews have become the reason for management to deduct wages, which is the root cause of the problem. As service personnel, there is no complaint mechanism for bad reviews, and they can only silently accept the results of bad reviews.

  "The evaluation system was originally used as an auxiliary means to improve the service level, but the management of the enterprise did not use the evaluation data in this way, nor did it have supporting procedures to improve the service level, which resulted in the service staff or the serviced to bear the relevant contradictions." Of course, the service evaluation system is also important for consumers to protect their rights, Cheng Rui said, and it cannot be said that bad reviews will bring harm to people who are "not easy". If you want to change this situation, you need to further refine the service evaluation system. Bad reviews need to give reasons, and service personnel can appeal and defend. The company can punish service personnel or improve objective conditions according to the specific reasons for bad reviews.

Blue Feather talks to Jackie Chan | I can’t imagine myself winning the Golden Rooster Award

1905 movie network feature "When you see the Golden Rooster Trophy, will you remember the situation where you won the prize?"


In this issue of "Blue Feather Parlor", the heavy guest sitting opposite Lan Yu is the eldest brother of the "Chinese movie business card" who has won numerous awards. As mentioned above, Lan Yu was the first to throw the first question to the interviewee.


"Every nominated actor sits in the audience and probably thinks it’s me. So do I. The moment I announced the winners, I looked around and thought, ‘Could it be me?’"



In 2005, Jackie Chan became the first Hong Kong actor to win the Best Actor Award at the 14th China Film Golden Rooster Awards.


Now that he recalled the feeling of winning the award again, he bluntly said that few actors would win awards for action movies, and he didn’t think he would win awards at that time. Until the awards guest read the name, his mind was still blank, "I dare not imagine!"


Jackie Chan believes that the Golden Rooster Award is a very representative award, and he values the Golden Rooster Award very much. Especially around 2005, from to "New Police Story", Jackie Chan actively tried to challenge different types of characters and went through an extremely difficult transition stage.


Standing at the crossroads of his acting career, he hoped that everyone would realize that Jackie Chan was not just an action actor, and the recognition of the Golden Rooster Award was fulfilling his wish, "affirming that Jackie Chan is a real action actor."



The Golden Rooster Award has given Jackie Chan great recognition and become a powerful driving force on his way forward.


As 2021 marks the 40th anniversary of the establishment of the Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards, China Film Report "Blue Feather Parlor" has specially launched a series of interviews on the 40th anniversary of the Golden Rooster Awards. Looking back on the glorious years and talking about the future of Chinese film, this episode of Blue Feather talks to Jackie Chan and listens to the moments of struggle of this world-class film actor.


01


"The Golden Rooster Award is such an important award, I can get it with an action movie, it’s really incredible!"


In the past, few actors were able to win the best actor honor for an action movie. Even Jackie Chan, after winning the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, lamented his luck with "incredible".


"New Cop Story" came during Jackie Chan’s transition. Jackie Chan realized that some actors who could only act would not be able to act after a while. Especially for action movie actors, they were more limited. So he decided to seek change.


Learn screenwriting, learn photography, learn to be a director, and expand as many theatrical paths as possible. In his own words, "I want to have many talents. If I don’t change, it will be too late to change!"



In fact, from the very beginning, Jackie Chan has consciously challenged himself to play roles other than pure action actors. "Look at’Kung Fu Dream ‘, I played an old man; here, I played an older one; all the way to’Police Story’, I played a very cowardly and depressed police officer. I kept changing my role, just to make the audience accept a new Jackie Chan slowly."


From "Police Story" to "New Police Story", in addition to action scenes, Jackie Chan in the play began to experiment with tragic plays, striving to integrate delicate and tender expressions on top of the tough guy style. He performed hard from beginning to end, striving to bring richer portrayals to the characters. While working hard in literary and opera, he was even more unequivocal about his own action scenes.



Looking back at the thrilling scenes Jackie Chan created in the play, Lan Yu couldn’t help but sigh. Compared with the modesty when talking about the play, Jackie Chan, who talked about the action scenes, was obviously excited, "Every action scene is incredible, I am proud of my team and myself!"


