In the midst of all the antiquity, a small SUV "Song" was put on the crash test track, and it will begin its first frontal collision.

As the track continued to accelerate, "Song" slammed head-on into the wall at a speed of 40 miles per hour (64 kilometers per hour), making a heavy "bang".

Many spectators couldn't help but stand up, wanting to see the whole collision process more clearly.

After a burst of gunsmoke, the silhouette of the "Song" appeared in front of everyone's eyes, the body was not too deformed, the A-pillar and B-pillar were well preserved, and the engine compartment did not invade the cockpit after the rout.

"Oh, it looks perfect!"

Seeing this, some European journalists expressed their views.

When "Song" began to collide, the TV camera kept filming Han Hao's expression at close range, and deliberately put a small window to broadcast live simultaneously.

Han Hao in front of the camera had a faint expression on his face after "Song" was activated, even if the audience shouted at the moment of the collision, he still did not change his face, and he had a confident attitude.

Aware that the camera was filming him, Han Hao picked up the water cup in front of him and took a sip, and then smiled confidently at the camera.

His calm performance continues to conquer many viewers in front of the television, and the personal charm displayed by this Chinese entrepreneur is really beyond the expectations of many European people.

The large screen at the scene began to play back the moment of collision of the dummy captured by the high-speed camera in the car in slow motion. I saw that the front airbag was deployed, and the knee airbag was also deployed at the same time, and the dummy, under the protection of the seat belt and airbag, only leaned forward slightly, and the head and knees were protected by the airbag, and did not suffer too much damage.

Looking back from another shot behind the driver's seat, you can see that the steering wheel and dashboard in the car were not damaged at the moment of the collision, maintaining safety standards, and the dummy was not injured in any way.

Facts speak louder than words, and the first collision with "Song" passed the assessment perfectly.

Before cleaning up the site and replacing the second car for a side impact test, the host took the opportunity to continue interviewing Han Hao.

"What do you think of the crash test just now, did it meet your expectations?"

"Normally, we had many similar experiments before 'Song' was launched, and I've actually seen this at least 12 times.

Cars made in China are cheap, but they're just as safe!"

Han Hao has not forgotten today's task, he must reverse the bad impression of Chinese cars among the European people.

The result of the first collision surprised many European viewers who had planned to watch the excitement, and unlike the images of the two major Chinese brands crashing into each other repeatedly in the media, they saw a completely reborn product display.

"Did the Chinese deliberately change the product, or did they do something? The collision results just now are better than many European cars I have seen?"

Someone asked in confusion in front of the TV series.

"Man, didn't you see that it was a vehicle jointly selected by the TV station and ADAC? The Chinese want to cheat in Europe, this is something that cannot happen!"

Another companion reminded him that although he was surprised, the Chinese car did perform well.

The first collision performed well, but it made more people look forward to the outcome of the second collision, and they waited motionless in front of the TV.

"I have a hunch that the second crash test result was just as good. You look at the confident expression of this Chinese surnamed Han, as if he knew the results early on.

Today's live broadcast, I see that the Chinese's cars have been completely advertised, everyone has witnessed the safety of Chinese cars, maybe today is the sentinel battle for Chinese cars to enter the European market in a big way. ”

A European viewer with a relatively little knowledge of the automotive industry lamented in front of the television.

Soon, the second crash test began, with the impactor striking the side of the second brand new "Song" at 32 miles per hour (50 kilometers per hour).

"Bang-"

The smoke cleared, and the left side of the body of the "Song" was deformed, but the cockpit was not squeezed, the side air curtain popped out smoothly, and the dummy's head was well protected.

"Oh my God!"

The audience had to accept the surprise result, which was that today's Chinese brand cars performed well in crash tests, achieving good results in both crash tests.

William, the guest who changed his clothes and returned to the stage, saw this scene, his face turned pale, and he believed that the quality of Chinese cars was fragile, and he was torn to shreds in front of his eyes.

