　　Some people are afraid of him, and some even hate him because he leaves no stone unturned, but more people thank him because it’s his ''fault-finding'' that has built up the product quality defence line and guarded the safety of thousands of families.

 

　　You Danlei, president of ACCU, gives people an easygoing feeling but his career path has not been easy at all.

 

　　After completing his master's and doctoral degrees inAmericaandNew Zealand, You Danlei has worked for many years in HyundaiKoreaand KotongAmerica. After returning toChinain 2003, he and his partners co-founded ACCU inSuzhouIndustrial Park, which has become a world-class strategic quality management consulting company. It has established branches in more than 30 countries and has nearly 1,000 quality professionals and technicians. ACCU has in-depth cooperation’s with Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Ford, GM, Bosch and other well-known enterprises for their production quality.

 

　　''Generally speaking, many cars can now safely go on the road and many elevators can safely operate, we have to pass this test first'' You Danlei told journalists that the quality management industry is not only entrusted by enterprises to find fault with products but also to help enterprises establish and optimize the whole process quality control system.

 

　　Recalling the beginning of his business, You Danlei described it as ''heart-shaking''.  ''For the first time, we went toGermanyto negotiate with our customers and told them that we were a Chinese company and could provide them with quality services. At the time, the Germans disdained us and asked 'Why do you help me with the quality of your own products inChina?'

 

　　Customers' casual enquiries hurt You Danlei's self-esteem but strengthened his determination to defend 'China's quality'. To this day, You Danlei eagerly learns from the advanced concepts and experiences of various countries, attracts high-end talents from all over the world to join the enterprise quality team and improves user adhesion through systematic and professional supporting services. Slowly, his way of quality protection is getting smoother and smoother, while the Germans who disdained him at the time are now his good friends.

 

　　You Danlei said that 'craftsman's spirit' was present in ancientChinabut was endowed with new connotation under the impetus of modern technology and the new economy.

 

　　''Take driverless cars as an example, the most urgent issue is the establishment and improvement of software quality systems. Imagine if there was a quality problem in the control software of a driverless car, what would happen? I'm afraid it's catastrophic'' You Danlei said that it is urgent forChinato upgrade and transform its manufacturing industry, improve its quality standards, enhance its quality awareness and establish a quality culture. ''Today, large foreign enterprises demand that quality remains at a high level. With more and more Chinese brands going global, scientific quality management is the most powerful weapon to win first place in the global competition.''

 

　　''Not only in action but also in thought, it is more profound, painful and lasting'' You Danlei said that quality is the core of craftsman's spirit. Pursuing the dream of quality requires the joint efforts of generations. ''I would like to be a stepping stone with feelings and dreams. Even if the mountains are high and the waters are deep, I will stick to it''
