Chapter 1167 You are really... tall!
We all know when the car was invented, but when did it enter China?
The one that the foreigners presented to Karl Lagerfeld was definitely not the first one.
It is generally believed that by 1931, domestically produced cars had already appeared in China.
Please note that we are talking about domestically produced cars here.
However, China's automobile industry did not truly become a large-scale industry until the Great Stride in 1956.
The dilapidated motorcycle factories and various automobile factories that the Red Star Factory passively took over from the capital's industries were products of that period.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the capital's industry. The development of the times has the inevitable trial and error nature. If everyone is so cautious, there will be no need for society to develop and change.
From the founding of the People's Republic of China until this year, 1987, our demand for automobiles was mainly for military use and industrial and agricultural transportation.
Therefore, the national automobile industry that emerged during the Great Leap Forward period was mainly based on trucks.
This is also the important reason why Factory No. 17 worked hard to produce the Jiefang brand automobile.
Including Factory No. 17, domestic automobile manufacturers have adopted, imitated or borrowed methods at different load levels to launch domestic trucks.
Li Xuewu learned this point thoroughly when he proposed to develop the Antelope Automobile.
The Antelope was derived from the Willys battlefield jeep and has excellent off-road performance, but some of its technology is too old.
Therefore, after replacing and updating some of the technologies, Willys immediately exuded a different youthful vitality.
It's like when a woman uses hyaluronic acid, she remains the same person, but it feels fresh when she uses it.
Why is the Red Star Antelope so popular? Even though it is an imitation product injected with hyaluronic acid, it has still become a car product that many companies are eager to buy.
In addition to the low price, the most important reason is the serious lack of Jeep brands in the country.
Let me put it this way, you go on a blind date with two women, one is 18 years old, but weighs about 38 pounds, is extremely ugly, and can kill you with one sitting; the other is years old, has used high-tech on her face, has a slim figure, and looks beautiful. Which one would you choose?
The reason for this embarrassment is that during the Great Leap Forward period, the emphasis was placed on productivity tools, while the functional needs of other vehicles were neglected.
Of course, a small number of buses and off-road vehicles were also produced during this period. Sedans were mainly used as official vehicles and their output was relatively small.
At that time, the most imitated products were Russian products, but there were also many models copied from countries such as Japan, the United States, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, etc. The sources were very wide.
When Li Xuewu first came back, he didn't pay much attention. He just thought the cars on the road were flashy.
After the Security Department started cooperating with the Technical Department on automobile maintenance business, he began to study it carefully and also learned from Xia Zhongquan.
The more you learn and observe, the happier you will be.
Look at it, the front of the car is from China, the roof is from France, the rear is from Italy, and the engine is made by a ghost...
Let me put it this way, even if the designers of these cars came, they would doubt their lives when they saw these cobbled-together cars.
The International brand of cars is not a joke, there really is such a brand, but it is from the United States, International Harvester (see what I think, that’s how it was spelled).
Li Xuewu explained to Gu Weijie what era it was before the Red Star Factory held the supply chain conference?
Yes, everyone still remembers, it was the Spring and Autumn Period.
So are there any further subdivisions going forward?
Li Xuewu believes that the period of great strides starting in 1955 and 1956 was also a watershed for the domestic automobile industry.
The big leap ended, that is, before 1960 he called it the barbaric era of the automobile industry, and after 1960 it was the Spring and Autumn Period.
In the barbaric era, every province, important city and even district and county with strong industrial capabilities established their own automobile manufacturing plants.
If you count on your fingers, you will find that we are talking about car manufacturing plants here, not car parts factories or repair shops.
There are so many! So many that when Li Xuewu looked at the list of automobile industry industries in the materials, he felt that China's automobile industry had surpassed that of China.
However, without Sha Qizhi's explanation, he himself knew that a large number of the companies on the list were already defunct in name only.
Among the corporate and industrial representatives invited this time, there are many former automotive industry managers or engineers.
Why do you say it was in the past?
Quite simply, the Big Step has been determined in the course of history to be a failed attempt.
It rises because of policies and falls with policies.
After the test of time, only the backbone of the automotive industry remains.
It's very simple to say, just four words: the waves wash away the sand, but this process is also very painful and costly.
