Chapter 590 It is not easy to understand foreign standards
Director Mu's guess was correct. Not long after he started working in the afternoon, Zhao Guoyang received a call from Director Du Hao of the Inherited Assets Administration.
After some greetings, Director Du smiled and said, "Researcher Zhao, you should know about your joining our ATV Standardization Technical Committee, right?"
After hearing Director Du’s question, Zhao Guoyang quickly responded: “Yes, Director Du, I have already received this news from our Director Mu in the morning.”
Du Hao followed up and said, "That's good! Researcher Zhao, you should have a clear idea about this, right?"
"I heard what Mr. Li said. It seems that he will not ask too much about the standardization this time, but he will give it to you to be responsible. However, he has explained to us that when you go to the capital, you must first find him..."
After Director Du said this, Zhao Guoyang twitched his mouth and felt helpless.
Perhaps because he knew him so well, Mr. Li simply became a hand-off manager this time and asked him to be responsible for drafting this standard.
In the early 1990s, the "all-terrain car" was still rare in the country.
Even if there is, it is just foreign-related companies that come back to play on their own and will not be used in transportation.
Therefore, the formulation of the "all-terrain vehicle" standard basically requires the All-terrain vehicle standardization technical committee to start from scratch.
Of course, "all-terrain vehicles" now have two technical standards: "American Standard" and "European Standard" around the world.
If Huaxia wants to compile a set of standards by itself, many of them can refer to these two standards.
However, Zhao Guoyang did not intend to simply copy the "American Standard" and "European Standard" "all-terrain vehicle" standards. He wanted to compile a more detailed set and more in line with the industry standards of China or Asians.
While thinking about the issue of "standard preparation", Zhao Guoyang listened to Director Du's story.
"Researcher Zhao, the first plenary meeting of our ATV Standardization Technical Committee will be held in Beijing on July 10th. According to Mr. Li's wishes, you'd better come here one or two days in advance. He has some questions to discuss with you and study..."
"Okay, no problem, Director Du!" Zhao Guoyang quickly agreed when he heard this.
Seeing that Zhao Guoyang simply responded, Du Hao became much more relaxed.
He smiled and said, "Researcher Zhao, there is more than a week before the meeting begins. You can prepare more these days. At that time, there may be one or two experts on the Planning Commission to consult you some questions. In short, make more preparations!"
Du Hao didn't say this very clearly, but Zhao Guoyang could still hear what he meant at once.
Obviously, the experts from the Planning Commission must be unhappy that they, a young boy, served as the "deputy editor-in-chief".
After all, many of the previous industry rules were formulated by the Planning Commission. This time they were allowed to be supporting roles, so of course the other party would have some opinions.
After understanding this, Zhao Guoyang smiled and replied: "Director Du, don't worry, I know what to do!"
After hearing what he said, Du Hao completely let go of his worries.
During the last meeting in Beijing, Du Hao was already concerned about Zhao Guoyang, a "special researcher" and had a lot of knowledge about him.
In Du Hao's opinion, just from the mechanical attainments, this researcher Zhao is really qualified to be the title of "industry master".
At the last meeting, he showed his understanding and understanding of "all-terrain vehicles" beyond those of these experts and many scholars.
Du Hao believes that as long as this researcher Zhao becomes serious, the experts from the Planning Commission will not be able to make things difficult for him.
Not to mention, behind Researcher Zhao, there is a super heavyweight figure, Mr. Li.
After the call with Director Du, Zhao Guoyang put down the phone and his thoughts gradually turned to the two upcoming visits in August.
When he returned from Czechoslovakia, Zhao Guoyang and Mr. Li had a conversation.
It is basically confirmed that in early August, a delegation will be taken to the North American market, the world's largest all-terrain vehicle market, for an inspection and visit.
In addition, in late August, there was a team visiting Africa on the "Ministry of Foreign Trade" who needed Zhao Guoyang to accompany him.
Coupled with the upcoming trip to the capital in early July, Zhao Guoyang's own time was really tightened.
I guess there is no time to check it out on "Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company" and "SMS Engineering Machinery Group Company".
On the "Rongguang Machinery Factory", the strategy of creating the "fashion beauty" brand has been decided. On the other hand, just go over and check the progress, and it will not waste too much time on your factory.
