How to change the traditional vegetable market in the new consumption era

The vegetable market is the most smoky place in the city.

However, in recent years, with the rise and development of the market and online shopping, the traditional vegetable market faces many difficulties in its operation.

A set of data from the Vegetable Market Branch of the Municipal Commodity Exchange Market Association shows that in 2022, there were 575 vegetable markets in the city, with 41,780 businesses and 78,779 employees, with a total transaction volume of 34.9 billion yuan. Compared with 2021, the number of markets decreased by 58, the number of business households decreased by 28,654, the number of employees decreased by 45,000, and the transaction volume decreased by 11.6%.

What kind of consumption changes are reflected behind this trend? In the face of the new situation, how should the traditional vegetable market transform to seek a breakthrough and enhance the competitiveness of the industry?

On October 26th, the Municipal Commodity Exchange Market Association and the Municipal Agricultural Products Group jointly hosted a seminar on the innovation and development of Chongqing’s urban vegetable market, and invited representatives from the Municipal Commission of Commerce, the Municipal Market Supervision Bureau, the Municipal Supply and Marketing Corporation and other relevant service providers of the vegetable market to participate in the seminar, so as to jointly provide ideas and suggestions for the transformation and development of the traditional vegetable market.

There are two main reasons

The scale of traditional vegetable market has shrunk.

For a long time, the traditional vegetable market, as the main place for citizens to buy ingredients, has been loved by the people with its geographical advantages of many points and wide range and fresh, cheap and complete products. Although in recent years, large supermarkets have risen one after another, the core position of food trading in farmers’ markets has not been changed.

So what caused the scale of traditional vegetable market to shrink?

Li ke, general manager of Chongqing Supply and Marketing Fresh Chain Co., Ltd. analyzed that this is because both buyers and sellers have changed.

"First of all, the buyer has changed." Li ke said that the consumer groups who used to visit the vegetable market gradually grew old, and the main force of buying vegetables was replaced by the post-80 s and post-90 s. "This group of people grew up in the Internet era and were used to online consumption, and their sensitivity to agricultural product prices decreased. When the e-commerce platform for agricultural products developed one after another, it complied with their consumption habits, and the space of traditional vegetable markets was naturally squeezed."

From the seller’s point of view, the same is true. In the crowded market, many young people are no longer willing to engage in the traditional vegetable selling industry. "Many’ second generation vegetables’ are unwilling to take over. Who will rent our market to operate?" Li ke said.

In addition, most of the traditional vegetable markets have been operating for many years, and the facilities and equipment are gradually aging and the environment is not clean enough, which is also an important reason for the decline in consumer attractiveness.

Traditional vegetable market is irreplaceable.

But we should actively seek change.

While the scale of the traditional vegetable market is shrinking, e-commerce platforms and community group purchases are developing rapidly, and even catching up with the market is becoming increasingly popular, and roadside stalls selling vegetables are also common.

Despite this, Luo Dawen, president of the Vegetable Market Branch of the Municipal Commodity Exchange Market Association, still believes that the position of the traditional vegetable market is irreplaceable, but it should actively seek change in line with the development of the times.

Luo Dawen said that the vegetable market is an important carrier of the "vegetable basket" project and an important window of urban civilization, and plays an important role in meeting the daily needs of citizens, resettling employment, ensuring supply and stabilizing prices. In particular, the policy support has been increasing, and its main channel status and public welfare role are irreplaceable.

Relying on its own advantages, actively embracing e-commerce and realizing online and offline integrated development are considered to be the inevitable trend of innovation and development of the vegetable market.

"By linking the e-commerce platform, merchants can increase their profits and provide consumers with more efficient and convenient services, thus reversely draining the offline vegetable market." Luo Dawen said.

In this regard, Cailaobao (Chongqing) Technology Co., Ltd. has explored a road of integrated development. Founded in 2016, Cailaobao now operates 7 farmers’ markets. Taking the farmer’s market as the carrier and relying on the take-away platform, Cailaobao has become an operator supplying fresh agricultural products. Today, its market share in the take-away fresh food sector of large e-commerce platforms such as Meituan and Hungry is over 40%.

