Set sail1992

Chapter 711 Still have to be self-reliant

After finishing speaking, Yang Zhijun paused, frowned and asked, "Mr. Zhang, if the conditions of Fuji Mold Manufacturing and those mold manufacturing companies on the island are similar to those of Di Yuan and Takeda, what should we do?"

This is indeed a problem, Zhang Qihang frowned: Now, he somewhat understands why those domestic automobile manufacturing companies have to set up their own mold manufacturing subsidiaries and find ways to acquire foreign advanced mold manufacturing institutions—it’s not that they don’t Knowing the importance of the so-called international division of labor, these foreign companies are really bullying people.

Foreign companies "treat domestic companies differently" in terms of molds. As a result, even state-owned enterprises like FAW, which are accustomed to being fed by others, have established their own mold manufacturing organizations: FAW Automobile Mold Manufacturing Center... Forgot, At this time, FAW has not yet been formally established. Strictly speaking, it is still a "FAW Precision Mold Manufacturing Workshop"... Lao Wang even directly acquired Tatebayashi, one of the four major factories of Ogiwara Mold Manufacturing, the largest and most advanced in Dongying. Mold factory.

"You reminded me, and this matter also reminded us," Zhang Qihang said slowly: "Batumi is still there, since foreigners regard us as fat sheep, then we have to find a way Forming its own design and production capacity of high-precision body-in-white automobile molds, so as not to be controlled by others."

Yang Zhijun was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked cautiously: "You mean, we want to make car molds ourselves?"

"What? You don't think it's appropriate?"

"That's not true," Yang Zhijun waved his hands hastily, "I just feel... think... um, how should I put it, I think it's a bit wasteful."

"A bit of a waste?"

"That's right," Yang Zhijun hurriedly explained, "Mr. Zhang, look, it's like Xiali and Santana. They look like they haven't been replaced for more than ten years, which means that a set of molds can be used for more than ten years. Let's not talk about how much investment is required to set up such a high-precision body-in-white mold manufacturing subsidiary, but just say that after the establishment of this subsidiary unit, you can't just rely on the daily replacement of these molds to live?"

The stamping die of the body-in-white has a service life. A model may have a long production cycle, such as Xiali, Jetta and Santana. The basic structure of the body has remained unchanged for more than ten years, that is, some changes are made on the outer covering parts. , but the inner frame structure will not change, so there are advantages and disadvantages, and the biggest disadvantage is that a set of molds can be used for a long time, and can be used until the "end of life" of this set of molds, which is important for automobile manufacturers. Of course it is a good thing, but it is not a good thing for the mold manufacturing unit: there is not much business on weekdays.

For ordinary front-line workers and even the person in charge of the mold production unit, they may wish to be like this: How comfortable are these small days and still get paid if they don’t work much?But for the superior company and the managers of the superior company, this situation is absolutely intolerable.

Understanding what Yang Zhijun meant, Zhang Qihang laughed immediately: "How is it possible? You don't know that with the continuous reform and opening up of our country, there is a great demand for high-precision stamping dies in society, except for our own In addition to demand, this mold production and production unit can also provide molds to other enterprises in the society...Lao Yang, I am not talking about you, why do you have such an idea?"

Yang Zhijun immediately realized: Huh?Yup!With such a precision mold manufacturing company, not only can we meet our own needs for molds, but we can also go outside to take orders. As Mr. Zhang said, the domestic market demand for precision molds is so great!

Realizing this, Yang Zhijun nodded immediately: "It's because I didn't think carefully... But Mr. Zhang, I think the problem now is that the far water can't quench the near thirst."

Hearing this, Zhang Qihang couldn't help but frowned.

He understood what Yang Zhijun meant. Huateng Industrial Group wanted to develop its own precision moulds. The mass production of the group's first sedan is imminent. How to solve this problem?

The most terrible thing is that Zhang Qihang and Huateng Industrial Group are not very familiar with the domestic mold industry in this era.

