1. The 2021 global lidar ranking is released: China Sagitar Juchuang, DJI, Huawei, Hesai Technology and Tutton 5 manufacturers on the list.

Lion's Review: Yole Developement, a world-renowned market research and strategy consulting company, released the "2021 LiDAR Application Report in the Automotive and Industrial Fields", showing that Among the lidar R&D manufacturers, Valeo ranks first, accounting for 28% of the market. Sagitar Juchuang ranked second, accounting for 10%.

Lidar only began to rise with autonomous driving from 2014 to 2015, global manufacturers are at the same level, Chinese manufacturers are not lagging behind, and in some areas China is still in a leading position.

By 2026, the lidar market for automotive and industrial applications is expected to reach $5.7 billion. The advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) segment is expected to reach 41% of the market share, making it the largest segment of lidar.

2, "sound QR code" is coming, recently, Alibaba Cloud intelligent IoT announced its thousand miles of sound 2.0 service new upgrade, and launched a new product of Alibaba Cloud wisdom - intelligent sound code service.

Lion review: The core of smart sound code is a patented technology of high-frequency sound wave codec, which can be commonly understood as "two-dimensional code of sound", which can create a new perception mode for smart devices and upgrade new scenarios for voice services.

Smart sound code has the advantages of one-to-many distribution, what you hear and see is what you get, cross-screen interaction, and is not affected by light and noise factors.

"Smart sound code" technology lays out new consumption scenarios, and pays more and more attention to providing services for merchants, thereby providing traffic conversion between merchants and users. By empowering the payment scene, improving the interactive marketing ability of the scene, and opening up new commercialization and revenue channels for the payment scene, it will become a "subversive all-media marketing tool for the payment scene".

3. Recently, ByteDance announced organizational adjustments, the implementation of business line BU, the establishment of six business sectors: Douyin, Vigorous Education, Feishu, Volcano Engine, Sunrise Lightyear and TikTok.

After Zhang Yiming stepped down as CEO, ByteDance was launched for the first time, and the organizational structure was greatly adjusted

Lion Review: With byteDance's new round of organizational upgrades, Liang Rubo has officially taken over as CEO of ByteDance and is fully responsible for the overall development of the company.

ByteDance will merge today's headlines, watermelon video, search, encyclopedia and domestic vertical service businesses into Douyin. This segment is responsible for the overall development of the domestic information and services business. TikTok is responsible for the TikTok platform business, and also supports the development of extended businesses such as overseas e-commerce.

In May this year, Zhang Yiming said that he and Liang Rubo would complete the transition of byteDance's CEO responsibilities by the end of 2021. This organizational adjustment means that the handover has been completed as scheduled.

At present, ByteDance employs more than 110,000 people worldwide and covers more than 150 countries and regions. The latest organizational adjustments are based on business needs, "to be mission-driven, always entrepreneurial, keep the organization flexible and efficient, and stimulate creativity."

In April and October, a total of 43 investment and financing events occurred on the industrial Internet, an increase of 10.26% month-on-month. A total of 9.783 billion yuan of financing was completed, an increase of 17.73% from the previous quarter.

Lion review: Among them, there are 18 enterprises that have obtained 100 million yuan or more, accounting for about 46% of the total. There are 4 enterprises with an amount of 1 billion yuan or more. The top three companies in terms of financing amount are: e-commerce SaaS "Huice" completed a US$312 million Series D financing; the digital integrated cross-border logistics platform Huanshi Logistics announced the completion of a new round of financing of 1.7 billion yuan; and Ruiyong Mall completed a US$250 million Series D financing.

SaaS track financing is extremely hot, with a total of 32 investment and financing events in October, accounting for 79.49% of the total financing events. The B2B supply chain track declined slightly, with a total of 7 financing incidents in October and 4 in the logistics sector.

The amount of investment and financing in the SaaS sector was 6.053 billion yuan, an increase of 66.38% month-on-month, and the investment and financing in the B2B supply chain field was 1.83 billion yuan, down 9.76% month-on-month. The logistics sector was RMB1.9 billion, up 60% month-on-month.

5. On October 30, the Feed Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences realized for the first time the carbon monoxide to synthetic protein, and has formed an industrial production capacity of 10,000 tons.

Lion's Review: The biggest highlight of the breakthrough is that the only raw materials for synthesizing proteins are industrial exhaust gases containing carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, as well as ammonia. These common raw materials undergo fermentation, oxidation, distillation and dehydration, protein extraction and other steps, and can quickly generate protein and natural gas in 22 seconds, increasing the protein content from the original 30% to 85%. The synthesized protein will be used as an animal feed and feed additive.

This scientific research achievement breaks through the conditional restrictions of natural protein plant synthesis, makes up for the biggest shortcomings of China's agriculture, and is of strategic significance to the realization of China's "double carbon" goal.

China is extremely dependent on foreign soybean imports, and in the first half of 2021, it has imported a total of 48.955 million tons of soybeans. That may change.

At least 10 start-ups around the world are developing synthetic feeds, and Calysta Biotechnology in the United States has partnered with cargill, a large agricultural company, to produce 200,000 tons of single-cell protein per year.

6. DJI occupies 80% of the global civil drone market share, with a valuation of more than 20 billion US dollars, and has established a drone empire with more than 10,000 employees.

Lion's commentary: Wang Tao, the founder of DJI, is worth more than 40 billion yuan, ranking third in China's post-80s rich list.

In 2006, Wang Tao began to start a business, and in January 2013, he launched the epoch-making "DJI Genie Phantom 1" - the world's first consumer-grade aerial photography integrated drone. Soon became the first in the industry, and has been a blockbuster ever since!

In 2016, in the face of the high profile of competitors in the market, DJI quickly launched Phantom4 and lowered the price again and again, making competitors extremely desperate.

In 2019, the United States raised DJI's tariffs and restricted imports, hoping to force DJI to withdraw from the North American market. DJI responded with a direct price increase, and before the ban, DJI's market share in the US market was 72%. After the blockade, the market share reached a maximum of 85%.
