How to check the valve cover, the most important accessory that affects the oil burning of French cars?

Let’s take the Peugeot Citroen 1.6T engine, which has the largest inventory at present, as an example. The valve cover is damaged from 70,000 km to 100,000 km, which is not a common problem of Peugeot Citroen. BMW, Buick, Chevrolet, Ford and other models are also prone to oil leakage when driving for 100,000 kilometers, or the negative pressure is wrong, and the air intake fault is reported, or there is a fire, or the oil consumption is obviously abnormal.

Distinguishing between true and false valve cover

First, the original valve cover must be used. Replacing the original valve cover will solve the problem. The original Peugeot Citroen valve chamber is produced by Meijia, and there are many parallel imports in the market, and 95% of the quality is very poor. If there is no reliable channel to purchase, the probability of buying parallel valve chamber covers is as high as 95%. Once the valve cover of parallel imports is used, it is highly probable that it will not work well, and there are still many potential safety hazards, such as the engine idling for one hour, the engine climbing up a steep slope and stepping on the accelerator, and when the negative pressure inside is high, the engine oil will leak from the valve cover pad. In severe cases, there is too much engine oil in the engine room, which flows to the exhaust manifold below. Under the high temperature of the exhaust manifold above 400 degrees, it is easy to cause the engine to catch fire, and the potential safety hazard is great.

Someone replaced the aluminum alloy cover. The aluminum alloy cover is not the original one, which is not easy to use, because when the valve cover is installed, the plastic one has tension, and the aluminum alloy has no tension at all, which will lead to oil leakage after a period of use. Of course, if the original factory is aluminum alloy, we must change the original aluminum alloy cover, and if the original factory is plastic, we must change the original plastic cover.

Second, how to identify the original valve cover. It is very difficult to tell the difference just by looking at the valve cover. Look at the picture below: The red spots in the aging and damaged valve cover have been damaged and fallen off, resulting in serious engine oil burning.

How can two new valve covers distinguish between good and bad? The simplest way is to compare the gluing at the seams. Figure 1 shows the gluing seams of brand parts, and Figure 2 shows the seams of the original Meijia. The glue in the joint position in Figure 1 is rough, which can be seen by naked eyes. The glue in the original factory of Figure 2 is uniform and tidy.

The glue applied to the seal under the oil cover, Figure 3 shows the glue of brand parts, and Figure 4 shows the glue of the original valve cover, which is also very different. So if you want to change it, just change the original parts.

Third, matters needing attention in replacing the 1.6T valve cover. Many riders have encountered the problem of oil leakage from the valve cover or oil burning due to the aging of the one-way valve in the valve cover, and the problem has not been solved after replacement. In fact, there are three reasons. Remember the following three points, and it is not a detour to replace the valve cover.

Fourth, the negative pressure value that everyone pays the most attention to. Many people are unfamiliar with the negative pressure of the 1.6T engine. Today, we will provide this value for you to facilitate the inspection of engine oil in the future.

First of all, there must be a tool to test the negative pressure value. After the hot car is started, the negative pressure value is detected. One end of the hose is inserted into the filler of the oil dipstick, and the other end is set to mbar, so that the test can be started. The normal value of 1.6T has a slight change around 35. If it is lower than 25, it will obviously start to consume oil. At this time, it is impossible to observe it by using the traditional method to open the oil cover and pull out the oil dipstick, which can almost approach the oil consumption of 3000-4000 kilometers per liter. If it is lower than 12, there will be obvious abnormal consumption of engine oil, and it is common to consume one liter of engine oil for hundreds of kilometers or one thousand kilometers. Especially in the early aging of the valve cover, the oil consumption of low-speed driving in the city is not obvious, and the oil consumption of high-speed driving will be significantly higher.

Precautions for valve cover replacement

First, the original valve cover, which is an essential element;

Second, after disassembling the valve cover, the cooling time should be sufficient;

Third, install the screws in sequence according to the standard torque.

