Text | Letter from Houchang Village by | Meiya

At the beginning of 2018, the country stopped fighting, and Tencent Music and Netease Cloud authorized each other’s music works, reaching more than 99% of their exclusive music works.For users, they finally don’t have to travel around to listen to a few favorite songs. For the platform, the era of relying on copyright to build a moat has quietly gone, and the music battle will continue. It’s time to tell some other stories.

Recently, many users have complained that Netease cloud and QQ music are becoming more and more difficult to use. When you want to hear a song in Netease cloud, you need toMy favorite music, recently played song list, creation song list, collection song list, collection album, and private FM.There are so many options to choose from.

After the final selection, let’s calm down and listen to the children’s songs. An icon will appear in the upper right corner, suggesting that you watch the live broadcast crazily. In the lower right corner, we sincerely invite you to listen with friends.

Click into the song comment area, there are not many hot comments related to the song itself, but there are many late-night story meetings. Every poet in the comment area can also see advertisements for treating acne by scribbling a few casually, and they are also madly implanted in the form of comments. I have turned over several songs in a row, and there are acne advertisements implanted. Perhaps the users in the comment area are still in adolescence.

The QQ music next door is not much better. In the newly joined plop community, users can choose topic groups to post news freely. The first few pages of the recommendation group are popular traffic stars. Unlike Netease Cloud Village, the fans’ support club in plop community has stronger attributes.

Comparing Netease Cloud Village with Plop Community, a double-column information flow mode with Little Red Book requires users to click on it actively, and the information transmitted on the home page is less, which has the advantage of being more concise. At the same time, users also have a stronger choice of content. The information flow in Plop Community is similar to brushing a circle of friends, and users can only brush it without thinking to see if they can brush some interesting content.

At present, the plop community has done quite badly in some details. Various label symbols have increased the threshold for reading information, and the messages posted by users are not even aligned at both ends. The uneven arrangement is a bit obsessive-compulsive, and the recently played music bar will also block the line of sight at the bottom of the page, forcing the rhythm of obsessive-compulsive in minutes.

Aside from the design problems, the plop community often brushes the dynamics that have nothing to do with music, and whoever is lovelorn, who is married and who is cold war again.From this point of view, QQ music is gradually moving closer to Netease Cloud.

Most users listen to songs just to listen to songs, and they don’t want to socialize while listening to songs, and they are even less interested in watching live broadcasts on music apps. Some users in Zhihu commented that Netease Cloud and QQ music are two pieces of shit that are constantly stinking, which makes people gradually adapt to such music apps and gradually forget what the pure music listening ecology is like.

Users who are tired of music apps with complicated functions will think, why can’t domestic music listening software be like spotify? Simple function, refreshing interface,Don’t engage in live social networking, honestly make products and earn some money from paying members, isn’t it good?

But business does not think so.

No matter how much Netease CEO Ding Lei talks about his ideal about music, it still can’t change the fact that starting a company is not about charity, but about making money. If you can make a grand narrative while making money, that’s good. If not, it’s still important to make money.

If you want to make money, you have to occupy more market share or increase the payment rate of users.

Tencent Music Q1′ s financial report shows that Tencent Music (QQ Music, Cool Dog Music, Cool Me Music) has a monthly activity of 657 million, up only 0.5% year-on-year and down 2% month-on-month. Netease Cloud announced the latest monthly activity of 165 million.The monthly number of online music in China is 710 million, which has almost been divided by Tencent Music and Netease Cloud.

The world is divided into two parts. Netease Cloud and QQ Music think the same thing.How to snatch users from each other and how to make every user contribute the greatest value.

How to rob users from each other? The simplest point is that if the other party has it, I will have it.

When you do live broadcast, there will be a group of anchors running to your place to live broadcast, and correspondingly there will be a group of people watching live broadcast, who will spend more time in your product, which I don’t want to see, so I will do it. You have supported a group of musicians, and if they are unfortunately popular, the traffic will tilt to you again, which is what I don’t want to see, so I will try my best to support musicians, and so will other actions.

