On April 10th, the brand-new BYD Han series was officially launched. The new cars are divided into three series according to the power type, among which there are three models in EV Chuangshi Edition, and the price range after comprehensive subsidy is 269,800 to 288,600 yuan. In addition, there is a limited edition of Qian Shan Cui, which sells for 329,800 yuan. There are 4 DM-i versions, and the price range after comprehensive subsidy is 215,800 to 289,800 yuan; Finally, there is one DM-p version with a price of 319,800 yuan. At this point, BYD’s "Dynasty" series finally achieved DM-i full coverage.

At the same time, BYD also announced the listing rights of new cars, including the lifetime warranty of non-operating vehicles (the first owner), the replacement subsidy of 4,000 yuan, free car replacement, free airport parking, free installation of charging piles for the first owner, and 2 years of free car traffic (5GB/ month).

■　EV Edition: A More Powerful New Big Man

Regarding the static introduction of the new Han EV, you can watch the video analysis we made before, and refine the differences between several new versions and the previous generation Han EV in design and modeling.

The first is the fine-tuning of the size. Compared with the previous version, the new BYD Han EV is 15mm longer, while the width, height and wheelbase remain the same. Therefore, although the new Han has become bigger, it is not obvious from the body shape. However, on the other hand, the captain of 4995mm can still enhance the competitiveness of the new Han EV in the same level market.

Secondly, the power has become stronger, especially its front motor, the maximum power is 180kW, and the peak torque can reach 350Nm, which is obviously improved compared with the previous generation of Han EV, while the rear electric drive parameters of the dual-motor four-wheel drive version have not changed, and its comprehensive maximum output is 380kW, and the comprehensive peak torque can reach 700Nm.

The third is the increase of endurance. With the blade battery of 85.4kWh, the new Han EV has a cruising range of 610km and 715km under CLTC comprehensive working conditions, even at the lowest level, it runs farther than the super-long endurance version of the previous generation Han EV.

In addition, it is worth noting that at present, many large and medium-sized pure electric cars with endurance of 700km or more on the market have battery capacities ranging from 90kWh to 100kWh, but the brand-new Han EV can achieve the same effect only by being equipped with 85.4kWh battery pack. It must be said that BYD still has deep technical reserves in the three-power technology.

In the intelligent part, the new Han EV is mainly upgraded on DiPilot intelligent driver assistance system. The new car will be equipped with 22 sensing components, and at the same time, it will add functions such as highway driving assistance and emergency avoidance assistance, which can better provide accurate and efficient help for drivers.

In terms of intelligent cockpit, the new Han EV will be equipped with DiLink 4.0 intelligent network connection system as standard, as well as high-end configurations and functions such as 5G quick connection, dual-frequency positioning, four-tone voice interaction, HiFi-level customized Tanner audio, W-HUD head-up display, DMS fatigue driving warning system, etc., and at the same time support remote upgrade of OTA of the whole vehicle.

In the new Han EV series, there is also a limited edition of Qian Shan Cui, which not only has an exclusive green color scheme, but also has exclusive configurations and interior and exterior decoration kits such as high-grade suede seats, sports interior kits, UWB digital keys and high-performance stone green four-piston pliers. In terms of power, the power system of this model is the same as the "610KM four-wheel drive exclusive type" of the conventional Genesis version.

■　How to choose the new Han EV?

Among the four models, which version of the new Han EV has the highest cost performance? First of all, from the power point of view, the new Han EV can be regarded as two single-motor front-wheel drive models and two-motor four-wheel drive models, so if consumers need four-wheel drive systems, they can only choose from the "610KM four-wheel drive exclusive model" of 288,600 yuan, and if there are higher requirements for battery life, I think the "715KM distinguished model" is completely sufficient.

Because as the basic model of the new Han EV, its configuration itself is rich enough, and it can meet most of the daily needs in terms of quality and experience, and even a little surprise.

