Driving brother: Run up to 1200 kilometers, and frankly say that "Driving is a job that truly reflects more work and more reward"

Flexible employment is one of the hot topics recently. According to the latest data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, as of the end of 2021, there will be 200 million flexible employment workers in China. Driven by information technology, a large number of new flexible employment needs and opportunities have arisen. Different from the characteristics of traditional employment relationships, all workers who belong to flexible employment relationships are classified as flexible employment workers. In addition to traditional flexible employment forms, with the development of new business formats, they also include a large number of takeaway riders, online car-hailing drivers, e-commerce live streaming hosts, online class teachers and other groups. Due to the flexibility of time, space and salary, these occupations are also increasingly favored by young people. Many college students choose to enter flexible employment platforms after graduation. In response to this group, the national level and the provinces have introduced corresponding support, encouragement and safeguard measures.

Liu Pengfei has been driving for almost 7 years. He goes online at 19 o’clock every day and goes offline at 4 o’clock in the morning. The longest online time is 14 hours. He can earn more than 20,000 yuan a month by working hard. During the Chinese New Year this year, his daily income is more than 1,000 yuan, which is the busiest time of the year.

Liu Pengfei, who had a job in a hospital before, talked about choosing to drive and why he could stick to it for so long. He said he liked this loose freedom, being able to get in touch with all kinds of people, and being able to drive all kinds of cars. "I have also met customers who offered me 30,000 monthly salary and asked me to be a full-time driver, but I refused. I like freedom and freshness."

entry experience

Resign from the hospital to be a substitute driver, the first step to joining the job is to take a road test

Liu Pengfei was born into a military family and was influenced by his father to choose to join the army after graduation. After the army changed his career, he was placed in a hospital in Beijing as an internal service, responsible for security work, and earned a good income. This job, which was considered stable by outsiders and a good unit, was "too comfortable" for Liu Pengfei. He felt that the day-to-day work with no upward path would make him "******". In his 20s, he began to do some side jobs after *** off work.

On the one hand, he chose to work as a substitute driver because he could earn more money, and on the other hand, he did it out of hobby. "Boys like cars. They can drive all kinds of cars and experience different driving feelings, which is very interesting to me."

Liu Pengfei introduced that when he first started working as a chauffeur, the chauffeur was a major offline company, and he needed to call a long time in advance. The master was relatively small, the cost was very high, and he could not receive a few orders a day, which was very expensive for the guests. In 2015, Didi started the chauffeur business and was attracted by the advertising. In August, Liu Pengfei registered for Didi chauffeur. He was the second batch of chauffeur masters on the platform.

If you want to be a chauffeur, the threshold is still relatively high. According to Liu Pengfei, the current entry process is that after the individual registers, the platform has advanced administrative review, confirms that there is no criminal record, no dangerous driving records such as drunk driving and speeding, and then conducts an interview. If you have a large area of tattoos, you will not be able to pass the interview. After passing the interview, you will also have to take the unified driving school road test, similar to the "Subject 2" test, which tests the driver’s proficiency in driving a manual car; after passing the test, you will go to the training service process. "We have regulations on each link from the first sentence we say when receiving the order, to the customer meeting to the boarding service, the start of the journey, and to the end of the order." After all the training, it will take about a week

Liu Pengfei found that with the deepening of people’s awareness of the rule of law, more and more people are called on behalf of the driver, and his income has also increased significantly. Moreover, by taking orders through the Internet, he does not have to worry about not having orders, and because of his good performance and service, he can receive more high-quality orders. In 2017, he quit his job as a hospital editor and dedicated himself to being a driver.

income level

Normally, it is more than 10,000 a month, and the farthest distance is 1200 kilometers.

The family did not know about Liu Pengfei’s resignation until two years later, when his father went directly to the hospital to find him without saying hello, his colleagues leaked the truth. Liu Pengfei said that until now, the family only knew that he was "running Didi" and did not say that he was a driver, because the old man did not understand and always felt that he would come out at night and come into contact with some drunk people, so he did not want them to worry.

"I didn’t think I would do it for so long, but I’m still very willing to continue doing it." Liu Pengfei said that the working hours are free, and he "comes out when he wants to, takes a day off when he wants to, and doesn’t have to clock in to work." And the more work, the better the income.