After exchanging copyrights, it is difficult for both parties to rely on content to crush the other party, and it is necessary to start to differentiate. Now, it seems that both parties can’t tolerate each other’s specialities, so the music listening software is gradually becoming more and more complicated.

In addition, the platform should be just right. The 2020Q1 financial report shows that,Spotify, a foreign music streaming giant, has a monthly income of 286 million and 130 million paying users.This is a 45% payment rate, in contrast,Tencent Music’s subscription rate is only 6.5%.There is still a lot of room for improvement.

The simplest and most rude way to make more people pay to become subscription members is to make the experience of ordinary users listening to songs worse, including not listening to the songs they want to listen to, advertising bombing, inserting advertisements into music and so on.

Some time ago, QQ Music tried to insert advertisements while users were listening to songs. This is a test of Spotify mode. Spotify will insert audio promotion when non-member users listen to songs. However, Spotify’s rules are clear, and it will broadcast an advertisement for no more than 10 seconds every 15 minutes. If you choose to watch a movie advertisement for 60 seconds at a time, you can get an hour of listening to songs without advertisements.

Spotify has a large number of free music libraries, and users have been clearly informed of the advertising rules, so after weighing, users either choose to become paying users or accept advertisements every 15 minutes, and there is nothing particularly controversial.

The reason why QQ music commercials are embarrassing is that you didn’t provide me with quality services, full-screen advertising, live broadcast, social interaction, and APP are like telephone poles covered with small flyers.I’ve put up with this, and now you’re going to ruin my listening experience and force me to pay. Of course, users are unhappy.

The platform is also very innocent. The green diamond costs 15 yuan a month, and Spotify members pay 10 yuan a month. QQ music just randomly inserts advertisements, and Spotify will insert advertisements every 15 minutes when listening to songs. How can it be scolded?

This is a natural contradiction between the platform and users. Users should have a better experience, and the platform should pay for members, so that users can experience the inconvenience of non-members and tell them that membership will be better. But you can’t do it all at once, or users will think that your whole platform is rubbish, so you have to grasp the middle degree.

Compared with placing advertisements, which will obviously hurt users, adding some functional areas secretly is annoying, but not so annoying. It is very expensive for users to change their music listening software. It is very troublesome to change from Netease Cloud to QQ music, and all songs have to be collected and synchronized again.

Therefore, users can’t bear it, and they are too lazy to change places to listen to songs. This gives Netease Cloud and QQ music opportunities. They are eyeing original musicians, and the cost is not high. If it is on fire, the waist copyright will become the head copyright. Moreover, the influence of supporting original musicians on ordinary users is very subtle, and people will only feel vaguely that the quality of songs pushed by Japan is getting lower and lower, more and more new faces appear in the recommendation places, and they seem to know nothing about the music trend.

More original music can open the ceiling of music content. At one end of the platform, we signed up potential original singers, promised them how much exposure and how much play, and quietly added the songs of these singers to your daily tweet. You listened to two songs that you didn’t like so much, and the musicians were happy and the platform was happy.

Besides supporting musicians, it is also a good idea to be a community.It shifts the cost of linking users from the platform to the users themselves, and cultivates people’s habit of reading comments and making dynamic comments when listening to songs. If they happen to meet the same hobby in the community, users will be more sticky to the products.

And for people who just want to listen to music simply. Although joining the community function will greatly affect the conciseness of the page, as long as you are not blind, it is not much different from the previous experience of listening to songs, even if some of them offend users.Anyway, Netease Cloud and QQ music are becoming more and more similar. If you escape to another APP to listen to songs, you can’t escape the music community.

Therefore, doing things like community can make people who like it like it very much. People who don’t like it are annoying, but they are helpless. And these people who like community will have higher stickiness and stronger willingness to pay. The user value of these people is far higher than that of users who stay because of copyright.

