Chapter 0294 Auto Show Experience
Valesburg International Exhibition Centre, Geneva, Switzerland.
As the only international motor show held annually in Europe, the Geneva Motor Show is known as one of the world's top five international motor shows, along with the Frankfurt Motor Show, the Paris Motor Show, the North American Motor Show and the Tokyo Motor Show.
Compared with the other four major motor shows, the Geneva Motor Show has its own distinctive characteristics and plays a pivotal role in the global automotive industry.
The Geneva Motor Show, known as the "vane of international automobile trends", is the most important platform for major automobile manufacturers to display their new products, and many automobile manufacturers will choose to publicly display their latest scientific research achievements, supercars, concept cars, etc. at this auto show, in order to strive for the spotlight and attract everyone's attention.
Zhou Jingming and Wang Yuanchao followed Royce and others into the exhibition center from the special channel of exhibitors.
The exhibition area is divided according to the smallest unit of the company, of course, there are many small companies united to form an exhibition group to participate in this auto show.
Zhou Jingming looked at it, Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes-Benz ...... These car manufacturers, which have a pivotal position in Europe and even the entire international automotive industry, all have their own exhibition areas.
As the largest supplier of automotive technology in Europe, Bosch has no worse exhibition area and location than car manufacturers such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz.
At this Geneva Motor Show, Bosch's exhibits are mainly related to automotive electronics, such as the new ABS anti-lock braking system, and of course, the most important thing is the latest in-cylinder direct injection engine, which is the top priority of Bosch's exhibition.
In the Bosch exhibition area, the in-cylinder direct injection engine was placed in the middle of the best booth, as long as you walk into or pass by the Bosch exhibition area, you can immediately see this new engine with in-cylinder direct injection technology, enough to see that Bosch attaches great importance to it.
"Both, when the exhibition area is officially opened to the public in a while, we may not be able to take care of you, if you need anything, just bring it up to me in time. After arriving at the Bosch booth, Royce said to Zhou Jingming.
"It's okay, we'll look around here when the time comes, you're busy with yours, don't worry about us. Zhou Jingming replied with a smile.
"This is our Bosch exhibitor badge, if you have any problems, you can ask the staff of the Expo Center for help. As he spoke, Royce handed the two work cards to Zhou Jingming, "Also, there is our Bosch lounge, which has a place to rest and provides a variety of tea and snacks. ”
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Royce. Zhou Jingming took the work card and said gratefully.
I have to say that Bosch's attitude towards Zhou Jingming is getting better and better, and a technology of direct injection in the cylinder has brought so much benefit to Bosch, and Zhou Jingming has become the owner of Bosch, and Bosch is also open to the next cooperation with Zhou Jingming.
After a while, the expo center was officially opened to visitors, although today is not a rest day, but this does not affect the majority of car lovers for the auto show sought after, batch after batch of people instantly poured into the expo center, each rushed to their most interested exhibition area.
The Geneva Motor Show in the mid-80s was able to attract so many people to visit, which really surprised Zhou Jingming.
"Let's go, let's go to the supercar exhibition area and have a look. Zhou Jingming pointed to the most crowded exhibition areas in front of him, and said to Wang Yuanchao with a smile.
No matter when and where, supercars are always the most eye-catching sight on the street.
In the supercar exhibition area, although there are exhibits from several manufacturers, the largest number of onlookers is the exhibition area of the twin stars of the supercar industry, Ferrari and Lamborghini, these two brands of supercars, absolutely represent the model of sports cars in the automotive industry!
"I have long heard that the cars produced by these two companies are very cool, and today I saw it with my own eyes, and I know what it means to hear is better than to see, if the second child sees it, he will definitely like these cars!" Wang Yuanchao was immediately attracted by the supercars in the exhibition area, and couldn't help but say with emotion.
"It's something that a man would like. Zhou Jingming said softly, and there was no lack of envy in his tone. If the family car represents the foundation of a country's automobile industry, then the supercar represents the pearl of a country's automobile industry!
But not to mention the current China, even in the 21st century, there has never been a breakthrough in supercars in China, which has always been a regret of Zhou Jingming.
Since God has given him the opportunity to be reborn, in this life, Zhou Jingming will say that he will let China occupy a place in the world supercar market!
Compared with the models exhibited this time, Zhou Jingming obviously prefers Lamborghini's exhibits, although Lamborghini did not launch new models at this auto show, but its exhibits can always attract the most people's attention.
Lamborghini Countach, one of the most classic models of the world's supercars, its edges, lines, and concave surfaces all show a kind of wildness, and the aggressive creeping body shape gives people a strong sense of escape, strong and charming, and its scissor doors are also unique in super cars.
Being able to see this car at this auto show, Zhou Jingming felt that this trip to Geneva was already worth it.
After staying here in the supercar exhibition area for more than half an hour, Zhou Jingming and Wang Yuanchao reluctantly left here and walked to the rest of the exhibition area.
In the following time, the two of them visited the exhibition area of BMW and Mercedes-Benz, although they were not as shocking as Ferrari and Lamborghini, but the positioning of these brands was different after all, and it was not appropriate to force a comparison.
In addition, the two of them also visited the exhibition area of several luxury cars such as Rolls-Royce and Bentley, and after walking down, more than two hours passed.
If you have to use one word to describe the feelings of two people at this time, it is only the word "shock", it can be said that this time the Geneva Motor Show, let them see clearly, the level of the domestic automobile industry, from the level of the world's automobile power, how far is it!
The gap is comprehensive!
But it is precisely because they know that there is such a big gap that Zhou Jingming and others are more motivated to lock and even surpass these gaps.
"After watching the auto show here, I always feel that no matter how hard we try, the domestic auto industry will always be left behind by foreign countries. Wang Yuanchao suddenly said with some discouragement.
"I can't guarantee whether we will be able to close the gap after working hard, but if we don't work hard, we will never be able to close the gap, and the gap will get bigger and bigger. Zhou Jingming, who has never liked chicken soup very much, actually said such a paragraph.