Just like the transition from the barbaric period to the Spring and Autumn Period in history, many companies collapsed and never stood up again.
Although both are imitations of excellent foreign automobile brands, the domestic technical reserves and reserves of automobile engineers vary greatly.
The capital and the Magic City have absolute technical strength, and their preserved automobile industries are also complete.
In the list in Li Xuewu's hand, the capital and Shanghai have the most vehicle industrial factories.
Some of the more famous ones include Fengtai Auto Repair Factory, Beijing Auto Factory, Beijing Second Auto, Beijing Passenger Factory, Beijing Motorcycle Factory, Auto Repair Factory No. 4, etc.
In Shanghai, there are SAIC, SASAC, SAIC Motor, auto decoration factories, agricultural machinery manufacturing companies, truck manufacturers, etc.
You think Beijing Auto, Beijing Second Automobile Works and SAIC are more famous, and the others are just random, right?
Yes and no. The difference lies not in the size of the factory or manufacturing capacity, but in the R&D capabilities.
Why is Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant so awesome?
Because it can produce cars, trucks, jeeps, and even support other cities in building automobile manufacturing plants.
Just for the 212 car model, there are many small factories copying it.
The Red Star Factory cannot match the vision and strength.
Of course, the Red Star Factory’s automobile manufacturing plant is a tertiary industry and is responsible for its own profits and losses. It is not the same as the Beijing Automobile Factory.
They would like to stop supporting, but they rely on policies for their livelihood, so they have to do so.
Because companies are not currently allowed to go bankrupt in the country, the industry will intervene and assets must be protected.
Therefore, the barbaric era was able to move towards the Spring and Autumn era in a very stable state.
In the process of resource integration, that is, the transition from the barbaric era to the Spring and Autumn Period, things gradually went through elimination, mergers, and acquisitions, forming a situation of one big, four small, and a lot of things.
Needless to say, the first one is Factory No. 17, which is the birthplace of the domestic automobile industry and the foundation of the national industry.
Factory No. 150 was established after the founding of the People's Republic of China, mainly to produce the Jiefang CA10 medium-sized trucks imitated from the Russian Zis72 and the Hongqi CA large luxury cars.
In the early days of its establishment, Factory 17 was mainly engaged in technical cooperation and imitation with the Russians, and later on it developed relatively strong independent research and development capabilities.
It must be mentioned here that many automobile industries, including Second Automobile Works, were actually supported and built by Factory No. 17.
Its R&D and production capabilities are terrifying, and it is also the company that Red Star Factory most hopes to cooperate with at this supply chain conference.
Because the No. 17 Factory is located in the Northeast, the Red Star Factory is also planning to build a warehouse-type supply chain in Gangcheng or Fengcheng.
The cluster of machining enterprises, centered around Fengcheng No. 1 Machine Factory, mainly serves the industrial supply chain of Hongxing Factory.
If he could get orders or parts support from Factory No. 17, Lao Li would immediately call Jing Yunong in Fengcheng and ask her to acquire land, build a warehouse, and start this project.
But both Mr. Li and Mr. Li know that this goal is difficult to achieve.
Just think about it, even the Beijing Automobile Factory had to be so cautious and difficult to turn around, let alone the country's most important equipment.
However, it is difficult to sign large projects, but there should be no problem in testing the waters with small projects.
At yesterday's exhibition, Li Xuewu could clearly see that the leaders from Factory 17 stayed at the booth for a long time.
According to the feedback from the tour guide, the leaders and technical engineers of Factory 17 asked the most detailed questions and collected the most comprehensive materials.
They even compared materials and stood next to the Red Star Antelope car to discuss the feasibility of parts supply one by one.
Therefore, Li Xuewu paid special attention to them on the morning of the next day, when the supply chain companies were presenting their achievements.
Let’s go back to the big one and four small ones.
Now that we have talked about the big one, it is not difficult to guess the four small ones, which are Nanjing Automobile, Beijing Automobile, JAC and SAIC.
The strongest of the four small ones is SAIC, which was established on the basis of the automobile decoration factory left over from the old Shanghai, by merging the internal combustion engine parts factory, automobile chassis factory, truck repair factory, and some other small factories.
The main products are the Modou brand SH760 sedan, Fengshou brand tractors and industrial and agricultural hand tractors.