Jackie Chan shared with Lan Yu that he once was in the cast and vomited blood while eating breakfast. Afterwards, he went to the doctor and the doctor told him that his blood vessels had burst. He asked the doctor if he would die, and the doctor said no, so after dinner, he went back to the cast to continue work. Work started on the spot when his hand was broken, and work started in the morning and afternoon when his foot was broken. Jackie Chan described that this is his life as an action actor.



Jackie Chan became the first Hong Kong actor to win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor for "New Police Story". Lan Yu couldn’t help but sigh that this is an inspiration for all action filmmakers.


After returning to Hong Kong, Jackie Chan also followed the custom of who won the award and invited dinner, hosted banquets, dinners and other friends to celebrate, and shared the joy of the Golden Rooster Award with a group of action filmmakers.



"It used to be said that we action actors should not have awards," Jackie Chan said.


He explained that, unlike a literary film performance, which can go from having no tears to having tears, a romance film can spend a lot of time depicting a relationship, and an action film has no time to say I love you or you love me. "We usually focus on action, and the plot and characters are not important. We just rely on fighting, not acting. The fight may be played for half an hour, and the emotional drama is over in two minutes."


Jackie Chan could feel that it was becoming more and more difficult for both the action actors and the stuntmen behind the scenes. "No matter who it is, every award is almost impossible for us action actors."



So, since 2015, Jackie Chan has created "Jackie Chan International Action Film Week", dedicated to giving a voice to action filmmakers. In Jackie Chan’s view, this is a series of awards for all action filmmakers in front of the stage and behind the scenes, hoping to let people all over the world see the efforts and hardships of action filmmakers. So far, Jackie Chan International Action Film Week has been successfully held for six sessions and has become a well-known brand in the international action film industry.

Jackie Chan has made hundreds of movies and won numerous awards, but he still has consistent requirements for himself, "Every play insists on the filming method of the first play, and every play is done with heart."



Jackie Chan has performed difficult moves more than once in the play. In "Hongfan District", you have to jump off the building; in "Plan A", you have to jump off the bell tower; in "Dragon Brother Tiger Brother", Jackie Chan has to jump out of one wall, grab a branch, and leap to the opposite wall.


At that time, the branches were about 15 meters away from the ground, and the ground was covered with large stones. In order to create a sense of authenticity, the crew could not set up solid protection measures on the ground. Jackie Chan jumped three times under such conditions and accidentally fell from the sky.


When filming high-altitude falls, Jackie Chan often looks down, "What will happen if I fall? If one misses, there will be no more." But every time at the end, he still insists on going into battle himself. Injuries are commonplace for Jackie Chan, and he has seen too many of his peers disabled due to action scenes.


Jackie Chan admitted that he sometimes felt afraid, "If I really want to die, I have died many times. I have broken my hands and feet, and now I can walk, eat and sleep healthily, and God really takes care of me."



In Jackie Chan’s heart, he admires those action filmmakers who never give up and stay at their posts, and he always remembers what his father said to him, "Don’t give up anything easily, as long as you work hard, one day the audience will see it." As a veteran, he is also eager to share with young people, "You work hard to do what you do now, and one day, you will be grateful for your efforts today."



Unfortunately, Jackie Chan has noticed in recent years that some young actors are too squeamish. They often arrive late, but leave early. They can’t sweat when they arrive, saying that sweating will lose powder, and they can’t be swaggering, and they can’t do dangerous things. "I won’t say who, are you worthy of so many staff members lighting, waiting and waiting for you on the scene?"


Jackie Chan specifically mentioned that when filming "New Police Story", Nicholas Tse sat next to him whenever he had time, and very humbly asked him how to practice movements and what movements to do. Jackie Chan also did not hesitate to teach him skills, "He is very flexible and has a high absorption rate. He shot" New Police Story "by himself, and he jumped down by himself at such a high place in the exhibition center."


Jackie Chan commented on Nicholas Tse. Although he was not trained in science, he became a monk halfway through and is now a professional kung fu actor. What’s even more rare is that until now, he still practices kung fu when he has time, "I like these little young people."