Of course, the entry level is not the most comprehensive in terms of intelligent driving assistance. If there are high requirements for this part of the configuration, I suggest choosing the "715KM flagship type" because there is not much difference between it and the "four-wheel drive exclusive type" in terms of driving assistance configuration, and the price is only 17,700 yuan more expensive than the entry level, which is still relatively cost-effective.

■　DM-i/p Edition: The Strongest "Chinese"

For the static introduction of the new Han DM-i, you can click on the video to analyze and watch it. As for the DM-p version, there is no obvious difference between it and the new Chinese DM-i version in appearance and interior design, but it has improved its power performance, and it is also the most powerful version of the new Chinese system.

The power system of the new Han DM-i/p version consists of Xiaoyun-Plug-in special turbocharged 1.5Ti high-efficiency engine and driving motor, in which the maximum power of the engine is 102kW and the peak torque is 231Nm；. In the driving motor part, the DM-i version will be equipped with a front single motor and two parameter versions, while the DM-p version will be equipped with front and rear double motors.

If we simply superimpose the parameters of the DM-p version of the drive motor, it is concluded that its comprehensive maximum power is 360kW and its peak torque is 675Nm, which is very close to the performance of the previous generation of the most powerful EV. In addition, with an efficient engine, the performance can be imagined. No wonder the acceleration of 100 kilometers is only 3.7s s.

In addition, in terms of endurance and fuel consumption, the new Han DM-i version has a fuel consumption of 4.2L to 4.5L per 100 kilometers under NEDC working conditions, and the comprehensive cruising range can reach 1300km, and the longest pure battery life can reach 242km；; The DM-p version has a pure battery life of 206km and a fuel consumption of 5.2L per 100 km under NEDC conditions.

Interestingly, although the new Han DM-i/p is equipped with a relatively complicated plug-in system, especially an engine, in terms of size, these two models are 5mm shorter than the previous generation Han EV, but other parameters have not changed, and the wheelbase is also 2920 mm.

In terms of configuration, the new Chinese DM-i/p version is the same as the EV version, which is equipped with a more intelligent DiPilot intelligent driver assistance system and rich intelligent, comfortable and convenient configurations and functions.

■　How to choose the new Chinese DM-i/p?

In terms of purchase, we see that all the new Han DM-i versions are precursors, while DM-p is a four-wheel drive, so there is only one option for the four-wheel drive power system. In the DM-i version, the "242KM flagship" with a price of 289,800 yuan is the most powerful and has the longest pure electric endurance. If you pursue the ability to travel, it is recommended to choose this one.

If we consider the configuration, first of all, in the intelligent driving assistance part, we can see that the "242KM flagship" and DM-p version have the most complete number of sensors and auxiliary functions, so if the configuration requirements for this part are higher, the "242KM flagship" is more cost-effective.

However, in terms of safety, comfort and convenience, the functions of the new Han DM-i series are already very comprehensive. If you want a higher-level configuration, I suggest starting with the "121KM distinguished model" with a price of 225,800 yuan, because there are many identical configurations on the "flagship model" on it, but the price difference is at least 64,000 yuan.

On the whole, the timing for BYD to launch a brand-new Han series is very good. On the one hand, because many heavy products of the same type have been delivered or listed recently, this market segment has become one of the focuses of attention inside and outside the industry. At this time, listing is easy to get better communication effect; On the other hand, it is the time when the brand announced the sales volume and delivery volume at the beginning of the month. BYD’s production and sales data in March performed well, showing excellent brand health, and at the same time boosting the confidence of many consumers who intend to buy BYD models. I believe it can also help the brand-new Han series to get more orders.

As for the specific model competitiveness, I think that Han EV, as the first "veteran" to enter the medium and large-sized pure electric car market, has kept up with the pace of market evolution in time after this update, and has renewed its vitality and maintained its strong competitiveness.

The brand-new Han DM-i/p series actually has no specific competitors in a strict sense. The medium and large plug-in hybrid cars on the same track with it are basically BBA brands of more than 500,000, such as BMW 5 Series plug-in hybrid and Volvo S90 RECHARGE. Therefore, the new Han DM-i/p series will gain more market opportunities and the sales volume can be expected.

