Battlefield 2042’s refund petition has attracted nearly 190,000 signatures

   The negative news that "Battlefield 2042" has exposed one after another may no longer be considered news.

  When the game was first released in November 2021, Battlefield 2042 was on the verge of becoming the lowest-rated game ever on Steam due to a large number of gameplay issues, numerous bugs, and poor optimization. Since then, several small updates have slightly recovered some of the reputation, but only increased the game’s praise rate from 10% to around 30%.

Battlefield 2042's refund petition has attracted nearly 190,000 signatures

 

  The number of active players is a faithful feedback on the quality of the game. In the past four months, Battlefield 2042 has lost nearly 100,000 players on the Steam platform alone. Since February, the number of online players has only been four digits, lower than the predecessors Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 5. For a shooter game that focuses on multiplayer combat, such a loss of players is undoubtedly quite lethal.

  Unable to wait for an update that would revolutionize Battlefield 2042, players decided to resort to the most extreme measure: a refund.

  Of course, every game platform, from PC to console, has a refund policy. Steam requires players to make a request within 14 days of purchase and to play the game for no more than two hours. Console platforms have a more restrictive policy for digital games, unless there is a serious problem with the game, such as when Sony and Microsoft relaxed the refund policy when Cyberpunk 2077 was released.

  Under the influence of bugs and technical problems, many players were unable to experience any complete game during the refund period. It has become an inevitable demand of these players to call on the major platforms that released "Battlefield 2042" to relax the refund policy.

  In January, a person who identified himself as "Satoshi Nakamoto" posted a petition on the American petition website Change.org. The petition was aimed at the development team of the "Battlefield" series, DICE, the Steam platform, Sony, Microsoft, and the Federal Trade Commission, which protects the rights of American consumers. The goal is to obtain a full refund for players on all platforms where "Battlefield 2042" has been released.

  Battlefield 2042, the petition notes, is "a mockery of every player who bought a game because of EA’s false claims." EA and DICE released the game after failing to live up to a lot of their promotional promises, and their Battlefield 2042 was released in a nearly unplayable version. Four months later, the game still has a large number of bugs that seriously affect the experience.

  The author believes that "billion-dollar companies making unfinished games and publishing false propaganda" is a kind of "abuse" and "bullying" against players, which cannot be tolerated by the general player community.

  To that end, he said that if the petition received more than 50,000 signatures, he would contact some of the "best class action lawyers" to take EA and DICE to court.

  At first, the petition did not receive much attention. However, the official announcement of Battlefield 2042 to postpone the update twice in a row gave the petition a wave of help.

  On February 1, the official website of Battlefield 2042 announced that the first season of the major update will be released at the beginning of this summer, which means that players who have long been bored with the existing content will have to wait three or four months to play the new thing. The announcement also mentions several upcoming and undetermined minor updates, which plan to introduce features such as scoreboards, voice communication and player profiles present on all major platforms, although these features do not solve the game’s most lethal stability and gameplay problems.

  Battlefield 2042 removed the scoreboard for unknown reasons. Many players hoped that this simple feature would return, and officials have received feedback to put it on the update schedule. It is expected that an update of the actual scoreboard in mid-to-late February will also provide a conceptual graph that looks inseparable.

  However, on February 3, the official Twitter suddenly announced that the scoreboard, together with related minor updates, would be delayed until early March.

  Big updates and small updates have been released one after another, breaking the hearts of players. After February 3, the number of people who followed the refund petition on the Change website grew rapidly. In just one week, the number of signatures of the petition grew from 700 to hundreds of thousands. By the time of this article, nearly 190,000 people had participated in the petition. Including the US media "Newsweek", more than 240 news articles in the United States alone have followed and reported on the petition.

 Battlefield 2042 Petition: Why Players Are Right to Ask for Refunds

 

  When the number of signatories exceeded 120,000, the petition author updated a log. The log noted that he noticed that EA’s relevant agreement may have protected them from litigation, but he still felt there was a way to deal with it.

  There are no laws or regulations prohibiting companies from selling unfinished games as final products. If class-action lawsuits don’t work out, he will try to contact a U.S. senator to draft legislation that would create a "done definition" for paid games, protecting consumers from games that require high prices.