The deliberate provocation he made to Han Hao just now looked like a farce like a clown.

Without waiting for the host to speak, he left the live broadcast room early and returned to the backstage on the grounds of physical discomfort, and it would be humiliating to stay any longer.

At the same time, the host suddenly walked up to Han Hao and whispered to him, only to see Han Hao nodding after listening, as if he had promised something.

Just when the audience thought that today's live broadcast would end here, they didn't expect that after the scene was cleaned up, a third "Song" was invited to the collision site.

"Just now, our program team urgently negotiated with ADAC, and after Mr. Han Hao's consent, we temporarily decided to add a crash test.

The new car, which serves as a backup for two crash tests, will challenge the frontal 40% of the crash test, which will be the first test assessment program to be introduced by ADAC next year. According to statistics, in daily driving, frontal collisions are the main culprit of many fatal accidents. Therefore, today 'Song' will conduct a drill for everyone in advance.

I would like to make it clear that the result of the third collision will not be included in today's final results. Because it's an impromptu test, you can think of it as a drill, or an exhibition match!"

After the introduction of the on-site host, everyone understood that there would be a third crash test, and the difficulty would be much higher.

A 40% collision is more difficult than a 180-degree 100% collision, and many vehicles have achieved good results in a 180-degree frontal collision in the ADAC internal crash test, but the results are disastrous when replaced by a 40% collision.

In order to save some face, ADAC took the initiative to make such a suggestion, hoping to make "Song" at least leave a relatively inadequate performance in front of the camera.

I thought that Han Hao might not agree, so they specifically said that the results of this collision would not be included in the assessment of today's results, but they did not expect that the Chinese agreed very easily.

Looking at Han Hao's confident performance, ADAC couldn't help but have doubts, could this deliberate suppression inadvertently achieve the icing on the cake for the Chinese?

Knowing that the third collision was about to begin, the audience burst into warm applause again.

Similar to the first crash test, the only difference is that the collision contact area is mainly 40% of the front area of the vehicle in the driver's position.

"Bang-"

The smoke cleared, but the "Song" still maintained its good shape, the A-pillar was intact, and the front airbag and side air curtain bounced open together, giving the dummy enough safe protection.

"It's incredible!"

The ADAC engineers couldn't believe that "Song" still got a good score in such a surprise exam.

They tried all kinds of things today, but finally found that they could not do anything about this Chinese-made SUV.

The "Song" exported to Europe is actually a global model, which has achieved the highest standards in terms of safety collision, not only in line with European but also in line with the collision standards of the United States, so Han Hao nodded and agreed without thinking about such a temporary test.

Such a good stage for "Song" to perform, full of free advertising, of course he can't miss it.

"I'll just say, Chinese cars have not so good products, but there will also be good products. I hope that in the future, European consumers will take Chinese cars into consideration when buying cars, and it will not disappoint you!"

After the third crash test, Han Hao did not forget to advertise Chinese cars on television.

He didn't need to say too much about other superfluous words, and the performance of "Song" was enough to say it all.

A live broadcast that was supposed to be a public trial turned into a product advertisement for Chinese automobiles, especially Zhonghua Group, which made many European media very depressed.

ADAC eventually gave "Song" the highest rating of five stars, and before the show ended, their supervisor publicly apologized for his previous argument that all Chinese cars were of substandard quality, saying that the Chunghwa Group was a big exception.

In the face of the overwhelming accusations of Chinese cars in the European media, Han Hao and the Zhonghua Group staged a Jedi counterattack in Europe, refuting all kinds of unwarranted criticism with irrefutable facts, and justifying the name of Chinese automobiles and saving the national image of Chinese goods.

This made him the most well-known Chinese entrepreneur in Europe, and incidentally, the sales of "Song" were unexpectedly hot.

In this context, the discussion of the real strength of China's auto industry has become a hot topic in many European media recently.