As long as we pay attention to the above three points, we can solve the problem well, and the valve cover problem is not a design defect.

summary

With regard to the problem of burning engine oil caused by the valve cover of French vehicles, we should pay attention to two points: first, replace the original valve cover; Second, find professional checkpoints, such as legal system specialization and sunshine craftsman shop. The burning oil caused by the valve cover can be 4000 liters or 600 liters, which is possible. In the initial stage, it is not serious to consume one liter of engine oil for 4000 kilometers, and it will consume one liter of engine oil for 1000 kilometers or hundreds of kilometers in the later stage. To prevent the engine from burning engine oil prematurely, we can regularly use the cleaner with general PNF technology to keep the oil circuit clean and clean the ternary system at the same time, so as to reduce carbon deposition, thus delaying the occurrence of engine oil burning.

Heroes gather in NEVC2024, the 9th China New Energy Logistics Vehicle Challenge, to see the racing models first.

Xinyuan T5L intercity edition

Xinyuan T5L series model is a model launched by Xinyuan Automobile in 2023, and it is also a popular product among new energy small truck models at present. However, the model participating in this competition is not a model currently being sold, but a large-capacity model launched by Xinyuan Automobile for intercity transportation.

Judging from the parameter configuration, Xinyuan T5L still maintains the size of its main products, but the power consumption has increased from 55.7kWh to 70.47kWh, which basically touches the power consumption of light truck models.

Undoubtedly, the market demand promotes the continuous upgrading of products. Defining products by scenes is the mainstream direction of the current market, and the appearance of large-capacity and small-sized car models is also a further subdivision of the market. Then, how many awards will Xinyuan T5L of 70.47kWh win in the competition, which is worth looking forward to!

Foxconn’s "escape" to the United States is an uncertain gamble

Foxconn finally ran away. US President Donald Trump)7 announced on July 26th that Foxconn plans to build a new factory in Wisconsin to fulfill its commitment to invest in the United States. Foxconn will invest $10 billion to build a new LCD factory.

It is said that this will be the largest new investment by a foreign company in the United States in history, but it is only the first of many investment plans of Foxconn in the United States, and there will be more in the future, creating 3,000 new jobs for Wisconsin and having the opportunity to explore the scale of 13,000 people. Trump is quite satisfied with Guo Taiming: "He is a great businessman anywhere in the world."

Getting Foxconn to produce in the United States is a dividend for Apple and American manufacturing. Revitalizing the manufacturing industry in the United States and hollowing out the treatment industry can also be regarded as a great achievement project during Trump’s tenure. It has a strong demonstration effect and driving effect on the return policy of American manufacturing industry. In the past 40 years, the scale of industrial employment in the United States has fallen sharply. Therefore, for many years, the slogan that the United States has been shouting is to let the manufacturing industry return.

For the United States, the purpose of manufacturing return is more about employment and the adjustment of economic structure. Therefore, the United States is striving for advanced and high-quality foreign capital and manufacturing giants to enter. The problem in the United States is that the labor cost is high, the scale of manufacturing industrial clusters is not as good as that in China, and the degree of automation is high, so the number of jobs and employment is getting less and less.

Moreover, Foxconn is the largest supplier and foundry of iPhone. Since the Obama era, the US government has continued to put pressure on Apple, hoping that Cook can move the manufacturing of Apple products back to the United States.

Foxconn’s establishment of a factory in the United States can obviously drive Apple to bring some of the production capacity of the industrial chain back to the United States. It can also help Apple to check and balance Foxconn at home. For example, in the future, Apple can increase its control by cooperating with Foxconn to build factories, investing in capital, and infiltrating forces such as technology operation and placement of Apple executives and core technicians. Even Foxconn’s factory building behavior will also play a leading role for many component manufacturers in Apple’s supply chain.

As early as last year, Apple proposed to Foxconn and Pegatron United Technologies the idea of withdrawing all Asian production lines to the United States. At that time, many suppliers did not respond, and Pegatron Technology refused this proposal. Tong Zixian, chairman of Heshuo, said earlier that many suppliers are not interested in building factories in the United States, because the supply chain of the electronics manufacturing industry is huge and complex, and it is very difficult to achieve pure American production.

