To be honest, you have to understand the car emperor.

This is the Slogan of ByteDance’s car information platform "Know the Car Emperor", which became popular in the early days by guiding car owners to publish their car experience. Now it is the top stream of car vertical content platforms, with two trump cards: short video and live broadcast.

According to some data, Knowing Car Emperor has been the largest car live broadcast platform in China as early as almost four years ago.

Investors are also concerned about the money-making opportunities brought about by the subversion of the old vertical websites of cars by Know Car Emperor-such as car home and Easy Car, all of which have been listed in the US stock market.

The latest news shows that investment institutions, including Sequoia China, KKR and General Atlantic, are ready to provide up to $800 million for Chedi to support its IPO.

General China of Sequoia invested in this round of financing, and contributed $400-500 million.

This makes the valuation of the car emperor as high as $3 billion.

Considering that the car emperor App has been online for less than 7 years, this is an amazing valuation explosion.

In contrast, the market value of car home currently listed on NYSE is about $3.5 billion.

This is also in line with the iterative law of automobile information websites-every time a new automobile information giant appears, it basically means a cruel reshuffle.

According to Byte insiders, the number of daily users who know Chedi began in October 2021, and has already surpassed car home and Easy Car.

This also makes it logical for investors to throw a lot of money in pursuit of understanding the car emperor.

From "auto channel" to the number one in the industry

Understand the prototype of the car emperor is ByteDance’s "today’s headlines" auto channel, which is actually closer to auto channel in the early portal era.

It is said that in August 2017, after being hatched by the commercialization department of ByteDance, it was officially launched to understand Chedi App.

Backed by the huge "flow pool" of today’s headlines, the number of users who know the car emperor is growing rapidly.

According to the "Autumn Report 2017" released by the mobile Internet data organization "QuestMobile" in October of that year, only two months after the launch of Chedi App, active user data has already ranked among the TOP5 in the industry.

At that time, car home ranked first, with 17.37 million active users, while Car Master ranked fifth with 1.28 million users.

From then on, it took only four years, and car home, who has been the industry leader for many years, was trampled under his feet.

This kind of overspeed development obviously makes Byte interested in splitting up the car emperor.

At the beginning of 2023, it was reported that Byte moved the employees who knew the car emperor to a newly established wholly-owned subsidiary.

In addition, it is said that employees who know Chedi have independent office space.

This makes the outside world believe that Byte may be preparing for the introduction of external shareholders until the spin-off and listing.

According to the information provided by the third-party enterprise inquiry agency, on December 21, 2023, the corporate legal person who knows the car emperor changed from today’s headline to "Xiamen Know Car Technology Co., Ltd.".

This shows that Master Che officially became independent from ByteDance.

According to the data, the major shareholder of Xiamen Zhiche is He Jian (holding 60% of the shares), who also serves as the president of Zhiche Di.

Until now, it has exploded to seek financing with a valuation of $3 billion, indicating that knowing the car emperor is one step closer to the final IPO.

Seize the short video outlet

"We really want to vote for you. After all, newspapers have been very supportive of our work in communication for so many years, but unfortunately, customers have not given any budget to the print media at all."

This is the feedback from a senior official of a newspaper in Beijing who personally led a team to visit 4A Company more than ten years ago.

4A company said that the customers of car companies gave most of the budget to the online portal, leaving no budget for the print media including newspapers, which also made it impossible to complete the delivery.

This 4A company’s attitude towards seeking advertising cooperation with newspapers is a microcosm of several major portals, such as Sohu, Sina, Tencent, Netease and Phoenix, which became the mainstream automotive information platform at that time.

The "auto channel" of these websites, with large traffic, fast communication speed and various forms (there have been some test drive videos), completely subverts the information dissemination mode in the era of print media, and also makes it difficult for traditional print media to obtain business cooperation opportunities.

In the era when the portal website auto channel is booming, employees are busy.

A person who once worked as a "car editor" in a portal website said that he had been on a business trip for several weeks and participated in various test drives and release activities organized by car companies. "I had to ask my wife to send my change of clothes to the airport, and I changed my clothes and flew to the next destination."

However, almost at the same time as the popularity of the portal website auto channel, automobile vertical websites are sought after by more and more users because they can provide more focused and professional content.

