Chapter 0043: Signing Ceremony and Banquet
Now Zhang Chen suddenly pointed out the direction for everyone, and many people came to their senses. They ignored the clamor of the OEMs, and they took out their mobile phones and lowered their heads to search the Internet, wondering if what this young man said was true.
The OEMs seem to be yelling very strongly, but in fact they know better than anyone else that Lavida is developed and manufactured by them, and they have sold so many replacements, and they are firmly at the top of the list. The clues, can't stand the investigation!
Soon, according to Zhang Chen's instructions, someone specifically inquired about the structure of the 2017 Lavida, and the result was exactly the same as what Zhang Chen said, exactly.
When more and more people found the results and happily waved their mobile phones in the air, the answer was finally revealed.
The information and pictures on the Internet really prove that the 2017 Lavida has a rear tail hook, and it is equipped with the 2018 Lavida Jane.
The rear hook is not an important component, but the fact is slap in the face.
The people in the OEM no longer had the arrogance just now, and most of them bowed their heads in shame, which was a disguised admission of the fact that the 2018 Lavida was paired with a simple model.
They were not reconciled to failure, and they were still the mouths of a seven-pound duck and six-and-a-half pounds, and they were stubborn to the end.
Lost on the rear trailer hitch, and then changed the subject and began to confuse the audience.
"Three reliability is the foundation of the car, and other details should not be paid attention to."
"Yeah, two bolts aren't worth a few dollars, what's the big deal?"
"Our car is for driving. It's not like SUVs and off-road vehicles that dig through the mud and climb the dunes to make accidents. We won't encounter the kind of situation you said, and we don't need tow hooks."
"You are really hard to serve, why don't you build cars? Do you think you are simple? The Japanese are not safe, the French are not safe, the American is expensive, and the German is simple. If you have money, buy imported ones, but you don't have money. Ride your shared bicycle well, at this price, do you still want to buy a Maybach for a dime?"
…
"It's not worth a lot of money? Are you fooling the ghost?" Zhang Chen was amused by the aggressive OEMs, "I'll calculate how much money you can save..."
Zhang Chen now only has primary used car sales skills and has not received any prompts from the system, but since he started doing business in school, he has paid great attention to the savings of small details due to the small profits.
He realized that the two bolts, which seemed inconspicuous, made a difference in the car.
You must know that the cost savings brought by the reduction of two bolts is not only the bolt itself, but also one less drilling process for the rear anti-collision beam, one less drilling process for the rear bottom plate of the carriage, and the drilling process for the rear tow hook and the corresponding accessories are saved. …
It not only saves the cost of materials, but also saves the cost of man-hours, and also reduces the cost of warehousing and logistics.
A word to wake up the dreamer!
Zhang Chen's words became the basis for everyone to counter Hoffman. From point to point, one problem spread to all aspects of simple matching, and launched a rebuttal to Hoffman.
What everyone said is the truth, which is irrefutable. The people in the OEM were scolded and couldn't raise their heads.
Xue Feng's original intention to make big racing cars is to let more people know the car, understand the car, learn to judge, learn to choose and choose, and to understand a model in more detail, rather than just hearsay and follow what others say, so as to choose the right one according to their actual situation. own car model.
This process was bumpy and full of ups and downs, and encountered a lot of misunderstandings, slander, and even abuse.
At the beginning, Xue Feng was also angry and wanted to curse.
Later, Xue Feng was tired and didn't want to argue with these people. He understood that you couldn't reason with some people who pretended to be confused, so he simply ignored them. Time will tell, and the eyes of the masses are sharp.
Today's situation is very similar to the predicament we encountered before, the only difference is the appearance of Zhang Chen.
The young man suddenly grasped the key to the breakthrough, found the difficulty of solving the problem, and the situation was reversed.
Xue Feng was very happy. His eyes were full of admiration and joy when he looked at Zhang Chen. He was very curious about his young age, but his keen observation and solid car knowledge.
Xin Zhao was equally happy, the turbid air in his chest was exhaled, and he was refreshed. He wished he would immediately go over and hug Zhang Chen to celebrate.
Zhang Hu was even more obsessed with Zhang Chen's adoration. Looking up at him, countless system prompts sounded in Zhang Chen's mind:
"Pleasure value from colleague Zhang Hu: 1000"
"Pleasure value from colleague Zhang Hu: 1000"
"Pleasure value from colleague Zhang Hu: 1000"
…
The good situation just now reversed in an instant, and his own people became embarrassed and useless. Hoffman, who had been silent in the crowd, stared at Zhang Chen, the culprit, with fire coming out of his eyes.