But now that Foxconn has moved to the United States, many manufacturers in the Apple supplier group may start to feel anxious, which will promote the idea of those wavering manufacturers moving.

Therefore, Foxconn’s investment in the United States has brought great benefits to Apple, because in terms of innovation, if designers, engineers and workshop production employees can gather in the same eco-industrial environment instead of scattered in different countries, close business intersection can enhance their integration and understanding, which can bring greater creativity. Obviously, this is a common dividend between Apple and American manufacturing.

For Foxconn itself, going to the United States to build a factory or completing its industrial upgrading to seek the inevitable road of transformation will help break the brand label of the foundry. Moreover, exporting to domestic market can not only greatly increase Foxconn’s brand premium, but also increase the price and profit of its products.

Trump grabbed Foxconn to build a factory in the United States, but it was difficult to solve the ills of American manufacturing in a short time. On the one hand, the American manufacturing industry has long transferred its production to the third world countries, and only retained R&D and design at home, showing a trend of "de-hard assets". Since the 21st century, the competitiveness of American manufacturing industry has begun to show a downward trend. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer skilled technical workers in the United States.

On the other hand, the manufacturing industry needs industrial chain clusters, but in the United States, the manufacturing industry has been hollowed out after moving out. Now, if you want to move back and rebuild the manufacturing industry chain clusters, you have lost the talent, technology and industrial chain foundation.

Only relying on political rights can attract the laws of global capital in a short time, but in the long run, the rise and fall of industries and the flow of talents have its long-term economic laws, and capital needs global reproduction and expansion, rather than running around political calls.

For Foxconn, the trouble to set up a factory in the United States is the lack of a large number of skilled industrial workers and supporting facilities for the production of raw materials and parts, and there is no perfect upstream supply chain industrial cluster. It takes time to hire a large number of skilled industrial workers, and the cost rises sharply.

Germany’s Le Monde said that in less than 20 years, factories in the United States disappeared by nearly a quarter. Friedman, a famous American columnist and author of "The World is Flat", once said that the United States is now a small town with 200 start-ups, each of which employs 50 people. It is difficult for the traditional "Made in America" manufacturers to come back.

Therefore, for Foxconn, the most difficult thing is to obtain a large number of skilled workers and related supporting industrial chains, although it may obtain tax incentives provided by local, state and federal governments in the next few years. Industrial agglomeration plays an increasingly important role in manufacturing industry.

On the other hand, the region has little connection with Foxconn’s suppliers and customers and industrial layout, and there is not much reserve of skilled workers, let alone industrial agglomeration, which means that Foxconn is faced with many uncertain risks and has to bear too much infrastructure construction costs.

Because OEM manufacturers like Foxconn need to rely on numerous suppliers’ industrial support to produce, Foxconn will almost start to cultivate talents and develop industrial support in this state, which will drive the development of relevant supply chains in the United States and directly or indirectly bring many employment opportunities. Therefore, in the final analysis, the benefits that Foxconn brings to this state in the United States still far outweigh the benefits that Foxconn has gained.

Therefore, although people know that a profit-oriented enterprise should be counted as an economic account, here at Foxconn, there is also the meaning of political flattery and accommodating people.

Analysts from foreign research institutions have clearly pointed out that Foxconn is trying to avoid the increasing pressure from the US government, which is a political expedient. Because from a commercial point of view, it is not so reasonable to choose to build a factory in the midwest of the United States rather than other regions.

Moreover, it is still a question whether Foxconn’s corporate culture is suitable for Americans, because today, it is difficult for Americans to return to the assembly line and work like blue-collar workers in China, Viet Nam, Southeast Asia and other countries.

Because industrial correlation, demand, environment and industrial ecological correlation are the main driving factors of investment choice. However, Foxconn has not settled this account here. After all, where the depression effect can be generated, where will the money flow? Here at Foxconn, there is obviously a sense of political flattery.