In 2000, Easy Car was founded, and car home was founded five years later.

The establishment of these two representative websites indicates the arrival of the era of traffic segmentation.

In other words, these two websites can provide more professional content, and users are more accurate and more valuable to car companies.

So the balance of traffic began to gradually shift to such vertical websites as Easy Car and car home.

Auto channel, a web portal, was subverted by car home and Easy Car.

From the establishment of car home in 2005 to the launch of Know Car Emperor APP in 2017, it can basically be regarded as the golden age of car home and Easy Car.

In 2017, car home’s net revenue was 6.2102 billion yuan, up 4.2% year-on-year, and its net profit reached 2.0016 billion yuan, up 63.0% year-on-year.

Another vertical website giant, Easy Car, earned RMB 8.751 billion in the same year, up 51.6% year-on-year, and its gross profit for the whole year was RMB 5.517 billion, up 49.3% year-on-year.

Car home’s forum is an epoch-making product form, which provides a platform for car owners to communicate and interact.

This also shows that the content produced by users is becoming the value core of the automobile information platform.

When the mobile Internet emerged, after the car-savvy emperor exploded in the form of short video of UGC (User Generated Content), he was caught off guard by car home and Easy Car-the latter two are basically products of the PC era.

In fact, almost no forum products in the automotive field have been successfully copied to the mobile platform.

Understand that the car emperor has done this through short video outlets.

This makes it the latest subversive of automobile information platform.

At present, auto channel, the portal website, has basically lost its influence, and even car home has experienced a slowdown in business growth-the annual revenue in 2023 was 7.18 billion yuan, up 3.5% year-on-year, and the adjusted net profit was 2.159 billion yuan, down slightly year-on-year.

Knowing that Chedi has not announced specific revenue, it continues to make great strides in user growth.

In October, 2023, according to QuestMobile’s data, the daily growth rate of Knowing Car Emperor reached 57% in the past two years.

This may be related to the "empowerment" of today’s headlines-the automotive content published by users on today’s headlines will be automatically synchronized to the car-savvy emperor.

"online celebrity" is shaking the financial resources of knowing the car emperor

Corresponding to the iteration of automobile information platform, the relationship between it and automobile enterprises (dealers) has also experienced the change from cooperation to game.

In the early days of the portal, the cooperation between car companies and "auto channel" was mostly advertising and activity cooperation (various car forums or summits).

However, with the growing influence of the portal, its commercial value in new car sales leads began to stand out.

In other words, if you bring the address or contact information of the 4S store at the bottom of auto channel’s article, you can "drain" the relevant stores.

This may be the earliest way of selling "sales leads" about the automobile information platform.

However, it is Easy Car and car home that really carry forward this business model.

The reason is that they have more accurate traffic than portals.

Based on this, these vertical websites began to build professional products around sales leads.

More than a decade ago, the sales lead products promoted by automobile vertical websites to 4S stores were as high as hundreds of pages, detailing all the details such as clue acquisition and transformation.

This is also the biggest financial resource for car home and other vertical websites.

According to car home’s 2023 annual report, the number of cooperative dealers in that year exceeded 26,000.

In Q1 this year, car home’s clue service revenue was 726 million yuan, accounting for 45.1% of the total revenue of 1.609 billion yuan, exceeding media revenue (327 million yuan) and online marketing and other income (555 million yuan).

Now I understand that after Che Di became the traffic king of the automobile information platform, he also "inherited" the clue business model.

The bridge section of "the boy who kills the dragon will eventually become a dragon" is staged in this cycle, and the car emperor has become the latest "boy who kills the dragon".

However, the effectiveness of this business model is increasingly questioned by car companies.

At the beginning of this year, brands such as Wenjie and Zhijie under Huawei HarmonyOS Zhixing stopped "cooperating with members who know Car Emperor, car home and Easy Car".

This kind of recharge "member" is actually a sales lead product.

According to statistics, the annual membership fees of Easy Car and car home sold to dealers in 2024 both exceeded 200,000 yuan.

In 2019, due to the 20% increase in the membership fee of car home, many automobile dealer groups including Express Group and Zhongsheng Group suspended their cooperation, and the market value of car home once evaporated by 1.8 billion US dollars.