Interesting, isn’t it? SAIC actually also produces tractors, just like Ferrari.
So don’t think it’s so retro and cool just because you see those idiots on TikTok driving their Ferrari tractors to the 4S shop for maintenance.
I would only say you are very impressive if you drive a Fengshou tractor or a worker-and-peasant walking tractor to SAIC's 4S shop for maintenance!
Because in foreign countries, you can buy a Ferrari if you have money, but in China at this time, even your ancestors can’t buy it!
Hehe, when you think about it this way, don’t you feel that the identity verification that Rolls-Royce used to carry out and not selling cars to people who are not good people is meaningless?
In fact, just like the girl, once that layer of window paper (film) is punctured, it becomes worthless.
Look at those famous internet celebrities. Isn’t it difficult for them to buy trousers after they make money?
The reason is so simple, it was hard to get a penny out of my pocket before, but now I want what I want!
What is being played on is the purchasing psychology of the poor who are eager to show off their wealth after they suddenly become rich. It can be regarded as a kind of emotional satisfaction.
The second of the four small towns is the Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant, formerly the Beijing No. 69 Automobile Accessories Factory. Its main product is the BJ212 jeep, which is an imitation of the Russian Gaz.
On the second day of the supply chain conference, Vice President Wang of Beijing Automobile Manufacturing Plant continued to attend the meeting and watched more carefully.
Sha Qizhi reported that Vice President Wang brought three old men here today, who are the technical masters of the factory.
It seems obvious that he no longer trusts yesterday's idiot, and he also attaches more importance to the supply chain conference.
What are they looking at?
Look at the engine, look at the Gazelle chassis, look at the parts supply exhibition of Gemini and Red Bull.
In fact, the Beijing Automobile Factory also tried to produce small cars and three-wheeled motorcycles, which are the Jinggangshan brand that we learned about in elementary school textbooks.
However, at that time, the demand for light buses was limited and they were not mass-produced.
Later, when we wanted to produce it again, the technology was not up to par and we lost the opportunity for mass production.
The largest manufacturer of the four small, medium and light trucks is not Beijing Second Automobile Works, but Jinling Automobile Manufacturing Plant, which was also established after 49.
The light truck BJ130 of Beijing Second Automobile Works was only developed last year. The production line was designed and built by Red Star Factory and Beijing Second Machinery Plant. Gu Litong, vice president of Second Automobile Works, said that the official mass production will start next year.
Don’t think that Second Automobile Works is slow. It started research and development last year and built the factory last year, but it has not yet started production. It will not be officially put into production until next year. In fact, it is already very fast.
There are a few lucky ones like Red Star Factory who can spend so much money and still get support. Beijing Second Automobile Works is the regular development template.
According to the historical progress, Beijing Second Automobile Works would not be officially put into production until 69.
With Li Xuewu, the moth flapping its wings vigorously, they achieved mass production one year ahead of schedule. The combination of advanced production technology and equipment and advanced assembly line design is already a great improvement.
The Jinling Automobile Manufacturing Plant was not as lucky as Beijing Second Automobile Works. It started manufacturing cars in 51. Its main product was the Yuejin light truck, which was modeled after the Gaz-21. Its engine came from the Gaz M sedan.
Look, what Li Xuewu said was right!
Even if Gaz's designer came, he would have to look at it for a long time before he could figure out whose car it was modeled after.
The last of the four small ones is the Jinan Automobile Manufacturing Plant, formerly the Jinan Automobile Parts Factory. Its main products are the 8-ton heavy-duty truck Yellow River series, which were modeled after the Skoda 702 series.
Don’t think that the Jiqi Factory is really small because it ranks last among the four small ones. This is just the result of comparing the models produced and their influence.
What do you think of as one big and four small?
These are the top five car companies in the country, which is equivalent to the five gangsters of the United Nations!
If the Red Star Factory had not overtaken others by taking an unconventional path, how could it have invited them to the conference as the host, and how could it have made them tremble with fear by acting as a troublemaker?
It can be said that the big one and four small ones represent half of the domestic automobile market and have a very high voice.
Li Xuewu didn't know what the representatives of the five companies talked about upstairs in the guesthouse last night, nor did he know the outcome of the conversation.