At the same time, under the online farmer’s market, Cai Laobao actively planned related activities for drainage. For example, Ranjiaba Store, a subsidiary of Anxin Food Market, held a "Pepper as a friend, you are my dish" flash event in Chinese Valentine’s Day, which attracted a large number of young consumers, and the daily passenger flow exceeded 8,000.

The vegetable market should form a joint force

Seeking resource integration and chain development

At the meeting, many people in the industry mentioned the chain of vegetable market.

Li ke said that compared with e-commerce platform and community group buying, the traditional vegetable market has its own unique advantages: merchant resources.

After years of operation and development, there are many merchants’ resources behind every farmer’s market. If we can integrate resources, warm up and complement each other’s advantages, we can greatly reduce operating costs.

At the same time, because the farmers’ market is a regional consumption place, the chain development can largely avoid the problem of horizontal competition.

Luo Dawen said that the chain development of the vegetable market can integrate supply resources through operating entities or leading merchants, and establish a more perfect supply chain system such as unified procurement, joint procurement, direct procurement at the base, distribution and distribution. It can also expand enterprises, institutions, school canteens, restaurants and other customers to provide lunch boxes and fresh ingredients, which will help the vegetable market to enhance its core competitiveness and reduce circulation costs.

"In the chain development model, we can also explore the incubation of chain merchants. Just like every shopping mall has Starbucks, KFC and other businesses, the development and growth of these merchants can bring people to the market." Li ke said.

In addition, at the meeting, some practitioners also mentioned the transformation of traditional vegetable market and the integration of service formats, such as relying on the transformation of traditional vegetable market and introducing hairdressing, dyeing and maintenance formats, which can not only improve the supporting functions of community public services, but also serve residents’ lives in depth and gather popularity for the vegetable market.

Our reporter Li Yuanyuan

Don’t sit in the massage chair in the mall. It’s terrible.

Original doctor, curious doctor

Have gentlemen ever met this thing in shopping malls, high-speed railway station and cinemas?

When you are shopping, waiting for a bus and others, its charm is hard to resist.

But these seemingly comfortable massage chairs are actually very dangerous behind the scenes!

Even if you don’t start it and just lie down, you will still "lie down".

Someone specially investigated the hygiene of massage chairs, and the result was not ideal:

Not only the visible garbage, but also the invisible dirty things!

If the chair has been sat by a skin patient or a stingy man:

If you sit up in summer, it is likely to cause cross-infection of skin diseases.

Some massage chairs have been left for a long time, and they will grow parasites. If you don’t pay attention to being bitten, you will get dermatitis.

Some bugs will crawl directly on you.

Some even give birth to cockroach nests.

And this is not the most terrible …

Perhaps some people feel very comfortable sitting on it, and at first glance, the price is not expensive, so they will bite their teeth and spend ten dollars on luxury.

You know, massage chairs are not medical devices.

It is very casual to operate, and there is no guarantee. Basically, as long as you have a business license, you can put it out.

After a few years, it is old and worn out, and it is easy to have various quality problems and become a "murder weapon" that harms people.

It may damage the skin and roll people’s hair in.

There may be equipment failure, and the leg will be clamped tightly.

The most terrible thing is that most massage chairs are unattended!

If you really run into any problems and no one is around to help you, the consequences will be unimaginable.

It can be said responsibly:

This thing doesn’t have a professional technique like manual massage. It’s only three tricks to say skyshatter:

Moreover, the strength of many massage chairs is too strong to adjust the strength.

It’s a mechanical thump, especially the roller on the back, which can lift people up with all its strength.

In fact, many people can’t stand this kind of penalty massage, and there are more or less sequelae after pressing it.

Having long bruises:

Also have backache:

At this time, don’t believe the nonsense that "the general rules don’t hurt, but the pain doesn’t work". I still think this is an effect.