After all, Trump pressured Apple to move the iPhone back to the United States for production. Foxconn needs to hold Apple’s thigh tightly and share the pressure for it in order to win more orders from Apple in the future. In addition, in response to Trump’s new administration’s call for the manufacturing industry to return, it will make some profits, but it will also facilitate Foxconn to go further in the US market and build its brand awareness and influence in the US manufacturing field and internationally.

On the other hand, although the American manufacturing industry itself is declining, it has always been at the top in terms of technology research and development and accumulation and the right to speak in the industrial chain. To become a super giant with upstream and downstream connectivity, Foxconn needs to stand on the basis of American manufacturing and technology research and development. Complete the transformation.

Due to its own manufacturing genes, most employees of Foxconn have long been screws in the product line and rarely participated in upstream research and development. Although Foxconn faces the problem of skilled workers in the United States, it also has the opportunity to attract more cutting-edge scientific and technological talents, participate in the upstream R&D links of American manufacturing, and promote the overall innovation.

But generally speaking, in the modern economy, industrial agglomeration determines the position of manufacturing industry, and there is no integrated industrial related manufacturing cluster in the United States, so Foxconn’s establishment in the United States has mixed advantages and disadvantages, and it is still a gamble. Entering the United States does not mean that you can have global supply capacity. On the contrary, it is prematurely washed away by higher-dimensional industrial science and technology forces due to insufficient innate foundation.

At present, not only Foxconn and Softbank, but also many enterprises are on their way to the United States after the implementation of large tax cuts in the United States. Although they all have a little political contribution, it seems that the collective visit of international manufacturing companies to the United States has become a hot outlet.

For example, Samsung Electronics recently announced that it will invest 380 million US dollars to build a home appliance manufacturing factory in South Carolina. In February this year, Intel announced that it would invest $7 billion in building a semiconductor factory to produce seven-nanometer chips in the next three to four years. In May this year, some media reported that Infosys, a world-renowned software outsourcing giant, announced that it would invest in the United States and create 10,000 jobs. In March 2017, LG Home Appliances will also establish a new factory in the United States.

The collective action of global industrial capital may be based on the demand for optimal allocation of resources on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is based on showing kindness and standing in line with the Trump administration in order to obtain the new government’s policy dividend for manufacturing industry and find a new direction for industrial layout, so that the integration of manufacturing industry into the US market can enhance its international competitiveness and attract better technology and talents.

We know that manufacturing is the foundation of a country’s economy and the guarantee of people’s livelihood and employment stability. This is an important reason why the United States does not hesitate to compete for manufacturing giants with tax, cost and policy concessions on a global scale.

As early as 2016, during the two sessions of the National People’s Congress, Cao Dewang submitted a proposal, saying that the rising labor in China, transportation costs, high industrial land costs, tax burden, resource prices, etc., made the unreasonable cost factors more prominent. On the contrary, China’s neighboring countries with late-developing advantages such as demographic dividend are creating conditions to attract investment.

At present, in the United States, except that labor is higher than that in China, the costs of energy, land, logistics and finance are all lower than those in China. In particular, it is mentioned in the industry that the land price difference between China and the United States is as high as nine times, and the tariff problem in the United States, if you export after manufacturing in the United States, the product price is almost the same, and you can get a higher brand premium. So early layout in the United States is obviously a more cost-effective choice.

It is also an indisputable fact that part of China’s manufacturing investment is flowing to the United States. According to the data of the Ministry of Commerce, by 2015, the manufacturing industry has surpassed the financial industry and become the most important industry for China’s direct investment in the United States. Wang Shouwen, Vice Minister of Commerce, revealed that in 2016, the scale of foreign capital utilization in China is expected to be the same as that in 2015. Compared with the year-on-year growth rate of 6.4% in 2015, China’s attracting foreign investment slowed down significantly last year.

Moreover, the domestic manufacturing industry has always been given the impression of cheap, backward production capacity and low-end sweatshops, which has long been stigmatized. Nowadays, young people in China are increasingly reluctant to flow into the manufacturing industry. Zong Qinghou, chairman of Wahaha, also complained before: the taxes and fees in the real economy are relatively high, the profit rate is very low and it is very hard, and many people are unwilling to work in the real economy.

