Chapter 2273 Heavy Truck Base
"Since our city of Sy is facing such great employment pressure, I am also willing to increase investment in our city of Sy, and the main investment project is to build a heavy truck production base in our city of Sy, so I hope that you, across from the city of Sy, will You can apply for a heavy-duty truck sales license from the state, and you need to expand the factory and related production lines in large quantities, all of which require the necessary resources from your SY city government."

For the request from the SY city government, the only way Duan Yun can think of at present is to invest in new industrial projects, and the heavy truck project is a large-scale project that Duan Yun has planned for a long time ago.

Moreover, the heavy-duty truck project is undoubtedly a very good project to solve 10 jobs, because it involves very complicated related industries and can provide a lot of jobs, and based on the current automobile industry foundation of SY City In the future, building a large-scale heavy-duty truck production base will have many technical and industrial chain advantages, and it is precisely because of this that Duan Yun proposed his own heavy-duty truck plan.

In fact, Duan Yun has been investing in the automobile industry in Shenyang for six or seven years. In the early stage, he introduced the relevant technologies and production lines of cars and trucks at the same time as Volvo headquarters. After more than two years of equipment installation and commissioning, Volvo cars have already It took root in Shenyang, and with the joint efforts of Tianyin Group and the SY Municipal Government, it has achieved very good sales and occupied a place in the Chinese high-end car market.

While introducing the Volvo car technology and production line, Tianyin Group also introduced the F10 truck production line. According to Duan Yun's original plan, he wanted the F10 truck to become the best-selling high-end heavy truck in mainland China just like the imported Volvo car.

However, the development of the Volvo f10 truck project has been lacklustre these years. The reasons are very complicated, and there are two most important points. The first is that in the current country, heavy trucks are a strategic material, and the state has always been very strict about its production license. According to the requirements, the corresponding national production license must be obtained before mass production.

When the F10 truck production line was first introduced, the country's restrictions on heavy trucks were not so strict, but after two years,

At that time, China's heavy-duty vehicles were mainly concentrated in the four main companies under China National Heavy Duty Truck Group Corporation, namely Jinan Heavy Duty Truck, Shaanxi Automobile Factory, Sichuan Automobile Factory and Hebei Changzheng Automobile Factory.

The products of the four companies occupied most of the domestic heavy truck market at that time. In fact, the models produced included SAIC-IVECO Hongyan, Long March Taituo, Steyr heavy trucks, and Huanghe heavy trucks, etc.

Judging from the foreign technologies introduced by these four companies, they are basically at the same level as Volvo F10 trucks, and the reason why Volvo F10 trucks are not sold well in China also has its own reasons.

First of all, the production cost of Volvo F10 trucks is very high. As a company that also produces luxury cars, the driver's seat of Volvo F10 trucks is airbag shock absorption, which can give the driver a very comfortable riding experience. The car itself is also equipped with pneumatic Differential locks, and there are still two locks. There was such a configuration in the 80s, which is beyond the reach of domestic trucks.

In addition, at that time, the Volvo f10 truck was an 8-speed manual gearbox, and it was equipped with an air-conditioning facility that was rare in domestic trucks. The headlights of Bosch in Germany, and the door interior was made of checkered brown lining, which looked so Some luxury.

Fine workmanship and some parts imported from abroad, it is doomed that the gate of Volvo f10 trucks will definitely be higher than that of domestic trucks. In fact, the f10 trucks produced by Tianyin Group in the early years are made of very solid materials, and the cost and price It is also about 30% higher than ordinary domestic trucks. It is precisely because of the higher price that F10 trucks are not very popular with some self-employed.

In fact, other domestic trucks are far inferior to Volvo F10 trucks in terms of safety and comfort. In addition, Volvo has many functions and operability, but these are not the most important things for transportation companies and fleet owners. What they need is cheap, Durable trucks with high load capacity, so some functions of Volvo have become tasteless in their eyes.

Therefore, the main reason for the unsalable f10 trucks is that Duan Yun did not pay enough attention to this truck at that time, the product positioning was wrong, and the product was not adjusted according to the current national conditions.

But this time, Duan Yun suddenly proposed to build a larger heavy truck production base and increase investment significantly. The promotion of infrastructure construction and the popularity of real estate, coupled with the construction of various expressway networks, have led to a rapid increase. It can be said that China's heavy truck industry has ushered in an unprecedented golden age at this stage.

Therefore, if it is possible to establish a nationally ranked heavy truck production base in Shenyang two or three years in advance, and at the same time use the technology accumulated by Tianyin Group and Jinbei Automobile in heavy trucks, on the basis of Volvo F10 trucks, If the model is improved and upgraded as a whole, it will be able to catch up with this wave of golden development period of China's heavy trucks, so as to gain a firm foothold in the field of heavy trucks.

However, there are still many problems that need to be solved. On the one hand, it is a policy issue. The state has very strict approval for the production and sales of heavy trucks. As a strategic material, most of the time manufacturers can only target production and sales, and only the state can sell them nationwide. The sales of several enterprises of Sinotruk Group and other manufacturers can only be limited to a certain area. The heavy trucks produced by Jinbei Automobile Factory are also affected by this limitation.

Therefore, if you want to expand sales, you need the joint efforts of the SY city and even the LN provincial government, and strive to let Jinbei Automobile Factory also join the matrix of Sinotruk Group. Only in this way can the heavy trucks of Tianyin Group enter some special channels for sales .

Another point is that if you want to expand the production of heavy trucks in the Shenyang Automobile Production Base and provide more jobs at the same time, it means that you must have more land and supporting facilities such as water and electricity. These also need to be carried out by the SY City Government. Re-planning to match Tianyin Group's investment.

The scale of Duan Yun’s investment this time will be very large. He intends to invest 30 billion RMB within two years to complete his last piece of the puzzle in the domestic auto industry. industry profits.
