Through the wealth life

Chapter 657 Hengtong Bus

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Guangyu met Zhang Ziyu who had just returned to Xiangjiang from Shuangqing in his office.

After a few days of investigation and negotiation, Zhang Ziyu has reached a preliminary cooperation intention with Chang'an Manufacturing Company, and is now reporting to the central government on the cooperation issue of Chang'an Manufacturing Company.

If it is fast, it can be approved within a month, and the Bentley Group and Chang'an Manufacturing Company can start to discuss the subsequent matters in detail.

As for Guo Fengtao, he is still in Rongcheng, negotiating on the highway from Rongcheng to Shuangqing via Guocheng.

This expressway will pass through several areas, and the direction of the route and various plans require a lot of argumentation. Guo Fengtao will not be able to return to Xiangjiang for a while.

Zhang Ziyu said: "Sheng Li, the demand for buses in the western region is far less than that in the eastern region, especially the southern and eastern regions. It is beneficial to our occupation in the mainland market."

Naturally, Li Guangyu is also aware of some disadvantages there, but this aspect is not impossible to solve. Which of the domestic auto groups in the future has several production bases, as long as Changan Hengtong Bus becomes famous, they can establish A new production base to serve the market here.

Li Guangyu told Zhang Ziyu his thoughts so that she wouldn't have to worry about it.

Seeing that Li Guangyu already had a complete plan, Zhang Ziyu felt relieved.

The auto market in mainland China has not yet opened up. At present, the FAW Kirin sedan, a joint venture between Bentley Group and Continental, has no purchasers at all except for government procurement.

At present, there is only a little sales in Guangdong Province, and the purchases in these places are not people from the mainland, but mainly businessmen from Xiangjiang and companies in the mainland.

Now the mainland is mainly invested by Hong Kong businessmen, and the Japanese business community is also investing in the mainland.

The roads in these two areas learn from England and drive on the left, while on the mainland, like the United States and Taiwan, they drive on the right. Therefore, after the vehicles on the Xiangjiang side pass by, some drivers are not used to it.

FAW Kirin's car rudder is opposite to that of Xiangjiang. In addition, Xiangjiang's vehicles used to have to go through a lot of procedures. For convenience, these companies and executives in mainland China are also willing to buy FAW Kirin cars.

Zhang Ziyu estimates that it will take three to five years for the auto market in the mainland to really take off. As for the peak period of development, it will take more than ten or twenty years.

Li Guangyu said: "It's good for you to continue to follow up on the mainland. There is no problem with the sales of passenger cars there. You must know that each province and region has its own transportation team and company. As long as they have a few provinces willing to purchase Our passenger cars, our sales will be very scary."

Zhang Ziyu has also deliberately learned about the long-distance transportation company in Shuangqing and their urban bus company in the past few days. Whether it is a long-distance bus or a bus for urban bus transportation, they are still relatively backward at present. She believes that After the Changan·Hengtong bus comes out, it will definitely be welcomed by the local people.

Moreover, these companies are all owned by the government. Bentley Group and Chang'an Manufacturing Co., Ltd. jointly established a production base in their local area. They will naturally support the development of the company, and they will also give priority to Chang'an Hengtong Bus for procurement in this regard.

Zhang Ziyu said: "Li Sheng, I will continue to pay attention to the progress of Chang'an Manufacturing Company. I believe that this time we can reach a cooperation soon. Now Chang'an Manufacturing Company is looking forward to transformation and developing towards the automobile industry. They have also developed a The van, it's just a little bit off."

Li Guangyu knows that Changan Group will be very powerful in the future, and the future generations will cooperate with the American Ford company quite well, and Changan Ford is still very famous.

My own car brand has already cooperated with FAW, and I have no plans to cooperate with Continental on cars for the time being, and I can only choose a joint venture in passenger cars.

Li Guangyu temporarily put aside the affairs in mainland China, and said to Zhang Ziyu: "You should take a good rest these two days, and in a few days you will go to Baodao and Malaysia to communicate about the problems of our bus production base. That is Formosa Island, Xiangjiang Philippines and Thailand, while the Malaysian base serves Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and Indonesia."

At present, Li Guangyu wants to strengthen his occupation of the Southeast Asian market. If he does not make arrangements sooner, after the battle between the Japanese consortium and the American consortium is over, he will face greater pressure.

Li Guangyu's Bentley Group's market share in North America is constantly declining. This is due to the weakness of the market, and the second is that the three major Japanese automobile companies compete fiercely with the three major American automobile companies in the U.S. market, and the price war is quite fierce.

Li Guangyu didn't want to get involved. He put more energy into the newly emerging Southeast Asian market, occupying the market here, and avoiding the vortex of the current battle between the Japanese consortium and the American consortium.

Now the United States is still the world's largest car consumer market, so the major Japanese auto groups want to compete with American auto groups in the United States. Now the major Japanese conglomerates are full of self-confidence, and they don't feel that the United States How powerful the consortium is.

As soon as Zhang Ziyu heard it, he knew that Li Guangyu was going to deepen the relationship with Baodao and Malaysia this time, especially Malaysia. From the looks of it, Li Guangyu was going to build that place into the second Baodao market.

This year, the Lee Consortium has continued to increase investment there, with banks and supermarkets settling in one after another. Xiangjiang Air Transport Group also established a base in its capital Kuala Lumpur, and Xiangjiang Aircraft Engineering Company and the Malay government jointly established a civil aircraft maintenance company.

Now let the Bentley Group also go there to establish a production base, so that the strength and influence of the Lee Consortium in Malaysia will continue to rise, coupled with the connections of the Lee Consortium and its allies there, in the future, the Lee Consortium will develop there It's pretty smooth.

Especially after the Pasib family was knocked out by the Lee Consortium, it played a shocking role in Malaysia. Some local forces are not willing to be enemies with the Li Consortium.

Zhang Ziyu said: "Sheng Li, if the matter is urgent, I can go to Baodao now to negotiate with Dean Sun and the others. I believe they will be very supportive of the construction of our bus production base."

Li Guangyu said with a smile: "Don't be too anxious, you should take a good rest. The travel these days is also very hard. After all, Shuangqing is different from Xiangjiang. The progress on Baodao will be faster. As for Malaysia, just talk slowly. There is no need to rush."

Li Guangyu in Malaysia is not in a hurry. He arranged for Zhang Ziyu to investigate and communicate this time just as a first step. Next year, he will visit several Southeast Asian countries that are currently the main markets of the Lee Consortium. Malaysia is one of his most fancy regions. There will be some investment agreements signed, and this is an investment that Li Guangyu is preparing for.

The relationship between the Aoun family and the Li's consortium is quite good. Alat Aoun will participate in the re-election next year. Li Guangyu very much hopes that he can be re-elected. This is very beneficial to the development of the Li's consortium there. These investments are more favorable to his election.