If those who are in poor health use massage chairs, the consequences may be more serious!

And the massage chair will grab the spine and push hard.

Nothing could have been pushed out of a lumbar disc herniation, and there were many people who were paralyzed:

Including people with spinal problems such as cervical vertebrae and lumbar vertebrae, fractures may occur within one and a half hours:

In a word, you must be careful about sharing massage chairs in the future, or you may sit on a tiger stool.

Especially the following kinds of people, don’t try!

Of course, healthy people should also be careful, in addition to beware of all kinds of dangers, but also be careful of social death:

If you really want to relax, you can go to the hospital!

Doctor, for a minute, the posture keeps rising.

-End of this period-

Welcome to share your circle of friends ~

I’m Dr. Curious

Nice to meet you.

Pay attention to the security of QR code payment: how to protect the wallet after sweeping it?

  Nowadays, QR code payment is widely used in offline micropayment scenarios such as restaurants, supermarkets and convenience stores. However, there are still hidden risks in the bar code generation mechanism and transmission process, which also leads to the risk cases of payment security, and unfair competition exists in the business promotion process of market institutions (see the report "Sweep, why is the wallet" on May 11, this edition). What measures should relevant departments and payment institutions take to ensure the safety of users’ payment? How to further improve the user experience of QR code payment?

  Competent department:

  Formulate technical standards and standardize business development

  The 2017 China Third Party Mobile Payment Industry Research Report pointed out that the offline scanning code payment industry has entered an accelerated development period. On the one hand, offline scanning code payment is simple and fast, which brings users a convenient consumption experience; On the other hand, merchants who access offline scanning code payment also enjoy the increase in revenue brought by digital marketing and operation.

  In promoting the development of industry norms, the People’s Bank of China positioned QR code payment as a small, convenient and effective supplement to bank card payment, and adopted a series of measures to standardize the development of QR code payment business. It includes the establishment of a regulatory idea that whether commercial banks or payment institutions, using bank accounts or payment accounts to carry out QR code payment, should verify the security level according to the transaction, and carry out risk control and security management through the transaction quota.

  In recent years, with the wide application of payment marking and other technologies in mobile payment, the security standard of QR code payment has been objectively improved. The People’s Bank of China guides relevant market players to actively improve their technical level, formulate relevant technical standards, and standardize the development of QR code payment services.

  The barcode payment business specification previously issued by the central bank has been implemented since April 1, 2018. In view of the technical risks of barcode payment, this specification puts forward a series of targeted requirements. For example, strengthen the security protection of bar codes, take measures such as payment marking, validity control and bar code anti-counterfeiting identification, improve the security protection ability of bar codes in the aspects of generation, storage, display, reading, analysis and use, and effectively guarantee the reliability and effectiveness of bar codes.

  Because static bar codes are easy to be tampered with or altered, and it is easy to carry Trojans or viruses, the central bank stipulates that if static bar codes are used for payment, no matter what transaction verification method is used, the cumulative transaction amount of the same customer bank or payment institution in a single day should not exceed 500 yuan. The new payment regulations also require that the payment institution must have a license: "To carry out bar code payment business, the payment institution should obtain the corresponding business license according to the regulations and conduct business according to the corresponding management measures."

  Jing Linbo, director of China Social Science Evaluation Center of China Academy of Social Sciences, believes that QR code payment still faces some problems if it wants to develop healthily. For example, QR code, a common QR code, became a national standard in 2000. A few years ago, the state issued relevant policies on QR codes, but a comprehensive standard for QR codes has not yet been issued. "In addition to formulating the business norms of QR code payment, the state should strengthen the top-level design of QR code payment, formulate comprehensive industry standards, and widely promote and use our national standards nationwide." Jing Linbo said.

  Payment institution:

  Strengthen security and improve payment experience.

