Chapter 135: TOP GEAR

Affected by the aftermath of the 2008 Olympics and China's strongest economic recovery after the subprime mortgage crisis, Asia, a large country in the East, has unwittingly become a regular visitor to international public opinion. Macroscopically, the economic foundation determines the superstructure, and at the micro level, it means that there is money in the pocket, and there are people who listen to it, and anything that happens in China can be quickly spread to the world, and on the side, the country has a certain passive right to speak.

In addition, with the purchase of Land Rover and Volvo international famous brands by Zhonghua Group in the past two years, the automobile industry from China has begun to attract global attention.

Known as one of the best car review programs in the world, the "TOP GEAR" column group specially made a special feature on Chinese automobiles, and the host of the three cheap customers made a personal joke about the real strength of China's automobile industry.

"If I hadn't heard that the Chinese had bought Land Rover and Volvo, I would never have thought that this country could still make cars." In my impression, the feet of Chinese people do not have the opportunity to touch the brakes and accelerator pedal except for pedaling the bicycle. ”

As soon as the show began, "Gorilla", the host of "TOP GEAR", said to the camera while walking on a broken phoenix bicycle.

"But I quickly found out that I was wrong, because in China you see all kinds of famous cars. Look, just passed a BMW MINI that I like very much - hey, here comes another BMW X5, it seems that the Chinese are really not bad for money!"

Stopping the old second-hand Phoenix bicycle, the two passing cars were soon left with only their backs, and the gorilla spread his hands and sighed at the camera.

Soon the scene changed, and next to the gorilla, his other two partners stepped out of the red BMW MINI and the silver-gray X5 car that had just passed: one nicknamed "Mole" and the other "Captain".

"When I overtook you just now, I had already stepped on the accelerator to the end and ran fast, but I didn't expect to be caught up by you. ”

The mole who got off the BMW MINI said to the gorilla with a grumbling face.

At this time, the camera gave the front position of the red BMW MINI, and the eye-catching was the Chinese Lifan logo, and everyone found out that this was a Chinese-made car through the lens conversion.

"Lifan 320, this is a car produced by a factory in China that manufactures motorcycles. It looks like it's based on a blurry photo printed out from a fax machine, and it's not great when you look at it from a distance, but it's miserable when you look at it up close.

You look at this seam big enough to put my thumb down, the shoddy workmanship and incongruous design simply tarnished the noble MINI image in my heart.

If it weren't for China, I'd light a fire and burn it!"

The open-mouthed gorilla began to let go of itself again, and it was seen that the first Chinese car to be unveiled had a very bad head.

"Even if you press the accelerator harder, you can't do anything but hear the roar of the engine, and it's still driving slowly on the road like an old cow.

However, this Lifan 320 still has an advantage, that is, if you find that the seat belt is not fastened, it will knock on the door regularly to remind you to pay attention to safety. ”

The host Mole, who was in charge of driving just now, talked about his feelings about driving Lifan 320, and at the same time, the camera screen also gave Lifan 320 the world's only doorbell alarm with Chinese characteristics when he was not wearing a seat belt.

"Ding-dong-ding-"

Such a joyful picture made the three laugh.

"I retract what I just said, this Lifan 320 is actually a car with family warmth, reminding you not to forget the way home anytime and anywhere, but we didn't find its strengths. ”

The gorilla, the head of the three, danced happily, and soon began to introduce another SUV with Chinese characteristics next to him.

"Obviously, the car that the captain was riding in just now is also a unique product in China, and the car that looks like a BMW X5 is actually an imitation produced by a car called Shuanghuan Automobile. It's called SCEO, and I don't understand what it's trying to say.

If you really want to understand it, it should be a suit and leather shoes worn over underwear to dress up the image of the CEO of a listed company. ”

The SUV looks very similar to the BMW X5, but when you zoom in, you can see that the paint and workmanship are cheap products, and the front of the car stands with the logo of a double-ring car.

"It's only a tenth of the price of the BMW X5 in China, and it's less than £5,500 when converted into pounds, so it's so cheap that you can't have friends. If the cost of buying a BMW X5 is calculated, I can replace this SCEO for 10 years in a row, and it only takes one step to achieve the exact same as the X5. ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw the host captain take out a blue sky and white cloud car logo and cover it on the double-ring car logo to change the identity of the vehicle.

"Chinese car dealerships will have an additional service, which is to help you completely replace a complete set of car logos, of course, the blue sky and white cloud BMW logo in my hand is also an imitation. They call it a value-added service that allows customers to enjoy the aristocratic treatment of a luxury brand, requiring a quote of no more than £5.