　　Do you know where the waste lead batteries on electric bicycles and electric cars are? In Huai ‘an, Chen Mou and others bought waste lead batteries from Shanghai, Nanjing, Gaoyou, Siyang and Huai ‘an for illegal dismantling and refining lead ingots without any qualifications. According to the investigation by the Qingjiangpu District Procuratorate of Huai ‘an City, in less than one year, Chen Mou and others illegally purchased and dismantled more than 18,600 tons of waste lead batteries, and refined more than 9,349 tons of lead ingots, involving more than 100 million yuan, making illegal profits of more than 10 million yuan. According to the appraisal, it takes at least 20 million yuan to damage virtual treatment cost’s ecological environment. On the 7th, as the largest lead-acid battery environmental pollution case supervised by the Ministry of Public Security, 14 suspects, including Chen Mou and Zhang, were prosecuted by the Qingjiangpu District Procuratorate for alleged environmental pollution, and suggested that the court sentence Chen Mou and Zhang to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from one year to six months to seven years respectively.

　　When Chen Mou, 33, returned to his hometown in Huai ‘an for the Spring Festival in 2016, he hit it off with Zhang, who was also working in other places, and each contributed 300,000 yuan to start the recycling business of used lead batteries.

　　At the beginning, Chen Mou and others sold the purchased waste lead-acid batteries to a renewable resources company in Xuzhou to earn the difference profit. Later, Chen Mou and Zhang discovered that by doing so, not only did they not earn much money, but also the funds were slowly withdrawn. Chen Mou invited his fellow villager Hu to invest 500,000 yuan each to buy, disassemble and refine lead ingots. Because their business is illegal and they are afraid of being discovered by others, Chen Mou and Hu rented a remote abandoned factory in Yuanji Township, Huaiyin District, and used it as a dismantling factory for waste lead batteries. Then, they went to Matou Town, Huaiyin District and rented an abandoned brick factory to be a lead ingot refining workshop for waste lead batteries. Chen Mou and Hu bought stoves, blowers, models of lead blocks and other equipment together, and then contacted their fellow villagers to help, so that a one-stop production line of battery acquisition, disassembly and refining was built. Up to the time of the crime, Chen Mou and others illegally purchased and dismantled more than 18,600 tons of waste lead batteries, and refined more than 9,349 tons of lead ingots, involving more than 100 million yuan and making illegal profits of more than 10 million yuan.

　　In order to avoid the investigation by the environmental protection department and the public security organs, they covered the windows of each factory building with shielding nets, so that the inside could not be seen from the outside.

　　In September last year, the Huaiyin District Environmental Protection Bureau received a report from the masses that a factory emitted an unpleasant smell. After the staff of the Environmental Protection Bureau seized it on the spot, they felt that the case was serious. The Environmental Protection Bureau immediately contacted the public security organ, and the public security organ filed a case for investigation that day. More than 100 tons of waste lead batteries were seized on site. The case subsequently became the largest environmental pollution case of lead-acid batteries in the province supervised by the Ministry of Public Security.

Ethics in the Conflict of Modernity is a book published by the famous ethicist Mai gentile in the late nineties, which is an authoritative exposition of his philosophical thoughts. In this book, Mai gentile thinks that although the modern welfare state has made up for the disadvantages of capitalism to some extent and improved the living standards of most people, it has not fundamentally eliminated the greater disadvantages of capitalism, which often makes people tired and go astray in satisfying their desires, making it difficult to fully balance their interests and maintain a real cooperative life. Mai gentile hopes that people can think and study these problems, understand their social life, know how to negotiate and make correct moral choices, and become practical rationalists.

In this night when countless people revel in consumption, we hope that more people can understand the call of Mai gentile, examine their own desires and pursue a truly happy life.