* "Definition of Done"

 

  Although the number of people participating in the petition has exceeded the peak of Steam players in Battlefield 2042, Change.org is just a petition website, which allows anyone to petition anonymously, and does not investigate whether the petitioner has actually bought the game in advance. It may express some expectations of the public, but it has no authority and actual legal effect.

  Even if the author of the petition is really the mysterious inventor of Bitcoin, "Satoshi Nakamoto", it is difficult to say that this petition will not end without a result. However, the views raised by the author in the petition and the dissatisfaction and anger of the players exposed in the petition should bring some kind of warning to the entire game industry:

  Not all games are called "No Man’s Sky". For a game to hit the shelves at the price of a full game, it is better to make a relatively complete game at the outset than to rely on countless subsequent updates to make up for the incompleteness of the game.

In the hour-and-a-half keynote speech, Apple lived up to expectations by unveiling its "big move" in AI strategy, Apple Intelligence, and releasing a series of software updates including iOS 18, iPad OS 18, Mac OS 15, and vision OS 2.

VisionOS 2 series of updates


Previously, in the warm-up video of WWDC 24, Vision Pro was very eye-catching. Mike Rockwell wore Vision Pro in the cabin, waiting to parachute into Apple Park with his colleagues. The camera also gave Rockwell a close-up, revealing a strong sense of publicity.

More specifically, Apple took the lead in introducing the first major software update to the Vision Pro headset released in February this year, visionOS 2, which brings a more immersive user experience.

Google AR glasses navigation related patents


Coincidentally, Google (GOOG.US) recently filed a patent entitled "Neural networks map-assisted inertial ranging technology for AR devices", patent number US 20240176419 A1, which aims to achieve more accurate AR navigation using two sets of "6 degrees of freedom" data.

Among them, the system will call up map data related to the physical environment, and combine the data captured by the camera on the AR glasses to determine the user’s actual geographical location and orientation (VPS). Google points out that these measurements will help even if the visual sensors are obscured.

Obviously, since Apple launched Apple Vision Pro last year, the entire XR industry has ushered in a new round of dividends, especially the AR industry, from capital to products to ecological construction, has entered a "boom period". According to recent data released by CINNO Research, AR has surpassed VR in terms of shipments.

In addition to surpassing VR in terms of shipments, since the beginning of the year, we can see that AR companies have also received good news for financing. At present, the market is expecting that the entry of giants such as Apple can drive AR to truly usher in a big explosion and get out of the cold winter. The most attractive thing in the visionOS 2 update is undoubtedly the expansion of the spatial photo and spatial video ecosystem.

WIMI holographic entry AI + AR trend


At present, in the current tightening of investment, many leading enterprises actively enter the market and promote AR growth, at the same time, public information shows that as a holographic AR * shares micro-beauty holographic (WIMI.US) in the face of market trends, based on the integration of AI and AR, greatly enriched AR application scenarios, especially in life applications, will make its use of AR convenience, accuracy has been significantly improved.

In fact, many AR manufacturers are increasing their technical depth and pulling more 2D applications into the 3D world. Based on this, WIMI Hologram has also launched many different forms of technology and product thinking. Therefore, in order to further enhance the market penetration rate of AR, WIMI Hologram is based on AI + AR, allowing the addition of AI models to open up new explorations in the XR industry, showing that AR manufacturers are actively expanding the market.

To some extent, the accelerated development of AI has also found a new direction for AR. Previously, a number of research institutions have released reports predicting that the XR consumer electronics industry will usher in a new round of development opportunities with the help of AI. This coincides with WIMI Holography. In the future era of space computing, WIMI Holography is expected to have a strong market performance based on AI + AR, which will show unique value and potential.

end


Apple’s popular product Vision Pro uses the system visionOS 2 "update, allowing the global AR industry to see the future. Moreover, Meta’s * AR glasses will soon arrive, leveraging its own advantages in the large model and XR field, expectations are full. At the height of the situation, some industry observers pointed out that the capital flow in the AR field is showing obvious signs of strategic adjustment, and capital is gradually concentrating on the head. In short, the AR industry will have a big jump from the hardware and content ecosystem, you can look forward to it.

Focus Interview Shu Consumption does not "nesting dolls" simply watch TV

  Turning on the TV to enjoy TV programs should be a normal and simple thing. However, with the popularization of smart TVs and Internet technologies, watching TV, such a simple operation, has sometimes become extremely complicated. In addition, once it is turned on, advertisements are everywhere, and if you don’t pay attention, you can register various members and recharge consumption, which has also led to a lot of "nesting doll-style" charging chaos. Faced with the pain point of "difficult to watch TV and annoying to watch TV", since August this year, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television has jointly launched a pilot program to "control the complicated problems of TV’nesting doll ‘charging and operation".

