Reborn to dominate technology

#145 - Take a crash test

Lu Haifeng understood perfectly well that the so-called crash tests were just a way for those foreign automotive giants to suppress Audi's cars in order to curb their development.

Sima Zhao's intentions are as plain as day, it's just that their own technology isn't up to par, so they can only resort to these underhanded tactics.

Lu Haifeng looked at Liu Jianyu and said, "Our Audi cars have snatched so much of their market share, threatening their position, how could they not cause us trouble?"

"Now that they're all jumping out, it's definitely a good thing for us. It's just a safety crash test."

"With the safety performance of our Audi cars, why should we be afraid of their flimsy products?"

Hearing this, Zhao Jianhua said with a smile, "The safety performance of our Audi A4 is absolutely superior to theirs. To try to suppress us in terms of safety performance is just courting death."

"I really don't know who gave them the courage to actually come knocking on our door to be beaten. It would have been better if they hadn't come, now that they're here, we'll chop off their claws."

"Otherwise, they'll just be idle all day, causing trouble behind our backs, it's annoying to even look at."

Regarding the safety of the Audi A4, both Lu Haifeng and Zhao Jianhua were very confident.

In previous internal tests, even those car brands claiming to be the safest in the world were still a bit behind the Audi A4 in terms of safety.

As for those few luxury brands in the same class, they were directly scrapped in head-on collision tests with the Audi A4, while only the bumper of the Audi A4 was severely damaged.

And in other test segments, the Audi A4 was far ahead of other brands in the same class, so now these automotive giants are competing on safety, which is directly kicking a thick and hard iron plate.

Lu Haifeng sneered: "Our Audi's rise is destined to encounter many troubles, but isn't this also an opportunity for us?"

"Since they want to play, then let's play a big one with them, let them see what real safety performance is, let them understand what a five-star safety crash is."

This world does not yet have a five-star safety crash test. Lu Haifeng is adding fuel to the fire. The safety performance test standards of this world are only divided into high, medium, and low three levels, and there is no such obvious division.

Even if those top luxury brands like Ben, Ma, and Bao Lai pass the high-end test, so what? When placed in the five-star crash test of the previous life, they can only reach the three-star standard at most.

And the Audi A4 had already passed the five-star safety crash test long ago, and the results were very good.

The five-star safety crash test is a rigorous safety test conducted by Lu Haifeng on Audi cars.

It is divided into five star ratings, with one-star rating being the lowest safety performance and five-star rating being the highest safety performance.

★★★★★ is called five-star, with a score of 33-40 points, indicating that the probability of serious injury to occupants is less than or equal to 10%;

★★★★ is called four-star, with a score of 25-32 points, indicating that the probability of serious injury to occupants is 11% - 20%;

★★★ is called three-star, with a score of 17-24 points, indicating that the probability of serious injury to occupants is 21% - 35%;

★★ is called two-star, with a score of 9-16 points, indicating that the probability of serious injury to occupants is 36% - 45%;

★ is called one-star, with a score of 1-8 points, indicating that the probability of serious injury to occupants is equal to or greater than 46%.

From the above, we can draw a conclusion: the higher the star rating, the higher the safety.

Therefore, in Lu Haifeng's view, only by passing the five-star safety test standard can it be considered a car that truly meets the safety performance standard. Failing to meet this standard can only be considered a substandard product.

Hearing Lu Haifeng's words, Zhao Jianhua said with a smile: "President Lu, if we test according to the Audi A4 standard, the three-star level has already reached the highest standard of current car safety rating."

"If we follow such strict testing standards, will we end up trapping ourselves in the future?"

How could Lu Haifeng not understand Zhao Jianhua's worries? But how could Lu Haifeng be so stupid? In the future, every Audi car product must pass the five-star crash test to be considered qualified.

How can we show the excellence of Audi cars if we are not strict? This time, he wants to tell the world that Audi cars only make high-quality products that are trustworthy.

Anyway, Audi cars are now being executed according to this five-star safety crash test, what is there to be afraid of? Compared to this, the automotive giants should be the most worried.

Based on their current product safety performance, it is estimated that they can only reach the three-star level standard.

So, Lu Haifeng said: "Think about our previous safety performance tests, it would be a waste if we didn't let them test it too now."

"Didn't they invite us to participate in the safety crash test?"

"Just say we agree, but this time we won't use international standards for evaluation, but our five-star safety crash test standard for evaluation."

"Therefore, we need to use more stringent tests to more intuitively reflect the difference between our Audi cars and those automotive giants' cars, otherwise, what can be detected with the current international standards?"

"Now that they're jumping out, it's just right. We'll use their hands to launch our own safety performance standards, eliminate the current international standards, and make our standards the most authoritative evaluation standards."

Hearing these words from Lu Haifeng, Zhao Jianhua nodded and said: "This plan is great. We can easily defeat them with our set of standards, and they won't be able to refute it."

"But will they agree?"

"They have no choice but to agree. You need to know that they are challenging us now, and this is their only chance. They have no right to refuse."

"If they don't agree, we can directly refuse. Who do you think will be panicking then?" Lu Haifeng said confidently.

Lu Haifeng would not indulge these giants. They just want to cause trouble? I'll add fuel to the fire.

After listening to Lu Haifeng's words, Zhao Jianhua also nodded. Now they can't afford not to agree.

Moreover, this set of five-star testing standards is very fair and just. All participants undergo the same tests, and no one can tamper with them, so they probably won't object.

Lu Haifeng remembered something and said: "Tell them that if they want us to participate in this international car safety performance test, the location must be in our country."

"If they don't agree, then forget it. I don't have time to play with them. They want to cause trouble and also want us to go abroad to play with them, there's no such good thing."

"These old automotive giants still think it's the past, that they are the authority. I won't indulge them."

"We must also have our pride. From now on, it's not us accommodating them, but they should be accommodating us."
