Chapter 303 Breaking the low-level technological monopoly "Pray for a Monthly Pass"

z

The press conference held by Wuyan in Shanghai was less than two days after, and the meeting was held all over the country. His words were probably the most intense gunpowder smell in recent years, and domestic entrepreneurs publicly expressed their views, which caused a very strong response.

So much so that Boss Zhu called in person to ask about the specific situation. After all, some of the words written in the newspaper were taken out of context and could not fully reflect his mood and intention at that time.

However, when the senior management suddenly saw Fan Wubing's words, he was still surprised.

"Your mining theory seems quite interesting, and your words about capital accumulation seem a bit out of place now, but in general, they are still keen and can be said to be very insightful.

"Boss Zhu said to Fan Wubing, "If you have any special thoughts recently, you might as well speak them out, which will also inspire our work."

"Oh, why are you talking about this?: Thoughts. I heard a rumor a while ago and felt it was a bit interesting. Let me read it to you." Fan Wubing looked a little distracted, but Boss Zhu called to ask, and he was embarrassed to turn it off, so he said, "The villages cheated the townships, the townships cheated the county, and the State Council sent documents to the State Council, and read them down layer by layer. After reading the documents, they went to the hotel, but the documents were not cashed at all."

After hearing this rumor, Mr. Zhu said a little amused, "What kind of rumor I heard, isn't this a hindrance to me?"

In fact, Mr. Zhu also knew that this rumor was quite realistic. In the officialdom, he always paid attention to concealing the superiors and deceiving the inferiors, so he cheated on them one by one. This matter cannot be groundless. It is like the acceptance work of civilized and sanitary cities that are carried out every year. It is like the village dealing with the township, the township dealing with the county, the county dealing with the city, the city dealing with the province, and the province naturally dealing with the central government.

It’s not that there must be frauds or something, but in terms of the investment in the workplace, the inspection period is definitely different from the usual treatment. The frequency of sprinkler trucks appearing is many times higher, not to mention how many other paint and repair new equipment are added.

Fan Wubing was not easy to think about causing trouble for his boss. After all, it is not easy to do for a great country, so he mentioned his own automobile industry.

After hearing Fan Wubing’s basic path description, Boss Zhu thought seriously and then said, “After you say this, I’m afraid that those joint venture factories will have no way to survive.”

Nowadays, the main ones are FAW, Automobile, and Shanghai Volkswagen. There are also some small factories, but their strength is not good. Therefore, Boss Zhu is a little worried that Fan Wubing will destroy everyone's jobs after doing this.

In fact, Boss Zhu was very concerned about the localization of the car technology. From the approval of a joint venture with Germany in 1981 to the successful assembly of the first Santana sedan at the Shanghai Automobile Manufacturing Plant in 1983. At that time, people did not know that assembling a Santana was like transplanting a tree. It was relatively easy. Producing a Santana was like transplanting the soil of the tree. That is, all the high-quality parts supporting systems of the car were transplanted to China.

It was not until the late 1980s that the localization of Santana was successful, which meant that the soil of China's automobile industry began to form, and it built a foundation for the later breakthrough and success of Chinese cars.

At that time, Shanghai Volkswagen worked for more than two years. It was less than 3% of the domestic production. It was the retractor, tire, sign and antenna. In the face of doubts from all sides, a Chinese general manager of Shanghai Volkswagen jumped off the building and died. Shanghai Volkswagen received high attention from the central and national governments, from local and industrial areas.

At that time, the country was in short supply. Santana started by assembling a ckd bulk assembly. At that time, it was necessary to use 10,000 US dollars to import parts to assemble a Santana. If the Santana assembly indicators were used up, it would not be domestically produced after it was used up. Shanghai Volkswagen would face a closure and realize domestic production as soon as possible. Saving a large amount of foreign exchange is a problem that needs to be solved urgently. It is both realistic and very serious.

However, at that time, Chinese auto parts companies had many trucks and had never done sedans. Santana was the latest German sedan technology in the early 1970s, and the domestic technology gap was many years behind. At that time, a German reporter came back to Shanghai for an interview and reported that this would be a record of failure. Faced with the technical requirements of mulberry cars, it is a frustrating fact that the national auto parts supporting metropolitan cars had to introduce technology or engage in joint ventures to adapt.

Since it is difficult to localize mulberry parts, FAW and II Automobile have all backfired. I thought some major manufacturers could do the casting and forging parts of the engine cylinder block and crankshaft, but they still couldn't get it out after working for two or three years. The relevant parties believe that the domestic standards can be deviated from, and there can be transitional standards based on national conditions. Adhering to the German standards as speaking for foreigners is to help foreigners lock in the Chinese.