It is also a well-known German TV station that broadcasts the collision live, and they specially made a program about China's automobile industry, inviting a well-known expert in the automotive industry in their country to talk about their views on Chinese automobiles.

"China's automobile industry started in the 60s, which is similar to the Korean automobile industry. However, for various reasons, they have not been able to keep up with the international development trend, and if it were not for attracting foreign auto giants to invest in China and bringing a large number of technical and management experience, China's auto industry would now be on the same level as India.

If we use specific values to illustrate, using our German automobile industry as a reference, India is 30 years behind, while China is 20 years behind. It is thanks to the fact that we have brought the fire of the modern automobile industry to China, so that they can light the torch and rush to the road, and then surpass India by 10 years.

Judging from the two Chinese brand cars that participated in the crash test before, the technology platform they used was similar to ours in the late 70s and early 80s, and there was a 20-year difference in understanding of the automotive industry, which is actually a common manifestation of the Chinese automotive industry. ”

The expert in the automotive industry seems to have an objective understanding of Chinese and even Asian cars.

"You mean that it will take 20 years for the Chinese, with their current level of development, to catch up with the German auto industry, which we are so proud of?"

The host quickly grasped the pain points of the audience and asked what everyone wanted to know.

Frowning, the automotive industry expert thought briefly for a moment before continuing to answer.

"My original intention is that the technology gap between the two sides is 20 years, but if you consider that our German automotive industry is also developing, you can also understand that the Chinese will have to take 20 years to catch up with us."

However, we can't ignore the ability to catch up with the late-mover advantage, such as the Zhonghua Group that participated in the crash test, their model products are exceptions, and the 'Song' is close to the international mainstream level according to my estimates, and the technical gap is controlled within 6 years, that is, within one generation of models. ”

"Oh-"

The audience sitting in the studio and listening to the scene collectively sighed and were surprised by what the expert had just said.

"Wait, I'm just as confused by your answer as the audience. Just now you said that there is a 20-year gap between China's automobile industry and Germany, and now another Chinese company has suddenly appeared only 6 years behind, isn't this a contradiction?"

The host was battle-hardened and quickly noticed this glaring loophole.

"The 20 years I am talking about are considered from the national level as a whole, and China's current independent car companies basically have no self-research and development capabilities, which can be said to be just beginning, as evidenced by their small sales in a year. It will indeed take 20 years for China's automobile industry to catch up with Germany as a whole.

But it's like an oasis in the desert, and the oasis is an incredible wonder in the desert. In China's barren automobile desert, there is also a dazzling oasis, which is the Zhonghua Group. Over the years, they have absorbed many foreign talents, and actively use the latest international technology to create their own products, such as the outstanding crash test of this small SUV "Song", which has caught up with us in terms of safety level. However, in other core technologies such as engines, the gap between 'Song' and our mainstream models is still controlled within the first generation of models.

The model is just an example, based on my research on the Chunghwa Group, the gap between them and our real level should be 10 years. If they maintain this pace of development, it is likely that they will catch up with us in 6-10 years. But this is only for their company, and it cannot replace the entire Chinese auto industry.

Here I would like to remind everyone not to forget the overnight rise of Korean cars, which were not in our eyes before 2002, but now they have rapidly developed into a force to be reckoned with.

We, the German automotive industry, and even the world's automotive giants, must pay attention to the rise of Chinese automobiles from today. ”

Automotive experts talk eloquently and make their research results public without reservation. While researching China's auto industry, he noticed a similar heretical Chung Hwa Group.

To this end, he personally came to the Frankfurt Motor Show to observe the models exhibited by the Chunghwa Group, and the original design gave more details to Chinese car products that could be interpreted.

He believes that Chunghwa Group is likely to copy the development path of Korean automobiles and become another upstart in the international automobile industry.

In the hype of the European media, Chinese cars suddenly turned from the previous fragile to a major threat to European cars, which was really unexpected by Han Hao.

However, he just returned to China and didn't care too much about it, because he was about to usher in his life's event and marry his fiancée into the house.
