Perfection of Rebirth

Chapter 432: When the money comes

Tianchao has the largest number of automobile companies in the world.According to statistics published in China in recent years, at present, there are more than 130 automakers in Tianchao, and the number ranks among the best in the world.According to the statistics of the Association of Automobile Manufacturers, the sales volume of the top ten automobile companies in the first ten months of 2005 accounted for more than 84% of the total.The remaining more than 120 vehicle manufacturers have a total sales volume of less than 100 million vehicles, most of which have annual sales volumes of less than [-] vehicles, and the fewest have only a few dozen vehicles.

Tianchao has more than 80 domestic auto brands, while in the U.S. market, where the auto industry is most developed, there are only 47 local auto brands.There are only 15 passenger car manufacturers in the United States, while China has reached more than 50.

So what is the supply chain of these enterprises like?
There is no need to mention the joint venture. Basically, what model the joint venture party adopts abroad is similar to what it adopts in China. It does not have much reference value for Jiang Hui.

And the way of state-owned or private enterprises with very small sales volume is of no reference significance.

For several self-owned brands with relatively good sales, most of their supply chain methods are to do what they can do by themselves, and try to adopt a competitive model for what they can't do.

This has certain reference significance for Guanghui Automobile, but it can also be said that the reference significance is not great.Because Jiang Hui believes that the supply chain method of these enterprises is actually an involuntary and helpless choice.

Jiang Hui hopes that Brilliant Automobile will take a different path.

Do what you can, and this Jiang Hui plans to do the same.Most of the self-owned brands can make stamping parts, resin parts and other parts with low technical content and low added value, while those with high technical difficulty and high added value cannot be made by themselves.Jiang Hui hopes that Brilliant Automobile can do the reverse, make the technically difficult ones by itself, and compete with the outside for the less difficult ones.

However, to realize this idea, Guanghui Automobile must master the technology of various core components.

How to master it?
buy! buy! buy!
Parts companies that have mastered the core technology, under normal circumstances, live very well.It is relatively difficult and expensive to acquire them. Without a suitable opportunity, it is not easy to achieve.Fortunately, the subprime mortgage crisis is not far away, and opportunities will soon be in front of Jiang Hui.

However, a penny is hard for a hero, and nothing can be achieved without money.

The current Guanghui Group, except that the acquired ATL can provide batteries for electric vehicles in the future, and companies such as OFILM can provide some parts such as cameras for automobiles, other fields can be said to be blank at present.

According to Jiang Hui's idea, the first step is to acquire a stamping manufacturer.Although generally speaking, the technical difficulty of stamping is relatively low, but Guanghui Automobile can't have no stamping factory and entrust all of them to others.After you have the technology, you will be more flexible when choosing a cooperative supplier.

Since the stamping technology is relatively mature, it is easier to buy, and the monopoly is not so strong. In the world, there will be no such giants as Denso and Bosch. Otherwise, let’s not talk about whether they sell it, Jiang Hui I can't afford it at all, at least within the next year, I absolutely can't afford it.You must know that the sales of these giants are all in units of hundreds of billions.

Jiang Hui has already locked in a stamping manufacturer, which is Ogihara in the island country.Speaking of which, Jiang Hui learned about Ogihara from the news when BYD acquired a mold factory in Ogihara in his previous life.Taking a closer look, it turns out that this company is actually controlled by a Thai company, and the Thai company will also buy Ogiwara's shares at a low price from the bank next year.

This is what Jiang Hui has the ability to acquire now. Manufacturers in other fields will have to wait until next year when some of the group's companies start to go public and the group has sufficient funds before starting to consider.However, the pre-investigation can be carried out in advance. For this reason, Jiang Hui has asked Guanghui Group International Department, Legal Department, Guanghui Investment, and Autohome to transfer several people each to form an automobile industry team to plan to receive parts from various countries. business affairs.

The reason why the international department of the group is involved is mainly because the component companies that Jiang Hui plans to acquire are basically foreign-funded companies.These days, those who master the core technology of auto parts are basically foreign-funded enterprises.

The first task of this automobile industry group is to acquire the Ogiwara company in the island country, which can be regarded as a practice for everyone.

"Today is the inaugural meeting of the group's automobile industry group. Considering that the automobile project has not been announced to the public, we will not hold any ceremony," Jiang Hui said.

In addition to Jiang Hui and secretary Liao Yun, those present at today's meeting were Yang Yan, Minister of International Department, Guan Weidong, Deputy General Manager of Guanghui Investment, Xiang Weiwei, Minister of Legal Affairs, Shi Yi from Autohome, and twelve other members. That's 18 people.When Brilliant Motors becomes famous, it is presumably that today's meeting will leave a heavy page.

"I will personally serve as the team leader of this automobile industry group, and Yang Yan, Guan Weidong, and Shi Yi will serve as deputy team leaders respectively. The purpose of this group is to promote the development of Guanghui Group's automobile projects. In the early stage, it is mainly to acquire At the same time, investigate the situation of international automobile manufacturers, and give reference opinions when the group prepares for acquisitions. Let me first explain to you that Guanghui Group will acquire an automobile manufacturer by 2008 at the latest , and formally entered the automotive industry,” Jiang Hui said.

“Therefore, everyone should understand clearly the access policy and handling process of the automobile industry; give proposals on the location of the factory and its advantages and disadvantages analysis; give suggestions on the models that will be put into production in the early stage, for example, whether to put a large SUV first or a B Class car; give preliminary planning and production capacity considerations for the construction of the factory, etc. I hope that once the group officially starts the automobile project, it can complete the relevant procedures in the shortest possible time and build the factory in the shortest possible time,” Jiang said. Hui said.

According to Jiang Hui's idea, Guanghui Group will have at least two automobile companies, Guanghui Automobile and Guanghui Jaguar Land Rover.The former mainly produces models of its own brand, while the latter, as a joint venture, is responsible for the production of models of the Jaguar Land Rover brand.In the early stage of Guanghui Automobile, it mainly relied on purchasing a certain model platform of Land Rover to develop its own models.

In fact, most of the domestic independent brands developed by imitating the hot-selling models of other brands in the early stage.The difference between Brilliant Motors and them is that one is a legal imitation, and the other is plagiarism.

One day, a Land Rover Aurora accidentally hit a Porsche Macan. The owner of the Aurora was frightened and sat in the cab blankly; the owner of the Porsche thought he had hit a Land Rover and was also stunned.As a result, the two guys got out of the car and took a look, damn it!One is Landwind X7 and the other is Zotye SR8. The atmosphere is instantly relaxed.

This is a joke that Jiang Hui once saw in later generations.This joke can be regarded as a vicious complaint about two major domestic counterfeit artifacts.