Hoffman knew who Xue Feng was. Even if Xue Feng bought a car for dismantling, he would not dare to offend Xue Feng, dare not prevent the dismantling and shooting of the public account of Daqiang, and did not dare to secretly entrust the relationship with the black hand, because in the boundary of the seaside city In fact, he could not afford the consequences of offending the Sanfeng Group.
The sage once said: A strong dragon does not overwhelm the snake.
In the seaside city, in front of the Mitutoyo Group, Hoffman is a dragon, you have to roll up honestly, and a tiger, you have to lie on your stomach.
Hoffman, who had no choice, pinched his nose to face the facts, and reluctantly brought people to the scene to observe. He was afraid of any accident and wanted to have time to try his best to remedy it.
Hoffman did not dare to intimidate Xue Feng.
Hoffman has no scruples about dealing with Zhang Chen.
In the eyes staring at Zhang Chen, there is a strong sense of intimidation.
"You can't eat indiscriminately, let alone talk nonsense. The lack of a rear tow hook is a design flaw of our OEM. It's just a temporary negligence. It's not what everyone guessed. A small component can't represent anything, right? "
"You said yes?" Hoffman's Chinese language was unexpectedly very slippery, almost gnashing his teeth. His meaning was obvious. He wanted to intimidate Zhang Chen to get out of the way, don't get in the way of labor and capital. matter.
Zhang Chen was young and had a low status, but he was not afraid of trouble when he was young, not afraid of causing trouble, not afraid of Hoffman's warning, and stubbornly looked at him.
When Zhang Chen was thirteen years old, his father was bullied and humiliated by the leaders for no reason in the factory.
The honest and honest father was afraid of losing his job. Not only did he dare not ask his superiors to respond, but after swallowing his voice, he prepared to give gifts to the leaders who bullied him, in order to let him go and let him go in the future, instead of making trouble for himself.
Just when his parents went to the street to buy gifts, Zhang Chen picked up the kitchen knife at home, went to his father's work unit, and blocked the leader who bullied his father at the gate.
In front of everyone's eyes, Zhang Chen didn't reason with the leader, and directly stated that he was Zhang Ming's son and came to avenge his father.
He also stated that he was under thirteen years old, and he did not need to pay for his life for hacking people. As long as he could get out of prison alive, he would definitely kill his whole family.
Just when the mad Zhang Chen rushed towards the leader who bullied his father with a kitchen knife high, no one of the 100 people at the gate dared to stop Zhang Chen, and no one questioned whether Zhang Chen dared to kill.
Not only was the leader frightened, but the crowd even ran away in a hurry, lest they be accidentally injured by the crazy Zhang Chen.
At that time, Zhang Chen was young and weak, and was finally run away by the enemy.
Zhang Chen couldn't catch up with the leader who bullied his father. He turned around and returned to the gate. He slashed the kitchen knife directly on the wooden plaque at the gate, and said harshly that whoever dared to bully his father again would kill his whole family.
As a result, the dazzling kitchen knife was cut on the plaque, but no one dared to take it down until Zhang Chen's father, Zhang Ming, went to work the next day.
The leader who bullied Zhang Ming was frightened by the desperate Zhang Chen. Not only did he dare not accept the gift from Zhang Ming, but he also apologized to him in tears, patted his chest in front of the neighbors and assured him that he would never do it again. Dare to trouble him again.
Now Zhang Chen didn't take Hoffman's threat to heart at all, but his words had the opposite effect, arousing Zhang Chen's stubborn temper.
Zhang Chen looked at Hoffman without showing weakness, and scolded him sharply: "Mr. Xue does not accept any sponsorship recharge from the OEM, buys a car to dismantle the car with his own pocket, shoots a video, and shows the audience the real thing, but Not some glossy surface.
The purpose is to let everyone understand a model in more detail and to tell consumers what structure and materials are used, so that consumers can judge for themselves. So choose the one that suits you.
From beginning to end just present the facts in front of everyone,
You have eyes to see for yourself,
You have the mouth to speak clearly,
You have a brain to think clearly,
The right and wrong are straight to the heart.
Dare you feel your conscience and say, aren't these problems with Lavida? "
"I, I, I..." Hoffman staggered back a few steps, speechless in shame, trembling with anger, but there was nothing he could do about Zhang Chen.
"It's a good one, right and wrong." Zhang Chen's words won everyone's applause, and even resonated in the hearts of the fans of the big racing.