  At present, there are several sources of content that viewers see on their TVs, one is the cable TV service in various places; the other is the IPTV service that telecom operators are responsible for transmitting, both of which can be connected to the set-top box to watch live TV programs from CCTV or local stations. In addition, with the increasing popularity of smart TVs, although TVs themselves cannot directly watch live TV channels, people can order a large number of Internet programs on smart TVs. However, the increase in viewing content has sometimes made watching TV a nuisance.

  Previously, some users posted pictures of their home set-top boxes being turned on. From opening the set-top box to the appearance of the homepage screen, the shortest took 40 seconds, and the longest took more than a minute.

  After finally turning on the set-top box, I encountered the second problem: I couldn’t find the live TV channel’s page and free content.

  Free content is hard to find, the posters on the page are attractive, and some viewers also choose to watch paid content. But whether it is on-demand content in a set-top box or Internet content in a smart TV, people often encounter unexpected "nesting dolls" charges.

  There are even some items that are postpaid, deducted directly from the phone bill. Some people often order unwanted products without realizing it.

  Watching TV, which used to be a relaxing and enjoyable thing, has now become a time-consuming and expensive annoyance for many people. In recent years, complaints about the fees and complicated operation of TV "matryoshka dolls" have been on the rise, making it a hot spot for complaints about home appliances, according to the China Consumers Association.

  Zhang Dezhi, Director of the Consumer Supervision Department of the China Consumers Association: It was originally thought that the main reason was that elderly consumers could not operate effectively. We found that many young consumers are also troubled. In terms of charging, personalized service itself is a good thing, but if it cannot be effectively marked, it will bring a lot of confusion to consumers, and it will also be suspected of infringing on consumers’ right to know, choose and arm’s length transaction rights. Many consumers have given up watching TV.

  Since August this year, the State Administration of Radio and Television, together with relevant units such as the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the State Administration for Market Regulation, the Central Radio and Television Station and the China Consumers Association, has carried out the work of controlling the fees and complex operations of TV "nesting dolls", so that watching TV can return to simplicity and meet the needs of the public.

  Feng Shengyong, Director of the Network Audiovisual Department of the State Administration of Radio, Television and Television: The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television regards governance as a political project, a popular project, and a system project, and conducts governance in three stages. From the end of August to the end of October this year, it is mainly a pilot work.

  In terms of managing the complexity of TV operations, the first phase selected cable TV in Beijing, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Guangdong, and Shandong provinces and IPTV in Beijing, Jiangxi, and Gansu provinces for pilot use, simplifying the boot process and making it convenient for viewers to watch live TV channels.

  Yu Ying, Director of the Science and Technology Department of the State Administration of Radio, Television and Television: Through our comprehensive and exhaustive research conducted in the early stage, we found that more than 80% of cable TV and IPTV TV users watch live TV channels during 80% of their TV viewing time. In line with the principle of being able to change everything, the first is to turn on full-screen live TV directly as the default boot mode for cable TV and IPTV, requiring operators to control the boot time within 35 seconds, and at the same time do their best to optimize the function of the set-top box to achieve standby startup that can be as short as a few seconds, and provide viewers with a choice of boot mode, so that viewers who like on-demand, review and other services can choose independently.

  After the governance, in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, the situation that used to be slow to boot and could not find live broadcasts has now changed a lot. After the set-top box was turned on, it soon entered the live TV screen directly.

  In Beijing, Gehua Cable technicians went into the community to introduce the way to watch "minimalist TV" to the community residents.

  The complex work of governing TV operations has been promoted across the country on the basis of pilot projects in five provinces and cities. As of now, 80% of cable TV end points and 85% of IPTV end points across the country have been turned on to watch live TV channels. According to a third-party survey conducted by the China Consumers Association, through governance, more than 80% of consumers believe that the convenience of watching live TV channels has been improved, and more users have begun to return to TV to watch live channels.

