Chapter 1591: The Wolf Is Coming!

The meeting in the R&D center was held for a full morning, and it was not until more than 10:20 p.m. that Li Fanyu walked out of the center surrounded by a circle of senior R&D engineers of Zhengxin.

Although strictly speaking, the research and development of the dark horse LA is mainly dominated by XCAR, but as the first model to officially enter the European market, whether it is from the technical or regulatory level, it needs to be implemented by a pure technical institution like the R&D center.

After finishing this part, Li Fanyu was at ease.

My work has been completed, and the remaining problems are communicated between the dark horse factory and the R&D center.

At present, Zhengxin Group has been actively communicating with various departments in the European Union to negotiate for Zhengxin BMW, Audi and other brands to enter the European market. According to the EU's practice, this work is unlikely to be smooth sailing. When he came to Birmingham yesterday, Li Fanyu received reports from the heads of several parts of the group.

In the report, it was learned that as the earliest brand of Zhengxin Group, the Audi part is relatively smooth at present, and has obtained the EU certification license. It's time to move on to local production.

However, several brands that were established later, such as X-CAR, Land Rover, and BMW, the pure electric brand on which Zhengxin had high hopes, did not have such good luck.

For XCAR, the EU side gave the opinion that it was not environmentally friendly, in addition to directly vetoing the local production hearing, but also giving certain tax restrictions to vehicle importers.

That's fine.

The production of all the models under XCAR is not high, and most of the users who really like this brand will not be in the tax amount of more than one million. Even in the form of high-tax imports of vehicles, Li Fanyu is not worried that this brand will hit the streets in Europe.

Because even before the contact with the EU, a large part of XCAR was settled and used by European car owners in the EU by various means.

Land Rover doesn't matter, at present, a large amount of production capacity in the UK production base is idle, and the branch is planning to combine the Range Rover brand, and found two models in the UK base for mass production. The reason for this decision is that Li Kai, the current general manager of the British branch, turned out to be the executive director of the Land Rover brand. I am quite familiar with the positioning of this brand, and after examining the British market, I found that this luxury SUV has some market potential. And the main profit points of the UK branch are Rolls-Royce and Bentley and MINI. After the introduction of two models of this brand, it can form a high-end four-piece set. That is, the small luxury car mini, the luxury sports coupe Bentley, and the luxury sports SUV Land Rover.

From this point of view, Land Rover can get out of the UK first, and it is not too late to enter Europe after making a fortune with the common dealership with Rolls-Royce and Bentley.

But BMW was vetoed by the European Union Certification Committee, and Li Fanyu was a little puzzled.

As the world's most proficient and well-known regional alliance for environmental protection, the EU has always given the green light to clean energy and energy-saving products.

BMW's current product line covers the BMW 7 Series electric, BMW I8 pure electric supercar and I2 economy B-segment car.

The motor battery technology used in these three products is currently the world's highest level of environmentally friendly vehicle solutions.

In such a situation, the European Commission's targeting of BMW made Li Fanyu confused.

According to the European Accreditation Commission, BMW is a brand new form of power, which has been on the market for no more than three years. In terms of safety, it cannot be well guaranteed, and in terms of the current road conditions and pile network infrastructure in the EU, there is no way to open the current interface of Zhengxin.

According to their requirements, if BMW wants to enter all regions of the European Union, it must first have a feasibility report of more than five years and 10,000 pure electric vehicles to drive safely without accidents. In addition, if you want BMW to enter the EU, you need to provide information on the current charging interface and a full set of electrical solution materials.

That's a bit embarrassing.

The accident-free report of 10,000 pure electric vehicles is easy to solve, not to mention China, there are currently about 10,000 I2 in the United Kingdom, which are used as shared cars in the streets and alleys of various large cities.

As long as the required time is up, it is not difficult to produce a report.

However, you must know that the BMW brand has only been established for more than two years, and according to the European Commission's five-year no accident report requirements, then at least from the time will need to wait for more than two years!

The auto market is changing rapidly, not to mention two years, even if it is two months, it is possible to face a completely unfamiliar market. Now that pure electric vehicles are on the rise, the sooner they enter the market, Zhengxin Group will be able to gain greater market initiative by virtue of the excellent technology and good performance of BMW's products and other electric vehicle products.

So for more than two years, Li Fanyu can't afford to wait.

After finishing the trip to the Birmingham R&D Center and handling the R&D matters of Dark Horse LA, he immediately took a private jet to Munich.

I am going to go to the negotiation site in person and sit down with this hearing committee of the European Union.

on the plane.

Looking at the white clouds floating outside the hanging window, Li Fanyu felt that his life was really wonderful, and if it was not delicious, he would be busy like a dog.

For a while, I need to think about the toss of the Fa to make my life wonderful. And the next while, I have to run around the world without a little respite.

Looking at the laptop on his laptop, he sighed leisurely.

"Stupid, stupid, why do you think I'm so hard?"

"......" Stupid heard his complaint, and was silent for a while before replying: "Dad, through the comparative analysis on the Internet, it seems that it is a bit unobjective for you to claim to be bitter. You are more wealthy than 99.99 percent of the world, and of the remaining 0.001 percent, you are well below the average of 49. So to sum up, at least in terms of matter, you can't relate to the word suffering. ”

Li Fanyu was stunned for a moment, he found that through the self-learning function, Clumsy has become more and more humane except for the lack of human humor in some places, and Thailand relies on data analysis.

This made him angry: "Can't I pretend to be a force? Where did you get so much nonsense! Have you found out the reason why the European Certification Commission rejected BMW?"

Under his reprimand, Stupid was very aggrieved, "Dad, I've found out." At present, among the car manufacturers in the European Union, a total of Liu family is conducting product research similar to BMW's positioning of three models. Among them, there are four in Germany alone. They are Mercedes-Benz, Europa League, German ......"

Hearing the information given by Benben, Li Fanyu understood.

The European Union is buying time for itself!

Faced with this situation, Li Fanyu not only let out a sneer.

Want to keep Dad out?

You think it's beautiful!
