Chapter 136 When Automobile Certification is in Progress

The European and North American certification teams arrived in China at about the same time.

When the two sides landed, Lan Feng received the news.

Without it, too many people came.

UTAC Automotive Technology Federation,

EEC/EC-E-MARK of the European Economic Community,

ECE-e-mark Agency, European Economic Commission,

North American Environmental EPA Certification Team,

North American Traffic Safety Management DOT-NHTSA, FMVSS Certification Team,

North American DOE energy efficiency certification team, North American FCC live product safety certification team, North American FDA food and drug regulatory certification team......

The relevant departments in Beijing verified the identity of the other party, and then asked the crew members, and instantly figured out the intention.

In recent years, European and American certification is a big event.

It is not only about import and export trade, but also about international image, international identity and so on.

Especially in the field of automobiles, it is simply the first time that a big girl gets on a sedan chair.

What's more, the certified brand turned out to be a red flag?

In less than two minutes, Lan Feng received seven or eight phone calls.

Some leaders asked what was going on and told them to entertain them well.

Some leaders asked if they had confidence and asked for a good start.

Some leaders also knew the inside story and urged to speed up the progress of the red flag project.

In fact, Lan Feng's speed is already very fast.

After getting the nod from the other party, he immediately contacted the old leaders, first complained about their grievances, then cried and cried poor, and then informed them of the difficulty of setting up the factory, and asked the other party to help deal with those groups who wanted to consider and consider, or planned to intervene.

So there is no obstacle, plus a green light all the way......

Lan Feng suspects that he is likely to have set a record for the approval of projects by central enterprises.

However, no amount of speed can catch someone on a rocket.

Now the European and American certifications are coming.

Is the next step to engage in automobile exports?

This is something he could not have imagined before.

Lan Feng was busy sorting out the documents that had been approved by Hongqi Automobile and sent them to Xu Fei by fax and email.

Strictly speaking, European and American certification does not use these domestic things.

As long as the technology and products meet the standards, even if there is no domestic document, people will pass.

In other words, European and American certification is equivalent to a 'quasi-sales certificate', which means that your products can be registered in the European and American markets.

As for whether it can be imported and exported......

Huaxia can definitely be exported.

Whether Europe and the United States are allowed to import depends on the ability of Director Xiao Xu.

Therefore, it is the same with him or not at the certification site, and there is no need to go to Huangnigang, so it is better to continue to prepare for the construction of the factory, apply for funding, apply for land, and apply for the special allowance of Director Xiaoxu......

…………

Osawa Power.

Coinciding with the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, the huge industrial plant, together with the Daze Iron Toy Factory on the west side, jointly opened the 'lighting project'.

From the nine iron bridges and eighteen mechanical heroes on the roadside, to the vast square in front of the door, the towering boulders, to the green belt along the way, the fountain square in the factory, including the ridges and eaves of every building and factory, all of them are glowing with orange and yellow light strips.

In addition, based on the light tan chassis, mechanical war horses, elaborate production of various mechanical character floats, various mechanical gear floats, various armed floats, and various honor floats......

The huge team stretched for two kilometers and drove out of the factory area one after another.

At the same time, flares were lifted from the sky, followed by the release of Kong Ming lanterns.

The street lamps + stereos laid along the main road of Huangnigang a long time ago also emitted a brisk tune at this moment.

Dongshan TV, which came in advance, started the live broadcast in the crowd.

"Audience friends, this is Dongshan Daze Industrial Park, which is ...... once a year"

"It's a pity, I was going to sit in a courtesy car with a skylight, blend into the float line, and say hello to the villagers in Huangnigang, but I want to receive foreigners here."

Xu Fei was very regretful, signed the document of today's free banquet in the township, and then looked at the European and American certification team.

There were a lot of people coming, 65 people from Europe and 72 people from North America.

Although it was a bit too much to ask Foreman and James to convey the hint of 'high reimbursement' before, it was a bit too much to come to eat and drink so much.

For round-trip air tickets only, 150,000 euros in Europe, 200,000 dollars in North America, and 1 million yuan for high reimbursement.

However, Xu Fei was not distressed at all.

As long as you pass the certification, you will soon be able to earn back the money, dozens or hundreds of times.

Now.

The two certification teams, which have been working all the way, are resting in the external restaurant of the No. 1 office building.

As the saying goes, as far as the landlord is concerned, the meal must be in the style of Huangnigang.

Stewed chicken with potatoes, stewed tofu with cabbage and pork vermicelli, stir-fried mung bean sprouts, yellow mustard mixed with cold lotus root, and a bowl of corn porridge per person.

Seeing that everyone finished eating, Xu Fei snapped his fingers.

Two hundred military dogs, with discs on their heads, came in one after another.

On top of the discs, each has a delicate mechanical gift box.

The clockwork inside was already energized, and the moment the certifier touched it, the surface gears turned rapidly, and with the sound of activation, the lid popped open leisurely, revealing a pair of men's/women's mechanical watches.