  Song Qizhu, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairperson of China Radio and Television Network Group Co., Ltd.: The boot time of all upgradable cable TV set-top boxes in the country has been compressed to less than 35 seconds, all of which have realized the function of booting into live broadcast, and the proportion of live broadcast windows on on-demand pages has also exceeded 40%, strengthening the attributes of cable TV public services. Through governance, the cable TV industry has seen obvious results. The daily boot time of cable TV users across the country has increased by 4.3%, and the number of DAUs has increased by 6.21%.

  In addition to making watching TV easier, it is also necessary to make on-demand charges more clear. In terms of solving the problem of TV "nesting dolls" charging, the first phase of governance selected 7 pilots including Beijing Gehua Cable, which mainly aimed at three aspects: TV charging packages, charging subjects, and opaque charging.

  Feng Shengyong, Director of the Network Audiovisual Department of the State Administration of Radio, Television and Television: Looking at the task of reducing the charging package, there were 23 charging packages at the end point of a certain TV, and the content in each package needs to be paid. For example, the eight of the film and television categories are merged into one film and television VIP. Another particularly outstanding feature is that after the merger of these charging packages, the quality is basically improved without raising the price, that is, the existing users who buy small packages and spend less money automatically upgrade to watch the content of the big package, safeguarding the rights and interests of users. In the end, the reduction ratio of these 23 charging packages reached 78%, far exceeding our target of 40%.

  According to the governance requirements, all TV large-screen pages must have a free zone entrance on the first screen of the homepage; for single-piece paid content, the zone entrance should be set in the navigation bar; all paid programs must be clearly marked, and all purchased content needs to be set with a prominent unselect option. In addition, all application downloads must be concentrated in the "Application Center" and cannot be mixed in the content page. All subscription content can be inquired on the order information page. At present, all pilot units have completed rectification, and the seven pilot fee packages have been reduced by more than 50%.

  As of the end of October, according to a third-party survey conducted by the China Consumers Association, more than 80% of consumers in the pilot areas of controlling TV "nesting dolls" have felt that the convenience of watching free content has been improved, and 70% of consumers approve of the redesigned payment process. Clarity.

  After the first phase of the pilot, a series of experiences have been summed up in the complex work of controlling the charging and operation of TV "nesting dolls". From November to the end of next year, the follow-up phase of the governance work has begun and will continue to be promoted nationwide.

  Tang Ke, Deputy General Manager of China Telecom Group Co., Ltd.: China Telecom has actively implemented the work plan and has fully completed the upgrade and transformation of IPTV, optimized the user operation process, and improved the people’s TV watching experience. We will continue to deepen the upgrade work as required, and provide the general public with IPTV services with richer content and easier operation.

  Yu Ying, Director of the Science and Technology Department of the State Administration of Radio and Television: In the future, we will formulate a replacement plan for the situation that needs to be replaced by the set-top box to improve the user experience. We will organize the deployment of software with new functions to automatically display live TV signals when turned on, continue to promote the simplification and reduction of remote controls, promote the integration of TV set-top boxes, issue a series of standards and norms, and continue to promote government supervision, industry and enterprise self-discipline, social and mass supervision to ensure long-term sustainability.

  On November 3, relevant units organized a summary of the pilot work of controlling the complicated charging and operation of TV "nesting dolls" and a national promotion work deployment and promotion meeting to summarize the results of the pilot work of controlling the complicated charging and operation of TV "nesting dolls" in the early stage, and introduce the phased plan of national promotion. Watching TV is simpler and simpler, and what should be free is free. Only by making the charges transparent and reasonable can TV return to public attributes and allow everyone to better experience spiritual and cultural products.

Galaxy: Enough time for my love

p22657652_meitu_4

  No matter whether you are writing science fiction or popular science, or even in your daily life, the only standard for measuring everything in the galaxy is time and love. 

  "Time is enough for you to love." This is the name of a science fiction novel by American science fiction writer Robert Heinlein, and it is also the motto of the writer Galaxy. Whether it is writing science fiction or popular science, or even in his daily repeated life, his standard for measuring everything is only time and love.

  "Galaxy" is his pen name. It has nothing to do with "Galaxy Squad", and he doesn’t remember what it has to do with.

  "I just started writing something casually. Since I’m writing science fiction, ‘Galaxy’ has a kind of cosmic poetry. Later, I used this in registrations everywhere, and I’ve been using it ever since. It turned out that only my parents still called me by my real name. Later, due to the strong influence of the outside world, they also called me Galaxy."

