华夏时报（www.chinatimes.net.cn）记者 温冲 于建平 北京报道 在时代的浪潮中，我们都在追求一种平衡。 2024年7月，中共中央政治局会议首次提出要强化行业自律，防止"内卷式"恶性竞争；同年12月，中央经济工作会 议进一步提出综合整治"内卷式"竞争。从防止到整治，国家反对"内卷式"竞争的态度非常坚决，企业高呼"反内 卷"的声音也从未停歇。 然而，在政府、企业都在极力反对恶性竞争的当下，以"价格战"为代表的"内卷式"竞争至今仍存在，市场上的降 价促销也此起彼伏。5月底，多家车企通过"一口价"形式开启新一轮的"降价潮"。这不禁让人疑惑，车企为何一边 喊着"反内卷"，一边又深陷降价的漩涡？也让人思考，车企要如何在"反内卷"与应对市场竞争之间寻求平衡，以 实现可持续发展？ 整治"内卷式"竞争态度明确且坚决 一边高呼，一边降价，车企为哪般？ 当企业被卷入低水平的"内卷"漩涡之时，是否还有余力去保障产品的质量与品质，成为普遍关注的话题。 最近引发热议的长城汽车董事长魏建军的采访，也对行业新车大幅降价的现状进行了评价："一个产品从二十多万 元降价到十几万元，降价这么多，很难保证产品质量。""不仅背刺老车 ...
