Chapter 169 Quality Inspection Center: Unbelievable! (1 more please order!)
After 2000, as people's living standards improved, commodity transactions became more frequent.
Home appliances such as mobile phone MP3 players, DVDs, TVs, refrigerators, and computers are increasingly entering the lives of ordinary people.
At the same time, consumers' awareness of rights and interests has also begun to awaken.
In the past, if there was a quality problem when purchasing a product, most users would think it was their bad luck and would not go to the merchant to complain.
Or maybe you go to the merchant and the merchant won't acknowledge the account at all.
But things are different now. Consumers pay great attention to their own consumer rights. Relevant state departments have also legislated on consumer rights to ensure everyone's rights.
This revision of Renren Daily and its willingness to pay attention to and report on the false propaganda of Lingyue MP3 are also based on the above background.
A reporter from Renren Daily came to the Jiangzhou City Quality Supervision and Management Department.
The quality supervision department has obtained dozens of Lingyue MP3 players. These MP3 players were randomly sampled from ADLINK factories and Gome sales stores.
In fact, what surprised the quality supervision department was that both Gome and Lingyue companies were very cooperative with this sampling inspection, unlike some companies that obstructed and even gave red envelopes for bribes.
I learned that reporters from Renren Daily would come to interview me.
The quality inspection department still attaches great importance to it. After all, media of this level rarely come to Jiangzhou.
All quality inspection procedures are carried out in strict accordance with the regulations without any laxity.
Reporter Peng from Renren Daily arrived in Jiangzhou without stopping at all. Reporter Peng quickly arrived at the quality inspection center.
After a simple welcome ceremony, Director Wang, the head of the Quality Inspection Center, briefly described the situation to Reporter Peng.
Director Wang was also complaining in private. If all media hadn't been rushing to report on it, this matter wouldn't have been so complicated at all.
Reporter Peng has been working in the news for so many years, and she also feels that it is just an MP3 battery life issue, and there must be someone behind it, otherwise it will never become a hot topic in various media.
Reporter Peng asked several questions to Director Wang.
"Director Wang, from a professional perspective, Lingyue's battery life can reach 15 days. Is this false advertising?"
It was the first time for him to accept questions from such a high-profile media, so of course Director Wang had to give full play to his professional expertise.
Director Wang said: "Our Quality Inspection Center attaches great importance to this matter. You have consulted experts and technicians in many industries."
“Lingyue MP3’s advertised comprehensive battery life is up to 15 days, and the comprehensive usage here is approximately two to three hours of use per day.”
"We calculated based on the maximum limit of three hours, the battery life of Lingyue MP3 should be able to reach 45 hours."
"We have seen the batteries used in Lingyue MP3, and they use lithium batteries. The brand with the most advanced lithium battery technology currently is Sony, and the battery life of Sony batteries of the same specification cannot meet this requirement."
Reporter Peng was indeed very professional. She then asked: "That means Lingyue is indeed involved in false propaganda, right?"
Of course, it is impossible for Director Wang to answer such a pointed question with a yes or a no.
Director Wang laughed and said, "We haven't tested it yet. What if Lingyue's battery can really be used for more than 40 hours?"
Director Wang himself didn’t believe what he said, and neither did Reporter Peng.
Reporter Peng thought in his mind that it would be great if any Xiaguo technology company could really develop a lithium battery with a battery life of forty or fifty hours.
Reporter Peng knows very well that Xia's current science and technology is far different from that of the West, the East, Japan and South Korea, and it cannot be caught up in a day or two.
Quality inspection center, testing begins.
The test process is actually very simple. Fully charge ten Lingyue MP3s, and then use the headphones paired with them to continuously play songs at a medium volume. As long as 9 MP3s meet the requirements, the quality is considered qualified.
…
Shenzhen City, Netac Company.
Netac reported this operation directly to Lingyue, but he never thought about whether the battery of Lingyue MP3 could last 40 hours.
Because Netac was confident enough, Deng Yun and his subordinate technicians absolutely did not believe that a third-rate Xiaguo Technology Company would possess first-class lithium battery technology.
Deng Yun is very satisfied with the negative reports on Lingyue from various media outlets.
In this wave of media reports, Netac used his own connections and some money. He believed that through this wave of operations, Lingyue would lose consumers' confidence in the market.
And Deng Yun has really seen the results. During this period, the sales of Netac MP3 have indeed increased significantly.
In some stores, the sales volume of Netac has exceeded that of Lingyue, becoming the best-selling MP3 product under a thousand yuan.
Netac notified Sony of the relevant situation. There were two purposes for doing so. One was to share the fruits of victory, and the other was to tell Sony that Netac's Xia country still had some strength.
The cooperation between Sony and Netac is sure to make money without losing money.
Of course, Sony was very happy. Sony was about to launch a new MP3, and the most threatening competitor was eliminated. Of course, the price of the new product would increase.
Forty hours were very difficult. Reporter Peng and his team patiently waited for the news in Jiangzhou.
During this period, Reporter Peng and his team came to Zhou Linghua's ADLINK factory as an unannounced visit, just to take a look at the production process of Lingyue MP3.
Reporter Peng has secretly visited many factories. It stands to reason that those factories whose quality is not up to standard or whose products are falsely advertised have very bad production processes.
But when reporter Peng came to the ADLINK factory, she was shocked by what she saw.
Completely standardized production process, each step is very clear, and every link of production has strict quality control requirements.
Reporter Peng has only seen this kind of standardized factory in Japan and South Korea.
How could such an advanced factory make false propaganda?
Reporter Peng put a question mark in his mind.
It was at this time that Director Wang made a call to Reporter Peng.
"Teacher Peng, please come over here. Our test is completed."
Reporter Peng quickly returned to the quality inspection center and asked about the testing situation.
Director Wang said in disbelief: "Each of the 10 MP3 players has a battery life of more than 45 hours."
Director Wang handed the quality inspection report to Reporter Peng.
Reporter Peng quickly asked the quality inspection report to be opened. The quality inspection report contained detailed quality inspection procedures and quality inspection standards.
Sure enough, each MP3 player can play songs continuously for 45 hours.
Director Wang said with some surprise: "It's unbelievable that Lingyue's lithium battery has better performance than Sony's!"