  Born and raised in Beijing, Galaxy always speaks with a nice "son" voice.

  Today’s Galaxy can be regarded as a writer, but he still doesn’t know his monthly income, let alone how many job offers he has missed in the mailbox – he just writes and lives with great energy as always, and strives to fill every gap of time with love.

  Adolescent psychological science fiction 

  Galaxy’s parents are both teachers at Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. He has lived in Beihang’s family home since childhood. Although he was very naughty when he was a child, he was also active and quiet, and especially loved reading.

  Galaxy was born in science and engineering, and the reason why he embarked on the path of professional writing was just because he liked writing more. In 1991, Galaxy accidentally entered the class of the science fiction literature elective course offered by Wu Yan, a teacher at Beijing Normal University. Since then, he has officially become attached to writing, and quickly became one of the main forces of Chinese science fiction writing.

  Everything was difficult at the beginning. Looking back now, everything seemed to be going well again. But in fact, Galaxy in the initial stage did a lot of different jobs to support himself. He left home very early to live independently, and in the most difficult time, he didn’t even know where the money for tomorrow’s meal was. But despite this, he still put all the money he earned in the bank in the early years.

  "Just treat it as confiscated and earn it again tomorrow."

  He was often asked if his background in science and engineering, and later his career in science writing, was of great help. Galaxy’s affirmative answer was not surprising, but what was more refreshing was the analogy he used when answering this question: "Writing science fiction, you don’t know science, just like writing poetry, you don’t know rhyme – you can definitely write it, but I’m afraid it’s hard to write it well."

  Wu Yan called Galaxy’s work "psychological science fiction of adolescence" because Galaxy insisted on embodying the artistic essence of science fiction when creating, and the language characteristics were distinct. Although it was no longer young, Galaxy’s psychological state was indeed a first-class young man.

  Speaking of this, it is impossible to fail to mention Galaxy’s representative work "Duel on the Internet" created at the end of the last century. With this work, Galaxy won the "Science Fiction World" Galaxy Award in one fell swoop and began to attract the attention of the science fiction community. As Galaxy’s own online science fiction "electric shock" work, it not only influenced the first batch of Chinese netizens, but even today, there are still people who continue to discuss this novel. Chen Liufan, a young science fiction writer, said that he liked it very much after reading "Duel on the Internet" in middle school, and later embarked on the road of science fiction creation, which was also influenced by this article to a certain extent.

  While some people consider "Duel Online" to be China’s first "digital punk" work, Galaxy insists that the honor of China’s "earliest and best digital punk writer" should belong to Yang Ping. All he has done is expand the campus space to the Internet.

  sculptural writing 

  Galaxy told the reporter that when he was a child, he often read that great writers would revise their manuscripts over and over again, so now he has developed a similar "bad" habit.

  When Galaxy introduced his experience of revising the manuscript, he could not help but sigh, "So I don’t like editors to change their own sentences. However, excellent text editors nowadays will not touch your manuscript under normal circumstances."

  Such an author who "always has to do everything" can be said to be very worry-free for editors, but one of the things that makes Galaxy a headache for his editors is that he can never tell his writing progress. It’s not because of being lazy or losing manuscripts, etc., mainly because his writing order is not from A to Z, many times E, G, and L are bouncing around.

  "The editor asked me what the progress was. I couldn’t tell." He gave his original way of writing a name, "sculptural writing."

  "A piece of raw material is placed there, first a rough outline is formed, then it is processed in depth little by little, then it is depicted in detail, and finally it is completed as a whole. So you asked me what the progress is, I really don’t know."

  So before there were computers, the draft of Galaxy was often countless pieces of paper.

  "It’s much better now that I have a computer. Before the computer, when I finally finished the draft, I had to cover the bed with small pieces of paper, and all kinds of different sentences and paragraphs were put together little by little."

  And that kind of writing from beginning to end was named by Galaxy as "weaving writing" – weaving three meters today, five meters tomorrow, and the progress is very clear.

  One of the great advantages of the "sculptural writing" method is that it can maximize the use of his fragmented time. After all, he started his professional writing path with the idea of "no need to deal with people, independent creation, no need to work", and slowly found that writers also need to interact with people and travel everywhere. After determining the "bones" of the article, Galaxy will become a "sculptor", chiseling and carving here and there. This way of writing has proved to be very efficient and very suitable for him. In the past year, although he has devoted most of his energy to his life, he has still completed a lot of work.