Many people don’t want to work in the real economy, and the environment of the real economy is not good, which also makes China local and foreign manufacturing investors in China start to weigh and wait and see those countries that release friendship and dividends.

An important reason why the high-end upgrading of domestic manufacturing industry has not been successful is that the profits of manufacturing industry have not been used to invest in high-end technology research and development to complete the transformation from low-end cheap factories to capital-intensive and technology-intensive enterprises, but have been used to participate in shares or flow into real estate and other hot industries.

In current China, it is not clear which industries can replace real estate to drive growth. On the other hand, China’s manufacturing industry is also experiencing the same path as American manufacturing. For example, we can see that many of Shenzhen’s once prosperous clothing and toy factories have moved to Vietnam and other countries with lower costs.

Now, some consumer electronics manufacturers are also moving out. Many enterprises are saying that they will use robots instead of manpower to cut costs, while some enterprises have already replaced machines on the assembly line. At this time, the United States shouted that the manufacturing industry was returning, and Foxconn moved its factory to the United States. In fact, it was a warning to China’s manufacturing industry.

We know that China’s manufacturing industry and the real economy are abnormal in the current environment. It is not that the United States naturally develops to the top and then naturally expands globally to Zhang Zhilu. Instead, when the industrial base and scientific and technological development level of manufacturing industry are still in the development stage, capital, labor and talents are accelerating away from manufacturing industry, and then flow to real estate, Internet industry, financial industry and other fields where money is fast coming, and there is a lack of real respect and attention to the real economy and manufacturing industry.

On the one hand, the United States is vigorously promoting measures to attract outstanding global manufacturing enterprises, while at home, including Samsung, Toshiba, Panasonic and Sony, they are all considering reducing their capital in China and focusing on countries with lower costs.

If the manufacturing industry is marching towards the era of Industry 4.0, but the soil, cost, atmosphere and technical level of China’s manufacturing industry are still not enough to support the development and cost-effective advantages of high-end manufacturing industry, then in the future, more and more outstanding manufacturing entities will run to countries with more dividends. Of course, many international high-end manufacturing entities will not completely abandon China’s manufacturing industry at present, but more and more will tend to focus on both hands and put their eggs in multiple baskets.

Today, with the gradual loss of demographic dividend, the competitive advantage of domestic manufacturing industry and its attraction to foreign investment cannot still rely on lower-cost labor resources. Therefore, what the current manufacturing industry leaves us is not only reflection, but also crisis.

 

Fine Land Rover Range Rover

  Land Rover from Britain has always occupied a place in the recreational vehicle market in Europe. However, as the "Rolls-Royce in SUV", there is no doubt that Land Rover pays attention to its interior design. This time, the top models of Land Rover Range Rover will come to report with greater motivation, which is the protagonist of this article, Range Rover Supercharged.

  路虎揽胜

  Regardless of whether the Land Rover Range Rover in the past was off-road oriented or the later Land Rover Range Rover was luxury oriented, after retaining two fine traditions, since it is called "Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged", this time it must be an SUV with the ultimate performance orientation.

路虎揽胜

  The Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged is a 4.2-liter supercharged V8 engine developed by Jaguar Car Factory, which can output 390 horsepower and the maximum torque of 550Nm. Driven by the brand-new ZF six-speed automatic transmission, the Range Rover Supercharged can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in about 6 seconds, and the top speed is 225 km/h. Of course, the conversion function of this ZF gearbox can also let the owner experience the shifting pleasure of the handcrafted car. In addition, when encountering the terrain that must be heavily off-road, the automatic slow driving mode can also make the Range Rover Supercharged get out safely.

 路虎揽胜

Land Rover Range Rover waded through mountains and rivers.