For community products, the content is core competitiveness.In recent years, comments on Netease Cloud songs have become more and more sad in spring and autumn, and they are full of Osamu Dazai-style mourning words, which makes Netease Cloud get the nickname of "suppressing the cloud by the net". People are tired of seeing the words piled up with moans, and they hope that the comment area can return to focusing on the music itself. It is not an easy proposition for Netease Cloud to change the content tonality of the platform UGC.

The plop community of QQ music starts with rice circles, doing the business of fan economy, and by the way, see if we can build a community covering music, film and television, life and other fields.This entry point is quite good. Although fans used to list Aidou on Weibo, Post Bar and other platforms, from the attribute point of view, music APP+ fan gathering place is obviously more suitable, which can provide a refined channel for fans and reduce the cost of information transmission between users.

At present, the content form of plop community is not mature, and there is still a big gap between the community atmosphere and Netease cloud.However, from the recent actions of QQ Music and Netease Cloud, it is not difficult to see the determination of both parties to make efforts in the community.

It’s just that no matter who wins or loses, for ordinary users, an increasingly bloated music listening software has a high probability of escaping.

Pro-test Cadillac XT5 for 10 days, dig deep into the advantages and disadvantages, and laugh about the experience of buying a car.

To tell the truth, I was lucky enough to borrow one recently, and I was uneasy and looking forward to it. This car is famous, and people will always have different opinions when they hear the name. Some people think this is a luxury SUV, especially cattle; However, many people think that this is a second-line brand, especially in terms of fuel consumption and maintenance. So, I thought, experience it for myself and see what it is like.

Basic impression of

Cadillac is like a ""in my eyes. It has the temperament of a luxury car, but it is a little embarrassed. It is still a little worse than the top luxury car. When someone hears Cadillac, they can’t wait to clap their hands and think it is a symbol of status; But when some people see it, they don’t care at all. They think this car is only suitable for people who pursue individuality, so it can’t be taken seriously.

This response made me curious about XT5. After all, if you want to know whether a car is good or not, you have to drive it yourself.

The controversy about Cadillac

Talking about this car with friends, people don’t think much of Cadillac. Some friends complain that the fuel consumption is too high, while others say that the maintenance cost in the later period is also heartbreaking. As a luxury SUV, these two problems are absolutely fatal. Especially in cars with the same price, if the fuel consumption of XT5 is not ideal, it will definitely make people tangled.

However, if you listen to what others say, you still have to look at it yourself before you can draw a conclusion.

Personal experience: driving Cadillac XT5 for 10 days.

After ten days of driving, let me tell you my true feelings.

Driving experience

Let’s talk about the feeling of driving first As soon as you get into this car, you can feel its luxury in an instant. The seat is particularly well wrapped, the hardness is just right, and you won’t feel tired after driving for a long time. Moreover, the XT5′ s 2.0T and 9AT gearbox make the power output very smooth. When driving in the city, the power is on call, and occasionally there are a few slight setbacks, but the impact is really small, and the overall driving experience can be said to be very good.

Comfort

When it comes to comfort, this car is really unique. XT5 is really particular about the materials used for seats and interiors. Leather is soft and pleasant to the touch. There is also a technology configuration, and it is also very intuitive to operate. Driving in the city, the mute effect in the car is quite good, and the noise outside doesn’t bother me at all, and the overall experience is satisfactory.

Driving performance

Let’s talk about driving performance. When the car passes through some potholes and roads, the vibration in the car is particularly well filtered, and there is basically no sense of bumps. The stability of the car body is also great, and you can feel at ease when driving at high speed, so you don’t have to worry about swaying.

Disadvantages: space and back row performance

Although the overall experience is good, there are some shortcomings. For example, the XT5′ s internal space is slightly compact. If you are tall like me, you may feel a little cramped sitting in the back. Compared with other joint venture SUVs, XT5′ s space performance has no obvious advantage, even slightly inferior.

