Monster Factory - 845
The stronger the country, the greater the pressure.
Behind the world’s number one scientific and technological strength in the United States are countless top talents from all over the world who have been attracted by favorable treatment, and the country’s unrelenting support and unscrupulous pursuit of science and technology.
Catching up with the United Kingdom and the United States is not just a slogan. This goal can only be achieved by making more efforts than the United States.
And the U.S. won’t be able to spend its time waiting for others to surpass itself.
The industrial technology exhibited by Behemoth Industry has reached the world’s leading level in some respects.
The United States, which ranks first in science and technology and hopes to maintain it, will naturally show interest.
Therefore, he was clearly rejected at the press conference, and was asked to go out by security after revealing his identity.
The United States is still unwilling to give up. Through certain diplomatic pressure and exchange of interests, they let France act as their agent, hoping to obtain more advanced industrial equipment from the monster industry besides ghost armor.
They offer more prices than other countries, and even exceed the general profit premium for high-tech industrial equipment in the market.
As the saying goes, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal benefits. For profit, capitalists can sell the ropes that hang themselves, and they can also chat and laugh with their enemies.
But there really are people or companies that come in the opposite direction. A rich man just doesn’t make money, so he will make you unhappy.
For example, the giant animal industry, such as Ye Qing.
Almost all masterpieces in corporate strategic management have repeatedly emphasized that an excellent company is a machine-like company that cannot be mixed with any manager’s personal feelings, and benefits override any factors. Only such a company can ensure its competitiveness and survive in the fierce capital market.
In order to emphasize this point, the author even cite various classic cases.
Those companies that sneered at them and did not believe in evil had long been played by the managers themselves. Over time, this has become the consensus of entrepreneurs all over the world and is regarded as the golden rule.
Of course the Americans and French think so too, and then in the giant beast industry, they have seen what is meant by “willfulness.”
Willful to 30 billion orders, there is no interest even to look at it.
“Cooperation is based on the premise of reaching a consensus on the interests of both parties.” Buckmaster solemnly emphasized his non-concession position, “If you treat the order we sincerely take with this attitude, I would like to negotiate in the follow-up China, our French side cannot meet some of your requirements for market opening.”
“Examples of failed negotiations can be seen everywhere, and the most worthy case is the sensational transatlantic free trade agreement last year. I remember that your country was also the opposing party at that time.”
“This is the case between country and country, not to mention the company?” Ye Qing returned with the same serious tone.
“If you insist on using additional orders as a weight, we also don’t mind taking the same countermeasures in product orders.”
“Mr. Buckmas, what do you think?”
Buckmas glared in anger, and turned to look at the representatives of several other countries.
Australia, which is not in the EU economic system, directly looks up to the sky. The order they used to take advantage has been fulfilled. There is no need to collude with France to cause trouble.
After all, France didn’t give money here.
Germany, which is also in the EU system, also confiscated money, but based on the principle of the same front on both sides, the German representative gave a look of “I will express dissatisfaction with actions in the follow-up”. As for the British side, his eyes were more innocent than the Austrian side. Because the British side has been fighting for Brexit in recent years and the negotiations have reached the third round, it is difficult to bridge the differences between the two sides. How can they bother with such trivial things that have nothing to do with them?
…
The actions of the German side to express dissatisfaction were manifested from the first negotiation on the introduction of the Thunderbolt.
In other words, the German side is just following the trend, because the automobile industry is an important pillar of German industry. In the world’s automotive industry, Germany accounts for about 24% of the world’s share. In this regard, even without France, Germany will be quite active.
“As far as I know, your Jilei Automobile has only obtained a vehicle quality inspection certificate from China.”
“However, the quality inspection standards of China Motors are different from ours. The European Union implements a unified inspection standard, namely EURO-NCAP. All new cars listed in Europe must pass the test and inspection.” German representative Chatters Lang said : “So, if Thunderbolt wants to be sold in Germany, it must first pass the unified testing standards implemented by the European Union.”
“Mr. Ye, I believe you have a good understanding of this. This is not for us to target Thunder cars, but for any car brand.”
Ye Qing nodded, he naturally didn’t make any sense at this point.
NCAP, known as the most professional and rigorous automotive test in the world.
The highlight of NCAP is the well-known five-star crash test in China. In the early years, domestic automakers didn’t know how powerful this test was. They were full of confidence and wanted to enter the European market. As a result, they were sent to the NCAP laboratory to play “bumper cars” and came back with a bag full of bits and pieces.
The results of the five-star collision test are all publicly available for anyone to view. This is also an important reference standard for discerning Europeans when buying a car.
European consumers will not pay for a car that fails to pass a collision, regardless of whether it can land in the European market. At the same time, the annual car crash video is also a topic that netizens all over the world talk about. Those vehicles that have achieved good results in collisions often have a global video click rate of over 100 million.
Of course, the crash test is just one link. Discerning European consumers will also comprehensively evaluate the car’s fuel consumption, operability, and braking performance.
The NCAP test is not set in stone. It will refer to the international automobile development level every year to change the test rules. Including the United States, many countries’ car tests also use their standards as a weather vane to simulate reference.
Needless to say, the following content can also be guessed.
The German representative Chatters requested that Lightning Motors must obtain a test score of 60 points or more before they can be sold in Germany. In addition, Germany will also levy tariffs in accordance with automobile import standards for lightning vehicles.
At the same time, Jilei Automobile has an extremely popular remote driving function in China. If it wants to be marketed in Germany, this function must be physically removed.
Tariff: 25%.
Value added tax: 17%.
Consumption tax: 20%.
“Mr. Ye, this tax rate is currently only our temporary tax rate based on China’s imported car tax rate.” German representative Chatters looked at Ye Qing and said slowly and proudly: “I’m sorry, in the past imported cars. China does not have any high-end cars that can enter the German market.”
“But the number of cars produced in our Germany exported to China is between 250,000 and 300,000 each year, and the consumption tax fluctuates between 1% and 40% according to the car’s displacement.”
“We lack the usual reference, so we will refer to the tax rate standards imposed on us by China.”
“The 20% consumption tax is also taken from the average standard, which is fair and just.”
Ye Qing smiled. There is nothing to say about the tax rate. After all, China has the same standard for Germany. It is also expected that the remote driving function has been removed. The traffic laws and car driving habits of the two countries are completely different.
However, the test score of 60 points or more is the obstacle set by the German side.
In the 2016 European crash test, the car that achieved the best score was 59 points. The reason given by the German representative of Chatters is that Thunderbolt is a brand-new new energy vehicle, which is very different from traditional fuel vehicles. In addition, as China’s first high-end family car to enter the German market, they must be cautious. Treat it to give the people a signal of peace of mind.
The domestic price of a Thunder Elite model is 420,000, and the price is 700,000 RMB after import tax increased by 62%. Even if it is put in Europe, it is also a high-end car standard.
In the eyes of the German representative, Chatters, the 60-point crash test score is a difficult task, and it is impossible for a lightning car to obtain it. This is also the pride of the century-old auto industry giant German.
In Ye Qing’s eyes, if the test score is less than 60 points, Europe begs Ye Qing to sell the Jilei car, and Ye Qing is unwilling to sell it.
As long as the test is fair, a score of less than 60 points is completely disgraced by the giant beast industry.
The safety performance of the cars manufactured by Behemoth is not the best in the world at the same price?
That’s still a gross price.
This is the truth. Of course, the giant animal industry will not pat the chest, saying that 60 points are definitely no problem.