At that time, Li Hong, the president of Express Group, said through social media that "when a vertical website started from a car dealer was growing, it actually wanted to rely on monopoly to encroach on food", aiming at car home.

In 2023, Knowing Car Emperor upgraded the cooperation mode of members to CPS mode (Cost Per Sales), which triggered the anxiety of dealers.

Some dealers believe that this settlement mode leads to uncontrollable budget and refuses to cooperate.

After learning about Che Di, he released a letter to the dealers’ partners, saying that it was necessary to provide subsidies for dealers and reduce the burden on the industry, and this matter gradually subsided.

The suspension of cooperation between HarmonyOS Zhixing and the automobile vertical platform highlights the expensive nature of clue fees.

Some car companies or brands that implement the direct sales model even spend huge sums of money to build a clue acquisition and transformation system.

A few years ago, a brand of new power hatched by a car company in the north once spent tens of millions of yuan to build a clue system directly facing users according to the characteristics of the company.

The original intention of this system is not to "understand the car emperor", but to provide differentiated experience by directly serving users.

But in the objective effect, this model is equivalent to getting rid of the clues of the automobile information platform.

Moreover, as the cost of clues becomes more and more expensive, it also makes related car companies overwhelmed.

Recently, at the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Auto Show, Yu Chengdong, managing director of Huawei, said that it was related to saving marketing expenses when talking about the creation of personal IP by car CEO.

Other car companies have also confirmed that this model can indeed bring about transformation.

According to Zhang Yong, CEO of Nezha, since the listing of Nezha L, the demand for orders has been in short supply, and "half of the credit is attributed to Lao Zhou"-Lao Zhou is Zhou Hongyi, which recently triggered the internet craze by criticizing Zhang Yong, promoting Nezha Automobile to learn from Lei Jun, and promoting Nezha Automobile to change its name, which also proved that the "online celebrity" effect can indeed be transformed into sales leads.

This makes the "clue" value of the automobile information platform represented by knowing the car emperor decline.

In addition, even "I really have to understand the car emperor" is being questioned.

At the end of 2023, the "2023 Winter Test of Knowing Car Emperor" released by Knowing Car Emperor showed that the endurance achievement rate of the extended range version of the M7 was only 31.6% in severe cold conditions, ranking first from the bottom among all test models.

Yu Chengdong said that this is "cheat people’s test, misleading people!"

Geely and Great Wall also questioned the test results of Che Di.

Relevant car companies said that the test of knowing the car emperor was warmed up for a long time before departure, which consumed a lot of electricity and did not conform to the real use scenario of users.

According to some data, the relevant evaluation of knowing the car emperor has been questioned for many times.

This erodes the content advantage of knowing the car emperor.

However, the status of the first traffic platform in the automobile circle, the valuation of up to $3 billion, and the financing of up to $800 million show that at least before the official listing of the capital market, knowing the car is attractive enough for investors.

Response to the epidemic: China blocked nearly 60 million people and other countries may not be able to achieve it.

  On the evening of January 30th, local time, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization, held a press conference in Geneva, Switzerland, explaining that the pneumonia epidemic in novel coronavirus has constituted a "public health emergency of international concern". Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus stressed that WHO does not approve or even oppose a travel or trade ban on China.

  Since the outbreak, the international community has paid close attention to it. China’s response has won praise from the world, and countries have acted quickly to overcome the difficulties.

  The China system is very effective.

  "The challenge is enormous, and China’s response is impressive." According to the BBC website, Michael Ryan, Executive Director of WHO Health Emergency Project, praised China’s response to the novel coronavirus epidemic.

  CNN said that the China administration’s response to the epidemic was unprecedented and may not be realized in other countries — — China has imposed a blockade on nearly 60 million people and imposed full or partial travel restrictions on more than a dozen cities in Hubei Province. Major cities have launched the highest level of emergency response, set up checkpoints on roads, and screened passengers at airports and railway stations … … CBS reported that China launched an all-out campaign to fight the epidemic. Doctors treated patients day and night, and the military arrived in Wuhan to provide material support.

  Spain’s "National News" website noticed that in Wuhan, a hospital was completed in less than 10 days, and the second emergency hospital also started construction.