  "Sculptor" Galaxy has published millions of words of works so far, including more than 10 science fiction novels such as "Online Game Allied Forces" and "Incomplete Magnetic Marks", medium and short science fiction novels such as "Time and Space Death", "Pilgrimage", "Duel on the Internet", "Take the Mind to Date", and more than 10 science fiction collections such as "Grasp the Left Fist Before Restoration", and editor-in-chief "Chinese Science Fiction New Generation Boutique Collection" and other collections. He has won the "Five One Project" Award, Soong Qingling Award, Bingxin Award and other awards. For Galaxy itself, there may be several awards that are particularly worth mentioning: in 1997, he was awarded the Galaxy Award of the Beijing International Science Fiction Conference; in 2007, he was awarded the "Popular Science Writer with Outstanding Contributions to Popular Science Editing and Creation"; in 2010, he was awarded the 5th Beijing Young and Middle-aged Artists’ De and Yi Shuangxin Award; in 2012, he was named the 5th National Outstanding Science and Technology Worker.

  Write a song "The Wheat Wave is Like a Song" 

  The first time he saw Galaxy was at a gathering of the Old Popular Science Writers Association, and Galaxy was invited to participate as a young popular science writer. As he talked with the older generation of Chinese popular science writers, he was completely free from the troubles of age or era differences.

  In addition to science fiction creation, Galaxy also created many popular science works. But in terms of writing the reportage of scientists, "Wheat Waves Like a Song" was an important turning point in Galaxy.

  Galaxy did not hesitate to receive the invitation to write a report for Academician Li Zhensheng. Although he had never written similar works before, he knew that he needed the opportunity to deal directly with scientists like this.

  The whole process of collecting and writing lasted for a long time. Academician Li Zhensheng himself, who was originally cautious about this, was very satisfied after reading the first draft. After reading this article, Wu Yan gave a very high evaluation: "I think that’Mai Lang Ruge Song ‘has achieved a breakthrough in language in Galaxy’s works. He already has the ability to accurately grasp the simplicity of language and operate different narrative speeds with this concise language."

  In the reportage "Wheat Waves Are Like Songs", Galaxy made full use of a large number of literary techniques such as crossover, insertion, fragment cutting and even space-time inversion. Wu Yan commented: "All these techniques make the work tactfully ups and downs, constantly ups and downs."

  "Literary" is a word he often mentions in his conversations with Galaxy. Whether it is science fiction or popular science, he has always insisted on this, specifically – "The beginning and end of popular science articles are very important, and there must be literary."

  Galaxy’s text is short and romantic, and it has extended the skills of science fiction writing to different types of literature. Galaxy admits that it has had various anxieties in the past, but now it has completely forgotten the reason.

     According to reports, pop superstar Taylor Swift and gossip boyfriend Matty Healy seem to have secretly conveyed their love for each other during their recent gigs.

  At the Time Tour concert in Nashville, Tennessee, on Friday, 33-year-old Swift looked shyly at the camera and mouthed: "It’s about you, you know who you are. I love you." Fans soon found out that Marty, the lead singer of The 1975, had said the same thing at a concert in the Philippines on May 3. "Marty and Taylor said exactly the same thing on different stages, and it killed me," the person who posted the video said. Confessing silently in front of tens of thousands of fans, what a pair of love geniuses.

  Marty Healy, who had traveled all the way to watch Swift perform in a VIP tent on Friday night, had been in Manila with his band the night before, apparently claiming the affair with Swift with his rendition of "She’s American." Although Swift and Marty did not announce their official romance at the concert as expected, it was self-evident that Swift and Marty came out of Swift’s apartment the next day to buy coffee accompanied by her bodyguards. Marty also took the stage to warm up Swift on Saturday night, and the two were photographed in the same frame for the first time in a car after the performance.

  Swift and Marty were rumored to be having an affair a month after ending their six-year relationship with the British actor Joe Alwyn. They had been dating for less than two months but were "madly in love," people familiar with the matter said. "It’s early days, but the two are very compatible. They first dated very briefly, almost 10 years ago, but the timing was not right."