Mai gentile: Modernity Suitable for Modern Moral Existence

What is the subject’s desire? How are these desires felt and expressed? How are they related to the subject’s practical reasoning? These problems have changed within the social and cultural order and between different social and cultural orders. Biological needs can be constant, but the objects to satisfy desires will be very different. In Edo in the 19th century, people ate sashimi to satisfy their appetite. In Bologna in the 19th century, people’s appetite was satisfied with salsa sauce. Today, Londoners, who have gained the advantages of many families, also appreciate these two delicacies. But no matter in the past or now, the way people learn to eat at the beginning of their growth will change greatly later. Other needs and demands will also undergo the same transformation. In different social and cultural order, people’s ways to meet their needs and demands run through all kinds of life, with different family and professional roles and corresponding goals, aspirations and hopes. As we mentioned earlier, our desires are always closely linked with our emotions, habits and beliefs, which show different forms in different lifestyles. If we want to understand what is the legitimate reason of desire, we must explore the various functions of desire in those lifestyles, which have the characteristics of the social order and cultural order in which we live, and this is the social order and cultural order of modernity. In this quest, we can mainly consider some obvious problems. Opportunities and hopes, security and poverty, regrets and lamentations, aspirations and other issues all show unique modern forms.These problems come from the continuous transformation of work and are the result of the development of economic modernity since the 18th century.

We start with the question of opportunity and hope. The social and cultural order of modernity, no matter what its form, is the result of long-term economic growth and technological innovation. This long-term nature seems to be indefinite, while the growth is sometimes slow, sometimes fast, sometimes continuous, sometimes disrupted, sometimes deliberately shaped, but in more cases it is unplanned. This growth often provides new types of jobs, sometimes provides people with new opportunities to become managers and professionals, and sometimes brings rich returns to those who can dominate others’ work and occupy their surplus labor value, which often makes workers tolerate the slow growth of wages. As a result, a new system has emerged and the old system has been transformed, and perhaps the most obvious result is that schools have become places to train children and teenagers into labor. In these changes, new types of inequality, new forms of class differentiation, new contradictions and struggles, and new goals of desire and ambition have emerged. We only consider three examples of different types of desire subjects. First, workers in the 19th and 20th centuries were generally employed in mills and factories. These workers are realistic. They mainly want to improve their lives and those of their families. They never want to leave the working class. Secondly, the contemporaries who pursued social and economic success (regardless of social background) had skills, imagination and luck, and wanted to go up through the class system to achieve the success recognized locally at that time. Finally, there are contemporary people with money aspirations. They started from some resources and pursued unlimited wealth. The past and present are not satisfied with this statement.

The first kind of stories are about working-class individuals and families, both of which are the political backbone of the trade union movement throughout its history. Such stories often illustrate the necessity of taking collective action. The second kind of stories provide material for novelists and some sociologists, from which we can study the career structure of the bourgeoisie and see the changes of people at all levels of management, such as engineers or lawyers or newcomers in accounting becoming big coffee in this industry. The third kind of stories are sometimes fables of the rich, but they often record cases of habit addiction, which is an addiction to money. These stories all tell the experiences of some individuals, families and groups. Their life motivation comes not only from ambition and hope, but also from fear of frustration and failure, fear of long-term unemployment and poverty, fear of being unable to get rid of the painful work pressure and fear of debt burden.

With these hopes and fears in the macro sense, individuals have formed the forms of love and hate, harmony and hostility, which make their specific desires, tastes, emotions and habits diverse, such as eating this and not eating that, spending time with these people instead of those people, doing things in this way instead of that way, and being willing to stay here instead of there. Only three types of life are mentioned above, but other types of life are also obviously subject to the hopes and fears brought by capitalism and technological modernity. If all these are carefully studied, we need to describe people’s living situations in large quantities, explain how the subject makes choices in specific situations at each stage of his life, and how to weigh the various objects of desire, that is, regard the satisfaction of some desires only as a means to satisfy others, think that some desires have a high priority compared with others, and may painfully or happily re-examine some of his past choices. If these subjects can reflect on how to best balance their desires and lives, what intellectual, moral and social resources do they have?

