With the escalation of the epidemic, winning this tough battle with * * * has almost become the only theme of the whole country in the first month of the first year of the Boxer Rebellion.
Since the spread of the epidemic in novel coronavirus, car companies have been dispatched to join the national epidemic prevention army and do their best to contribute to the fight against the epidemic.
0 1? Money "aid"
According to the statistics of Yiou Automobile, as of June 29th, 65,438+,the automobile industry donated more than 350 million yuan, and by February 3rd, this figure had climbed to 800 million yuan.
Wuhan is an important city of China automobile industry and the seat of Dongfeng Group. Dongfeng will be one of the most serious automobile manufacturers affected by the epidemic and suffered the most economic losses, but it is the first automobile enterprise to act quickly. He donated money to Wuhan Charity Federation twice, purchased epidemic prevention materials and donated vehicles. As of press time, the accumulated aid to Wuhan has exceeded 42 million euros.
All walks of life in China have the same fate in this "epidemic". As the pillar of manufacturing industry, the automobile industry is obviously affected by the epidemic in the short term. On the first trading day of A shares after February 3, the share prices of most listed auto companies suffered heavy losses and plummeted collectively. The epidemic itself is a life-and-death battle for car companies. They are facing great market pressure and experiencing the test of survival, but they still take out their own money to help each other. They worked hand in hand with the virus to tide over the difficulties.
200 million yuan, 36 million yuan, 8 1 10,000 yuan, 5 million yuan, 1 10,000 yuan, 30 million yuan, 8 million yuan ... As of February 3, nearly 70 automobile enterprises, including automakers, car dealers, aftermarkets and parts companies, have helped fight the epidemic.
Donations from car companies are used to buy medical devices and materials, or to fund medical workers who rushed to Wuhan, or to set up a special fund to fight the epidemic, bringing substantial support to the front line of "fighting the epidemic".
02? First aid materials are preferred.
Medical protective materials should be given priority to the first line needed to cure diseases and save lives.
There is a serious shortage of materials in many areas, and the designated hospitals in Wuhan have repeatedly sought help online. The medical staff fighting in the front line, especially in the intensive care unit, are faced with great risk of infection, and they can't leave the medical protective clothing, medical protective masks and goggles for a moment, but these materials consume a lot, consume quickly, and the supply and demand are unbalanced. There are problems in the allocation of first-line materials, and it is worrying that they cannot be implemented.
Many enterprises in the automotive field began to donate medical materials to meet the needs of first-line hospitals. On October 28th, 65438/KLOC-0, Hyundai Motor Group provided practical materials worth RMB 5 million, purchased materials from South Korea, and transported them to Wuhan in the fastest way, mainly protective clothing, masks and goggles, which were the most scarce on-site medical staff. On the same day, Xpeng donated 3 million yuan of the most scarce medical materials to Wuhan medical institutions, and purchased materials from abroad to speed up the transportation to Wuhan.
On October 29th, 65438/KLOC-0, Weimar Automobile donated 4 million yuan of materials to Huanggang, Hubei Province, including medical supplies including masks, epidemic prevention vehicles and cash payment. The first batch of N95 medical protective masks that had been urgently purchased before have also been sent to Huanggang.
On June 365438+1October 3 1 day, Volvo Car donated medical emergency supplies and medical equipment worth100000 yuan to Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center and some Shanghai 3A hospitals.
In addition to donating money and supplying medical supplies, upstream and downstream enterprises in the automobile industry chain do their best and have their own significance.
03? "Guardian of Salvation" in Epidemic Situation
Since the outbreak of the epidemic, the bus system in Wuhan has been shut down one after another. In order to eliminate the worries of people in the front line of war and epidemic, it can be said that it is a timely help for medical staff and ordinary people to cooperate with "war and epidemic" to ensure basic transportation in epidemic areas.
Many scientific and technological travel platforms, such as T3 Travel, Dongfeng Travel, Car Link, First Automobile Travel by Car, Caocao Travel, FAW Travel, etc., responded to the request of Wuhan Prevention and Control Headquarters, suspended the operation of Wuhan online car travel on June 5438+1October 24, and successively set up emergency prevention and control support teams to provide free travel protection for Wuhan community residents.
65438+1On October 23rd, T3 announced the establishment of Wuhan Special Command to support the transportation of medical staff; 1On October 25th, 65438 Car Company also announced that it would provide free car service to organizations and media involved in medical rescue in Wuhan. 65438128, Great Wall Europe set up an emergency support team to fight the epidemic, and established instant communication channels with the transportation authorities and transportation management agencies. Drivers are on call 24 hours a day to provide transportation services for medical staff.