In 1987, Boss Zhu listened to the report on Santana's localization in Shanghai. He said that Santana's localization should be 100% qualified and reduce it a little.

He proposed to establish a Shanghai Santana car domestic community, reconcile the enthusiasm of parts manufacturers to cooperate, and establish a community with shared future with interests as the link.

Later, when I looked back at the Santana domestic community, many parts companies developed with the resources of Shanghai Volkswagen Platform and became the best in the industry and the small giants of parts.

By 1990, Santana's key components such as body, engine, gearbox and front and rear axle assembly were successively domestically produced. At the same time, Shanghai Volkswagen's annual production capacity was formed with 60,000 complete vehicles and 100,000 engines, and established a supporting system composed of more than 180 parts companies across the country that meet the German Volkswagen quality assurance system standards. In August of the same year, Shanghai Volkswagen bid farewell to ckdd, ended the production method of imported bulk parts to produce cars, and finally realized domestic production.

Based on the above, Fan Wubing admires what Boss Zhu has done very much. If he had not stood up to speak or relaxed his requirements at that time, there would not have been a domestic automobile industry that is gradually developing.

"Don't worry, the domestic automobile market is not so easy to saturate." Fan Wubing assured Boss Zhu, "If I do this, it will be beneficial for them. At least those foreigners have to come up with some real materials to compete with me. Otherwise, relying on their technology that should be eliminated will not be able to cheat money in China."

When Boss Zhu heard Fan Wu say this, he nodded with a smile and replied, "This statement is advisable. OK. If someone complains to me in the future, I will just send them away."

China has two original intentions of opening up the market and jointly building cars. One is to rapidly develop the automobile industry, expand China's automobile production capacity, and meet market demand. The other is to trade markets for technology, learn advanced automobile technology, and catch up with the world.

However, overseas giants who have been struggling for hundreds of years are far more savvy than the Chinese. They know which car to build the lowest cost and the highest profit, and they also know how to protect their technological monopoly. Santana, which was formed in Germany in the early 70s, and Jetta, FUCK and Peugeot 505, which were delisted in Europe in the late 1980s, still awkwardly monopolize the Chinese path until the mid-to-late 1990s.

Shanghai Volkswagen later launched the new Santana 2000. Technically speaking, this car basically lengthened the old Santana and modified the shell. However, such a product is still the latest domestic sedan before 1999.

What is even more ashamed is that Shanghai Volkswagen has no ability or strength to independently undertake this small facelift alone. He sent a team of dozens of people to Brazil and Germany. The only thing he could participate in was to increase the length of the car by 100 mm. At this time, people suddenly realized that the desire to trade market for technology was a wishful thinking dream.

The reason why Fan Wubing wanted to build cars was that he couldn't stand these men using these junk to bully the Chinese. He could introduce competition in the automobile market from him, increase the quality of the automobile, and make the price go down, and he would live up to the funds he invested.

But after all, the money you invested in is not the same, at least it is much less than the money you spend on building an airport and a highway, which is still very cost-effective.

After learning from the news that Fan Wubing was about to enter the automobile manufacturing industry, Fan Wubing's young fiancée Shen Ying immediately called over and asked about the specific situation.

"Actually, there is nothing. It's just that I acquired a Japanese automotive technology research institute and digested some of their technologies. Now there is no obstacle to getting a car by myself. After a while, I will drive the first car that was offline for you?" Fan Wubing smiled and held the microphone and said to Shen Ying.

"That's good, but are there any tiger-skin seats?" Shen Ying asked with a smile.

Fan Wubing smiled embarrassedly and replied, "My tiger skin seat was made by Wuzhi small machine in Japan. If I do this in China, I'm afraid it will violate the criminal law. However, the skin of the sika deer is fine, it's the kind that is artificially raised.



"That's all, you can't help but peel such a beautiful animal—" Shen Ying immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.

Fan Wubing shrugged and thought to himself that the tiger is fine, the sika deer is cruel. What is the logic? Logically speaking, the number of tigers is much smaller than that of the sika deer. I really don’t know what the girls are thinking in their hearts?

However, Fan Wubing thought that the first batch of formed vehicles produced by his company would probably be digested by himself, and that one would be delivered by his relatives and friends, and the other would be consumed by the executives and important employees of his own companies.

So in this model, you need to set the standard slightly higher. If it is too simple, you will be embarrassed to take it out and make excuses for others.
