I asked you to save a bankrupt factory and you became the richest man in the world.

Chapter 206 Chapter 95-96: Hillhouse vehicles are targeted! (Two chapters in total)
February 2010, Seoul, the capital of the Cold Kingdom.

Seoul in February is not only not hot, but also very cold, just like Tokyo, the capital of the Land of the Sun!
"President, are you sure you want to do this? I feel that such a measure is very inappropriate!"

"I don't know who came up with such a bad idea. He should be cut to pieces!"

"We are now banning the sale of GDI engines to Hillhouse Vehicles, a small company. This is provoking the most sensitive international trade dispute!" An elegant middle-aged man stood upright in front of his desk and watched intently. Zheng Yixuan, chairman of Xiandai Automobile, said in front of him.

This person is none other than Cui Chengqi, the current head of China Automotive Region!

Cui Chengqi joined Liandai Auto in 1977, and in 2008 he served as the head of the China Business Division of Liandai Auto. Basically, he stayed at Liandai Auto from the beginning of his career. In total, it has been 30 years!

It can be said that the basic base of his online generation cars is very stable.

Although Zheng Yixuan is his boss, the son of his previous boss.

But he strongly disagrees with this policy of his!

If a line-generation car behaves like this, how will its partners view itself?

Who dares to ask for GDI engines in the future?

How to achieve his KPI?

Do the partners of line-generation cars think that line-generation cars will retaliate against them and make them be more honest?
If he plays this way, how will he carry out his work in China in the future!
You know, line-generation cars have just begun to make some progress in China. If things continue like this, he can't imagine how the top three German and Japanese companies will squeeze out the market for line-generation cars!
"Minister Cui, do you think that small companies like Hillhouse Vehicles can't catch your eye and are not qualified to be our rivals?" Zheng Yixuan raised his head and glanced at Cui Chengqi, with a hint of evil in his eyes.

His subtext was not that he thought a small company like Hillhouse Vehicles couldn't catch his eye, but that Zheng Yixuan, the new boss, couldn't catch the eye of an old minister like Cui Chengqi!

"My subordinates are just discussing the matter. Although the current sales volume of first-generation cars in China is more than ten times that of Hillhouse vehicles, for us, this is just a little grasshopper. We really don't need it. Raise troops and mobilize people to target this company!" Cui Chengqi was also very angry, so he tried to persuade him in a gentle tone.

The most important thing in doing business is to make money by being harmonious.

good for everyone!
If you are still a buyer of your own company's products, what does it mean for others to be banned from selling during the contract period?
He really couldn't figure out why Qiandai Auto would target such a company.

Is it just because someone accidentally produced a product that looks pretty good?

"This company is not a little grasshopper, but a tiger that is squatting and developing in China! You have been in China for so long, and you actually treat it with such contempt? Can't you see that the Han model is very important to a company? Transformation?"

"What's more important is that their car has entered a new track. They used different gameplay to defeat our B-class cars. Not only are they alive now, but they are also alive and well!"

"You actually told me that this is just a little grasshopper, and there is really no need for us to launch such a massive campaign against this company?"

"To be honest, Minister Cui Chengqi, I am very disappointed in you!" Zheng Yixuan frowned slightly.

In fact, although his time in China was very short.

But he also knew that the senior executives of Han nationality of the first-generation automobile seriously underestimated the Chinese market at a strategic level, and the introduction of cutting-edge technologies was slow, which seriously hindered product strength.

He used to think that others were exaggerating, but after seeing Cui Chengqi's performance, he had to re-examine the situation.

He worked so hard to develop first-generation cars not just for his own status and position.

The key is.

As the only country that has crossed the threshold of developed countries in the past 50 years, Hanguo has always been a symbol of prosperity and development in the eyes of Chinese people.

However, Hanguo's own domestic demand is limited.

Their core appeal is to expand outward!

As an export-oriented economy, the key to its rise and stable development lies in the stability of its industrial niche.

Therefore, now in an unfamiliar country, a company has developed on an unfamiliar track, and is developing very well. This has seriously affected the stability of the ecological niche of Hanguo's automobile products, which is similar to that of Huaguo's automobiles.

In addition, this matter has attracted Zheng Mengjiu's attention. How can this not make him anxious!
He couldn't do anything about it, so he naturally had to take action.