On October 30th, 65438+/KLOC-0, BAIC New Energy Light Brigade announced that it would provide free car service for front-line medical rescue workers and media workers involved in epidemic reporting in 20 major operating cities nationwide from now on, and provide service cars for medical rescue organizations and media workers who need cars for more than 1 month.
On February 1 day, Ali's Gaode taxi took a trip with Wuhan travel partner Fengyun, organized a volunteer team, and launched the "medical car" service, with 24-hour call free. Following Wuhan and Shanghai, Didi also set up a "medical security convoy" in Beijing on February 3rd? Provide free shuttle bus service for medical staff in designated hospitals announced by Beijing.
The company also set up an emergency rescue service team to provide services for vehicles related to epidemic prevention and control in Wuhan and assist in epidemic prevention and control. Provide 24-hour free rescue service for vehicles related to epidemic prevention and control within the rescue scope.
As the late rescue guards in the epidemic, various car companies provide convenient transportation services for medical staff and people in the epidemic areas, and at the same time strengthen epidemic prevention and disinfection measures to prevent the virus from spreading further.
04? R&D and Manufacturing Support "Frontline"
Geely decided to invest 370 million yuan to start the research and development of "all-round health car" with anti-virus function. "All-round health car" is a consumer-grade product mainly for ordinary consumers. We will focus on breaking through the virus prevention function and technology in the car, effectively inhibit and reduce the harm of the virus to the human body, and the air conditioning system, handle and button in the car will also have the ability of bacteriostasis or surface sterilization.
This not only means adding a new evaluation dimension for driving safety, but also leads the new development direction in the field of automobile research and development. The launch of "all-round healthy car" in the future will bring innovation to the evaluation standard of "interior ecological environment".
65438+ 10/24, after the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology assigned the emergency production task of negative pressure ambulance to several major domestic automobile manufacturers, Brilliance Group, Beiqi Foton, SAIC Chase, Jiangling Ford and other 12 enterprises are strengthening the production and manufacturing of customized negative pressure ambulances.
The overall assembly process of negative pressure ambulance is stricter than that of ordinary ambulance, and the relative cost is higher. It belongs to special medical devices, which can effectively block viruses and prevent and control epidemics. Novel coronavirus is contagious, but most ordinary ambulances don't have negative pressure function, so they lack sealing and isolation. Therefore, in the face of disasters, the demand for negative pressure ambulances is particularly prominent and urgent.
The main engine factory worked overtime regardless of the production pressure. For example, SAIC Chase shortened the production R&D and manufacturing cycle, which originally needed one month, to 10 day, and seized valuable time and support from the epidemic.
05? Start the epidemic "disinfection war"
Virus epidemic prevention needs long-term efforts from all walks of life.
After the "war epidemic" in the market, we will check for leaks and make up for gaps, and do our best to implement epidemic prevention measures.
Disinfection is the top priority of epidemic prevention work and the first line of defense to control the epidemic situation. In a special period, a number of automobile aftermarket service brands launched free vehicle disinfection services, which helped to atomize and disinfect vehicles and cut off the spread of viruses, and also contributed to epidemic prevention.
On February 3rd, Didi Chuxing announced the opening of a driver epidemic prevention service station in the national 106 city, providing free epidemic prevention materials such as masks and disinfectant for Didi drivers and helping to disinfect the car.
The intelligent car wash service provider Yikaoli intelligently upgraded the car wash station to a "disinfection station", added disinfectant to the water circulation system, and upgraded the disinfection service for each vehicle entering the "disinfection station" for free. At present, the first disinfection station in one kilometer is located at Wuhe Garden Station in Bengbu, Anhui, Sinopec, and 16 "disinfection station" will be upgraded one after another. "In response to this epidemic, we have formulated a disinfection and epidemic prevention plan for car washing machines," said the person in charge of Yikong Intelligent.
The measures of the post-steam market also represent the national awareness of epidemic prevention, disinfection and sterilization, which will be awakened in the new virus. Precise prevention and control and cutting off the transmission route of the virus are of key significance in a special period.
At present, no one is an island, and no one in China can stay out of it. With the concerted efforts of the whole society and Qi Xin, we are sure to tide over the difficulties. Beginning of spring has arrived, and winning this epidemic war can be expected in the future.