They have been paying attention to Teacher Xue for a long time to understand the situation of the official account. It is indeed as the young man said. Xue Feng is only showing the facts to everyone, one is saying one, the other is two, and he will not deliberately guide everyone to smear which brand and praise it. which brand.
Hoffman's momentum was suppressed, and the employees of the OEM beside him were even more afraid to speak.
With no distractions in the studio, Xue Feng started to work.
The staff raised the lift and conducted an evaluation of the chassis structure and materials.
Lang Yi was lifted to a height of more than one person, Xue Feng walked under the chassis, and Xin Zhao followed with a camera to shoot.
Xue Feng introduced to everyone that the chassis of Lavida is very flat. He pointed out that there are not only engine guards, but also side guards, which are stronger than most models. He commented that although Lavida is not a pure-blooded Volkswagen model, the German chassis has a The tradition is still preserved.
Continuing to walk backwards, Xue Feng told everyone that the insulation of the row is quite good, and it is relatively complete from front to back, which is better than that of many models.
In addition, the chassis painting of this car is very complete and comprehensive, without the slightest missing.
Speaking of this, Xue Feng emphasized the importance of spraying. This layer of asphalt coating can form a strong protective layer to prevent the impact of flying stones and gravel, avoid moisture, acid rain, and salt erosion of the vehicle chassis metal, prevent the chassis from eroding. Rust and rust, and has a certain sound insulation effect.
Therefore, Xue Feng highly praised Lavida's spraying.
Compared with the selective spraying of some manufacturers, it is as ugly as pieces of plaster, and it does not work as it should.
Lavida's sub-frame is a double-layer stamped sub-frame of one-piece structure. The fixed bracket at the lower end of the gearbox has changed from the original aluminum alloy material to a single-layer stamped small iron sheet, which made Xue Feng very angry and blunt. It is really irresponsible to point out that this kind of simple configuration that spares no effort has caused potential safety hazards.
In the end, Xue Feng concluded that from the chassis point of view, Lavida has inherited the basic qualities of Volkswagen, and at least in terms of chassis flatness, it is indeed not bad.
But the materials used are relatively simple. The previous generation of Lavida used the Volkswagen PQ34 platform, which is the platform of the fourth-generation Golf and Bora.
The double-stamped front swing arm, the aluminum alloy gearbox bracket, and the rear torsion beam with a stabilizer bar, however, after switching to the MQB platform, although the surface seems to have improved, the overall material used is a bit worse, and all become Cutting corners, missing six rubber bushings connecting the subframe to the body, removing four aluminum alloy horns, turning them into cast iron, removing four double-layer stamped hem arms, and missing balance bars, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com is missing four exhaust slots and fuel tank aluminum alloy reinforcements…
Looking at Xue Feng's explanation, Zhang Chen found that the show was very good. Mr. Xue is a real person. He will not speak nonsense with his conscience. He uses the actual situation to let everyone know what the actual materials of the car he buys are, and it is simple and easy to understand. Alloy is definitely better than cast iron, and double-layer stamping is definitely better than single-layer.
After the video recording was over, people still refused to disperse. When Xue Feng got out of the car, he rushed over and surrounded him, asking for autographs and a group photo.
It was getting late, Zhang Chen and Zhang Hu turned around and were about to leave when Xin Zhao's voice came from behind.
"Mr. Zhao, what's the matter?" Zhang Chen saw Xin Zhao running quickly with the camera on his back, panting, and was very curious about what he had to do with him.
Xin Zhao came to him, put the camera under his feet, and said to Zhang Chen impatiently, "Thank you for having you today. Oh, by the way, don't call me Teacher Zhao, call me brother, we will be brothers in the future."
"Okay, Brother Zhao." Zhang Chen has a sincere temperament and feels that Xin Zhao is refreshing and likes to associate with such people.
"In a few days, the Sanfeng Group will hold a signing ceremony and a banquet to entertain Mr. Clementi. I will inform you to come and play." Xin Zhao was busy for an hour and was very tired, and took out a bag from his shoulder bag. I didn't smoke 555 cigarettes myself, so I gave it to Zhang Chen first.
Zhang Chen smiled and refused: "Thank you Brother Zhao, I don't smoke."
Xin Zhao was obviously stunned, and then pointed the cigarette case at Zhang Hu.
Zhang Hu smokes, and he is not very addicted to smoking. He had already stretched out his hand, but he looked at Zhang Chen and hesitated for a while. Later, he said that he wanted to quit smoking and stopped smoking.
(The roast goose smoked, and I felt something was wrong in my lungs. I always wanted to quit, but I couldn't.)
Xin Zhao smiled and took one and put it in his mouth.