Fuel consumption: the actual performance of light mixing system

Let’s talk about fuel consumption. XT5 is equipped with 48V light mixing system, which is a fuel-saving weapon in theory. However, in actual use, the performance of fuel consumption is nothing special. Personally, the daily fuel consumption is kept within a reasonable range, but if you want to pursue the ultimate fuel economy, you may be disappointed.

Summing up thinking: the mystery of XT5 sales.

Finally, I gradually realized that XT5′ s poor sales were mostly due to Cadillac’s insufficient publicity, not the car itself. Many potential consumers don’t fully understand the advantages and disadvantages of this car, and some negative comments have affected their choice.

Generally speaking, XT5 is an SUV worthy of attention, which is unique in luxury, comfort and technology configuration. If you pay attention to space and fuel consumption, you may have to think about it. However, I hope my real experience can help friends who are hesitant to buy this car!

Panda’s sound sleep was awakened by tourists. Netizen was angry: he was punished as a volunteer for one month.

  The panda baby "Little Gray" shot by netizens who was thrown with fruit.

  Central media attention

  After the photos were posted on the Internet, they were reprinted by the People’s Daily, CCTV News, State Forestry Administration and other official Weibo.

  A phenomenon

  Some tourists throw apples, pears and other fruits at the baby pandas because they can’t see the panda’s dynamics, and some even throw stones.

  The security guard is helpless

  Every time we catch tourists throwing indiscriminately, we can only criticize education. "Otherwise, what can we do?" People are not illegal, and we can’t enforce the law. "

  A baby panda, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by a sudden fig, turned around and showed his claws, showing an angry look at the tourists … … On December 8th, a scene happened in chengdu research base of giant panda Sun Delivery Room, which was recorded by Weibo netizen "Ghost Yulin". After continuous shooting’s photo was posted on the Internet, it was reprinted by People’s Daily, CCTV News, State Forestry Administration and other official Weibo, and quickly aroused the criticism of uncivilized behavior from netizens all over the country.

  In response, the Panda Base will take measures such as strengthening security management to protect the safety of pandas. Yesterday afternoon, the reporter of Chengdu Business Daily saw in the sun delivery room where the incident occurred that some foreign tourists climbed and screamed in front of the viewing aisle from time to time, and the on-site security guards repeatedly warned that there was no result.

  Netizens are angry.

  Suggest that he be punished for volunteering for one month.

  The baby panda born in August this year is less than 4 months old and is the smallest panda in the base at present. Because of its young age and gray color, it is nicknamed "Little Lime" and "Little Gray" by netizens, and its name is "Chengshi".

  According to the photos exposed on the Internet, when it was smashed, the little gray was lying on the wooden frame of the sun delivery room and sleeping leisurely. A fig fell a few centimeters away from it. Gray gray looked up at the tourists, showed his claws and growled. Then, it climbed to the broken fig, smelled it, faced the tourists again, hunched its back, tightened its forelimbs and made an attack gesture.

  "Little gray is angry!" "The contempt of the gray king" … … On December 11th, after the pictures were posted on the Internet, they were reprinted by People’s Daily, CCTV News and other Weibo, which caused a heated discussion among netizens. Some netizens made "expression packs" with angry photos of the little gray gray with words to express their dissatisfaction with the uncivilized behavior of the tourists. Many netizens have left messages suggesting that uncivilized actors "volunteer at the Panda Base for one month".

  The ash was smashed and "alarmed" the State Forestry Administration. Weibo, the official of the State Forestry Administration, forwarded the relevant Weibo twice, calling on tourists to "strengthen the concept of civilized visits, civilized gardens and animal protection" and suggesting that "the garden should strengthen the propaganda and supervision of civilized visits and animal science popularization."

  Speaking of the reasons for putting photos online at first, netizen "Ghost Yulin" said that as a panda fan, she went to the panda base every month to see pandas. She hoped to remind everyone through exposure, but she did not expect to attract such great attention.

  Journalist visit

  Foreign tourists keep coming, and there are still uncivilized behaviors.