This is not a matter of whim, this is a core issue of future survival.

And Zheng Yixuan, the new head of Line Generation Automobile, naturally realized this clearly after Zheng Mengjiu communicated with him.

He hopes to get rid of Hillhouse's vehicles directly when they are weak!
Seeing Zheng Yixuan's serious expression, Cui Chengqi seemed to have thought of something as an employee trained in a country with strict etiquette.

It can be said that the hierarchical relationship in modern Han country society is stricter than any other country in the world, no, any country in East Asia.

China, a country of etiquette, will have friends year-round. We insist on equality for everyone.

But in the cold country, the culture of "predecessors" is deeply rooted in the bones.

Cui Chengqi bowed very formally at 90 degrees and said, "Okay! This is my problem! President Zheng, now I will implement this plan and ensure that the task is completed!"

Although he was arrogant and a native of Han, he was shocked and surprised that Zheng Yixuan attached so much importance to an ordinary Chinese small business, but he chose to carry out the work unconditionally.

Zheng Yixuan stared at him for a while, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile, "Minister Cui, you don't need to be so serious. Indeed, compared to us, Hillhouse Vehicles is just a little shrimp that has not yet established itself! What you need now What we have to do is to directly suppress them to death! If they are not suppressed to death, their development will be slowed down, do you understand!"

"Okay! I understand! President Zheng!" After saying that, Minister Cui made another formal 90-degree bow!
"Very good! There is only one reason to move forward, but there are a hundred reasons to retreat. Many people find a hundred reasons all day long to prove that they are not cowards, but never use one reason to prove that they are warriors. The country of China is very rich. Development potential! I know you have encountered a lot of constraints. I am in Seoul and I will help you solve some of the problems." Zheng Yixuan nodded.

He also knew that the internal struggles of Linedai Automobile's China branch were constantly fighting for power and profit. However, Linedai's headquarters only contributed one qualification and no other resources, and its technology and operations were relatively weak.

These are all done by the Huaguo branch!
Therefore, Zheng Yixuan's current promise can be regarded as a stick and a date.

Let Cui Chengqi work hard for him with peace of mind.

Cui Chengqi was also overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly replied, "President Zheng, I will work hard! I will definitely not let down your trust!"

Zheng Yixuan smiled and said nothing, just patted his shoulder gently and left.

【Chapter 96】

It was just past 6 o'clock in the morning, and Gao Huaijun was still asleep in his bedroom, but he was woken up by the ringing of the phone. ,

This is his backup phone. Only a few family members and a few company subordinates know the number.
Generally speaking, although his backup phone is not turned off, subordinates will not call unless it is a positive situation.

He sat up with dissatisfaction, rubbed his still dry eyes with his hands, picked up the cell phone that was still vibrating, his face condensed, and he answered the phone, "What's the emergency!"

"Mr. Gao, something is not going well right now. I need to inform you urgently!" It was Wang Fengying's call. "Speak slowly, explain the cause and effect clearly, don't worry!" Gao Huaijun rubbed the corners of his dry eyes. Because he had just woken up, his head was feeling heavy now.

Wang Fengying stabilized her mind. She had never encountered such a situation before. She knew that she was trapped. Then she said in a deep voice, "There happened to be a fire at the line foundry factory in Jeonbuk, Han State. The factory where the fire occurred happens to produce the range extender engine used by our Han Dynasty, and it will also be the range extender engine that Qin will use in the future!"

"Now that they are doing this, it completely disrupts our deployment of new Hillhouse vehicle models..."

Wang Fengying organized her thoughts and told Gao Huaijun roughly what happened at around 4 o'clock in the morning today.

But in order to prevent Gao Huaijun from making wrong decisions, she did not add fuel to the fire. Instead, she briefly explained the relationship between the sub-factory and Hillhouse Vehicles in detail.

Simply put, as the sales of Hillhouse vehicles continue to increase, the demand for range extenders is also increasing.

Moreover, Hillhouse vehicles have relatively high requirements for the quality and power of gasoline engines, and there are very few companies that can produce engines and sell them externally.

It is mainly monopolized by UMC, Delphi Electric and others.

These companies are very exclusive!
Therefore, the range of Hillhouse vehicles that can be chosen is actually very narrow.

