It is estimated that it will take almost a month to send the car to Germany by sea.

After doing this, the people in the technical department continued to develop glossy automotive topcoats.

Zhang Xiaofan can actually give very little help to this point.

Completely different from matte automotive topcoats, the requirements for glossy automotive topcoats are actually very high for powder coatings.

Unlike oil-based paints, oil-based paints do not have so many requirements when making car topcoats.

About 20 days later, Xiong Wenbin took Zhang Xiaofan directly to Germany.

"Where's your sample?"

Xiong Wenbin checked all the samples before leaving, but he didn't see Zhang Xiaofan's samples, so it was very strange.

"I sent it away more than 20 days ago. ”

Zhang Xiaofan's answer made Xiong Wenbin stunned directly.

A sample you sent out a month ago?

"Is your sample large?

"I just bought a second-hand BMW, and then repainted the sheet metal, which was sent away a month ago, and we estimated that it would be there in a day or two after we arrived. ”

Now Xiong Wenbin doesn't know what adjectives to use to describe Zhang Xiaofan.

If Xiong Wenbing were himself, he would never make such a sample, and he might make a piece of rib by himself, maybe a hood or a car door.

This model only needs to be shown to others, but Zhang Xiaofan directly bought a second-hand one, and then re-sprayed sheet metal.

He felt that Zhang Xiaofan took this matter too seriously, and it was simply a little too much.

"What the hell do you think?"

"If you want to see the effect, you have to look at the whole car.

The effect of sheet metal, if you only look at one layout, such as a car door, that effect is very difficult to come out.

Only after the whole car is sprayed with my paint, can I see the shocking effect, so that my winning rate is higher. ”

"I hope so!"

In fact, this time, Xiong Wenbin didn't have much hope, after all, this concept car should be BMW's big drama this year.

It is very difficult for a Chinese company to win the bid.

may be because I saw that Xiong Wenbin happened to be the wheel supplier of the BMW series, so there was such a request by the way to let Xiong Wenbin make matte wheels.

Maybe it's with the attitude of giving it a try.

Anyway, no matter what kind of considerations BMW has, it is not optimistic about Zhang Xiaofan Xiong Wenbin.

After all, there are so many well-known coating companies in Europe, not only powder coatings, but also oil-based coatings.

This time, the concept car will be sprayed with a matte series of paints, and their designers didn't require that it have to be powder coatings, but could be completely oil-based.

Then in this case, the competition will be greater.

It's not that he looks down on Zhang Xiaofan's products, but this may be the closest to the truth.

Looking at Xiong Wenbin's appearance, Zhang Xiaofan knew that he definitely didn't believe in himself, but in fact, Zhang Xiaofan didn't believe in himself very much.

Although the overall effect of a car is really satisfying, and through the entire company's employees, the expression when approaching the car.

Basically, it can be explained that this time the sheet metal spraying, this time the development of the matte series of coatings, the effect is very shocking, but also relatively perfect.

"Actually, I have a lot of confidence this time!"

"That's a good thing. ”

This is Zhang Xiaofan's first time in Germany, and there is plenty of time, so Zhang Xiaofan is ready to play.

After asking Xiong Wenbin, he still had some things, so Zhang Xiaofan went alone.

He was told to come next Monday in four days.

When Xiong Wenbin and Zhang Xiaofan met again, he directly pulled Zhang Xiaofan to the BMW headquarters.

After going through various formalities, a BMW used car was also sent to BMW headquarters at this time.

Of course, there must be an interpreter for the entourage, after all, Zhang Xiaofan and Xiong Wenbin don't know German at all.

With the help of the translator, Zhang Xiaofan successfully spoke to the other party's designer.

"I love your color. ”

"Thanks"

The designer's first words made Zhang Xiaofan feel at ease.

As long as you like.

It will take a long time for a concept car to go into mass production.

At this time, Zhang Xiaofan naturally couldn't wait, but he liked the designer's words, which made Zhang Xiaofan feel very hopeful.

Zhang Xiaofan's real purpose is not this concept car.

I want more BMW executives to see the overall effect of this car, and then this is Zhang Xiaofan's opportunity.

"Your company is the first and only one to ship the entire BMW directly. ”

"This is also to increase opportunities for our company, after all, opportunities are only reserved for those who are prepared. ”

The designer gave a thumbs up without hesitation, and he actually recognized Zhang Xiaofan's preparation.

"The quality of our products is definitely top notch in terms of design.

But we are not well-known enough, so we need to be more prepared and more attentive.

I know that other paint companies, whether it's wire paint or powder coating, they will definitely just prepare a sample and then you will spray it yourself.

But I knew that if our company prepared a model, our chances would be very slim.

But if I bring the whole car over, and I spray all the sheet metal of this car with our paint, I think the whole effect of it, you can feel it intuitively.

For us, it's just a matter of putting a little more thought and more time into preparation.

Of course, this also speaks for our attitude. ”

"Actually, when I designed this concept car, I actually had the idea of using matte paint entirely.

Come and see. ”

He led a group of people to another exhibition room, where there were already four or five concept cars that he had designed.

They are all the same model, but the color is different, and it may be painted with paint produced by different manufacturers.

"Samples were sent in from each manufacturer, so we sprayed them and then looked at the overall effect.

To be honest, the differences between manufacturers are not very big.

Before you came, I was actually hesitant about the choice of these five coating companies.

Because the gap between them is so small, I was going to talk about this problem and hand it over directly to the company's purchasing department.

But not until your car arrives with us.

I changed my mind. ”

"It's an honor for us, and even though our collaboration may be a few years from now, I'm still happy.

Your affirmation is the best reward for my efforts in the past few months. ”

Zhang Xiaofan also walked in to take a look at the samples sent by various paint companies and the effect of painting on the concept car.
