Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 1325 Do foreign parts factories value us?

Wu Ping returned the satellite phone to Niu Xiaoqiang, sat down and observed the list carefully, and asked while reading: "Xiaoqiang, these parts factories are companies that have maintained long-term cooperative relations with Nanfeng Automobile Factory and Yuejin Automobile Factory. In the end, they rely on these two major automobile factories for their livelihood, if the two major automobile manufacturers make trouble and don't allow them to come to the investment promotion conference held in the district, how should we deal with it?"

The two major automobile factories have suppressed the Asian machinery factory more than once. Wu Ping is very familiar with the ins and outs of the incident. She knows the virtues of some large enterprises. She is worried that similar things will happen again, so she has such a situation. ask.

Niu Xiaoqiang had considered this question a long time ago, and he replied calmly: "According to my estimation, there must be resistance, especially the Yuejin Automobile Factory. Our relationship with them can be described as very bad. It’s easy to say, after all, they also cooperate with Packard Motors. Since they are all partners of Packard Motors, it is estimated that they will not do things too extreme. That is to say, most of the resistance we really need to face will come from Leap into the car factory."

Wu Ping asked: "If the Yuejin Automobile Factory does something bad, what can we do?"

Niu Xiaoqiang answered very easily: "If they play tricks, we will abandon the suppliers under their name and look for other partners instead."

Wu Ping hesitated: "Who can we cooperate with?"

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled slightly: "We can find foreign parts factories to cooperate with."

Wu Ping was taken aback: "Can foreign parts factories cooperate with us? Or... do they think highly of us?"

Niu Xiaoqiang stretched out his finger and poked Wu Ping on the forehead: "Sister Ping, why are you so unconfident? As long as there is money to be made, foreign parts factories will definitely accept the invitation, besides, Packard Motor Company After all, they are from the United States and have very pure American blood, so even if they look down on Asian Machinery Factory, can they still look down on Packard Motor Company?"

Wu Ping sighed: "I hope so. Speaking of which, my sister's concept is indeed a bit backward. I hope that the new area is different from other places in China. We are mainly private enterprises here, and the flexibility of enterprises is far from that of Nanfeng Automobile Factory and Nanfeng Automobile Factory. Yuejin Automobile Factory is comparable, and the policies in the district are also very favorable, without so many restrictions. As long as we send out invitations, I believe those foreign parts factories are still willing to come and have a look. As long as they come, most of them will I was attracted by the good atmosphere here, and then joined Fang’s huge supplier system.”

Wu Ping changed the subject here: "The only worrying thing is that our place is too remote. If some enterprises preconceived that this place is not suitable for investment, it would be difficult to handle."

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled slightly when he heard the words: "Sister Ping, I have already decided to participate in this investment promotion conference. We can send invitation letters to foreign auto parts factories at the same time, inviting them to participate in the investment promotion conference. For those foreign businessmen who are negotiating, with my solid looks, I am still sure to persuade some manufacturers to come to Aoshan to build factories."

Only then did Wu Ping feel relieved: "I'm relieved when you say that. After all, you are a person who has seen the world and an international student at MIT. It is impossible for those foreigners to disrespect you. If you were replaced by someone else When negotiating with foreign businessmen, it is estimated that they may not be able to look up to them."

What Wu Ping said was not a lie. Nowadays, when facing foreigners, Chinese people always feel inferior from the bottom of their hearts. At the same time, most foreigners feel inferior when facing Chinese people. Higher than the other one.

Going and coming in this way is equivalent to the fact that Chinese people are inferior to others.Under such circumstances, when negotiating business with foreigners, Chinese people will always suffer.

The reason is mainly caused by the economic gap between the two sides.In the case of a lot of economically backward people, the Chinese people's backs are not straight, and they don't have much confidence in their speech. As a result, they will naturally be at a disadvantage when negotiating business.

Niu Xiaoqiang is different. He has seen many worlds and knows how to deal with foreigners. Therefore, it is the most appropriate choice for him to act as a negotiator.

Niu Xiaoqiang originally wanted to wait until he had completely completed the research and development of the automated car production line before starting to prepare for the establishment of Fang's car supplier system.However, considering that this matter would take a lot of energy and time, he finally changed his mind and wanted to start the relevant plans in advance, so as not to delay the time for production.

No matter how powerful an auto company is, it is impossible to complete all the production of spare parts by itself.The reason is that there are more than 2 spare parts for a car, which means that if you want to manufacture a car, you must have a strong industrial manufacturing capacity to produce more than 2 parts.

It is impossible for an auto company to achieve such a terrifying industrial manufacturing capability. Therefore, all auto companies adopt the production process of core components and hand over less core components to downstream parts suppliers for production. .

The core components of a car can be roughly divided into three parts: engine, gearbox, and chassis (suspension).

These three parts are actually three relatively large systems. For example, the engine is assembled from many different small parts. From the initial research and development to the final assembly, it takes a lot of manpower, material resources and Financial resources, but also have a very strong industrial manufacturing capacity.

From the perspective of industrial manufacturing, an engine is a huge mechanical system. To manufacture an engine, you need to have a corresponding industrial manufacturing and R&D system, otherwise everything is out of the question.

At present, Fang's Automobile Factory has the ability to manufacture engines. For this reason, Niu Xiaoqiang planned two years in advance, and only then has a large number of skilled technicians been trained.

If he hadn't planned ahead of time, the Fang's Automobile Factory would have to purchase even automobile engines from outside.

The flexibility of private enterprises is shown here. If they are determined to do something, they don’t need to go through mountains and rivers like state-owned enterprises. As long as the boss makes the decision, they can work hard in one direction to achieve their goals.

If it is a state-owned enterprise, such as Nanfeng Automobile Factory or Yuejin Automobile Factory, they need to go through repeated meetings and discussions to make any major decision. Things that can be clarified in a week sometimes take a year or more. There isn't a clear conclusion.

To put it bluntly, without the strong support of the state, these enterprises would have died long ago, and it is impossible to compete with private enterprises.