  Since we talked about getting out safely, of course, we have to talk about the maneuverability of Range Rover Supercharged. The car body structure design of Range Rover Supercharged is taken from Discovery 3/LR3, another car model owned by Land Rover. Although the wheelbase has been reduced by as much as six inches, the front and rear independent double wishbone suspension with pneumatic suspension has really improved the car body shaking. In addition, through the dynamic feedback system, the car owner can really grasp the road conditions. Therefore, Range Rover Supercharged can not only conquer difficult off-road terrain, but also become a beast that devours the road. However, in order to find out the best setting, the Land Rover team also put Range Rover Supercharged on the famous Nürburgring track for testing. After completing this work, Land Rover also put Range Rover Supercharged on 20-inch shoes, which were equipped with Brembo front brakes with four-point calipers to ensure the braking performance of Range Rover Supercharged.

 路虎揽胜

  As for the interior part, Land Rover certainly didn’t ignore the compliment of "Rolls-Royce in SUV". In order to present the luxurious car room of Range Rover, Land Rover uses a large number of high-grade leather, wooden decorative plates and aluminum alloy as the main materials for interior decoration. The moderate support and softness of the seat bring great comfort to passengers. The button configuration on the center console is also quite neat, and the multi-function steering wheel allows the owner. In addition, the fixed-speed navigation system reduces the burden of long-distance driving, and the use of xenon headlights keeps Range Rover Supercharged in blazing with anger.

Domestic biodiesel demand is expected to increase

Guosen Securities recently released a review of biodiesel industry, and analyzed that the domestic demand for biodiesel is expected to increase after the pilot application of biodiesel. The following is a summary of the research report: On April 2, 2024, the Comprehensive Department of the National Energy Administration publicized the pilot application of biodiesel in China.

Guosen Securities recently released a review of biodiesel industry, and analyzed that the domestic demand for biodiesel is expected to increase after the pilot application of biodiesel.


The following is a summary of the research report:


On April 2, 2024, the Comprehensive Department of National Energy Administration publicized the pilot project of domestic biodiesel promotion and application.


Guoxin Chemical’s viewpoint:


1) Promoting the application of biodiesel in China is helpful for recycling waste and accelerating the green and low-carbon energy transformation. Biodiesel is a kind of renewable energy produced from waste oil and other biomass, and it is an internationally recognized green and clean fuel. In September 2023, the National Energy Administration organized an on-site meeting on the pilot project of biodiesel promotion and application in Shanghai; In November 2023, the National Energy Administration issued the Notice of the National Energy Administration on Organizing the Pilot Demonstration of Biodiesel Popularization and Application, and organized the pilot application and review of biodiesel popularization and application; In April, 2024, the National Energy Administration announced 22 pilot projects for the popularization and application of biodiesel, including 19 cities/districts, as well as China Ship Fuel Co., Ltd., China Petrochemical Fuel Oil Sales Co., Ltd. and Shandong Expressway Group.


2) The content of the pilot demonstration is diverse, which accumulates experience for continuing to expand the popularization and application of biodiesel in China. Biodiesel pilot demonstration includes vehicle biodiesel, marine biodiesel and others. The pilot demonstration of vehicle biodiesel includes regional popularization and application, industry popularization and application, enterprise popularization and application, and expressway popularization and application; The pilot demonstration of marine biodiesel includes the promotion and application of bonded areas and free trade zones, and the promotion and application of rivers and lakes. Governments and enterprises at all levels have further expanded the application scenarios of biodiesel in China by carrying out pilot demonstrations on the promotion and application of various types of biodiesel, and accumulated experience for continuing to expand the promotion and application of green liquid fuels such as biodiesel.


3) In 2023, the EU initiated the review of biodiesel for many times. In 2023, domestic biodiesel production declined and exports were under pressure. In April 2023, ISCC initiated the review of biodiesel certification enterprises in China; In August, 2023, the European Commission launched an anti-circumvention investigation on biodiesel originating in Indonesia and exported to Europe via China and Britain. On December 20th, 2023, the European Commission initiated an anti-dumping investigation on biodiesel products originating in China, and it is expected that a preliminary ruling will be made 7-8 months after the case is filed. According to Zhuo Chuang Information, the domestic biodiesel production in 2023 was 857,000 tons, down 33.5% year-on-year; Exports were 1.95 million tons, up 8.7% year-on-year, of which 1.867 million tons were exported to European countries, accounting for 95.7%, but 775,000 tons were exported in the second half of the year, down 34.0% from the first half.


