Chapter 989 Wait and see what happens?

After answering, Zhang Fujio asked Seto Hiroyuki: "Seto-kun, what do you want to say?"

"Hi!"

Hiroyuki Seto responded and said, "Your Excellency, President, what I mean is, should we give up the cooperation with GAC Group and cooperate with Huateng Industrial Group instead?"

"Give up the cooperation with GAC Group?" Hearing Hiroyuki Seto's words, Fujio Zhang frowned, and said slowly, "You mean..."

During this period of time, GAC Group has been in contact with Stealing Oil Automobile, hoping that the two companies can establish a joint venture, and even GAC Group has already thought about the model to be introduced, which is the main medium-sized car under Stealing Oil: Camry , the car with the Chinese name Jiamei.

"Hi! That's what you think," Seto Hiroyuki bowed again, and said, "The reason why Huateng Industrial Group has shown such a strong research and development capability is because they really attach great importance to research and development, but On the other hand, it is also because they have no way to get external product and technical support. They can’t do nothing like China’s FAW and SAIC, and they can make money while lying down. This situation forces them to do it. Research and development, but what if we steal oil otters are willing to actively provide them with hot-selling products so that they can make money without spending money and effort on research and development?"

This is not a bad way...

Fujifu Zhang nodded slowly. In fact, before this, Hongda Automobile, which is the same as Dongying Automobile's leading enterprise with Stealing Oil, also proposed a similar idea. The ability has turned Huateng Industrial Group into a "quasi-zombie" automobile manufacturer that survives only on Dongying Automobile's technical blood transfusion: it seems that it makes a lot of money every year, but it is actually just a carrier for Japanese automobile companies to make money in China, or It is said to be a platform, but they themselves do not have any technical research and development capabilities.

There is no question, this approach is in the best interest of Dongying Automobile Industry, and can also achieve the strategic goal of Dongying Automobile Industry to fully occupy China's automobile industry, but I don't know why, after Hongda Automobile mentioned this matter before, it did not After reading the following, I don't know what the situation is.

For Zhang Fujio, of course, this unknown situation should be highly vigilant.After thinking for a while, Fujio Zhang said to Hiroyuki Seto: "Mr. Seto, your suggestion is very good, but to tell you the truth, before this, HTC Motors had made a similar suggestion to me."

"what?"

Hearing Fujio Zhang's words, Hiroyuki Seto was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "You refused?"

"No," Zhang Fujio said, "What Hongda Motors meant before, in the matter of Huateng Motors, it is that their Hongda Motors are the main ones in this matter. Our several automobile manufacturers divide their own territories. For this Assuming that, the President and I both agreed."

"..."

Hiroyuki Seto stopped talking, and quietly listened to Zhang Fujio's narration.

Zhang Fujio went on to say: "But I don't know why, after Hongda Motors made this suggestion with me, there has been no movement since then, and now you have made a similar suggestion, Mr. Seto, I have to contact Hongda Motors. Communicate and determine if they've given up or are on the move."

"what……"

Hiroyuki Seto said "ah", "I see."

Indeed, if Hongda Motors had already prepared to "do something" with Huateng Industrial Group before, it would be inappropriate for the oil thief to stretch out his foot again at this time.

Zhang Fujio responded, and said, "Seto-kun, don't worry, I'll communicate with HTC's Yoshino-kun first to see what HTC's side means."

"Hi!"

Hiroyuki Seto hurriedly agreed.

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

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Fujio thought for a moment, then picked up the phone and called Yoshino Toshio.

The call was connected quickly, and Toshio Yoshino sounded in a good mood: "Mr. Zhang, how are you?"

"Hello Yoshino-kun." After exchanging pleasantries and greetings with Toshio Yoshino, Zhang Fujio said, "Yoshino-kun, there is something I want to ask you about."

Yoshino Toshio's tone was serious: "What's the matter, Mr. Zhang, tell me."

"It's like this," Zhang Fujio said, "Now in the capital of Huaxia, they are holding the largest auto show in China. You should know about this, right?"

