Chapter 553 1.12% Quality Issues

The emergence of the Lonza standard has put the upgrading of emission standards on the agenda in Europe and the United States.

Their thinking is, "Even China, a backward country, has better emission standards than Europe and America, so what are we waiting for?"

Most importantly, raising emission standards is entirely beneficial to society and the country.

After comprehensive consideration, Longyi's ranking standards were adopted by these European and American countries.

They discovered that Longyi's emission standards were not particularly difficult for current automotive manufacturing technologies, although technological innovation certainly requires costs.

However, if these automakers want to further improve upon the Longyi standard, the cost will be beyond their means.

The market might collapse.

This is not what Western countries want to see. They can bear the collapse of the automobile industry alone, but no one can withstand the chain reaction.

Therefore, almost all countries have tacitly chosen the Lonzo I standard as the next-generation emission standard. Of course, it cannot be implemented immediately and requires a buffer period.

This timeframe provides these automakers with opportunities for technological innovation.

As a result, many car companies are very unhappy with Longteng.

But there's no other way but to keep up; otherwise, we'll be banned from selling, which means bankruptcy.

European and American countries have offered subsidies for electric vehicles, which has significantly lowered the price of Longteng Auto's electric version, gaining widespread support and recognition from consumers. While Europe and America also provide subsidies for hybrid electric vehicles, these are less than those for pure electric vehicles.

Not only in Europe and America, but also in China, subsidies have been introduced for electric and hybrid vehicles. This is to encourage consumers to buy hybrid or pure electric vehicles.

On July 11, Si Kun from Zhouxu brought good news: the underground construction of the Zhouxu infrastructure core was basically completed, and the above-ground construction had begun.

Chen Yu was overjoyed at the news, but he was still somewhat worried about the quality of the project. Having learned from his previous experiences, he dared not be careless this time.

After systematic testing, 1.12% of the work was found to be non-compliant with construction standards. Chen Yu hadn't expected that there would be even a few percentage points of substandard construction quality.

"Si Kun, the project quality is 1.12 percent substandard. I will mark the substandard parts!" This time, Chen Yu did not use any extreme measures.

Xiaoyou told him that 65% of the 1.12% of the project quality problems were due to the project being completed too quickly, resulting in insufficient bonding of the building materials.

This is why Chen Yu didn't ship the goods. A 0.3% or 0.4% defect in the project quality is to be expected; it's impossible to be perfect. However, Chen Yu was still somewhat uncomfortable. Human greed is truly incurable. So many people have paid a heavy price, yet some still act recklessly. Do they really think they can get away with what they've done?!

It's a small-scale, limited-range approach, using materials that are not lower than the high standards adopted, but rather an attempt to extract some benefit, like sand being poured out little by little in an hourglass.

However, what they didn't expect was that Chen Yu possessed a system that could detect the gap between construction and design standards. The system's comprehensive calculations showed that if the project was carried out according to the system's design and engineering implementation plan, the engineering error would only be around one ten-thousandth.

"There's still 1.12%?!" Si Kun was dumbfounded. He had investigated very thoroughly, but he never expected there to be still some left. Was this Crown Prince some kind of deity?!

Many of the projects have already undergone several quality checks.

"Of course, there's also the issue that 65% of that 1.12% is due to errors in the way materials were used and the timing of the construction, leading to unsuccessful bonding. The rest is because the materials weren't up to my standards; they used materials that were second to none, intending to make a quick profit."

"I've sent you all the details, please check them!" Chen Yu said.

"Okay, I will definitely investigate thoroughly!" Si Kun took a deep breath. He even knew the effects of using the materials. This was too incredible. At this moment, Si Kun panicked more than ever before. He felt that Chen Yu was an omnipotent god.

These material issues are generally not detectable without specific inspection.

However, the scale of the project undertaken by Zhou Xu was so enormous that it was eventually discovered.

After hanging up the phone, I immediately turned on my computer to check the information Chen Yu had sent me.

Upon seeing the information marked on the document, Si Kun took another deep breath.

"Xiao Li, notify the heads and chief engineers of Zones X11, A12, B1, etc., to come to my office for a meeting!" The construction of Zhouxu was divided into zones, and each zone had a head and chief engineer.

About an hour later, everyone had arrived, and the huge conference room was now packed with people.

"Do you all know why I called you all here today?!" Si Kun said with a forced smile. This made everyone uneasy; they knew that Si Kun's reaction meant something must have happened. They just didn't know what it was that made Si Kun call them all over.

Has the project run into problems again?

They were well aware of the engineering quality problems that had occurred, and countless businessmen, engineers, and officials had been arrested, some executed, some sentenced to life imprisonment, and some sentenced to ten or twenty years in prison. In short, the cost was extremely high.

Most importantly, the fines were extremely heavy. It was comparable to the crackdown campaigns of the 80s.

In particular, the recent national inspections and audits of engineering quality have once again brought misfortune to countless developers, real estate executives, officials, contractors, material suppliers, and so on. Some have been arrested, and those who caused accidents due to major engineering problems have been executed or sentenced to life imprisonment.

The construction industry was thrown into a state of panic; no one dared to cut corners, and all ongoing projects were halted and rebuilt. There was no way around it; the scale was too large, the review process too strict, and previous protectors were investigated and arrested.

We have to be careful.

"Stop talking, I'll show you some data!" Si Kun said, turning on the 80-inch monitor behind him, which displayed a summary data report that Chen Yu had given him.

Project quality issue report!

The bold red font was particularly eye-catching, especially the area number and the percentage of engineering quality problems that followed, which told them that there must be another problem with the engineering quality. They were very curious about when it was discovered and how it was done, as they had been paying close attention to this issue.

"Shut up, huh? Are you all mute?! How many times have I told you not to play tricks, not to slack off, not to neglect your duties? You didn't listen! Do you really think no one can find out?!"