In China, you can find any imitation you want, even if it's a human being, you can make one out of thin air. It's like our 'Brother Try' somehow found his Chinese relatives!"

"Ahh

With a burst of Bruce Lee's trademark shouts, a racer wearing a black helmet ran out with a nunchuck.

But beside him, there was obviously another trial brother in a white test suit, who looked at the replica of the black clothes and helplessly spread his hands to the camera.

Brother Tryti is the fourth pillar of "TOP GEAR" in addition to the three, he never shows his face when he wears a helmet, but his car skills are unmatched.

"I think BMW should sue these two Chinese car companies, it's very obvious that they have stolen the exterior of the BMW car. ”

After the three of them got back together, Mole took the lead in stirring up the topic of intellectual property.

"Do you think the Chinese company has stolen the appearance of the BMW car?"

Instead of answering directly, the gorilla threw the question to the third host, Captain.

"No matter how you look at it, 1.3 billion Chinese will agree with me. ”

The captain shook his head desperately, seemingly disagreeing.

"Add me one, I don't think it's similar either. It seems that you are the only one who has such an idea, if you don't believe it, you can call the BMW headquarters to verify it. ”

The gorilla pulls out the phone and hands it to the mole, indicating that there is no one to support his views.

......

does not change the program mode that has always been spoofed, and the "TOP GEAR" program hacked Chinese cars and even China at the beginning.

The camera switched again, and the three changed the scene to continue shooting, and the background was the glittering headquarters of Zhonghua Group.

"Are there any Chinese-made cars that are still on the verge of being made? We came to a city called Jiangzhou, which is known as the automobile capital of China.

You are not mistaken, this is the headquarters of the Chinese nouveau riche, they bought Land Rover and Volvo, and sold the Jaguar brand that I like very much to the Indians!"

The gorilla who dares to speak and dare to do directly refers to Han Hao as a Chinese nouveau riche, and in his opinion, the owner of a Chinese car company is wielding a lot of banknotes to carry home one world famous brand after another.

"Don't forget, our fathers called the Yankees nouveau riche, and now the North American nouveau riche is called the hegemon of the world. In the near future, the Chinese nouveau riche will also participate in dominating the world, which is really an embarrassment for our British Empire!"

The mole, who was good at raising the bar, quickly grasped the gorilla's pain point and replied without caring about himself.

"When the British car brands were sold one by one, the British Empire was over. Speaking of which, I quite hope that China's nouveau riche can restore the glory of Land Rover, when Land Rover was sold to Ford was treated as a bitch, and the Americans blamed the Americans for messing up the Land Rover. ”

As a seasoned car reviewer, Gorilla can't help but show his true feelings when it comes to British car brands. It can be seen that he has a heartfelt love for a local brand like Land Rover.

"That's why we're here, to see what is the real level of China's largest auto company, Zhonghua Group?"

After the captain who finally answered the call, he waved his hand, and the joystick camera was raised, and a large row of various cars appeared on the screen, all of which were products of Zhonghua Group.

From the company's first car, Huaxia Light Microface, to the latest pure electric mid-level sedan "Han", which represents future automotive technology, it shows the journey that Zhonghua Group has traveled in more than ten years.

Knowing that "TOP GEAR" was going to be filmed in China, Han Hao generously lent the vehicle to their program team. You must know that when it comes to Chinese automobiles now, Zhonghua Group is already the object of narration that everyone can't get around.

Although he knew that the three had a poisonous tongue and would not show mercy to the China Group, Han Hao did not retreat.

"What others say in words can no longer affect the performance of Zhonghua Group in the market. Our company has the confidence to accept criticism and ridicule from different angles, which is a sign of self-confidence!"

With Han Hao's approval, of course, the filming plan of the "TOP GEAR" program team is unimpeded all the way in Jiangzhou.

"The word shanzhai is a new term I learned in China, and its consciousness is plagiarism and imitation, which represents the Chinese's complaints and perceptions of their own industrial level.

Even the Zhonghua Group, known as China's largest automobile company, cannot escape the path of imitation to start out, and these ten years ago car products can be seen in the shadow of Suzuki, Daewoo and Toyota models.

To get a real feeling, the three of us decided to start a test drive in any car. ”

As soon as the gorilla finished speaking, he beckoned the two partners to embark on the first generation of Huaxia Light, the first generation of QQ and the first generation of Chinese "Qin".

At the proving ground, three cars lined up in a row to start the lap test.

"Woo-boom-"

In the roar, the three senior test drivers turned on the tire burning start mode, and bursts of black smoke came out of contact between the tire and the ground.

As the black and white flag fell, three cars representing the special history of Chunghwa Group began to gallop on the track, showing the true strength of China's automobile industry to distant guests from the United Kingdom.
