Chapter 485 Plan A and Plan B
Zhang Qihang introduced to Ma Shaojun: "Old leader, in the industrial field, there is a cooperation model called CKD, which is a complete kit assembly.

For example, SAIC’s Santana project adopted the CKD model from the very beginning. The German Wolfsburg Group packaged a complete set of parts including the engine, gearbox, body and even a single screw from the German factory and delivered them to the magic factory. The Du Automobile Factory comes here, while the Modu Automobile Factory assembles these parts into a complete car according to the assembly specification requirements given by Wolfsburg Automobile, and the quality is the same.

As for why this cooperation model is so cheap, it is about the four core processes of automobile production. In the production process of automobiles...including motorcycles...there are four major processes: stamping, welding, painting and final assembly. , the CKD mode is equivalent to completing the previous three processes, as long as the complete set of spare parts is shipped to us for final assembly, so that there is no need to purchase stamping equipment, welding equipment, coating equipment and supporting equipment. There is no need to build a high-standard production plant, just build a similar assembly plant.

And if it is to produce vans, one of the four major processes must be missing. In this way, CKD will naturally save money. "

Ma Shaojun is the head of the regional industrial bureau, and now he is in charge of the industrial development of the whole region. Hearing what Zhang Qihang said, he nodded repeatedly: "I understand it when you say that. If it is this kind of cooperation model, then it is true. It’s to save money, but the whole set of spare parts has to be imported from the other party, so the demand for foreign exchange is relatively large, right?”

He is keenly aware of the benefits and troubles of this cooperation model: saving trouble is saving trouble, but it costs more foreign exchange.

"That's right," Zhang Qihang nodded: "But on this point, we can learn from the Santana sedan of Shanghai Modu Automobile Factory and the Jinbei project of Brilliance, adopt CKD in the early stage, and gradually improve the level of localization later.

Moreover, our country's automobile industry has made great progress over the years, and various supporting industries are also developing continuously, such as glass, tires, wheels, lights... and many other parts, in fact, can be found in China Alternative manufacturers, in this way, we can achieve 'semi-CKD', that is, only import other parts that our country cannot produce for the time being. Finding supporting equipment in China can reduce a lot of costs. After we have rich experience, we can produce all of them by ourselves.

As for foreign exchange, I think so. First of all, our group has its own foreign exchange. In the early stage of CKD, the annual import volume should not be large, and our group’s own foreign exchange should be almost enough to handle it. Even if there is a small gap, I believe it will not be too big. , just need to say hello in advance with the foreign exchange administration. "

"It's all a trivial matter!" Ma Shaojun waved his hand, and he came here full of joy: "If it is really possible to do this, this method is really good... By the way, you said that apart from Santana, Jinbei also did this ?”

Ma Shaojun is very familiar with Santana and Jinbei. He will always see these two cars in front of the office buildings of large and small government agencies, state-owned enterprises and institutions in the area, and even stand on his own. Looking downstairs from the window of his office, there are at least two or three Jinbei and five or six Santanas. If SAIC’s Santana and Brilliance’s Jinbei both go through the path of CKD first and then self-produced, then it is enough to prove this. This cooperation model is a feasible road to success, there is no reason why I can't succeed here.

"Yes," Zhang Qihang replied, "They were all CKD in the early stage, and now Brilliance Auto has basically achieved 70% of Jinbei's self-production. I read a report before, and it seems that Brilliance Auto announced that it will 100% self-produced Jinbei buses will be realized within a short period of time.”

Ma Shaojun nodded again and again: "Since Jinbei and Santana are fine, then we should be fine, OK! I see. I will inform other comrades of your thoughts at the regular meeting tomorrow morning and listen to what other comrades think." , if you have no objections, then after the new year, you can go to Dongying to find out the situation."

"Ok."

Zhang Qihang hurriedly agreed, and he was also relieved: before this, Zhang Qihang was really worried whether Ma Shaojun would insist that it was better to make a van. Looking at it now, this situation will not happen.

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

At around 9:[-] a.m. the next day, it should be the morning meeting of the regional administrative office and the prefectural committee. Zhang Qihang received a call from the secretary of Comrade Zhao Deqing, asking Zhang Qihang to come to the prefectural committee. Comrades Zhao Deqing and Comrades Yan Baoping headed by some leaders in the region would like to know something from him.

Zhang Qihang didn't dare to neglect, and immediately drove straight to the prefectural committee.

Regarding the region's attitude on this matter, Zhang Qihang actually worried too much. After listening to Zhang Qihang's introduction of the situation, the leaders of the prefectural committee did not hesitate at all, and immediately issued instructions: the region will fully support Huateng Industry The group went to Dongying to introduce new models and fully cooperated.

There is also a reason why the regional leaders are so happy about this matter and support Zhang Qihang’s work: Compared with motorcycles, vans are of course more high-end, but there is no doubt that even in this era, vans are still the same. Being at the bottom of the chain of contempt for passenger cars, the previous leaders of the region agreed to produce vans because, given the current situation in Langya region, the only auto industry that can start with and has a greater chance of success is vans, but now, since there are With the channel of Ryuichi Yoneyama, Huateng Industrial Group has the opportunity to manufacture more advanced cars, who would hesitate?
After all, compared to vans, products such as cars and large vans are not only more profitable, but also more face-saving when they are spoken out.

Of course, just to be on the safe side, Comrade Zhao Deqing also gave instructions, telling Zhang Qihang that while preparing for going to Japan, the van side cannot be given up for the time being. If the plan to introduce models to Japan fails, the van project will be used as an alternative plan. Go up.

It's understandable for the leaders to have such thoughts. What if that Ryuichi Yoneyama is bragging that he doesn't have that much power in the Japanese auto industry?

Therefore, it is still necessary to keep one hand. In case the plan to introduce new models from Dongying fails, or the price exceeds the limit that Huateng Industrial Group can bear, there is also a spare plan B here.