However, Zhao Guoyang was originally planning to design one or two more representative "jewellery". Judging from his current state of constant progress, it is probably delayed again.
"There's no way, I just hope that after a while, I have time to take care of my own affairs."
Putting aside the boredom in his heart, Zhao Guoyang shook his head and said to himself.
After a while of melancholy, Zhao Guoyang opened the drawer and picked up a copy of "All-terrain Vehicle American Standards" and started to check it out.
This book was prepared for herself after Zhao Guoyang had decided to carry out the "all-terrain vehicle" project.
The book was locked in the desk for a long time, and finally saw the light of day again.
Speaking of which, before his rebirth, Zhao Guoyang also came into contact with the product "all-terrain vehicle", but he just didn't understand it deeply.
However, in the era where he was, the standards of "all-terrain vehicles" had become increasingly perfect, which was much more detailed than the European and American standards in the early 1990s.
With some previous understanding, now looking at this standard, many things become simple.
In the era before Zhao Guoyang's rebirth, the export of China's all-terrain vehicles was mainly in the American and European markets.
Occasionally, some markets in Australia and Africa are shipped to some markets, and the other party generally uses the standards of these two major markets to implement them.
Therefore, in most cases, as long as you understand the standards of "America" and "Europe" in this industry, the barriers to producing "all-terrain vehicles" in China will basically no longer exist.
However, it is not an easy task to understand the standards of the United States and European countries.
Before he was reborn, Zhao Guoyang knew a negative example.
After European countries updated the standards for "all-terrain vehicles", their European Commission's non-food rapid warning system issued a consumer warning to a brand of electronic mini all-terrain vehicles produced in China.
The notification country for this case is France. The content of the notification is: Because during use, the driver's feet are prone to be blocked by the rear wheel and foot pedals, there is a risk of injury; the width of the direction handle is greater than the width measured at the front wheel, which does not comply with the EU Machinery Directive and relevant standards.
In fact, one of the main reasons why this Chinese manufacturer made this mistake was that they did not update European standards in a timely manner and failed to notice a new content added by others.
The ultimate consequence is that all vehicles produced by the manufacturer were notified and greeted, and the company suffered heavy losses.
Of course, in this life after rebirth, even the EU has not been established, and no company in China is qualified to produce "all-terrain vehicles", so there will naturally be no such accident.
However, this incident was enough to make Zhao Guoyang alert.
What he is responsible for now is to formulate domestic standards to improve them as much as possible and move closer to the US and European standards.
After all, most of the "all-terrain vehicles" produced in China in the future will definitely be sold to North America and Europe.
In addition, Zhao Guoyang had another idea in his mind, which was that he hoped that the standard he set would become a model for non-European and North American countries.
In other words, in the future, as long as the North American and European markets are released, all all-terrain vehicle standards will follow the domestic standards, namely the "Huaxia Standard".
To achieve this, in addition to the set of standards you set yourself, it is more detailed and practical than the "European Standard" and "American Standards", the more important thing is that it is easy to understand and promote.
In this regard, both Europeans and Americans are doing very well.
For example, in terms of the standard of "all-terrain vehicles", they have many ambiguities.
To give a simple example, the European Standard requires passenger handrails on the passenger protection column of the (UTV) to be equipped with passenger handrails; while the American Standard did not specifically point out this amount, but just said that there is protection.
Then this brings up a question: is this kind of protection "hard" or "soft" protection? If you don't have a handrail and install a structure similar to a protective net, is it allowed?
European standards have the same problems in some other payments.
Under European standards, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) are divided into two categories: Class I is an atv that is only for one operator and no passengers, and Class III is an atv that is for one operator, or an operator and a passenger.
These two types of AtVs have very simple basic requirements for drivers, which is over 16 years old.
But it does not make any restrictions or requirements for adult drivers.
Let’s give the simplest example. If an adult suffers from Down syndrome, his IQ is not a problem, but his body is very short and it is difficult for him to touch the accelerator even if he sits on an AtV.
In this case, if the driver has an accident, according to this standard, the manufacturer may lose all his underwear.
How to avoid these issues and make your "Chinese Standard" more perfect and more representative is something that Zhao Guoyang needs to consider now.
After carefully studying the document at hand for a while, Zhao Guoyang already had a rough understanding of the current "All-terrain vehicle American standards".