But judging from the attitudes of the five company leaders after the exhibition started today, it seems that the talks were not going very smoothly.
But we can't just judge the article by the faces of these old men. Do you believe that their expressions will reveal secrets?
Stop joking, this isn’t Li Xuewu’s first day in the martial arts world.
However, this does not prevent Red Star Factory from showing more attention and concern to the five major factories.
Director Du issued a guiding document overnight, calling for cooperation instead of confrontation, supporting other small and medium-sized automakers, and establishing complete automotive industry manufacturing standards.
This time, the Red Star Factory flattered the right person, and its supply chain and warehouse supply standards were highly valued by the leaders above.
Don’t think that your leader doesn’t understand the supply chain. Even if he doesn’t understand, you have already learned about it.
The recording of Li Xuewu’s speech on the first morning has been made into a report video and sent to Haili for reference and study.
Learning videos, like later learning CDs, are often labeled with {Reference News}, which is a very important means of preserving information.
The one that is open to the public is called {News Brief}, and the one that is used for internal study is called {Reference News}, which is the so-called internal reference.
Don’t think that internal reference is mysterious or of high level. If you have done a good job in farming and created value, you can also write it into an article and use it as reference news.
Hongxing Factory is a key enterprise in Beijing's industry and also a key development enterprise under the ministry's management.
Important development results have been achieved in the field of automobile manufacturing, which have had a significant impact and can be implemented on a large scale and widely. Do you think this news is important?
If Li Huaide was not afraid that he would not be able to speak well, he would never miss this opportunity.
Look at the big guys in the sea in later generations who organize study sessions. What kind of treatment do the people who teach them receive?
An expert scholar, an industry leader, and a key target of protection and development, Jian is in the emperor's heart.
Although Li Xuewu did not go to the sea to attend classes in person, this indirect lecture can better reflect his familiarity with the business as a front-line manager and his mastery of high-end technology.
The country lacks management talents and even more so technical talents. If someone understands both technology and management, and has a broad vision and forward-looking thinking, how do you think this person will be viewed by leaders?
Let's examine his work experience and organizational experience. Well, he has shed blood, received awards, and created outstanding results in many professional fields. What do you think of such a person?
Li Xuewu said that he couldn't go to Japan not just to appease his family, he just couldn't leave now.
Unless you are going abroad with a particularly high-level group, key talents can only develop domestically.
Judging from the situation on the first day, Director Du was present in person, and all the manufacturers' representatives, including the five major factories, were very clear about the influence of Red Star Factory this time.
Therefore, even if the five major factories discuss behind closed doors, they cannot destroy the Red Star Factory's legitimate reputation.
Unless they poach Li Xuewu, start anew, and set up a trade management center.
But this is absolutely impossible. Not to mention Li Xuewu who has a complete career plan, even Li Huaide will not let him go.
Even though Mr. Li is adjusting Li Xuewu's position and powers, it is absolutely impossible to poach him.
Even if you try to steal his wife, he will not let go of Li Xuewu.
Selecting Li Xuewu to be trained as the successor is not only about taking care of Li Xuewu and promising him great things, but also about ensuring the continuity of policies and foundations after he leaves the Red Star Factory.
The leaders of the five major factories attach great importance to Li Xuewu, just as Li Xuewu attaches importance to the five major factories.
When Li Xuewu decided to develop the automobile industry last year, he conducted a detailed investigation into the status of the automobile industry across the country.
In 4.05, the year before last, the national automobile production was only vehicles.
It may seem like a lot, but for a country with a large industrial, agricultural and populous country, it is too little.
This also laid the foundation for his determination to build cars, because the market is huge and the gap is also huge, even a pig building a car at this time can fly!
He is a "latecomer" and is very clear about the future domestic automobile demand potential and manufacturing capacity.
In 22.2, we were able to achieve an annual production capacity of vehicles. How fast has the development been in the past decade!
According to data from 1, the output of all automobile factories in Shanghai has exceeded vehicles.
Among them, there are 760 Modou brand SH5300 sedans.
Do you know why only officials above the ministerial level can ride on Hongqi, while officials above the municipal level can ride on Modu SH760?
Because Hongqi’s current annual production capacity is 2000 units, isn’t that interesting?