4) Domestic pilot application will help boost domestic demand for biodiesel, so we need to pay attention to the specific implementation of the government and enterprises in the future. From the government’s point of view, it is an effective way to help realize the goal of "double carbon" to carry out pilot demonstration of biodiesel popularization and application; From the enterprise’s point of view, it is imperative to actively expand the domestic demand for biodiesel in the current situation of weak export demand and price to the EU. From the price point of view, the current domestic biodiesel price is 6800-7000 yuan/ton, while the current market price of 0# diesel is 7700-7800 yuan/ton (including tax), so biodiesel is more cost-effective in the short term. However, according to the promotion and application of B5 biodiesel in Shanghai, in the fourth quarter of 2023, the Shanghai Development and Reform Commission arranged a subsidy fund of 41.86 million yuan for biodiesel production from kitchen waste oil. We expect that the subsidy amount per ton of biodiesel will be around 1000 yuan. Although the prices of biodiesel and diesel oil are upside down at present, the prices of refined oil are relatively high, and the profitability of biodiesel is limited. Therefore, it is still necessary to pay attention to the specific implementation of biodiesel promotion by the government and enterprises in the future.


5) Investment suggestion: It is suggested to pay attention to Zhuoyue Xinneng, the leader of domestic biodiesel industry. At present, the company’s biodiesel production capacity is 500,000 tons, and the bio-based materials production capacity is 90,000 tons.


Risk warning: the risk of a sharp drop in the price of biodiesel, the risk that the demand for biodiesel in the EU is less than expected, and the risk of changes in biodiesel policies in the EU and China. (Guosen Securities Yang Lin, Xue Cong)

Closed-door talks and no press conference, Biden’s Scholz talks were approved as "too mysterious"

  [Global Times Comprehensive Report] German Chancellor Angela Scholz visited the White House on the 3rd local time to hold talks with US President Biden. The visit was not accompanied by any media, business delegations and cabinet ministers, and no joint press conference was held after the talks between the two sides. The media have questioned what is hidden behind this "mysterious visit". Some analysts believe that Germany and Germany are full of contradictions on issues such as aid to Ukrainian tanks, the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline and the US Inflation Reduction Act, which is full of protectionism. However, as the "younger brother" of the United States, German leaders can do nothing about it. Germany’s "Star" magazine recently published a cover article saying that "Big Brother is back". The cover cartoon shows Biden holding Scholz, who is only half as tall, while the latter looks up at Big Brother.

  Leave it to the public for only four minutes

  "Mysterious visit", DPA said on the 4th that Scholz held talks with Biden at the White House on Friday, but this meeting only gave the public four minutes to observe. In his public appearance before the talks, Scholz said in English, "I really appreciate the good cooperation between us" and the transatlantic partnership is "in a very good state". Biden praised Scholz’s "strong leadership" and support for Ukraine, and said that the two countries would "help Ukraine with Qi Xin" and "keep pace in all aspects".

  Then the two began to talk behind closed doors. The report questioned that the talks were "too mysterious". There were no consultants and recordings for the talks between the two sides, and there was no joint press conference after the talks. The report also complained that Biden ignored Berlin in his previous "trip to Europe". Biden visited Ukraine and Poland a few days ago and only made a short stop at Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany. On the contrary, this is Scholz’s second visit to Washington since he took office.

  The Associated Press quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that the meeting between Biden and Scholz lasted for more than an hour, and the focus of the discussion was to continue to promote "global assistance to Ukraine". However, even Scholz’s senior advisers were not allowed to attend the talks. When their talks ended, Biden said half jokingly that they "solved all the problems in the world". However, the official statement issued by the two countries after the meeting hardly provided more details of the talks, and did not disclose any possible agreements or plans.