Liu Pengfei lives in Tongzhou District, Beijing, and every night around 7 o’clock, he will go online in places where orders are concentrated, such as Moon River and 1988 Town in Tongzhou, "because there are many good restaurants in these places, and business banquets are here. This is also our main customer group, because if it is a family dinner, many of them are driven back by the daughter-in-law." Then as the system assigns, he will go to Tongzhou, Beijing City, and even other places in the suburbs of Beijing.

"After working for so many years, I have never cancelled an order for personal reasons. For example, if it is too far away, I will go anywhere. Fangshan, Pinggu, etc., in my eyes, there is no place too far." At around 4 am, with the decrease in orders, Liu Pengfei went offline and rode his electric car back to his home in Tongzhou.

Once, a guest placed a driving order in Harbin, which was the farthest he had ever received, more than 1,200 kilometers. The guest needed to drive two cars back to Harbin as a wedding car, but only one person knew how to drive. The next morning at 7 am, Liu Pengfei drove off and drove to the destination at 10 pm. The whole journey took 13 hours. The guest insisted on buying a plane ticket for him to send him back to Beijing the next morning. Liu Pengfei earned 2,900 yuan for this order.

For drivers, there are obvious seasonal orders in a year, and more orders in winter. The busiest months of the year are the twelfth and first months. "From the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the daily income is more than 1,000 yuan; from the fourth to the sixth day of the first lunar month this year, I earned 3,500 yuan after running for three days." Liu Pengfei said that the income of driving is relatively good. Normally, it is no problem to earn more than 10,000 yuan a month. If it is a little harder, you can get more than 20,000 yuan. "The possibility of more than 30,000 yuan is a little higher on the Internet," Liu Pengfei said with a smile.

Work Story

Be invited to work full-time 30,000 monthly salary

Once bravely helped catch a car thief

As a substitute driver for many years, Liu Pengfei has not only met all kinds of people and driven all kinds of cars, but also encountered all kinds of things, including nobles and madmen.

One night in 2019, Liu Pengfei received a drunken driving order from Tongzhou to Tiantongyuan. He drove normally in the inner lane of the Fifth Ring Road according to the maximum speed limit of 100 kilometers per hour. There was a dispute between two passengers in the back row of the road. One of them was drunk and suddenly opened the door. At that time, there were two large trucks parallel to each other. The large truck in the middle lane almost collided with the large truck in the outer lane in order to avoid their vehicles. Liu Pengfei quickly stopped. "Who knew that after getting out of the car, the male guest who opened the door gave me two hits directly. He also said, ‘Why didn’t you stop if you asked you to stop?’ In fact, he didn’t say to stop me at all." Liu Pengfei said that another guest quickly apologized to him, saying that his friend had drunk too much to make such rude behavior. Liu Pengfei, who is more than 1.8 meters tall and has been a soldier, did not fight back, but just reported to the platform according to the process, called the police, and swallowed the grievance in his stomach. The next day, he accepted the mediation of the police station and refused the compensation of the other party. "He has a good attitude. There were two people the night before. I know he drank too much, forget it."

Another time, Liu Pengfei took an order to Tianjin at 1am. When he arrived in Tianjin, he found that it was raining very heavily there. After parking the car, the guest gave him an umbrella and asked him how to get back. He said he planned to take the first high-speed train back at 5am. After a while, the guest came back and said: "I went back to check, my daughter-in-law is not at home, you can come to my house to make do with the night." Eventually, the guest dragged Liu Pengfei home and cooked two packs of instant noodles. The rainy night was unforgettable to him.

On several occasions, because of Liu Pengfei’s good skills, good service, and discernment, guests asked about his background. When they learned that he had been a soldier and worked as a security guard in a hospital, they directly offered to "come to my company to work as my full-time driver," with the highest monthly salary of 30,000. But Liu Pengfei refused, "It is indeed more stable and high-paying, but I know what the purpose of my work is. I still like this sense of freedom. I can contact different people and take care of my family and children, so I refused."