The Jinling Automobile Manufacturing Plant produced 16302 vehicles.
The Jinan Automobile Manufacturing Plant produced 5039 vehicles that year, and until it stopped production, it had produced a total of 150 Yellow River brand JN8 33215-ton trucks, accounting for 72% of domestic heavy-duty trucks.
Now you know the strength of the five major factories, and this does not include the production capacity of Factory 17 and Beijing Automobile Factory.
The Beijing Automobile Factory only started producing the 212 in . It has a great influence, but its production capacity has not yet caught up, with an annual production capacity of about .
The first and fourth year novels have been completed, and there are still a "large number" of people present today.
Saying a lot is only relative, because in addition to the five major manufacturers, there are many other strong car companies.
For example, Shanghai Bicycle Factory No. 2, Second Automobile Works, Sichuan Automobile, etc.
You say this is nonsense, isn’t this about cars? What the hell is the Second Bicycle Factory?
Yes, Shanghai Bicycle Factory No. 2 originally manufactured bicycles, but they also had a heart for acceleration.
In 250, they developed the Xingfu 250 motorcycle based on the JAWA 12 motorcycle of Czechoslovakia at that time. The two-stroke engine could output horsepower.
You may not know the Shanghai Bicycle Factory No. 250, but you must be familiar with Xingfu now.
If you live in the village and are sleeping at night, you can hear a Xingfu 250 passing by on a long road and hear it clearly.
"From a distance it sounds like a tiger, but up close it looks like an idiot" was the catchy saying used to describe this motorcycle.
Li Xuewu once heard someone say that if the motorcycle runs out of gas, don't panic, because if you have urine in your stomach you can still ride another two miles.
Bicycle factories can realize their motorcycle dreams, so where do they get this technology and support?
The barbaric era ended, resources were integrated, and the Spring and Autumn Period was at its most glorious time.
In 1966, in order to support the Third Front, one large school and four small schools carried out construction aid in the mainland.
140 Group and Nanjing Automobile Group assisted in the construction of Second Automobile Works (Dongfeng) in Shiyan, which mainly produces the Dongfeng EQ140 heavy-duty truck based on the Jiefang CA240 and the EQ military off-road medium-duty truck.
Beijing Auto assisted in the construction of Shaanxi Automobile in Mailixigou, which mainly produces the Yan'an SX250 heavy-duty military off-road truck.
Jiqi helped build Sichuan Automobile Co., Ltd. in the mountain city of Dazu County, which mainly produces Hongyan brand mining loaders and unloaders and military off-road trucks.
Only the more important projects are selected for explanation here, and other supporting construction projects are not described one by one here.
But after the barbaric period ended, the Ministry of Industry did have policy-based construction for the automobile industry.
It can be seen from the fact that one large and four small players support the three lines that important adjustments have been made to the military market.
In other words, the market segmentation between military and civilian use had already been done in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Let’s look back at the watershed between the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period for the automobile industry.
That is, the emergence of the supply chain has further refined the civilian and military markets, and proposed more possibilities and feasibility for the automotive industry.
So the question is, is there any difference between growth in the barbaric period and the struggle for hegemony among heroes in the Warring States period?
Yes, there is a very obvious difference, and that is the use of weapons.
The weapons we are talking about here are actually the supply chain, as well as more advanced production technology and equipment.
In the barbaric period, development and projects were carried out blindly, and the problem was solved from nothing to something.
The Spring and Autumn Period was a process of resource integration and moving from having to excellence.
The Warring States Period was a process of what you don’t have and I have, what you have I have better than you, and if you are better than me I will outdo you.
From the changes in production technologies such as supply chains and assembly lines, it is not difficult to see that this is another process of industrial elimination.
In fact, the Spring and Autumn Period was very long. It started from 1960 and was only in its early stages until 1966, and ended in the 1980s.
That is to say, it was open and the outside wind blew in, forcing the Spring and Autumn Period to transform into the Warring States Period.
But if you really want to dominate at that time, can you compare the strength of your fists with guns and cannons?
Of course not. Li Xuewu developed the automobile industry at the Red Star Factory entirely by his own efforts, which cut short the Spring and Autumn Period of the automobile industry halfway, forcing the heroes to enter the era of competition for hegemony ahead of time.
