The image was taken by a customer at an unspecified RT-Mart branch and shared onto the Chinese social media last Wednesday. It immediately triggered an outcry, with web users flocking to accuse the brand of humiliating women. On Weibo, the Chinese equivalent to Twitter, one person wrote: 'This does not respect women at all.' Another commenter questioned: 'I am curious how it describes male sizes.' A third user challenged: 'Tall people will have to wear larger sizes too. How can they be "extremely rotten"? I am not tall, but not slim either. I usually wear S or M. Is the copywriter dumb?' Faced with the backlash, RT-Mart, which runs more than 400 branches across China, expressed its 'deep remorse' to the public last Thursday over its 'inappropriate wording'.

The store in question had been ordered to take down all 'problematic' materials, the statement read. RT-Mart promised to strengthen its internal management to prevent any similar incidents from happening. The firm's apology, however, failed to satisfy the public. Under its statement, one angry reader wrote: 'I wish your business would become "extremely rotten" in the future.' Another demanded the company sack the employees who had written and approved the advertisement. A third person slammed: 'This kind of apology is not sincere at all.'

China Search Giant Baidu Considers Making Own Electric Vehicles...

BEIJING, Dec 15 (Reuters) - China's Baidu Inc is considering making its own electric vehicles and has held talks with automakers about the possibility, said three people with knowledge of the matter, the latest move in a race among tech firms to develop smart cars. The search engine leader, which also develops autonomous driving technology and internet connectivity infrastructure, is considering contract manufacturing, one of the people said, or creating a majority-owned venture with automakers. The initiative would be a step up from internet peers such as Tencent Holdings Ltd, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] Amazon.com Inc and Alphabet Inc, which have also developed auto-related technology or invested in smart-car startups. Baidu has held preliminary talks - without reaching any decisions - with automakers including Zhejiang Geely Holding Group Co Ltd, Guangzhou Automobile Group Co Ltd and China FAW Group Corp Ltd's Hongqi, on a possible venture, the people said, declining to be identified as the talks were private. Baidu declined to comment. GAC said it has a strategic partnership with Baidu and that any further cooperation is subject to discussion. Geely said it was not familiar with the matter. FAW did not respond to a request for comment. Baidu established autonomous driving unit Apollo in 2017. The unit mainly supplies technology powered by artificial intelligence and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn] work with automakers such as Geely, Volkswagen AG, Toyota Motor Corp and Ford Motor Co . Baidu operates autonomous taxi service Go Robotaxi with safety drivers on board in Beijing, Changsha and Cangzhou, and plans to expand to 30 cities in three years. It gained approval last week to test five cars in Beijing without safety drivers. Its talks regarding manufacturing come after Didi Chuxing last month launched a purpose-built van for ride-hailing services with [https://twitter.com/search?q=automaker%20BYD&src=typd automaker BYD] Co Ltd. Meanwhile tech giant Sony Corp in January unveiled an electric concept car with self-driving functions. Building cars would represent a dramatic development in Baidu's push to diversify income streams as growth plateaus in its core search business, where revenue grew just 2% last year.

The Hesitation Of The House Purchasers Leads To A Dilemma

Singapore media says the house purchasers only make the deal when the price is on the rise. According to a report published by Singapore's "Lianhe Zaobao" on November 26, most of the real estate purchasers in China prefer to buy the house when the price is on the rise while standing by while the price is on the decrease. It seem that the Chinese real estate market has been entrapped in a "deadlock ". The larger the degree by which the prices fall, the more buyers wait and see. Since the buyers are of the attitude of only buying the house when the price is on the rise while standing by while the price is on the decrease and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] are indulged in this investment mentality, the Chinese property market seems to be trapped into a knot. Therefore, more and more developers start dishing out the strategy of promising to make up the price difference in an attempt to break the low turnover dilemma. However, market analysts believe that in next year the price of the real estate will still decrease. According to statistics, more than twenty new flats in more than ten cities including Shanghai, Shenzhen, Nanjing, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Changsha and other cities have bonded commitments such as " making up the difference" or "repurchasing the house at the original selling price " and low-cost sales to attract buyers so that they will feel assured to purchase the house. It seems that the developers have been slightly forced to promise to make up the price difference. A continually lowered price, even when has almost reached the to cost price, can not give the signal to bring bargain-hunting to buyers, but a written promise is more effective to make the buyers to settle the determination to make a deal. By lowering the price, the developers are attempting to terminate expectation of devaluation of the real estate projects in the future. However, actually the developers deduce the price both at the expense of current profits from the previous sale, but also the prepayment risk costs in the continual drop of price in the next year. Vice president of the Green View real estate, Zhang Wufeng told the media that because the developers are optimistic about the market, they dare to launch such a bold plan. But some insiders warned that the developers' adoption of the policy of making up the difference does not mean they will not cut prices.