  As the first commercial bank to launch QR code payment products, the relevant person in charge of ICBC introduced that ICBC QR code payment has all the functions of the mainstream code scanning products in the current market, and uses the internationally leading token technology to mutate the card number to hide the real card number information and ensure the security of account funds. At the same time, through a series of security control measures such as 7×24-hour uninterrupted real-time risk monitoring, transaction limit control, large transaction verification, and 60-second mandatory update of QR code, it provides bank-level protection for customer funds and information security, and effectively improves the payment experience of users. At present, ICBC QR code payment has achieved comprehensive aggregation acceptance function, with security, compatibility and convenience, and has attracted more than 1 billion potential individual users for 5.6 million ICBC e-payment merchants, making it the largest aggregation payment platform in China.

  China UnionPay and more than 40 commercial banks launched UnionPay China Unionpay Quick Pass QR code products. The insiders believe that this is an active exploration and innovation of large state-owned commercial banks in QR code payment, and it is a useful attempt to provide users with efficient, convenient and safe mobile payment transactions.

  As a third-party payment platform, Alipay has also adopted a number of technical means to reduce transaction risks in "sweeping" payment. Shang Shanhu, a security expert of Alipay, said that in order to prevent information security risks and avoid being parsed out of user account or transaction order information due to the spread of QR codes, Alipay first encrypts the information that needs to be transmitted through QR codes into character strings by an encryption algorithm, and then compiles the character strings to form a QR code. Therefore, even if the QR code is acquired and scanned by others, it can only parse the encrypted character string, but can not further parse any relevant information of the user. Barcodes formed by merchants’ cashiers and by Alipay APP are time-sensitive. After expiration, new barcodes will be formed, while previously generated barcodes will be invalid, thus preventing information and financial risks caused by barcode copying and dissemination.

  Alipay also launched the "You dare to accept, I dare to pay" protection plan: if the merchant’s money collection code is maliciously replaced or switched, its lost funds will also be paid through the insurance company.

  User public:

  Raise awareness of prevention, don’t just scan the code.

  If you want to make "sweeping" safer, you can’t do without the efforts of regulatory authorities and market institutions. You also need users to raise their awareness of prevention and strengthen self-protection.

  Industry experts reminded that users should have a sense of prevention and be vigilant, and don’t easily believe in brand promotion activities such as free code scanning and gifts in the market. There may be huge security risks hidden behind the "sweeping" behavior, such as the disclosure of personal information, and there may also be some illegal acts. In particular, don’t easily provide personal name, ID card, bank card, telephone number, mailing address and other information. Even a credible QR code application may be maliciously used by some hackers and criminals to become malicious QR codes, so we should always be vigilant.

  Shang Shanhu suggested that with the popularity of two-dimensional codes, users should master some relevant knowledge and common cases of two-dimensional codes to raise their awareness of safety precautions. At the same time, we should develop good habits of using mobile phones, including downloading tools and software in official website, not scanning the code, and installing anti-virus software in mobile phones.

Tesla Model Y rejuvenating: stunning design, waiting for revelry.

Brothers, it’s time to work! Tesla, this wave can be regarded as waiting for us to wait for the party. The redesign information of the 2025 Model Y just came out, and the whole car circle exploded.

Although it takes an adaptation period, this wave of operation really has a row of surfaces.

The most surprising thing is the new independent screen in the back row, and finally there is no need to worry about the boredom of the passengers in the back row.

The center console area is decorated with imitation carbon fiber, which is textured.deep admiration for someone.

On the whole, the texture and sense of science and technology of the interior have reached a big step, and this wave is really trying to do it.Exquisite Boy".

3.

Power Endurance: Self-cultivation of Strength School

This time Tesla also spent a lot of money on the power system. It is rumored that a large-capacity battery pack of 95kWh will be launched, and the cruising range of the long-life all-wheel drive version is expected to break through.800 kilometers. As soon as this data comes out, it is estimated that many opponents will "die".