There is still a large gap in the domestic automobile market and the market is still very broad.
Therefore, while providing excellent car manufacturing experience and setting standards, we will allow more industrial forces to break through and more car companies to emerge.
The Ministry of Industry was very clear about the purpose of the Red Star Factory, but they had a broader vision and were more supportive of the Red Star Factory's actions.
Although it is a car company that has only been established for more than a year, it has achieved something that even the five major manufacturers had not expected.
Wouldn't the higher-ups want to see a situation where every generation has talented people emerging and each of them is the leader for hundreds of years?
Of course not. A single flower blooming is not spring. Only a garden full of spring colors is spring.
Red Star Factory wants to help more small and medium-sized car companies achieve standardized car manufacturing not by turning over the table, but by building a stepping stone.
Therefore, after Director Du returned, he organized the leaders of the Ministry of Industry to study and hold a meeting, and issued this document overnight.
Who is this document for? It is for the business and industry leaders who are attending the Supply Chain Conference today.
As soon as the document came out, the five major manufacturers gave up their intention to set up a new supply chain platform.
They won't and can't do thankless tasks, which would only make things difficult for themselves.
The second day of the Red Star Factory Supply Chain Conference began in this overwhelming atmosphere with a positive, peaceful, healthy, and proactively cooperative atmosphere.
-
“We should be the first company to cooperate with Red Star Supply Chain.”
Gu Litong stood in front of his factory's booth, smilingly introducing the products to the leaders of the same industry who came to visit.
After he finished his introduction, he took the initiative to ask Li Xuewu who was passing by the exhibition area: "Is that right, Deputy Director Li?"
Actually it was a joke. After listening to Li Xuewu's speech and introduction yesterday, Gu Litong was very envious of this young man's relaxation and strength.
So today, when he was receiving leaders from the same field, his explanation style also learned from Li Xuewu.
At this moment, Li Gui saw Li Kui and asked a question jokingly to ease his embarrassment.
"You are not being precise—"
Li Xuewu knew what he meant, and walked inside with Sha Qizhi without stopping. He pointed at him intentionally and corrected him with a smile: "It should be said that it is the first automobile manufacturing plant."
"Hahaha--"
"Yes Yes Yes--"
Seeing his fellow leaders laughing, Gu Litong also laughed and nodded in agreement: "Beijing Second Automobile is the first automobile manufacturer to cooperate with Red Star Supply Chain!"
"Hahaha--"
He cooperated by correcting and emphasizing, which made everyone on the scene laugh even more.
Everyone's eyes also turned to Li Xuewu, this extraordinary young man.
A short-sleeved white shirt, a black belt, black trousers, and black leather shoes with holes, he looks capable and elegant.
The cadres of the Red Star Factory are easy to recognize, as they all wear white and black uniforms. If there are others wearing white and black uniforms, just look at the badges and nameplates on their chests, and you will never make a mistake in recognizing them.
When Li Xuewu walked past the Beijing Second Automobile Works booth, he did not forget to point at Gu Litong and said sarcastically, "If you say something wrong, your bonus will be deducted!"
"There's no prize money, haha——"
When Gulitong heard everyone laughing, he started laughing too.
He gestured to Li Xuewu who was leaving, and said to everyone sincerely: "See, he is young and promising, you can't help but accept it——"
He then pointed to the BJ130 light truck parked in the exhibition area and explained: "This truck was designed in , and the production plant and calculation formula were also designed at the same time."
"It coincided with the big learning activity, and our factory adjusted its work focus, so the work of factory construction and production was postponed."
Gulitong is very good at talking. He didn’t mention the delay at all, and just covered it up with two sentences.
"It's a coincidence that the first company that Red Star Factory contacted for supply chain was actually Beijing Automobile Factory, but they failed to reach an agreement!"
He is really a cunning guy. He even DISS Beijing Automobile Factory while talking about himself.
Just like when three best friends get together, they have to find a little bitch to scold in order to unite as one.
Gulitong is just standing here bragging like a glutton who has taken advantage of the situation.
Beijing's industry has limited resources. Beijing Automobile Factory is the eldest son, and their second son can't get anything good.
So he got a bargain, but he didn't treat the people from the Beijing Automobile Factory as human beings. That's what I say.