Once, Liu Pengfei accompanied a fellow team member to the traffic team to deal with violations. With years of professional sensitivity, he saw two sneaky people on the side of the road circling a motorcycle, "I said these two must be thieves, so I parked the car in front of them, and when I saw them turn around and come back, I was basically sure. I dialed 110 directly, and the other party asked me for the specific location and how many thieves there were. During my call, they succeeded. One of them went back to ride their own car, and the other was about to get on the bus and leave. I told the 110 operator directly, I’ll catch it for you! 110 reminded me to do what I can, and if not, just wait for our police to arrive. I was afraid that if they ran away, I would go up with another master and press the thief there. We also checked his pockets to make sure there was no sharp knife or something like that, and then controlled and waited for the police. His accomplices later met and wanted to run, so I went up and dragged him down directly. He may have been scared silly at the time. "Later, they handed the person over to the police who rushed over, and also cooperated with the police station to make a confession. The police station said that he applied to the Chaoyang District Civil Affairs Bureau for a brave and advanced individual. Although he was not elected in the end, Liu Pengfei felt very proud.

Industry transformation

There is a new trend in driving, and the valet goes to the 4S store for maintenance.

Today, Liu Pengfei has become the captain of the driving team. He manages 60 or 70 masters, and the team has 200 people at most. New drivers will ask him if they don’t understand anything, and he will remind everyone to make more money online during peak periods. He also opened the account at Douyin and posted some interesting things he encountered in work and life.

After seven years of driving, Liu Pengfei found that his job had changed. For example, more and more people were doing driving, and the range of orders received was shortened from the previous 3 kilometers to about 1 kilometer now, but there were also many more customers. The people who called the driver were not only drunk, but also had services similar to "errands". For example, if they didn’t have time to go to the 4S store for maintenance, they called the driver to help. They also cooperated with Audi, Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, and Toyota stores, and the 4S store would pay to help customers call the driver for maintenance. Some second-hand car dealers would also use the driver to collect the car without delaying other trips.

When it comes to work testimonials, Liu Pengfei said that chauffeur is a real job that can get more work and more money, and as long as you pay, you will get a good return. Of course, pure physical effort cannot completely do the chauffeur work well, but also have a good sense of service and experience accumulation. Of course, there are not easy things in the work. You must be able to withstand waiting, accept bad weather and all kinds of customers. At this time, you must control your emotions and understand them as much as possible from the perspective of customers. You will accumulate regular customers for yourself, and ultimately benefit yourself.

According to the Beijing Youth Daily

Dear ifeng.com users:

[The sales list of new forces from January to June was announced, and the Qinjie M7 topped the list with nearly 100,000 sales]

According to the latest released data, the market performance of the new power model of Wenjie Automobile, Wenjie New M7, is particularly outstanding in the first six months of 2023. As of June 9, its annual cumulative sales volume has reached 96,500 units, ahead of other new power models, and firmly sits on the throne of China’s new power sales in the first half of 2024. This achievement undoubtedly proves the strong competitiveness of Wenjie Automobile in the new energy vehicle market.

What is even more eye-catching is the Wenjie new M7 Ultra, which exceeded 4,349 units in the first week of its launch, setting a new power model delivery record in China. This not only shows consumers’ strong recognition of the Wenjie car brand, but also shows the outstanding performance of the Wenjie new M7 Ultra.

It is understood that the new M7 Ultra was launched on May 31, with a total of four models, priced at 28.98-32 9,800 yuan. The new car is equipped with Huawei’s latest 192-line lidar (the same as the M9) as standard, which is the highest number of line lidar currently mass-produced. With Huawei’s mature ADS 2.0 high-end intelligent driving, there are few competitors in the same level of intelligent driving experience. This configuration will undoubtedly provide strong technical support for its future driving experience.

The analysis believes that the excellent performance of the new power models of Wenjie Automobile is due to its strong brand strength and product innovation ability on the one hand, and its precise market positioning and excellent marketing strategy on the other hand. With the launch of the 35,000 yuan limited-time car purchase rights, it is expected that by the end of June, the order volume of the new M7 will have a big outbreak. We have reason to expect that in the future market competition, Wenjie Automobile will continue to maintain a strong momentum and bring more high-quality products and services to consumers.

BYD Tang DM-P/EV Glory Edition went on the market: the price was lowered by 30,000-40,000 yuan compared with the old one.

On Monday morning, two major brands launched a new round of "price-for-quantity" scheme. Except for the new model L6, LI lowered the price by 18-30,000 yuan, and the price of SUV models was lowered by 20,000 yuan at the highest. These plug-in extended-range hybrid C-class SUVs have brought a lot of pressure to competing products, so the author is very curious about which competing products will take over first. I didn’t expect BYD Tang DM-p/EV to launch the glory version immediately afterwards.