Yoshino Toshio on the other end of the phone frowned: "Of course I know, but this kind of thing shouldn't make Mr. Zhang call me personally, right?"

"Well," Fujio Zhang responded, and then said: "The person in charge of our Stealing Oil Otter Huaxia Branch, Mr. Seto Hiroyuki, just called me to report a situation, saying that Huaxia Huateng Industrial Group launched at this auto show A hybrid concept car, it is said that the fuel consumption per 4.5 kilometers can reach [-] liters..."

"How could such a thing happen?"

On the other end of the phone, Toshio Yoshino's tone was very surprised, and his brows were already frowned: Even Hongda Motors has not launched its own hybrid car, and a Chinese car manufacturer has launched its own hybrid car. Power car?
Even though Zhang Fujio has said that this is just a concept car, usually there is still a long way from concept car to mass production, and even many concept cars will not be mass-produced at all, but even so, I am proud of myself The incomparable Yoshino Toshio still felt that he couldn't accept it.

"Yes," Zhang Fujio replied, "As for the specific situation of this concept car, Mr. Yoshino, you can ask HTC's personnel in China to confirm it, but this is not the focus of my call. I want to ask What's more, I remember you told me before that you want to strengthen the cooperation with Huaxia Huateng Industrial Group to prevent Huateng Group's research and development capabilities, so Yoshino-kun, can you tell me, HTC What step has been achieved now? I made a special search, and it seems that I didn’t find any news about the cooperation between HTC and Huateng Auto.”

"..."

Yoshino Toshio on the other end of the phone fell silent.Thinking of the previous contact between Hongda Automobile and Huateng Industrial Group, Toshio Yoshino felt his face was hot.

Yoshino Toshio didn't speak, Zhang Fujio wasn't in a hurry, just waited quietly.

After more than half a minute, Toshio Yoshino finally spoke: "Mr. Zhang, I have to tell you with great shame that the contact between our Hongda Automobile and Huateng Group was not smooth."

"Oh?"

Although it was a surprised tone, Zhang Fujio was not at all surprised by Yoshino Toshio's answer: If it went well, news would have spread out a long time ago.

After speaking again, Toshio Yoshino's tone was a little low: "In the previous contact, we HTC Motors gave very generous conditions, for example, we are willing to provide HTC Motors' main model in the field of compact cars: CIVIC to They even agreed to use their Huateng Industrial Group's own engine and gearbox, but even so, Huateng Group still rejected us."

"Why?" Zhang Fujio's tone was a little surprised: "Why did he reject you?"

As HTC's biggest competitor in Japan and globally, HTC's product lines and product types have always been the focus of attention and analysis by oil thieves, and the model of HTC CIVIC is HTC It is one of the most classic and most competitive products in the field of compact cars. Fujio Zhang believes that it is impossible for Huateng Group to not know about this product. It can be said that as long as it can introduce this car, sales will be guaranteed. Sales are guaranteed, and profits are naturally guaranteed.

So here comes the question, since Huateng Group knows this, why did it reject HTC?Isn't it nice to lie down and count money?
Toshio Yoshino sighed, and said: "Mr. Zhang from Huateng Group said that CIVIC is indeed a very good product, but Huateng Group hopes to follow the example of Hongda Automobile. Let Huateng Group cooperate instead of asking others to cooperate."

"hiss……"

Fujifu Zhang couldn't help but gasped. From Toshio Yoshino's words, he felt the ambitions of Huateng Industrial Group and Zhang Qihang in the automotive field.

On the contrary, Toshio Yoshino was not at all surprised by Zhang Fujifu's shock. He smiled bitterly and said, "So, Mr. Zhang, you are also very shocked by Mr. Zhang from Huateng Group's answer, right?"

Fujifu Zhang did not deny it, nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Zhang's ambition is beyond my imagination."