Although the style is not as good as the one given to Raymond, the overall is still extraordinary under the increase in the electroplating process.

"Welcome to Hongqi Automobile Factory ......"

European and American certification, factory inspection is required to avoid car 'license change'.

Just like the food is qualified, I also want to see if your production environment is up to standard.

To this end, in the evening, our own engineers went to the assembly area and replaced the logos of 'Daze Power' and 'TEP' with the words 'Hongqi Automobile'.

As for employee work clothes, it has long been stipulated that they are not allowed to wear logos.

Now take off the TEP badge, armband, and work card, and replace it with the 'red flag kit' that is urgently manufactured, and in less than half an hour, the assembly area has completed the 'change of flag'.

In this way, Hongqi Automobile also has a factory.

What?

File?

Lao Huang is already doing it, but today he had a big banquet, and the red and white radishes were all stewed in the canteen, which was a bit troublesome......

Of course, foreigners who wear mechanical watches don't care much about this.

Now the two sides are talking about 'certification fees'.

Including inspection fee, laboratory fee, testing fee, commissioning fee......

There are all kinds of them, about 2 million US dollars x2.

Secondly, there is another 'database' fee.

In the process of new car certification, it is necessary to disassemble each component, analyze the material composition according to the information provided by the manufacturer, and then organize these in a 'server' to facilitate the import and export of parts, maintenance within the European region, etc.

It costs about 3 million US dollars x2

Agree to these, and then conduct factory inspections and random sampling of cars.

Xu Fei naturally would not refuse, and the two sides reached an opinion and signed each other.

Next.

Eight o'clock in the morning.

10 classic cars, 10 retro versions, lined up, randomly sampled.

Conduct a noise test first.

Pure electric, the motor material is so good, there is a yarn noise.

Sitting in the car, if it weren't for the indicator light up, I probably wouldn't know that it had started.

Emissions are then examined.

Gas turbines are standby emergency facilities and do not need to be tested.

After all, pure electric, where to test the displacement?

Subsequent.

Fuel tanks, guards, steering gear......

Quality of interior parts, interior air quality, anti-theft devices......

Crash steering test, seat and its fixing point strength......

Vehicle lighting, light signaling devices, marker lights, brake lights......

All the basic projects add up, at least more than 500.

Hundreds of certified personnel, holding their respective project lists, gathered around the randomly selected sample cars, while inspecting and testing, writing and drawing.

Meanwhile.

Additional sites were opened up for crash testing.

Similar to the previous prototype crash test, the front side involves ECER96, EEC97/79 and the side ECER95......

It's certainly no problem to pass the certification yourself, but there are a few more criteria in it.

For example, if the glass is broken, will it hurt the occupants, and the degree of breakage.

For example, if the car body is broken, will it collapse to pedestrians, and the difficulty of escaping.

At present, few car manufacturers are willing to scrap new cars, and few car manufacturers use the 'electroplated glass' process.

After you turn on the test.

At the moment of impact, the 8.5-ton Hongqi classic car broke through the 50cm-thick concrete test wall and continued to roar forward, like a crazy industrial train.

European Certification Team: "......"

North American Certification Team: "......"

Testing continues......

Xu Fei watched it for a long time and finally understood why no car in China had passed the certification.

One is that the money is not well spent.

The second is that there are too many requirements and too high.

In addition to the basic items, there are many provisions for inspection and testing.

Including driving safety, whether the overall design affects the driving of others, whether it is conducive to self-rescue in critical situations, and whether it is splash-proof at high speed......

After doing this, technical certification, technical audit, quality assessment, risk prediction, and then send the documents to the headquarters of the certification body......

Roughly calculated, let alone a busy week.

When Xu Fei was bored, he found an American technician who knew two languages in English and Ename, and asked him to be in charge of the certification project.

In fact, the technicians poached from the Daewoo General Factory also had many thorns, relying on various laws in China to express their dissatisfaction with TEP, and even began to win over more people to resist together.

According to the personnel on duty in the military division regiment, this group of people belongs to a group, and if they want to collect it for their own use, they should let the Nanbangzi nationality be in charge of the Japanese nationality, and the Japanese nationality should be in charge of the North American nationality, and they should be divided layer by layer, and they should be co-opted and suppressed......

Xu Fei rolled his eyes, and on the spot, he picked and chose six technicians from Wadao to implement the rules of Huangnigang.

The next day, more than 360 people, all of whom were honest.

There will be salary, there will be treatment, and there will be going to be a wife and children when you go home.

If you are not obedient and do not work hard to engage in research and development, the above three items can only be carried out on the river embankment.

The salary is trillions, the treatment is calculated according to the area, and the wife and children are all in view.

"Jack, I hope this certification can be passed smoothly."

"Director, if in the name of TEP, I promise to complete the task, but in the name of the red flag...... I'm worried that the European and American authorities will not allow it to pass. ”

"Since they are here, it means that the European and American authorities have agreed."

"I admire your wisdom."