As for competing products, Weilai ES6 interior is really exquisite, Tengshi N7 is intelligent and powerful, and it is extremely rich in configuration. But to be honest, when it comes to overall strength, the new Model Y wave is really "nothing to play".Tesla is going to kill the car purchase budget of "migrant workers" this time!

Written at the end: Whether it is the innovation of design or the upgrade of interior technology, the 2025 Model Y shows Tesla’s sincerity in products. It is expected to be listed in the first quarter of 2025. If the price can maintain the cash level, the party will really win this wave. Old irons, do you think this change is enough to impress you? Are you going to wait, or are you going to make a move? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area to share your thoughts!

Jay Chou halo blessing, why can’t it be the second "Initial D"


Special feature of 1905 film network When it comes to racing movies, it was definitely a generation of memories of youth who was all the rage 16 years ago. Fujiwara Takumi, a fledgling city, and AE86, which drifts wildly on the famous autumn mountain, still impress many viewers.


Regrettably, amid the anticipation, we never expected a sequel to it, and we were temporarily unable to solve the suspense left by that year.


Recently, the producer, directed by Yixian Chen, starring,, and especially starring have been released.


It is noteworthy that the same racing theme, the same familiar Jay Chou.Whether it’s the "Tofu" in the playSalute, or off-stage, he gave AE86 to "idolize Winner".Wang JunThere is still a lot of linkage between Kay’s fable, All-powerful Storm and Initial D.


Arguably, the visual impact of racing movies, coupled with the blessing of Jay Chou’s aura, is still a bit interesting. But unfortunately, whether it is word of mouth or box office, it failed to replicate the glory of the past.


Why don’t the audience like watching it?


Douban scored 4.8, and the box office was just over 4 million, which was the result of the five-day release of All-powerful Storm. This performance is not worth mentioning at all compared with Initial D, which ranked sixth in the total box office in 2005.


No matter whether it is or not, films of the same kind that hit the box office are always willing to create the image of "burning blood", and the new work supervised by Jay Chou is no exception. But looking at the whole film, its performance is really difficult to prop up the corresponding stunt.



Director Yixian Chen admits that in order to remember the father who enlightened his car through movies, the story of Lao Shen and his son A Shen in the play is full of the shadow of himself and his father. In addition to family, the film’s excavation of the initial heart of the male owner Dujak’s racing car lies in his love for Lily; As for the root of the conflict with villains, it is rooted in the friendship break between Li Yifei and Song Jie, who used to be teammates.


Family, love and friendship go into battle together, and it is understandable to promote the development of the plot with rich emotional changes. However, the description of these feelings in the film has not been deeply explained and explored, and only a few strokes have passed by. Even the audience who have seen the film probably cannot resonate with it.


In addition, the process of the simulator champion becoming a real track champion is also described a little rough and deliberate. Especially when the theme of racing is put aside, All-powerful can be regarded as a story of a man’s "power generation for love", which is based on a weak plot and simple emotions. To some extent, it is difficult to talk about "blood".


Even in the racing scenes that can best arouse the audience’s emotions, the director tried his best to restore the exciting scenes of racing competition through multiple scenes, but the reason why the plot design helped the team win was based on the driver’s early judgment on rainy days. In the absence of clear foreshadowing or subsequent explanation, such an unpremeditated plot became a failure that the film could not ignore.


Undeniably, as a former professional racing driver, Yixian Chen has a deeper understanding and experience of professional racing than ordinary directors. The film covers a wide range of industry topics such as fleet operation and schedule strategy. Under the guarantee of sufficient investment, all kinds of "cool spots" such as "racing" and "falling" of burning money are also portrayed.


However, perhaps because he was an advertising director, Yixian Chen didn’t seem to have the thinking and method of shooting short films, and lacked the use of long shots and proper close-ups. Many shots that should have caused adrenaline surge were also complained by the audience that it was difficult to really get excited.



In the end, "large-scale MV" has become a concise review of fans; Not being loved by the public has also become the dilemma faced by All-powerful Storm.


Why don’t fans buy it?