  The secret visit and talks angered the German opposition. German CDU leader Mertz questioned in an interview with "German Editorial Network" on the 4th: "No one in our parliament and the German public knows the contents of this visit." He accused Scholz of keeping his Washington trip secret, which was "unconventional".

  The New York Times said that there is growing opposition in the United States and Germany to aid Ukraine, and Scholz and Biden are also facing the upcoming general election (German parliamentary elections will be held in 2025). Jens, a senior researcher at the German Marshall Foundation, said that in terms of the long-term sustainability of political support, both of them face great resistance. For domestic political purposes, they need each other.

  German-American relations are frequently questioned.

  Although Biden called virtue "in step with all aspects", many analysts believe that there are many practical contradictions between virtues on many issues. CNN said that in the two countries, the voice against providing military assistance to Kiev is becoming louder and louder. Therefore, although the two sides announced that they would provide main battle tanks to Ukraine, they still shirked the relevant details. Not long ago, Sullivan, Assistant to the President of the United States for National Security Affairs, claimed that the United States agreed to deliver M1 main battle tanks to Ukraine under the "hard pressure" of Germany. The American statement angered Germany. The german government immediately refuted the us statement. At the Munich security conference not long ago, German Defense Minister pistorius complained without name that "some countries prefer to hide behind Germany" when it comes to tank aid.

  The explosion of the Russian-European "Beixi" natural gas pipeline in September last year is another point of disagreement between the United States and Germany. Before Scholz’s visit to the United States, a number of German lawmakers demanded that Scholz should take tough words against the United States when meeting Biden. However, judging from the public information, the talks did not mention the "Beixi" incident. "Russia Today" TV station said that the German government remained silent half a year after the incident. "The vassal position of the United States does not allow Berlin to talk about who is behind the scenes, and Germany’s foreign policy is completely locked in the track of Washington", which will make "Germany’s future into a dead end".

  In addition, Biden signed the "Inflation Reduction Act" last year, and its protectionist provisions dealt a serious blow to the automobile industry in Germany and other European countries. Agence France-Presse said that Germany-US relations are relatively close (closer than France-US relations) because of its heavy dependence on NATO and US military protection. But in fact, relations between the two countries have fluctuated recently. For example, the US Inflation Reduction Act heavily subsidized the green industry, which triggered a strong rebound in Germany, but was ignored by Washington.

  Before the talks, White House officials said that the China issue was also one of the topics of the talks. However, during this visit, Scholz avoided the topic of China. "Deutsche Welle" said that Germany is still waiting to see that China is Germany’s most important trading partner, and the idea of losing business in China will "cause German manufacturers to worry about their survival".

  "Big Brother is back."

  Tsargrad TV station in Russia said that at present, the political and military prestige of the West is in jeopardy, and the Western people are increasingly dissatisfied with the government’s practice of arching fire. Due to lack of confidence in France, Britain’s economic situation is difficult and it is no longer a member of the European Union. The United States hopes that Germany will play a key role in mobilizing the European Union against Russia and China. According to the report, judging from the brief press release issued by the two sides after the talks, Scholz showed its "loyalty to Washington as a vassal country. Americans know how to treat weak politicians and obedient countries. "

  "Big Brother is back", the cover article of the latest issue of German "Star" magazine reported on this topic. For Scholz, "Fortunately, there is Biden — — We can count on the United States again in the conflicts with Russia and China. ".

  Volodin, chairman of the Russian State Duma (lower house of parliament), wrote on social media on the same day, according to a report by RIA Novosti on the 5th: "The United States once again shows that its basic policy principle is to use other countries to realize its own interests. The United States forced European countries to support the Kiev regime at the expense of their citizens’ welfare, but their own expenses were much less than those of other countries. " He said that the United States spent only 0.37% of its GDP on supporting Ukraine, while Poland spent 2.1% of its GDP. In addition, EU countries have paid an extra price for anti-Russian sanctions, which has affected the national economy. The loss of energy in European countries is about 570 billion euros, and the loss in Germany accounts for 7.2% of GDP.