"I can speak Huaxia, so I'll speak more in the future."

"Okay, leader."

"Go on the road!"

…………

It's night.

Reception Area-2, Meeting Room.

The North American certification team is not all a group, and not all of them are from General Electric.

In other words, GE has placed more than a dozen researchers in it, and through its own influence, it has urged various certification bodies to come to China as soon as possible, otherwise Nash will be a role model.

In North America, no one will doubt whether the super arms dealers will dare, because many North American governors have no graves.

However, after only one day of testing, the researchers who were inserted by General Motors demanded that three vehicles be shipped directly tomorrow......

"It's not in order."

The team leader was afraid of death, but still raised objections.

Because the vehicle arrives in North America, if there is a problem on the road, the entire certification team is responsible after the investigation is clear.

Naturally, GE researchers understand this, "You can rest assured that the vehicles that are taken away will never be on the road, we have other uses." And, according to today's test report, these two cars can definitely get certification, why can't they be certified first? ”

"Your suggestion is very good."

………

Reception Area - 3, Meeting Room.

The French-led European certification team is also talking.

In the millennium, the relationship between Huaxia and the country of Enamel was very good.

This was due to Germany's trade stimulus.

Volkswagen invested in Huaxia, Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Skoda, all of which were sold on sale, and with other cooperation, the total trade between the two sides was nearly 100 billion US dollars.

Enamel was greedy, followed by investment in Guangzhou Peugeot and Sanjiang Renault, and in 97, established a comprehensive partnership with Huaxia to promote Huaxia's accession to the WTO.

Unfortunately, Peugeot in Guangzhou District went bankrupt, Sanjiang Renault was almost bankrupt, and the total trade volume between the two sides was less than 20 billion US dollars.

In this context, Huaxia submitted Hongqi automobile certification through the German TEP......

In particular, this is the first time for Huaxia to apply, and the brand applied for is still a red flag with special significance.

As the leading big brother of the European Union and one of the five seats, Efara is very uncomfortable.

This is like Zhao'an of the Song Dynasty in the Water Margin, the official asked Li Kui to discuss this matter, but ignored Song Jiang, Song Jiang thought so?

Therefore, the country of Enamel intercepted Hu Deguo as soon as possible and hurried over.

According to the idea of the certification team, Huaxia's self-produced cars will definitely not be much better if they have no technology and no quality.

According to the official idea, this trip is just a formality, giving a few irrelevant certifications, so that Huaxia can understand the importance of our European alliance.

But here's the problem.

What should I do if the quality of the whole vehicle is too good?

Looking at the data, it's only a matter of time before you get certified.

The person in charge of the certification team, in desperation, contacted the official.

Of course, everyone already knows what supercapacitors do.

But the country of Efara can't afford it, and it can't handle the electromagnetic catapult.

As for the application in the bus system and tram system......

The transportation of the country has long been saved.

Therefore, the country of Ename, which is deindustrializing, is not very interested in supercapacitors.

On the contrary, the more I look at the car, the more I like it.

Especially the first classic car, with the white hound in the yard, and then open the retro-style car player, put a few clockwork mechanical accessories......

It's not too romantic.

Therefore, the official believes that it is necessary to find Huaxia Hongqi and talk about the cooperation of dealers.

…………

Monday, February 21.

Huangni Iron Gang Toy Factory, Daze Iron Toy Factory, and Daze Power have fully resumed work.

It's not just employees who come to work, but also many students who are learning about technology.

Xu Fei came to the separately planned certification area, the head of the North American certification team, and walked over with a middle-aged man.

"Director Xu, thank you for your mechanical watch."

"You're welcome, just a small gift."

"We are very confident in your new car certification, but the certification only means that we have obtained the 'sales license', and there will be more serious tests in the future, such as imports and exports, and opening up the market."

"That's true, I'm thinking about it."

"Director Xu, my colleague, used to work at General Electric."

"Oh? I know, Edison. ”

"Yes, but he has worked with General Motors on a project and can find a way to help your company get import and export, as well as open up the North American market with the help of GM's channels."

"That's great!"

Xu Fei doesn't care about the sales of the bulletproof version of the red flag, what he cares about is the diesel version of the small red flag.

If you can use GM's channels......

"I wonder what price I'm going to pay?"

The GE researcher said: "Mr. Xu said with a smile, I just appreciate that you are so young, but you can create such great achievements, it can be regarded as an 'investment', I hope that in the future, we can have more opportunities for cooperation." ”

"Ha, thanks to the good words."

Xu Fei was just about to agree, and then find a place to talk carefully, when Raymond suddenly called.

"Crooked? Old Ray! ”

"Congratulations to Mr. Xu for becoming the director of Hongqi Factory."

"Why are you so polite?"

"Test if there's any eavesdropping, watch out for GE, they're investigating me."

"Huh?"

"We didn't have any special deals, did we?"

"No, it's just a dog."

"yes, strange, why are you investigating me and TEP at the same time?"

"I guess I've been thinking too much."