"By chance, the Beijing Industrial Organization organized us to take over and merge a number of motorcycle and truck industries, so we became friends."
Gu Litong introduced: "Through research, we learned about the advanced nature of the new automobile manufacturing plant built by Red Star in Gangcheng, so we overcame all objections, modified the original plant construction plan, and launched the supply chain."
"Deputy Director Gu, I have a question——"
The director of Longjiang Automobile Manufacturing Plant interrupted and asked, "Beijing Second Automobile also has its own parts industry. Wouldn't it be counterproductive to introduce a supply chain now?"
"That's a good question—"
Gu Litong smiled and nodded, saying, "When we were in the meeting, a comrade raised this point of view."
“However, I would like to say that the parts industry owned by Beijing Second Automobile is incomplete and insufficient to support the production of complete vehicles.”
He looked at the other party and said, "We have estimated that the cost of producing all parts in-house according to the original production plan is fourteen times the cost of canceling the original plan and introducing supply chain production."
"so much?"
Not only the representatives from Longjiang were surprised, but the others who were standing here listening to Gu Litong's introduction were also in disbelief.
"That's a lot, and that's a conservative estimate."
Gu Litong explained very seriously: "Compare the No. 17 Factory and the Magic City Factory and you will understand. Ask them how much it costs to produce a car, and then look at the selling price of a car at the Red Star Factory."
"I know. The 212 costs yuan, and the lowest price of the Antelope is yuan, which is five times as much!"
He gestured with his palms and emphasized: "We have to take into account that 212 is a low-profit sales, while Antelope is a high-profit sales."
"It is undeniable that our joint venture purchased Antelope cars from the Red Star Factory, and the lowest price was more than 5,000."
"Om-"
There were exclamations and discussions at the scene. The price was over 5,000, so how could the cost be any lower?
No wonder Vice President Wang of Beijing Automobile Factory hasn't smiled these past two days. Even if they encountered this kind of thing, they would cry to death.
Thirty-six thousand versus seven thousand one, KO!
"Production equipment, including assembly lines and worker training..."
Someone else asked: "Is the investment in this part large?"
"Big, very big, definitely big."
Gu Litong said this line in an exaggerated manner, just like the people in the Viagra commercials of later generations.
He explained seriously: "This is an industrial technology exhibition, not a discussion meeting to support the Third Front."
"The assembly line equipment and technology are all advanced ones imported from abroad by the Red Star Factory. What we use in our factory is actually a copy of the one made by the Beijing Second Machinery Factory."
Gu Litong pointed to the exhibition area of the Beijing Second Machinery Factory and said, "You can go and look around later. You will definitely gain something."
"Let's talk about whether this investment is worth it. It is worth it."
He said: "There is a huge gap between assembly lines and ordinary production lines, especially when it comes to matching supply chains."
"The motorcycle manufacturing plant of the Red Star Factory uses this kind of assembly line equipment, and the daily production capacity has exceeded 300 units."
"What about you? Beijing Second Automobile Works."
The man smiled and asked, "What do you think the production capacity will be after installing this set of production equipment?"
"At least this number!"
Gu Liyi stretched out his hand and said confidently: "The annual production capacity is at least 50,000 units, no more and no less."
"And we need to use the latest technology and the latest materials," he counted on his fingers, "including plastics, fiberglass, special steel, etc."
"You must go to the Red Star Factory's new material booth to have a look. It will definitely surprise you."
-
There was no host or leader to visit the exhibition on the second day, it was all voluntary.
There are tour guides from various factories in the exhibition area, and detailed introductory materials are available for collection, which is very thoughtful.
If you are tired of shopping, you can take a break in the rest area, have a cup of tea, and pick out a few small items to buy back for your family and friends.
They are all specialty products produced by the Red Star Factory and its affiliated units, and among them, the products from the First Prison are the most fashionable and attractive.
The automobile manufacturers that have cooperated with the Red Star Factory have spoken out with their own experiences, and the parts suppliers that have cooperated with the Red Star Factory have spoken with facts.
There are many shelves in the exhibition area, on which are placed the flagship products of each factory, namely auto parts.
Among them, the tertiary industry jointly operated by Red Star Factory and other factories has the largest exhibition area, the most varieties, and the widest application of new materials.