The film quality is the key point that affects the market box office, but not all factors.


Some time ago, thanks to the excavation of the sinking market and the precise marketing of potential audiences, Douban scored only the sum of 3.5 and 4.1, and its box office performance still exceeded 100 million. This means that works that meet the pain points of potential audiences and have poor word-of-mouth performance still have the opportunity to turn over and counterattack.



As mentioned above, the quality of "All-powerful Storm" is doomed to be difficult to get out of the circle.


Jay Chou has a strong influence, his every move, can easily board the forefront of hot search. As a "living signboard" of "All-powerful Storm", he also contracted most of the heat sources before the film was shown with his own voice.


In fact, although he was a producer, guest star and personally composed music for the theme song, his appearance in the film was also very short. In the eyes of fans, this is just the name of the idol on the surface. The core of the real performance has little to do with it, so it is certainly not necessary to spend it.


Anyone familiar with Jay Chou knows that he often participates in film creation because of his interest. Starring "Initial D" because of car love; Starring because he likes basketball; Self-directed and self-directed because he likes music.


But it is a pity that, with the exception of "Initial D" and "Unspeakable Secrets", its screen performances are not remarkable, and Qi Fei’s masterpieces with word-of-mouth and box office are not produced much. However, although Slam Dunk and Love on the Rooftop have a general reputation, the box office of both films has also exceeded 100 million yuan, which, to a certain extent, also shows Jay Chou’s box office appeal.


Admittedly, this does not mean that fans can accept holding high Jay’s banner and playing "edge ball".


It’s not difficult to find out from Jay Chou’s resume that "All-powerful Storm" is not the first time he has been named as a producer of "bad movies". Four years ago, it also featured in the name of "Jay Chou Producer", but in the end, Douban scored only 4.6, and the box office did not exceed 4 million. It can be seen that Jay Chou has a strong appeal, but also has a group of savvy fans.


The lesson of "The Agreement of 10,000 Kilometers" will make fans hesitate to place an order to watch movies. At the same time, as countless idols born in the 1980s and 1990s, Jay fans are getting longer and longer with the years. At the same time, they are more mature and rational, and it is difficult to buy "bad movies" named after idols.



Back to "All-powerful" itself, looking at the film’s creative team, Jay Chou is the producer, his best friend is the producer, his wife Hannah Quinlivan is the heroine, and his younger brother Karry is the special star. In the words of fans, this is a "Jay Chou Friends Circle Movie", which is a work tailored by Jay for his wife.


Perhaps, if Hannah Quinlivan’s performance is awesome, it’s natural for fans to love me, love my dog. But unfortunately, she didn’t surprise everyone and couldn’t attract fans. Her poor acting skills were even discouraged by everyone.



It is worth mentioning that some senior fans have also expressed another view. From the variety "Travel Notes of the Week" to the movie "All-powerful Storm", Jay has often appeared in public with relatives and friends in recent years.


As fans, they can understand the idol’s mentality, but they don’t accept the works that are not centered on Jay Chou and start to consume the aura he has accumulated for many years. In the eyes of fans, they are still looking forward to seeing Jay’s new attempt, but they are unwilling to support his over-consumed works.

Just as Jay Chou didn’t become the lifeline of All-powerful, the core of winning in the market, regardless of the publicity stunt of any work, is the quality of the film.



Take the National Day in 2018 as an example, the main theme is to continue the Mahua FunAge style and the charm of "Shen Teng", and the box office before the screening is expected to be as high as 2.5 billion+. However, after the release, it was vomited by a large number of audiences because the goods were not right. The word-of-mouth of the film Douban plummeted from 5.9 at the opening of the painting to 4.6, and the film arrangement rate dropped from 35% on the first day to 20%. Finally, the box office stayed at 600 million, far below the box office expectations, and even less than half of the previous box office.



In the final analysis, the audience is more willing to enter the theater for high-quality content. Beyond gimmicks, works should return to the essence of creation. Only in this way can our film develop positively.