BYD’s recently launched glory series new model is actually an official version. Let’s look at the price.

Tang DM-p:

  • The old model, the exclusive version of four-wheel drive costs 269,800 yuan, and the flagship version costs 289,800 yuan.
  • The new four-wheel drive exclusive edition costs 229,800 yuan, the flagship edition costs 249,800 yuan, and the Ares edition costs 269,800 yuan.

The original price of the four-wheel drive is lowered by 40,000 yuan, and the price of the Ares version is the same as the starting price.

This price may bring a little unhappiness to the old car owners. At the beginning, the purchase price of our Tang DM-p four-wheel drive flagship test car was 331,800 yuan, and only this version had a differential lock; Now the Ares version with a price of 269,800 yuan also has a rear axle differential lock, and the price is equal to 62,000 yuan. However, one thing is quite gratifying, that is, the new model only reduces the price without increasing the configuration. Compared with those recently launched cars with smart driving configuration such as laser radar and high-end car-level car chips, the change of Tang DM-p is not great.

The plug-in hybrid version of Tang DM-p can still be considered. It is already equipped with a three-engine four-wheel drive hybrid system, with a 1.5T engine and E-CVT as the front part, and the motor at the rear axle also has a maximum power of 200kW. Its 100-kilometer acceleration takes only 4.3 seconds, and its performance is quite strong. The pure electric cruising range of WLTC is also 189 kilometers, and the lowest charged fuel consumption is good. Therefore, this car is still competitive in the traditional plug-in hybrid SUV model camp, and its competitiveness will only be stronger after the price reduction.

Tang EV

The price of the pure electric version of BYD Tang has also been lowered and the range is not small. The specific standards are as follows.

  • The old model, the two-wheel drive exclusive model (600km) costs 282,800 yuan, the 730 km version costs 312,800 yuan, and the four-wheel drive flagship model (635km) costs 342,800 yuan.
  • Champion edition, exclusive two-wheel drive model (600km) costs 249,800 yuan, 730 km version costs 269,800 yuan, and flagship four-wheel drive model (635km) costs 299,800 yuan.
  • The new model, two-wheel drive exclusive model (600km) costs 219,800 yuan, the 730 km version costs 239,800 yuan, and the four-wheel drive flagship version (635km) costs 269,800 yuan.

After two rounds of substantial price reduction, the pure electric series was reduced by 33,000-43,000 yuan for the champion version, and 30,000 yuan for the glory version compared with the champion version.

Why is the price reduction of Tang EV so great?

This is about its drive system. The two-wheel drive version of Tang EV is a front-wheel drive, just like the plug-in hybrid version of Tang DM-i; However, the two-wheel drive models of middle and high-end pure electric SUVs are generally rear-drive, and the reason is not repeated here. In short, the driving quality of rear-wheel drive is better than that of front-wheel drive. The reason why the middle and low-end vehicles of fuel vehicles generally adopt the front drive structure is that the manufacturing cost of the front drive system is low, but the cost of adopting the rear drive for new energy vehicles is equivalent, so most new energy vehicle brands make the two-wheel drive as the rear drive.

On the contrary, the Tang EV exclusive series, which still adopts the predecessor scheme, is still not very attractive.

The price of the flagship version of the glory series four-wheel drive is 269,800 yuan. The performance of this version is very strong. It only takes 4.4 seconds to break the hundred, and the cruising range of 635 kilometers is not bad. However, the performance of BYD brand cars in terms of intelligence is not eye-catching. Even mid-range cars such as Tang EV don’t use car-standard chips that can meet the standard of 8155. Now, cars of the same class are popularizing 8295 chips whose performance is improved several times.

And the mid-range new energy vehicles are popularizing lidar, and BYD Tang has no application.

Therefore, this car looks more traditional, its pure electric version is generally competitive, and the sales volume of this series is relatively low; If you must choose this car, it is recommended to consider Tang DM-P.

Tianhe Auto editor, welcome to turn to praise.

Avita competes at SEV track in crossover fusion

On December 20, one year and one month after the launch of the Avita brand, the first batch of production cars of the Avita 11 and 011 were officially rolled off the production line at the Chongqing factory, and the delivery process will officially start at the end of this month.

At the same time, the "SEV" concept that the Avita brand has always emphasized, that is, the smart electric vehicle concept, is expected to further become a new subdivision track with stronger independence in 2023.