This is also where the most people come, looking for the puzzle piece of their dreams on the display cabinets based on what they imagine a car should look like.
In fact, there was no need to ask or conduct any investigation, Li Xuewu knew that this supply chain conference was a success.
Of course, it is too early to say this. Specific negotiations can begin in the afternoon.
If you want to negotiate, the Red Star Factory Tianjin Trade Management Center will receive and discuss it tomorrow morning.
Those who are interested will sign a letter of intent for cooperation in the afternoon and advance subsequent cooperation in accordance with the procedures of the cooperation opinion letter.
At the same time, Hongxing Factory will also bid and purchase chassis and other technologies from major automobile companies tomorrow morning. This can be regarded as a progressive sequence.
However, tonight, Red Star Factory will organize an industry standards symposium.
The main content is to discuss and study what standards should be used to regulate and formulate industry production standards.
The Red Star Factory is very good at dealing with people and doing things. Even if you want to be the leader, you have to ask these brothers if they have any opinions.
Of course, Red Star Factory is not arrogant enough to set industry standards that are better than its own.
Especially in the process of discussing and formulating industry standards, Red Star Factory was not even the main responsible unit.
If Red Star Factory is not the one taking the lead, then who is?
Li Huaide has reported this to Director Du, who in turn invited Comrade Hu Jiaquan, an engineer from the Automotive Research Institute who studied in the United States, to take the lead in formulating this standardization. The Automotive Research Institute will host the event, the Red Star Factory Vehicle Engineering Institute will co-organize it, and the Huaqing University Vehicle Engineering Department, the Iron and Steel Institute and many other industrial universities Vehicle Engineering Departments will provide support.
This standard must be fair and just, and recognized by the national automobile industry system.
Hongxing Factory has already established its advantages in the supply chain and has mastered the core technologies of production line technology and equipment, so there is no need to tamper with this.
It is also a fair and just standard, which will help Red Star Factory to dominate the subsequent automobile industry system.
Anyone can attend this symposium. As long as you are a member invited to attend the supply chain conference, you can enter and listen with your work ID.
If you have any opinions or suggestions, you can also write a note to express your views, and then the host will approve your speech for discussion.
The symposium was still a discussion between the five major factories, Red Star Factory and major parts manufacturers.
“What is the feedback on the impact of the export exhibition?”
Li Xuewu walked to the innermost exhibition area, where there were also many people, especially companies interested in exports.
He looked at Zhuang Cangshu who came over and reminded him, "The supply chain has been explained very clearly. The seeds have been planted, and you need to display the fruits well."
“Yes, the feedback from the export exhibition area is very good.”
Zhuang Cangshu reported very seriously: "We have introduced the Gemini car, Comet motorcycle, and Gazelle car in detail, and everyone is very interested."
He gestured to the people who were consulting in the exhibition area and explained, "They are mainly asking about international channels, and some are asking about domestic sales channels. Our introduction on this aspect is very vague."
"Well, when a cat teaches a tiger, it still has to hold back a little bit—"
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said to him, "But don't feel pressured, tomorrow will be your main battlefield."
“Haha——” Zhuang Cangshu smiled bitterly: “If you hadn’t said it, I wouldn’t have felt the pressure. Now that you’ve said it, it’s reminded me.”
"Hahaha--"
Seeing that he was still in the mood to joke, Li Xuewu knew that he was ready and had made his choice.
He who knows the current affairs is a hero!
"Pay special attention to Sichuan Automobile. They asked me a lot of questions yesterday. It's probably not about the trucks."
He grabbed Zhuang Cangshu's arm and whispered, "They probably want to build a jeep, too."
"This..." Zhuang Cangshu opened his eyes, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Is this possible?"
"Why can't it work?"
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and asked, "You are allowed to create antelopes, but others are not allowed to create gazelles or goats?"
"Don't worry, talk to them boldly. Even if they want to buy our antelope production technology, we can sell it to them!"
He rolled his eyes and reminded me, "It will be replaced next year. If you sell it at one price this year, it will be worth less next year!"
“Besides, once the supply chain is opened, making cars is no longer a myth,” he said, “After all, selling a car doesn’t mean it will be delivered immediately, right?”
"You are really...smart!"
Zhuang Cangshuo stuttered and almost told the truth.