  "The China system is very effective in a crisis situation. It can take measures that require strong human and material resources and a well-functioning hierarchical system. " In an interview with the German newspaper Le Monde, China of Bertelsmann Foundation and bernhard Barchi, a senior expert in the Asia-Pacific region, commented on China’s initiative.

  Zhou Rui, chairman of the French "Bridge" think tank and an expert on emerging economies, pointed out that at a critical juncture, China chose to close almost the whole of Hubei Province — — Almost equivalent to the size of France — — It has protected all countries in the world from the greater intrusion of the epidemic.

  The World Health Organization praised that China has always adhered to the principle of openness and transparency, released information in a timely manner, quickly identified viruses and shared gene sequences, and adopted decisive and effective measures to control the spread of the epidemic, which not only reflected a high degree of responsibility for the lives and health of its own people, but also strongly supported global disease prevention and control.

  Open and transparent to overcome the difficulties

  In addition to taking extraordinary measures to prevent the export of cases, China identified pathogens at an unprecedented speed and shared the relevant virus gene sequences with the World Health Organization and other countries for the first time, which made it possible to develop a rapid virus detection tool.

  According to Reuters news, the Russian Consulate in Guangzhou revealed that Russia and China are cooperating to develop a coronavirus vaccine.

  According to the website of the Sydney Morning Herald, Australian scientists are the first to cultivate novel coronavirus outside China, hoping that this breakthrough will speed up diagnosis and help vaccine research and development. According to the report, it is expected that the cultivated virus will be used for antibody detection, so that the virus can be detected when the patient has not developed symptoms and therefore does not know that he is carrying the virus. It will also be used to test the effectiveness of experimental vaccines.

  The Financial Times website reported that in China, Clover Biopharmaceutical Company plans to develop a vaccine based on the key protein in coronavirus, and put a candidate vaccine into trial in just a few weeks. The goal of the Oslo-based Innovation Alliance for Epidemic Prevention is that at least one candidate vaccine that can prevent coronavirus infection can be put into the first phase of clinical trials within 16 weeks to test the human tolerance to it.

  "The search for vaccines benefited from the decision of the China government to release detailed information of coronavirus as soon as possible, which enabled scholars and pharmaceutical companies around the world to study its genome sequence." The Financial Times website pointed out. Russian newspaper quoted Russian officials and experts as saying that China showed unprecedented openness, which greatly helped disease research. According to the Guardian, compared with the SARS period, China is developing in a more open direction.

  Take the initiative to ease concerns.

  Whether the epidemic will have an impact on the world economy in 2020 has aroused widespread concern.

  In an article published on January 30th in The New York Times, USA, "The world quickly realizes how dependent it is on China", it is pointed out that now, Japan is preparing for possible shocks, and the Federal Reserve is "closely watching" the changes in the situation. As the world’s largest source of tourism revenue tightens its borders, hotels and travel agencies all over Asia are worried.

  However, many people remain optimistic. The article on the website of the Financial Times pointed out that no epidemic has caused a long-term reversal of market trends. The market rebound in 2003 was swift and violent. The global stock market rose by nearly 30% for the whole year.

  Jennifer mckeown of the London Consulting Group also believes that the global economic growth in the second quarter of 2003 dropped by a full percentage point due to the epidemic of SARS. However, it quickly made up for the fundamentals of the economy, and it is difficult to list any lasting damage caused by SARS to global economic activities and global GDP.

  China’s initiative has also eased the world’s worries. CNBC, an American financial website, said that after China took stricter measures and set up a high-level leading group, investors’ panic seemed to be ebbing. Bank of America, an investment bank, said that in the new crisis, China has been more proactive in updating the situation. To some extent, China’s response eased the concern that the epidemic might have a serious global impact.

  The world has confidence in China. As Singaporean Foreign Minister Wei Wen said, compared with the fight against SARS in 2003, China’s technology, experience and ability to meet such challenges have been significantly improved. New Zealand is full of confidence that China will finally defeat the novel coronavirus epidemic.

  Dr Jeremy Faller, chairman of Wellcome Foundation and an infectious disease expert, said: "China is setting a new benchmark for the response to the epidemic, and we should thank China." (Reporter Zhang Hong)