In fact, they always lack some urgently needed resources, partly because their thought patterns reflect the characteristics of their living situation and partly because of the constraints of their living situation. Let’s talk about the latter first. The common point of their living situation is that they have changed in different degrees due to the influence of capital flow. At first, capital flow may be creative and productive, or destructive, or both. When capital flow can promote the development and application of new technologies, its role is obviously creative and productive, which will lead to new forms of work, such as iron and steel smelting industry in 18th century, German chemical industry in 19th century, or American information technology industry in 20th century. Capital flow is also very destructive. For example, people in a very mature and stable production mode find that their products have no market, so they suddenly and unexpectedly lose their jobs, have no source of life, and sometimes cut off the way out of their whole lives. However, no matter what people’s living conditions are, the key problem of individuals and their families’ desires lies in the relationship between the salary income they earn and the prices of goods and services they pay. People can’t just think about "what I or we want" or "what I or we should get", but what I or we can afford.

When answering the latter question, people need to constantly evaluate the object of their desire and compare its market value, because the market will change according to the demand. But demand is to satisfy any desire that may exist, and it is the need of self-recognition when people happen to have enough money in their pockets at a certain time and place, whether these needs are real needs or not, and whether these desires are the desires that the subject should satisfy. Economic growth requires people who are engaged in productive work to become consumers. In this way, people who provide goods and services to these consumers shape consumers’ tastes, make their products the object of consumers’ desires, and make consumers feel that anything the economy requires them to consume is their own needs. Therefore, these producers and consumers must be able to distinguish between what is of real value to their lives and prosperity and what is the value induced by the market. However, the market society makes it difficult for working-class and middle-class people to think and negotiate together, which is necessary for them to make the above distinction in their daily decision-making. Why do you see it?

To answer this question, we first need to study the conflicts that have occurred in a long and tangled history, in which there are many obstacles, but as a result, they have promoted economic growth or provided the market with necessities of life. From the protection of traditional rights in the British enclosure movement in the 17th and 18th centuries, to the hand-loom workers’ opposition to the use of mechanized looms to maintain their survival, to the radical trade unions’ actions to demand higher wages and better working conditions, and to the protests of urban community organizations and organizers in Chicago and Boston in the 20th century. Many things in this history should have left a deep impression on us. One of them is that people trapped in this kind of conflict can easily express clearly what they oppose rather than support, and can find all kinds of unjust things sharply and accurately, but they can’t clearly explain the influence and function of these unjust things on the correct understanding of the concept of justice. Therefore, in the face of this constructive and destructive change of modernity, ordinary people trapped in this conflict can rarely think and find an appropriate alternative concept about the direction that social and economic changes should take for themselves, so that they can more fully evaluate the ideas that various political movements have firmly believed since the 18th century.

The problem here is that modernity is used to expressing itself in its own terms, which makes it extremely difficult for people to think about modernity without these terms, so they never leave these terms, and these terms exclude the most needed concepts in radical criticism, making them useless. Therefore, we need to explain the distinctive institutionalized activity patterns and thinking habits in those activity patterns, which enables us to answer two different questions, one is about the specific form and deformation of desire in the context of modernity, and the other is about the way of thinking about our activities and life, which is quite different from modernity, but it is an indispensable element to understand modernity. But before trying to make this explanation, I’d like to make a cautious remark, especially for readers who resent my negative views on modernity.

As far as it has experienced a series of social and political freedom and liberation movements against autocracy and oppression, the history of modernity is indeed a real and admirable history of progress in some key aspects. As far as its great artistic and scientific achievements are concerned-from Raphael to Roscoe, or from Palestrina to Schoenberg, and from Copernicus and Galileo to Feynman and Higgs-the history of modernity is indeed a real and admirable history of progress. What I have said here and elsewhere is not meant to slander. However, this same modernity constantly produces new forms of oppressive inequality, new types of material poverty and spiritual poverty, new setbacks and new misleading of desire. There are many very different stories about modernity, all of which are true, but they all need a unique political and economic framework as the premise.