  It is said that Swift and Alvin broke up amicably in February, so it is estimated that Marty and Marty should have started dating at the end of March and the beginning of April, not long before the news of the breakup was exposed. (Boob)

Unlike the "informal" rough design of traditional hardcore SUVs, the dark blue G318 fully demonstrates the sense of quality in every detail. For example, the seats of the whole car are also wrapped in leather, and materials are spliced on the legs, shoulders, and head support parts to bring a more comfortable driving experience. For example, the appropriate metal trim embellishment of the interior, door control buttons, and door panel soft material wrapping are designed to bring a more technological and luxurious experience.

On the third anniversary, the Great Wall Gun brand continued to explore the new world of pickup trucks.

August 18th is the third anniversary celebration of the Great Wall Gun, and it is also the global fan festival of the Great Wall Gun. You should know that although the Great Wall Gun is a young brand established only three years ago, it is enough to support the lineup of the "Fan Festival", and there are not a few fans behind it.

The Great Wall Cannon should be regarded as the first one in China automobile market to make the small mass category popular. Unlike cars, SUVs and other mainstream models, pickup trucks have a small share in China’s auto market. Before the Great Wall Gun appeared, pickup trucks were still equated with wagons.

Therefore, from this dimension, the great wall gun has brought a breakthrough, unprecedented and a classic success story to China auto market, while it has brought a brand-new consumption idea and car use idea to China consumer market. With the product labels of multi-function car and family universal car, it has expanded people’s understanding of pickup trucks, and gradually shaped the full-scene pickup experience that belongs to the brand of great wall gun.

Therefore, in this activity, it is not only industry experts and the media who cheer for the Great Wall Gun, but also many other circle representatives who have nothing to do with cars, including six circle experts such as mountaineering, fishing and cross-country, all of whom are "fans" of the Great Wall Gun.

At the scene, the Great Wall Gun not only released the brand upgrade plan of the Great Wall Gun, but also released the mountain and sea culture. This means that after three years of time, the Great Wall Gun will usher in an all-round upward advancement of the brand, bringing more and more users a more exciting pickup life, making the pickup truck truly an attitude and a spirit, and making the Chinese pickup truck culture truly carry forward.

When it comes to the fan management of Great Wall Gun, it does have its own set of logic. For Great Wall Gun, users are not only ordinary consumers, but also the most loyal partners of Great Wall Gun. Therefore, you will find that many things of Great Wall Gun want to create with users and listen to their ideas, thus giving the products more unique value.

To this end, Great Wall Gun has held large-scale brand activities such as measuring Mount Everest, Alashan Heroes’ Club and Luya International Championship for three consecutive years, continuously enhancing consumers’ awareness of pickup trucks. It also created the first Cheyouhui in the pickup truck industry, and 31 provincial teams have been established in the artillery alliance; Established the first exclusive APP in pickup truck industry-Great Wall Gun App, with 1 million fans at present, and built the pickup truck culture base camp in China with a fully upgraded digital user service concept.

There are quite a few car brands that hold fan festivals, but only a few of them are so successful. I wish the Great Wall Cannon greater achievements in its next development and vindicate China pickup truck!

The optional price of BYD Han’s new shallow interior remains unchanged.

   On March 23, BYD’s grey and light interior of Han Sky was officially listed. Its price and configuration have not changed, and an interior color named "Sky Grey" has been added. The grey-light interior of Sky will first be installed in the distinguished model of Han EV(| Inquiry) with long battery life, and consumers can choose it for free. Other models of the Han series will also add the gray-light interior option of the sky later.

   At the beginning of listing, BYD Han series models all came standard with brown interior, and only the top version models can be equipped with red interior. Although the brown and red colors used by BYD Han are quite eye-catching, consumers’ preferences are diversified after all, and it is difficult to satisfy most consumers with these two colors. On the other hand, many surveys show that China consumers actually prefer light-colored interiors represented by beige. Therefore, it has become an urgent problem for BYD to increase the interior color, especially the light interior color.

   BYD Han’s grey light interior of the sky was born to solve this problem. Although its name is "sky ash", its actual look and feel is more like beige. The front and rear seats, the instrument panel and the lower half of the door panel all adopt this new color, while the rest remain dark, forming a double-color effect in the interior.

After the grey sky, BYD will also add more interior colors including blue to the Han series models, so you may wish to look forward to it.

  Editor’s comment: BYD Han series models have strong product strength and continue to sell well at present. After adding the gray and light interior of the sky, I believe that BYD Han series models can attract more consumers.