After pondering for a while, Zhang Qihang ordered: "Well, Lao Yang, you go to contact the National Die & Mold Industry Association, and first go through them to see if there is any mold manufacturing company in China that can meet our requirements. If not, then ask them to recommend it. Some foreign mold manufacturing enterprises that can meet our precision requirements and processing requirements."

"That's the only way to do it," Yang Zhijun nodded, and asked with concern, "What about you, Mr. Zhang?"

"Me? I'm going to take a trip to Chengfei Group in Rongcheng."

"Rongcheng Chengfei Group?" Yang Zhijun was stunned: "What are you going to Chengfei for?"

"Old Yang, there is an automobile mold center under Chengfei Group. I am going to check their technical level and see if they can meet our requirements." Speaking of this, Zhang Qihang couldn't help talking: "If Chengfei No mold center can meet our requirements for precision, and I am afraid that there is no domestic enterprise that can meet our requirements for mold precision.”

"There is an automobile mold center under Chengfei Group?" Yang Zhijun was very surprised: "Is it true or not? Don't they make airplanes?"

Zhang Qihang laughed immediately: "The manufacture of airplanes also requires various molds, measuring tools, fixtures and testing equipment, right? If Chengfei Group can manufacture various precision molds for airplanes, the body-in-white stamping dies for automobiles will naturally not be there. Let's talk?
As for the automobile mold center established by Chengfei Group, it is actually a tertiary production unit established by Chengfei. , It can also hand over some profits to the head office. "

"So that's what happened..."

Yang Zhijun nodded, expressing his understanding.

Mr. Zhang's words are indeed reasonable. The precision requirements of aircraft must be much higher than that of civilian vehicles. If Chengfei Group has mastered the manufacturing technology of aviation-grade high-precision stamping dies and even corresponding fixtures, measuring tools and even testing equipment , then they can naturally transfer this technology to the car mold, but he is a little unclear, is Cheng Fei willing to take this job?After all, they build airplanes.

Hearing Lao Yang talk about his worries, Zhang Qihang explained: "Chengfei's history of making automobile molds is earlier than you think. As early as 1986, Chengfei's leaders valued the automobile mold market. In 1992, the automobile mold center under Chengfei Group was formally established.

Now I am only worried about whether their technical level can meet our requirements, not whether they can make body-in-white moulds. "

"Understood," Yang Zhijun suddenly said: "But Mr. Zhang, it will be the Chinese New Year soon. We have a lot of things here. Chengfei is a central enterprise. Their situation should be busier than ours. Why don't we first Get in touch with them, and if their level can really meet our requirements, then invite them over? After all, we are the customers and the ones paying the bills, so it doesn’t make sense for us to do it, right?”

"Ok?"

Zhang Qihang was taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Old Yang, what you said makes sense."

....................................

Rongcheng, the automobile mold center of Chengfei Group.

The general manager Wang Dong was looking at Huang Bo, the office director, with a worried expression on his face: "Old Huang, do you think about it again? It will be the Chinese New Year soon..."

"Mr. Wang, I really can't help it. The threshold of the head office is almost leveled by me, but there is no way. If you have no money, you have no money." Huang Bo's face was more bitter than that of Wang Dong: "It's not that you don't know the current situation of the head office. When I went there in the morning, Vice President Cheng told me, do you want money? You want a washing machine and there are three warehouses. You, Huang Bo, want to send money to everyone? Yes, take the washing machine Take it away, sell the washing machine to pay everyone's wages, or you can sell the mold steel in your inventory for money..."

Hearing what Huang Bo said, Wang Dong stopped talking and lowered his head to smoke vigorously.

Cheng Fei is having a hard time now, the workers at the head office can barely pay 80% of their wages, such as the automobile mold center, washing machine company, electric welding machine company and other tertiary production units under the head office. There are varying degrees of arrears to the company. For example, in the automobile mold center in charge of Wang Dong, the workers have not received their wages for three months, and the washing machine company under the head office is now selling washing machines for all employees of the engine...

