Time really flies—it’s been five years since I last saw Dr.-Ing. Hongjie Fang I was glad to reconnect with him through work. Dr. Fang is now the Principle Engineer of TÜV SÜD Mobility Division in Greater China/shanghai, focusing on consulting and training for automotive functional safety. During our conversation, he shared some insights on the challenges facing upstream steel companies in China’s automotive supply chain, particularly in the wake of overcapacity and industry transformation in steel, copper, and aluminum. These companies are caught in fierce competition, or as we call it, "involution." TUV SÜD's primary mission in Greater China is to help these companies gain customer recognition through high-quality consulting services, support their transformation, and guide them through the certification process. As a fully-owned subsidiary of Messe Düsseldorf in China Messe Düsseldorf Shanghai 杜塞尔多夫展览上海 share a similar direction with TUV SÜD. While assisting Chinese companies with their global expansion, we are also organizing specialized events to explore cross-industry solutions. I believe that through our combined efforts, we can provide more strategic guidance for our clients on sustainable development and industry transformation. By the way, we will be inviting TUV SÜD's experts on carbon emissions from the Transportation and Industry Divisions to the wire & Tube China exhibition at the end of September. If you're interested in learning more about Mobility direction transformation, carbon peaking, or carbon neutrality regarding automobile feel free to reach out to me or Dr. Fang! #IndustryTransformation #CarbonPeaking #CarbonNeutrality #EnergySaving

𝗘𝗨 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗦 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 #Valeo CEO Christophe Périllat advised at the Automobilwoche that European leadership must learn from its new US counterpart to emphasize more value generation in the EU. This will help: • maintain the industry's Quality and Safety standards • prevent further loses in local and international market share, and  • ultimately safe lives, when working to the same industry standards and values. I have alluded to this in my previous posts, but it is refreshing to see action around that. Lets hope such advice does not fall on deaf ears. #automotiveindustry #Safety #compliance #homologation #valuegeneration https://lnkd.in/eutdu5fa
