Not long ago, I published a test drive post about BYD, sharing with you in detail the advantages and disadvantages of the 2021 Tang DM, as well as the benefits of driving it by car, and also introduced my hometown Ningbo to you by the way. Because I am usually busy shooting videos and handling online store business, I don't pay much attention to the field of automobiles, thinking that domestic cars are still in the stage of "stack configuration", but after experiencing Tang DM this time, I have a new understanding of my own brand. In terms of core technology, I don't know how other independent brands have developed, at least what I learned about BYD really amazed me.
BYD's current Sandian technology has independent intellectual property rights, and can also independently produce the key parts required for new energy vehicles - IGBT chip semiconductors, so this may also be the main reason why it can become a new energy "big brother". Including the blade battery technology and super hybrid technology (DM-i) that I learned, they are also very powerful. Therefore, when I saw BYD's latest promotional film "China Dragon All the Way Forward", I also had a lot of feelings, plus I have more or less experience in tourism, this short film also involves three attractions worthy of everyone's travel, let's analyze the deep meaning of the three scenes of the short film.
The high-altitude beauty is worth seeing, and the story behind it is even more worth knowing
The first scene of the promotional video is that I myself want to punch in the Panlong Ancient Road, but because of various reasons, my travel plans have also been disrupted, and the Panlong Ancient Road is also one of my current regrets. The attraction of the Panlong Ancient Road is that the altitude (4100 meters) and many curves, according to the statistics of more real donkey friends, 30 kilometers of the journey has been bent more than 600 times, of which 180 degree bends abound, and even 270 degrees of sharp turns, Panlong Ancient Road is also ridiculed as "today you have walked all the curves in your life, and life has been a smooth road ever since." Today's Panlong Ancient Road is indeed beautiful, but in the state of high plateau hypoxia, it is difficult to build such a road, and the difficulty can be imagined.
I think BYD will take the Panlong Ancient Road as the first scene, which may be a metaphor for the situation faced by BYD and even the entire Chinese brand at the beginning of its entrepreneurship. Plateau hypoxia is equivalent to the key technology being "stuck in the neck", such as the key component required for new energy vehicles - IGBT chip semiconductors, and this core component has long been monopolized in the hands of a few foreign companies such as Infineon, Fuji Electric, and Mitsubishi. Even if you want to spend money to buy, you must also look at the "face" of others, even if you buy it, others will not be able to share the technology. AS EARLY AS 2002, BYD set up a chip semiconductor research and development team, in 2009, BYD IGBT was identified by the national scientific and technological achievements. By 2019, by-one BYD IGBT chip semiconductor market share has reached 18%, truly mastering the core technology in their own hands to avoid being "stuck in the neck". It is precisely because of BYD's achievements in the field of new energy vehicles that it has even attracted veterans such as Mercedes-Benz and Toyota to seek joint venture cooperation, and is based on complete reciprocity, providing parts and technical support, so that Chinese auto brands have won the respect of the world for the first time with technology.

There are always difficulties, and surviving the past is a smooth road
After 1 minute, the picture shifts to the "secret place of western Sichuan" - Ganzi, Sichuan, which is Ding Zhen's hometown and photographer's paradise. The beautiful scenery is everyone's first impression of Ganzi, Sichuan, where there are no shortage of mountains, grasslands, Tibetan villages, both natural beauty and local characteristics. But the greater feature of Ganzi is that the short-term height drop difference reaches 550 meters, and this rapid increase in altitude is the most test of people's adaptability.
And the rapid increase in altitude of Ganzi is similar to my previous feelings about Tang DM, and BYD gives me the feeling that this car company is growing too fast. Breaking the monopoly of IGBT chip semiconductors is only one of them, and more importantly, BYD has achieved "no one has me", such as BYD's self-developed and self-produced blade battery.
The power battery is the core of new energy vehicles, and BYD's blade battery uses lithium iron phosphate technology, which has the advantage of longer cycle life and higher safety. BYD has increased the volume utilization rate of blade batteries by 50% through special arrangement, in other words, blade batteries can increase endurance by 50%, such as once only 400 kilometers, now can run 600 kilometers. More importantly, the blade battery in the "acupuncture experiment" performance of no open flame, smokeless, the words "spontaneous combustion, deflagration" and other words completely erased from the dictionary of new energy vehicles.

In addition to technology, another fact of BYD's rapid growth lies in the market value, by the end of 2020, BYD's market value has reached 530.1 billion, surpassing Ford and Mercedes-Benz, second only to Tesla, Volkswagen, toyota three giants. In just 26 years, BYD has gone through the development process of overseas veterans for decades or even hundreds of years. Moreover, BYD started from Shenzhen and has grown into an international enterprise spanning the four major industries of electronics, automobiles, new energy and rail transit, and is even the only car company in the world that masters the core technology of the whole industry chain of new energy vehicles such as batteries, motors, IGBTs, and electronic controls.
The powerful BYD has witnessed the rise of Chinese cars
The third picture of the promotional video is the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, compared to the bitterness of the previous development, I think the last point that BYD wants to transmit to everyone is confidence. From the perspective of a travel blogger, I highly recommend that you take a look, the artificial island, the undersea tunnel, and the three waterway bridges are all worth punching. And there are many stories behind the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Cross-Sea Bridge, which is 55 kilometers long, has a number of the world's largest, known as "one of the Seven Wonders of the World", is the longest time-consuming, most investment and most difficult project in the history of architecture. The most important thing is that Chinese repaired by himself, so today's China has self-confident capital. The independent brands led by BYD have significantly improved in all aspects of the automotive industry. As for where do you want to ask BYD's promotion?
Back to 10 years ago, even 5 years ago, no one dared to think that the price of self-owned brand cars could break through the "ceiling" of 200,000. But now BYD Han has done it, as a new energy medium and large car, BYD Han starting price has reached 219,800, more importantly, BYD Han listed in a short period of time the monthly sales have exceeded 10,000, truly recognized by the market, completed the Chinese car company brand upward difficult task, and even injected a shot in the arm for Chinese car companies; secondly, BYD released the DM-i super hybrid system this year, and 3 new cars equipped with the hybrid system, taking Qin PLUS as an example, under the blessing of Xiaoyun - plug-in hybrid special 1.5L high-efficiency engine (thermal efficiency 43.04%) and blade battery, Its power loss and fuel consumption is only 3.8L/100km, which is really comparable to the hybrid technology of Japanese cars. The rise of "crazy" BYD stocks and the sale of "crazy" BYD cars show that the market recognizes BYD, and BYD is also achieving the goal of "overtaking in curves" step by step.
Write at the end
To be honest, at first, I didn't know much about BYD, or about Chinese cars, but since I came into contact with BYD Tang DM and learned more about this promotional video, I began to really feel the transformation from "Made in China" to "Made in China". This propaganda film seems to be only BYD's enterprise propaganda film, but in fact, it also reflects the country's development history, in the face of international external pressure and challenges, China embarked on the road of self-reliance and self-reliance, creating a history of economic development, from a "poor and white" country to the world's second largest economy. Bydir's three electric technology is also completely independently developed by BYD, and the blade battery that can do not spontaneous combustion is also from BYD, as well as Qin PLUS, which is equipped with super hybrid technology and has a range of up to 1100 kilometers, and it is with these technological breakthroughs that Chinese cars have a strong foundation.