Avita CEO Tan Benhong believes that SEV should have three characteristics: new architecture, strong computing and high-voltage charging. For enterprises, the premise of realizing these three characteristics is the research and development and matching of software and hardware that consumes huge resources. At the same time, precise cost control and control of product development efficiency are required to achieve the core goal of fast and good. In addition, the construction of the marketing system is also crucial.

Adhering to the SEV concept, Avita 11 is equipped with an AVATRUST super-sensing system, which can precisely build a 4-layer independent sensing protection system, sense the surrounding environment in an all-round way, and escort the safe driving of the vehicle. At the same time, with the support of the AVATRUTH supercomputing system jointly developed by Avita and Huawei up to 400TOPS, Avita 11 can respond quickly even in the face of sudden scenarios such as "ghost probes".

In addition, under the support of Huawei DriveONE dual-motor four-wheel drive system, Avita 11 can accelerate at a fastest speed of 3.98 seconds, and is equipped with Ningde Times CTP ternary lithium battery pack, providing two battery life versions of 680km and 555km for users to choose from. With the assistance of 240kW high-power charging technology, Avita 11 can increase the effective battery life of 200km after charging for 10 minutes.

In terms of the construction of the marketing system, Avita has established a flexible offline marketing model of direct sales + partners, and has now exceeded the target of 200 stores. It has also successfully settled in the Huawei flagship store in Beijing Yintai Center and the flagship store in Shenzhen Bantian G District, narrowing the distance with consumers.

With the official launch of Avita 11 and 011, the first batch of Avita centers have also been fully opened in Chongqing, Chengdu, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Ningbo, Wuhan, Shenzhen, Huzhou and other cities, marking the important stage of Avita’s delivery sprint.

At the same time, Avita’s high-voltage fast charging and replenishment network is rapidly improving, and the first customized high-voltage fast charging station jointly built has been put into use in Shanghai. According to the scheduled plan, Avita will build more than 100 customized high-voltage fast charging stations in 19 cities across the country by the end of 2023, creating an extremely fast replenishment experience for users "charging for 10 minutes and replenishing energy for 200 kilometers".

Nowadays, the electric vehicle industry has formed a relatively stable development trend, and most of the existing brands that have entered the stable development stage have more significant personalized advantages, which also poses more difficult and more diverse challenges for newly entered brands such as Avita – how to ensure the comprehensive competitiveness and quality of products while expanding at a high speed? How can we quickly establish the reputation and recognition of the brand? Avita believes that horizontal integration and cross-border cooperation are wise choices.

From the very beginning of the brand’s establishment, Avita has brought together current players in the automotive manufacturing, ICT and energy fields, pioneered the CHN cooperation model, and jointly created a new generation of intelligent electric vehicle technology platform CHN. In the process of vehicle design and manufacturing assembly, Avita has received the support of Changan Group, opening a unique development path. In terms of intelligent technology and energy assembly, Avita has coordinated with Huawei and Ningde Times to achieve horizontal integration of resources in different fields.

Perhaps, horizontal integration and cross-border cooperation will be a trend in the automotive industry in the future stage. Avita will play a pioneering and innovative role for a long time by leveraging its first-mover advantage and leveraging the strength of three enterprises in Changan, Huawei and Ningde era. Continue to explore and move forward. "The automotive industry is destined to be a marathon without end. On this track, Avita will remain curious, explore the unknown and embrace change," said Tan Benhong, chairperson and CEO of Avita Technology.

While products such as the Avita 11 are currently positioned within the "premium electric vehicle" category, as the SEV segment continues to grow, more smart electric vehicles will target new tracks.

In this way, Avita will still face major challenges in the future. After the SEV track is formed, more and more smart electric vehicle companies will gradually launch a large number of models with similar categories and similar performance by virtue of their respective advantages in the capital markets or production and manufacturing fields, and establish an unprecedented market ecology in the new benign competition landscape. This is good news for consumers with more and more options, and also puts forward higher requirements for Avita and other brands.

It’s not a good idea.Conclusion:

The new energy of the automotive industry has become the future development trend. With the comprehensive intelligence and networking of travel modes, the new generation of passenger cars will also have the characteristics of platform, high computing power, and high-voltage charging. This will enable a rapid transition to SEV, or intelligent electric vehicles, providing consumers with a highly scalable, vehicle-wide upgrade, high intelligence, and strong battery life travel experience.