"In the end, we decided to put the CIVIC car in Dongben," Toshio Yoshino talked again, and said, "I have been paying attention to Huateng Group in the past few years, and I noticed that they have been improving their technical level. It has successively established cooperative relations with top international chassis tuning and development companies and engine development companies such as British Lotus Company, Prodrive Company, Cosworth Company, and Austrian AVL Company.

If a company does not have strong ambitions, it is impossible for him to invest such a large amount of money to do these things... So Zhang Jun, after seeing these actions of Huateng Group, Hongda Automobile has already regarded Huateng Automobile as As the biggest competitor in China, I no longer think about cooperating with them. If you want to try it, I fully support it and sincerely wish you success. "

"..."

Hearing Toshio Yoshino's words, Fujio Zhang couldn't help laughing wryly: Even Hongda Automobile has encountered such a big problem with the Huateng Group, so can stealing oil be an exception?
but……

"Mr. Yoshino, there is one thing I don't quite understand," Zhang Fujio asked Toshio Yoshino: "You should know that Huateng Industrial Group is a provincial enterprise owned by Huaxia Lu Province."

"Yes, I know, and I also understand what you mean," Toshio Yoshino replied, "We thought about this at the beginning, since Mr. Zhang Qihang's road is blocked and has become a stumbling block, why don't we think of a way?" Just remove this stumbling block?"

Fujifu Zhang nodded again and again: "Yes, that's what I mean."

"We did try to lobby and publicize some officials in Lu Province. Some officials refused, but some officials agreed to help us, but the results were very disappointing," said Toshio Yoshino in a depressed tone: " When these people brought up this matter at some meetings, based on which they believed that Mr. Zhang Qihang was too conservative, and suggested that the province replace Huateng Group with a new general manager, Mr. Zhang Qihang said that he could start from the general manager of Huateng Group. There is no problem at all in retiring from the manager's position, but if the new person takes office, the company's performance will drop sharply, and the taxes and dividends paid to the province will be greatly reduced. Who will bear the responsibility? What will be used? To take on this responsibility?"

"Ah? This...this..."

Fujifu Zhang was suddenly dumbfounded.

Dongying is also a member of the Huaxia cultural circle, and has a similar way of thinking in many aspects such as thinking logic. He instantly understood the power of Zhang Qihang's words: If Zhang Qihang didn't say these words, then this suggestion would be An ordinary personnel suggestion, but with Zhang Qihang's words as a basis, if the guy who replaces Mr. Zhang Qihang can lead Huateng Industrial Group to develop well, that's fine, but if it doesn't develop well , This is the great political stain who made the suggestion at the beginning: don't say anything, you stand up and take responsibility.

The current Huateng Industrial Group is already a huge industrial manufacturing group with annual sales of more than 200 billion U.S. dollars. Even if the turnover only drops by 10%, it will lose at least 20 billion U.S. dollars in turnover a year.

How much tax can a turnover of 20 billion US dollars bring?How much net profit can it bring?Most importantly, how much added value can be pulled in the industrial chain?
It's fine if no one mentions this kind of thing, but once someone brings it up, no one can take the responsibility, and it's even more impossible for those officials who are more cunning than one to take responsibility for it-this is The responsibility is not something they can afford.

Toshio Yoshino was not at all surprised by Zhang Fujio's reaction on the other end of the phone. He smiled wryly and said, "So Zhang Jun, you have seen that we Hongda Motors have to give up. You still have to try to steal the oil otter car." for a while?"

Fujio Zhang took a deep breath and said, "I need to think about it."

"I totally understand and wish you success."

Yoshino Toshio nodded, not surprised at all, there are always some people who think that he can definitely do things that others can't do.

………………

Facts have proved that Dongying people are really stubborn. Although Toshio Yoshino had already spoken so clearly, Fujio Zhang, after some serious thinking, still called himself to Toshio Yoshino after finishing the call with Toshio Yoshino The result was told to Hiroyuki Seto, and finally, he said to Hiroyuki Seto: "Mr. Seto, the situation is like this. The situation in front of you is very difficult, but even if it is like this, do you still plan to try it?"