It’s fine if it’s other times, but now it’s almost the New Year’s Eve, not to mention giving everyone something for the New Year, at least half a month’s salary for everyone, so that everyone can finish this year, but it’s just For such a small amount of money, neither the mold center nor the head office can afford it...

There is no way to pass the day!

"Jingle Bell……"

When Huang Bo and Wang Dong were relatively silent, the phone rang suddenly.

The caller at this time must be charged...

Wang Dong rubbed the center of his brows with a headache, he didn't want to answer, but in front of his subordinates, he couldn't help but hesitated, and finally picked up the phone: "Hello..."

Wang Dong had just started when he heard the guy on the phone say: "Hello, we are Huateng Industrial Group of Shandong Province, and I am Yang Zhijun, the administrative manager of Huateng Industrial Group. Are you a subsidiary of Chengfei Group?" Mold center?"

Ok?
Hearing the other party's self-introduction, Wang Dong was taken aback: Didn't you ask for a bill?In addition, why does the opponent's unit sound familiar?

It sounded familiar, but Wang Dong couldn't remember it for a while.

It doesn't matter if you can't remember it, as long as you don't need to pay, then everything is easy to talk about!
Wang Dong immediately said: "That's right, this is Chengfei Group Automobile Mold Center, what's the matter?"

"Can you make high-precision body-in-white stamping dies?"

"..."

Hearing the voice from the receiver, Wang Dong was stunned: Is the other party here to contact business?
Not only Wang Dong was stunned, but Huang Bo was also stunned: Someone came to contact the mold center for business? !

Goodness see you~!

At the beginning, the head office of the group was ambitious and wanted to make some achievements in the field of automobile stamping dies. It felt that so many automobile manufacturers in China could not support an automobile mold manufacturer?Such a technical thing will definitely make Cheng Fei's life very nourishing. Maybe the automobile mold center alone can give the entire group company a lot of bonuses.

The idea is very good, but it is difficult to know how difficult this industry is after diving into it: FAW, Second Automobile, SAIC, Shouqi, Jinqi and other domestic automobile manufacturers all have their own automobile mold manufacturing units. Although the production capacity of precision molds is one of the best in China, it just cannot be sold.

In order to sell his own car moulds, Wang Dong had to pay a lot of favors to be able to sell some molds in those small car factories. He had never met such a company that came to him on his own initiative...

It's not easy!

It's not easy!
At this time, Huang Bo's mind suddenly flashed: Huateng Industrial Group in Lu Province?Damn, aren't the two Huateng-Mitsubishi "land business class" commercial vehicles purchased by the group headquarters for high-end reception work produced by this Huateng Industrial Group?
At this moment, he was ecstatic in his heart, quickly tugged on Wang Dong's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "President Wang, this is Huateng Industrial Group, the 'business class on land' at our group headquarters..."

Hearing Huang Bo mention "business class on land", Wang Dong also instantly realized who the Huateng Industrial Group is, and his face immediately burst into laughter, and he responded repeatedly: "So it's Manager Yang, Hello, hello, I am Wang Dong, the manager of Chengfei Automobile Mold Center, what can I do for you, Manager Yang?"

At this moment, Wang Dong's heart was already in his throat, and he desperately prayed to Mantian God and Buddha: he must be here to place an order, must be here to place an order...

Yang Zhijun didn't know how nervous Wang Dong was on the other end of the phone. He knew that he had contacted the other party, and he immediately said, "Hello, Manager Wang, it's like this. I want to know if our mold center can make Stamping dies for car body-in-white and exterior panels? Well, in terms of precision, our requirements should not be lower than the level of Santana 2000. If it can be higher, it would be the best."

Actually came to contact business...

At this moment, Wang Dong's heart was filled with great happiness, and it was too late to consider whether the body-in-white of the Santana 2000 car mentioned by Yang Zhijun was accurate. He only had one thought in his mind: Take it down!This list must be taken down!

After getting this list, although there is still no way for everyone to have a good year, at least, I can give everyone an account of the past.