Nicholas Tse and Jackie Chan used to tell them when they were young, "You don’t need to tell others, the effort of one play is the same as the effort of ten plays. Keep doing every job well, and you will win and get what you want."


Based on the present, he also called on the young actor team to respect the efforts of all the staff on the scene. It cannot be said that the actors have only arrived for a while and have to take them away.



2022 is Jackie Chan’s 60th week in the industry. As a witness to Chinese and even world films, he still believes that the experience is not easy and persistence is valuable.


As the Golden Rooster Award has passed 40 years, Jackie Chan finally sent his sincere wishes: "In the past 40 years, I have witnessed the strength of our China, the prosperity of our films, and the efforts and dedication of all filmmakers. In the future, I hope the Golden Rooster Award will be better and better. See you in the next 40 years!"


Auto market reversal, why have fuel vehicles become a minority?

A landmark event has just taken place in China’s auto market: sales of new energy vehicles have surpassed those of fuel vehicles!

According to the data of the Passenger Federation, from the 1st to the 14th of this month, the retail sales of new energy vehicles 260,000 (the retail sales of passenger cars are 516,000), accounting for 50.39%, officially exceeding 50%.

New energy vehicle penetration rate finally broke 50%

New energy vehicle sales all the way, 1-14 this month compared with the same period last year increased by 32%; this year the cumulative retail 2.032 million vehicles, an increase of 34%.

In contrast, it is the "collapse" of traditional fuel vehicles. Especially the joint venture brand fuel vehicles, after dominating the market for many years, have experienced a historic collapse. In the past March, the sales of Honda Accord, which once topped the chart, fell by 72.6% year-on-year, Toyota Camry fell by 59.2%, and the Volkswagen Bora, Toyota Corolla, and Honda Fit, which are known as supercars, also fell by more than 50%.

Sales of some joint-venture fuel vehicles plunged in March (according to First Electric).

Breaking through 50% means that the car has broken through an important threshold, which is not only an important threshold for the popularization of new technologies, but also a "psychological threshold" for consumers to accept new energy vehicles.

In the classic book "The Diffusion of Innovation", the American scholar Everett Rogers proposed an innovation diffusion model that divides the process of consumer acceptance of new technologies into five stages.

The first stage is that a very small number of "innovators" take the plunge; the second stage is that a small number of "early adopters" go to the early adopters; the third stage is that the "early masses" follow the trend; the fourth stage is that the relatively conservative "late masses" finally take action; the fifth stage is that the "laggards" who lag behind the mass consumer group follow.

The penetration rate of 50% means that the acceptance of new energy vehicles by Chinese consumers is crossing the third stage, which will attract a large number of consumers who have been waiting to enter the market.

Only when new technologies are recognized by large-scale consumer groups will they truly enter the "popularization period".

The consumption of new energy vehicles in our country is entering the "popularization period"

Of course, not all new technologies will be recognized and accepted by consumers, and many will "collapse in the middle". In Rogers’ innovation diffusion model, there is another important threshold called the "chasm", also known as the "valley of death". If it cannot be crossed, the promotion of new technologies can only be abandoned halfway and cannot be popularized.

This "valley of death" lies between the second and third stages of innovation diffusion, corresponding to about 16% of the consumer population.

New technologies may encounter the "valley of death" in the process of promotion

For new energy vehicles, the "Valley of Death" will appear when the penetration rate reaches about 16%. Our country’s new energy vehicles have successfully crossed the "Valley of Death", and the time node is August 2021.

New technologies may encounter the "valley of death" in the process of promotion

It is from 2021 that our country’s automobile plug-in technology has undergone a major upgrade, driving the sales of new energy vehicles into a rapid growth channel. Chinese brand plug-in hybrid models have launched a fatal blow to fuel vehicles.

Compared with fuel vehicles, plug-in hybrid models have stronger performance, lower fuel consumption, and lower cost of use, forming a "technical suppression" of fuel vehicles. As Ouyang Minggao, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said, "Plug-in hybrid includes all the functions of fuel, plug-in, range extension, and pure electric, and is a veritable’all-round player ‘."

After Chinese brands slashed the price of plug-in models, the market share of joint venture fuel vehicles was quickly eroded.