  Yesterday afternoon, the reporter went to the sun delivery room where small gray was kept in captivity. Maybe I was frightened a few days ago. Little gray curled up under a tree in the middle of the hillside, with his back to the tourists. The reporter noticed that the Sun Delivery Room takes a hillside as the panda activity place and is surrounded by a circle of plank roads for tourists to visit and take photos.

  Although it is Monday, there are still many foreign tourists with accents from all over the country at the Panda Base. What separates tourists from pandas is a three-layer isolation belt: a row of wooden fences less than 1 meter high, a row of bushes half a meter wide and a deep ditch. In the evening, there were not many tourists in the Sun Delivery Room, but there was still a lively atmosphere: the panda moved and the tourists screamed and cheered; When the panda was not moving, several foreign tourists with backpacks whistled and clapped their hands to "lure" the panda to get up. There are also tourists who dip their bodies into the fence to take selfies, or carry children to the fence to walk around.

  The security of the sun delivery room has been overwhelmed. A security guard said angrily after repeatedly failing to greet tourists that the security guard was fined because the uncivilized behavior of tourists was put on the Internet. The entire sun delivery room is equipped with three security guards, who patrol in circles every day, but still can’t stop the uncivilized behavior of tourists. The moon delivery room, which also houses baby pandas in captivity, faces the same problem. As the two most popular tourist attractions in the panda base, the Moon Delivery Room is crowded with people every day. The security guard told reporters that some tourists threw apples, pears and other fruits at the baby panda because they couldn’t see the panda walking, and some even threw stones.

  Base reply

  Increase the notice board, no littering, welcome to report.

  Yesterday afternoon, chengdu research base of giant panda gave panda fans a reassurance: after inspection, Little Grey was not affected by this matter. Panda Base also replied that in response to some uncivilized behaviors of tourists, the base is taking effective measures such as increasing the number of "no throwing and throwing" notice boards, strengthening security management, strengthening three-dimensional coordination and defense, and strengthening civilized persuasion of tourists, and welcomes fans’ supervision, complaints and reports. The security guard said that for the key areas of panda baby activities, the patrol team will arrange special personnel to be on duty at designated points, and the rest will patrol in circles. But every time we catch a tourist throwing around, we can only criticize and educate him. "Otherwise, what can we do with him?" People are not illegal, and we can’t enforce the law. "

Oil leakage from the engine of Aika garage may help.

  [Original by Aika Car Center]

Aika car repair shop

  Engine oil leakage is as hard to prevent as a person catching a cold, and it will inevitably appear after a certain mileage. Although the tiny leakage will not affect the normal driving, the dust entering the engine room will stick to the surface of the oil, forming greasy dirt over time, which will seriously hinder the heat dissipation of the engine.

Replace valve cover gasket.

  Let’s not talk about what harm oil leakage will bring to the engine for the time being. It is enough to make people hate it. Take the "patient" who checked into the garage this time. Although this is a short-lived Excelle, judging from the oil leakage of the engine, you will not imagine that this is a quasi-new car with a mileage of less than 40000km.

First, how to judge oil leakage

  Slight oil leakageYou can take no measures for the time being, butTo attract enough attention,Because the oil leakage point is the weakest part of the engine seal, the leakage will become more and more serious as time goes by.

  When the vehicle is running, the wind flowing into the engine room will blow the leaked engine oil to all corners. This is the reason why oil sludge will stick to the parts without oil leakage.

  During inspection, the leakage can be identified according to the wetting degree of the mimeograph.The wettest part of the mimeograph is the place where the oil leakage is the most serious.After external rough inspection, it can be locked that the oil leakage point is mainly concentrated in the valve cover, and the oil leakage is caused by the aging of the gasket.

Second, the best way to treat leakage — — Change!

  The function of the gasket is to prevent oil from leaking from the engine.Once leakage occurs, replacing the gasket is the only way out.