In terms of cost performance, we can only choose the line-generation GDI engine as the sole supplier.

The number of Chinese companies in the list of the top 100 global auto parts suppliers is very small.

As the world's largest automobile production and sales base, China's role as an automobile parts supplier is almost insignificant.

According to the Top 100 Global Auto Parts Suppliers list released by Automotive News, among the top 23 global auto parts suppliers, 23 are Sun Country companies, 18 are Beautiful Country companies, 8 are German companies, and [-] are Cold Country companies. There are three Maple Leaf companies.

And what about Huaguo?

The quantity is 0!

However, none of the range extender engines supplied by Huaguoneng can meet the needs of Hillhouse vehicles!
This also laid the foundation for what happened today!
This is also impossible.

As Gao Huaijun said.

Huaguo Automobile and the corresponding automobile industry chain are really not good enough!

However, at the critical moment when Hillhouse's vehicle was twisting and turning, it was developing in a wretched way.

There is a big problem with the key range extender gasoline engine!
This factory in Jeonbuk is their core factory for engine production, so even if the fire in their company is extinguished, it will be very difficult to resume work and production!

You know, the cold country is not the Chinese country.

The re-production of this engine requires government departments to accept it before it can be re-produced.

I don’t know how much time I have to waste over and over again!

"Have you had a round of communication with them? How long will it take for them to resume production? How long can we sustain it?" Gao Huaijun was all sleepy at this time. He stood on the terrace of the villa to calm down for a moment and asked directly.

"What they mean is...for the time being, there are some products in stock that have been produced, but they can only last for a month at most. As for our company, in order to save accumulated funds and costs, we are basically operating with zero inventory. It only stores one month’s worth of engines. This adds up to two months.”

"As for when they will resume production, they themselves cannot determine."

"I'm sorry! Mr. Gao! This is mainly my own problem!"

Wang Fengying has been making cars for so long, but she never expected to encounter such a serious problem.

Here I couldn't help but apologize with difficulty.

She herself felt that she could not escape the blame this time!
This time, Hillhouse Vehicles was really tricked!
The range extender engine, that's the core of the car's core.

Replacing core components is not just as simple as changing a tire on a bicycle.

This involves the replacement of a large number of internal parts, and the size adaptation is even more of a headache.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel dizzy!
This is the biggest crisis since the establishment of Hillhouse Vehicles!
Gao Huaijun couldn't help but feel nervous.

The first reaction in his mind was that this matter was not simple!
The materials used to produce engines are not like flammable and explosive interior decoration factories or firecracker factories. They are mainly made of refractory metal materials. He couldn't figure out how a fire could happen so easily!
This matter, no matter from which angle, reveals something evil.

Moreover, Han Country has a lot of disgraceful black history in this regard.

Sansang Company in the cold country has fires in its memory manufacturing factory.

Could this matter be of the same nature as Sansang Company?

possible!
However, he didn't understand why he wanted to engage in Hillhouse vehicles.

Hillhouse vehicles are far behind compared to first-generation vehicles in terms of their status in the automobile industry!

There is absolutely no need to use such shady means to build high-end vehicles for line-generation cars.

"If apologizing works, then why do we need the police?"

"Now is not the time to investigate who is responsible for the problem. Besides, I am the one who finalized and made the decision about this engine, not you!"

"What you have to do now is to make a detailed plan and give it to me within today and tomorrow. I will judge the next step. This action is very important for Hillhouse Vehicles." Gao Huaijun said Zi interrupted Wang Fengying's apology and said directly.

The key to stopping losses in time is in time.

What can convince a person is never the truth, but the southern wall. What can enlighten a person is never preaching, but suffering.

No one's dissuasion will make you realize anything. What can really make you wake up from a dream and see through the world is experience, loss, regret, and hurt!
Anger and punishment now mean nothing to Gao Huaijun.

Gao Huaijun is not like some small-scale bosses. If his subordinates do something wrong, he will scold them like a grandson, and they will be scolded to death!

After suffering a loss, how to deal with and make changes in a timely manner, and how to deal with a major crisis clearly, is the most critical.

"Okay! Mr. Gao, I'll go to the company right away and we'll discuss a solution this morning!" Wang Fengying understood instantly and replied firmly.