The penetration rate of new energy vehicles has exceeded 50%, which means that mainstream consumer groups have accepted plug-in and electric new technologies, and green travel solutions have been widely praised. For new energy vehicles, consumers have turned from curiosity, doubts, wait-and-see to love and actual purchase.

The core reason why fuel vehicles are in trouble is that technological innovation has been stagnant for a long time, and product strength has been eclipsed. In more than a decade, there has been no substantial technological progress in internal combustion engines and gearboxes. The industry generally believes that fuel vehicle technology has entered the end of its life cycle, and the relevant R & D resources of major manufacturers are shrinking sharply.

The technical update of fuel vehicles has stalled

Not only that, fuel vehicles are also unable to cope with the intelligent wave that is sweeping the automotive industry, and electric vehicles have obvious advantages in terms of linear control, response speed, and control accuracy, making them a natural intelligent platform.

Richard Thaler, a Nobel laureate in economics, said: "Humans experience life through change." New energy vehicles continue to show people technological updates, becoming faster, more economical, and smarter. However, fuel vehicles remain unchanged. People’s interest in fuel vehicles is becoming less and less, and the decline of fuel vehicles is inevitable.

Andy Lau plans to bid farewell to the film industry, and his mysterious girlfriend will make her first appearance.






Does Andy Lau have a mysterious girlfriend?


    Recently, the public welfare film "Destiny" directed by Nanjing painter Zhang Juezhi is being prepared in Beijing. Yesterday, news came from the film’s producers that Hong Kong star Andy Lau will play an eminent monk in the film on a zero-pay basis. It is reported that the role is very likely to be Andy’s last appearance on the screen. After playing the eminent monk, Andy will leave the film industry and become a film investment boss behind the scenes.


    Zero pay for receiving performances without special requirements


    The producer and director of "Destiny", Zhang Juezhi, told reporters that the main line of the whole film is the causal relationship between "good and evil will eventually be rewarded". It is understood that the total investment of the film exceeds 30 million yuan. In addition to the painter Zhang Juezhi himself, entrepreneurs who advocate social ethics and are enthusiastic about philanthropy in Jiangsu and Zhejiang also strongly support it. At present, the crew has contacted Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Andy Lau and other parties, and now it is Andy Lau who is initially interested. Because the schedule is very tight, Andy did not agree to perform at first. But later Andy learned that this is a public welfare film to raise funds for charity, so he expressed his willingness to adjust the schedule and cooperate with the film shooting as much as possible. In this film, Andy will star in the film with zero pay. At the same time, Andy also made certain comments on the script, and the screenwriter is currently revising the script according to Andy’s comments. Zhang Juezhi also revealed that Andy not only does not want a salary, but also proposes that the most ordinary food and accommodation can be arranged during the shooting. Like everyone else, he does not make special requirements, "in order to save money and help the society more."


    Girlfriend will make her first cameo appearance


    In recent years, Yingyi Entertainment Company, which is the president of Andy Lau, has invested in a number of films including "World Without Thieves" and "Crazy Stone", especially "Crazy Stone", which earned 20 million yuan, making Andy lose money in one fell swoop.


    Zhang told reporters that during his contact with Andy, Andy had revealed that he wanted to quit the screen and focus on working behind the scenes as a boss. "The first thing Andy did after leaving the film industry is probably to get married and start a family. In fact, Andy mentioned that he wanted to start a family in Shanghai a few days ago, but the media did not report it." Zhang said that Andy Lau gave up the film because of the pressure. "He often called the agent in the middle of the night to discuss his work, and the agent was miserable."


    In addition, Zhang Juezhi revealed that for a long time, Andy’s girlfriend has not appeared, "In fact, he has a girlfriend, and it has been many years. This time in’Destiny ‘, Andy Lau’s girlfriend will make her debut and play a cameo role in the film. The cameo was requested by Andy’s girlfriend herself, because she believes in Buddhism and does charity, and because they are about to get married, it is the best time to appear through a charity film. Not only that, Andy’s girlfriend also wants to invest a little money into this film, and wants to help people in need through this way. However, although he wants to bid farewell to the film industry, Andy said that the road of singing will continue until he is 80 years old."