  In fact, the replacement of the valve cover gasket is not complicated. Just remove a few screws to remove the valve cover, and then replace it with a new gasket. Without saying much, we will go directly to the link of replacing the valve cover gasket.

  The engine room structure of this Buick Excelle is relatively simple, so this repair is not difficult. Although the maintenance method cannot cover all models, you can probably understand the structure of the valve cover and gasket through the disassembly and assembly of this engine, and finally choose whether to replace it yourself according to the actual situation.

1. Pay attention to check whether there are other oil leakage points during disassembly.

  The fixing screws of the valve cover cannot be seen from the outside. You need to remove the dust cover of the engine first, and then remove the dust cover screw.

  The leaked engine oil will affect the life and friction of the belt, so we can also replace the camshaft oil seal after we remove the valve cover. Fortunately, the back of the gear is very clean, and it can basically be concluded that the camshaft oil seal is intact.

  The maintenance of the timing mechanism is very important for the engine.The operation of engine is closely related to the correct valve timing. Timing misalignment may cause the engine to fail to start;When the timing belt breaks, it is likely to cause the valve to bend; If it breaks during driving, the top of the piston may be punctured.

  (Now that we’re here, let’s take a short break. Let’s briefly talk about the principle of crankcase ventilation.)

  The high temperature of the engine will make the engine oil in the crankcase generate steam, and at the same time, some exhaust gas after gasoline combustion will also jump into the crankcase, resulting in excessive pressure in the engine. When the pressure is too high, the circulation of engine oil will be hindered, which will affect the lubrication of components, and at the same time, high pressure will increase the possibility of oil leakage at the sealing parts.

  So,It has become a necessary subject to discharge oil vapor in time.

  At present, all engines adopt crankcase forced ventilation. Different from natural ventilation, forced ventilation will make the steam in the crankcase return to the intake port and the combustion chamber for secondary combustion, thus avoiding air pollution and improving the economy and reliability of the engine.

  This is mainlyIn order to keep the pressure in the crankcase consistent under different working conditions.And designed.

  What if the ventilation pipe is only arranged in front or behind the throttle valve?

  At low speed and small load, the crankcase gas may not be pumped out; However, if it is arranged behind the throttle, it may form excessive vacuum under low speed and small load, which may lead to the generation of burning oil.

  In fact, the oil entering the spark plug hole will not have much influence on the ignition system. Unlike water, oil has certain insulation, and the ignition coil is not subject to leakage.

Macron met with hundreds of corporate executives such as Musk and called on foreign companies to "choose France."

  [Dong Ming, special correspondent of Global Times in France] According to Reuters, on 15th local time, French President Macron met with hundreds of executives of multinational companies, including Musk, CEO of Tesla, and expressed the hope that they would increase their investment in France, promote the re-industrialization transformation of France based on green innovation and create more jobs.

  The 6th "Choose France" Investment Summit was held in the Palace of Versailles, a suburb of Paris, on the 15th, which is a high-level economic activity that the French government has been promoting since 2018. According to the announcement issued by the French Presidential Palace, the summit was attended by more than 200 executives from multinational companies, attracting investment of 13 billion euros, and it is estimated that 8,000 jobs will be created.

  Reuters said that this is the biggest harvest of the "Choose France" summit since its establishment six years ago. At the same time, for French President Macron, the "Choose France" summit is a good opportunity for him to regain the initiative through business reform, shift people’s attention to promoting green industries such as electric vehicles and low-carbon industries, and reverse his previous negative comments caused by the policy of raising the retirement age in France.

  The French version of the Huffin Post commented that the French President met with senior executives such as Musk at the Elysee Palace, releasing a signal that France is pursuing a new industrialization policy, reducing labor costs and accelerating ecological transformation. On the same day, Macron met with Musk in the Elysee Palace alone, conveying the French government’s desire to lay out the electric vehicle industry. The two discussed France’s policy of attracting foreign investment and the future layout of France’s development in the fields of electric vehicles and energy.
