Start from 1980

Chapter 992 Basics
"Speed ​​up the progress of China Zun and Chang'an Association." Su Chen said, "These two projects have taken us too long."

Before that, I thought about making the Chang'an Club and the China Zun stand during the Asian Games, but because there is no level of construction in this area in China, many things are being done while groping, resulting in very slow progress.

And even if the appearance is put together, it will take time to decorate and so on.

This is not a small rural house with one or two floors. It takes time to furnish things like water and electricity.

Yu Xia nodded: "I will let people speed up the construction progress."

"At the same time, we must ensure the complete coefficient of the project, and don't make any tofu projects." Su Chen said.

"Of course."

Of course, the person in charge of the American side of Jeep is in Beijing, but not in the manufacturing workshop, but in another office, because of the cultural differences between China and the United States, and there are many veterans in the factory.

They beat Yankees in Goryeo, but they don't like Yankees anyway.

If Americans dare to compare blindly, they may have to do it.

Even if the situation improves, there is still no way for the US to share the same office with Chinese personnel.

At this time, the general manager of BJC is still St. Pierre. If he hadn't submitted a letter and dared to report the situation, thereby promoting the resolution of the problem, something might have been arguing in the back and forth.

St. Pierre and other American staff also met their new boss for the first time.

I simply said hello.

"Mr. St. Pierre, I only have one thing to do this time. I personally can't change how the project was discussed before, but now I want to add an overseas plan."

Su Chen cut to the chase and said, "Otherwise, relying on the domestic market alone, our production will never be improved."

As long as it develops overseas markets, Jeep can form an industrial chain with suppliers such as Volkswagen, greatly improve product quality, and save worry and effort.

It can also accelerate the industrial chain of domestic automobiles and provide a strong industrial system for the subsequent automobile market.

"This..." St. Pierre didn't rush to agree, and after thinking carefully, he said, "However, this will allow BJ Jeep to expand rapidly, which is not conducive to our market."

Su Chen shook his head: "The market cannot be solved by restrictions, and the more restrictions we have, the more difficult it will be to localize parts in China. Only by loosening restrictions can we speed up localization, otherwise we can only rely on more than 1 parts per year. The amount, that is to starve to death."

"And this is an order, not a negotiation. You just need to formulate a comprehensive overseas plan with the Chinese staff. At the same time, prepare to introduce our second-generation products."

He began to fool St. Pierre again, "You should also know that we have acquired many car brands, not just AMC. I plan to set up a Chinese car group, and I will select the right person to be the president of Asia.

You, who have worked in China for many years, are ahead of others in every aspect. Mr. St. Pierre, I hope that when the Automobile Group was established, you were still in the company. "

The biggest reason for keeping this American is that foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures. If they are local staff, it is very difficult to deal with certain departments.

"Boss, since you ordered so, then I will come up with a suitable plan with the Chinese staff as soon as possible." St. Pierre is not a fool, he was just following the orders of the former boss of AMC.

He also sees prospects in other markets, because Jeep is popular not only in the Americas, but elsewhere as well.

Su Chen nodded: "Very well, then I will leave this matter to you."

There were too many things involved in this project before, and even Su Chen couldn't change a lot of content, so many things can only be operated according to the original agreement.

Condolences to the staff of his own family, and another injection of chicken blood, Su Chen did not stay here for too long.

With the Jeep project, it is also possible to find a cheap mid-to-low-end brand in the future.

And it is no exaggeration to say that whether it is Volkswagen or Guangzhou Peugeot, they all operate based on Jeep. After all, my country has no experience in automobile joint ventures before, so there will be twists and turns.

As for which car to introduce, Su Chen has already thought about it, and that is Skoda from the Czech Republic.

Because Skoda has been well-known by Chinese people as early as the 80s, that is Skoda Favorit.

This hatchback has also been used as a taxi in many cities in northern my country, and it is mainly painted in blue and green.

Many taxi drivers have praised it for its reliable quality and simple technology for easy maintenance.

The Favorit series has earned Skoda a reputation in the Chinese market for its durable leather and high cost performance.

However, its assembly process is not rigorous, causing it to make abnormal noises in the car after a period of use.

The Skoda Favorit, which came out in 1987, can definitely be called the "national car" of the Czech Republic. After its birth, it quickly became the best-selling family car in Eastern Europe at that time, and was also exported to Argentina, Chile, Poland, Russia, Turkey and other countries.

This Skoda Favorit is designed by an Italian car designer. Although the Favorit under the wedge-shaped concept is an Eastern European car, its shape is very Italian car design.

In November last year, amidst the dramatic changes in Czechoslovakia, which led to the reorganization of most industrial enterprises and institutions, one of the priorities of the new national economic policy was the privatization and rapid denationalization of the entire economy.

Officials at the Skoda Automobile plant contacted international giants, including BMW, GM, Renault and Volkswagen.

In the process of contacting several giants, Favorit became the biggest chip in Czechoslovakia.

Without Favorit, Skoda's former Mlada-Boleslav car plant would have had no choice but to be converted into an assembly plant.

At this time Favorit was already the main product of the Mlada-Boleslav Automobile Plant and the entire automotive industry in Czechoslovakia.

The reason why flowers are in prosperity is not for manufacturers such as Volkswagen.

It is because Shengshi not only stated that it will maintain the production of Skoda Favorit, but also provide it with technology for quality and technology updates.

In addition, Shengshi will invest more funds to open a new engine factory with an annual output of 45 to 50 units in the Czech Republic.

Under such attractive conditions, Skoda Auto officially joins the grand family.

The premise of all this is that the Rolls-Royce, Rover, Land Rover, AMC, Rolls-Royce and other cars acquired by Shengshi, otherwise the talk will not have any effect.

Acquisition is not about selling if you want to accept others. It also depends on what bargaining chips you have in hand to make others tempted.

That's the basics.

Including what he said to Dean Zhu in Shanghai, it is also a preparation for the introduction of Skoda.

The introduction of Skoda has been in line with the factors of the right time, place and people.

Use Skoda and Cherokee against Volkswagen and Toyo's Mazda, Toyota, and Honda.

Of course, this is not enough.

Because he doesn't have many mid-range brands, and he is still close to the public.

I have to send warmth to other auto groups, such as Fiat, GM...
