Chapter 132 New State-Owned Enterprises
"The stronger China is, the more secure we are!"
The president of the Indonesian Chinese Chamber of Commerce made no secret of saying such things to Han Hao.
Ten years ago, the anti-Chinese turmoil caused huge losses to the Chinese in Indonesia. However, with the recovery and improvement of China's national strength, overseas Chinese also feel that they are puffed up in the end, and there are powerful Chinese countries around the world to support them.
Although it has blossomed and scattered all over the world, the overseas Chinese circle still has a very strong affection for Chinese mainland, which may be the lingering imprint of the motherland in the hearts of the descendants of Yan and Huang.
The first time Zhonghua Group entered the foreign market, it was basically introduced or helped by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, and they are a valuable asset of China scattered overseas. At the beginning of China's reform and opening up, overseas Chinese took the lead in responding and returning to the mainland to invest, setting a good example for Western international capital to enter the mainland.
"You are welcome to continue to return to the mainland to invest!"
Seeing this, Han Hao responded with a smile.
"Mr. Han, you are joking, at present, a rich man like you in China is much richer than us. It is no exaggeration to say that I visited the Chinese capital five years ago, and when I went back to the Olympics last year, I found that there had been a drastic change.
Although there is always negative news about China abroad, we know that China is indeed becoming stronger step by step. Because in the past, you couldn't hear the news from China at all, but now because you are strong and have a presence, the Western media will pay attention to it. ”
The president of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce didn't dare to pose in front of Han Hao, because everyone knew how fierce the characters in front of him were.
Han Hao's net worth, many people speculate that he may replace Hong Kong's Li Chaoren as the richest Chinese in the world this year, so the meeting with Han Hao's richest man contains huge business opportunities, attracting many Indonesian Chinese business representatives to attend.
"There are many investment opportunities in China, and many specialties like Indonesia can be exported to the mainland market. For example, our Chunghwa Group and its tire companies need to import a large number of rubber products every year, and this visit to Indonesia I plan to see if I can find long-term cooperative suppliers and intend to invest in the upstream. ”
In addition to hedging futures through financial means, Han Hao also intends to directly invest in upstream fields such as rubber plantations, so as to further extend the industrial chain, so as to obtain higher profits and voice power.
However, this time, the first task is about the recruitment of Huaxia motorcycle agents, so that the major Indonesian Chinese businessmen compete fiercely.
To enter the local market, Zhonghua Group needs to rely on Chinese businessmen, but it cannot rely solely on Chinese businessmen.
This is the truth that Han Hao realized after experiencing foreign markets such as Russia, Vietnam, India, etc., Chinese businessmen are suitable as pathfinders, but to a certain extent, they still need to localize their operations, and they should not only limit the circle to Chinese, but should attract more local powerful local businessmen to join.
In this recruitment of the first batch of Huaxia motorcycle dealers, Han Hao only took out 50% of the share to provide to the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, and the rest will recruit local Indonesian merchants to operate.
Each country will have its own special national conditions, so local operation is the best choice.
With the influence of the 2008 Olympic Games and the continuous export of Chunghwa Group's products, Zhonghua and Huaxia have entered the top five among the candidates for China's well-known international brands.
In addition, Zhonghua Group has achieved success in India, Vietnam and other markets, and Indonesian Chinese businessmen have great confidence in the entry of Huaxia motorcycles into the local area, and compete fiercely with the mentality of grabbing is earning.
To this end, they not only agreed to the request of Zhonghua Group to pay for the goods, but also agreed to invest heavily in the construction of Huaxia Motorcycle dealership to create a first-class business place.
According to preliminary estimates, the advance payment for these Chinese businessmen's orders alone is as high as 300 million yuan, and they are not worried that Han's richest man will donate money and run away.
Because the news that Zhonghua Group is going to set up a motorcycle production plant in Indonesia has spread, and the advanced export will be replaced by domestic production, everyone is full of confidence in the performance of Huaxia Motorcycle.
The longer-term plan is the agency of Zhonghua Group's automobiles in the future, you must know that the economy has developed to a certain extent, and the motorcycle is followed by the wave of automobiles, and the richest man in South Korea has grasped the development trend in the next one or two decades.
"Aren't you afraid that we won't be able to beat the Japanese Honda and Suzuki motorcycles? They are now the hegemon of the Indonesian market!"
In the face of unreserved superstition, even Han Hao couldn't help but remind the other party to pay attention to investment risks.
"We have done an analysis early on, and compared with Japanese brands, Huaxia motorcycles are more suitable travel tools for national conditions. Cheap price, durable quality, and the after-sales system established by us can definitely beat the Japanese motorcycle army.
The scenes that happened in the Vietnamese and Indian markets will be repeated here, and no one can resist the competitiveness of high-quality products from China.
What's more, you are a well-known state-owned enterprise in China, and with the backing of the state, we are not worried about failure. ”
The Chinese businessmen who joined the dealer team swore that they had already prepared to do a big job.
"State-owned enterprises"?
Knowing that Zhonghua Group is the largest private enterprise in China, why does the Chinese Chamber of Commerce of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce swear that it is a state-owned enterprise?
Han Hao understands very well that the company is now controlled by himself, and the only thing that has anything to do with the state is that there are national teams such as the National Social Security Fund on the stock market, but the operation of the enterprise is his own decision.
"Zhonghua Group is a privately held enterprise, which is fundamentally different from state-owned enterprises. But don't worry, even if we are not state-owned enterprises, our competitiveness is as good as that of state-owned enterprises!"
There was a mistake in front of the actual controller of Zhonghua Group, and Han Hao had to stand up in person to correct the other party's point of view.
"Maybe what we just said is not very accurate, your Zhonghua Group should be a 'new state-owned enterprise' in the strict sense, and the nature is not about the ownership and control of the enterprise, but about the national will of China behind it!
In the eyes of our overseas Chinese, China's most competitive export products are the motorcycles and automobiles of Zhonghua Group, especially after the acquisition of Land Rover and Volvo, Zhonghua Automobile has become famous all over the world.
What you do is in line with the national strategy, and the will of the country is behind it. If any country wants to attack the China Group, the Chinese government will definitely stand up for you, which is the core interest of the country and the embodiment of China's will. ”
The words of the president of the chamber of commerce sounded quite reasonable, and Han Hao found that he couldn't find a reason to refute the "new state-owned enterprise".
If other countries attack GM and Toyota, the US and Japanese governments will certainly not give up. Of course, if the Zhonghua Group suffers a loss in international competition, the Chinese government will certainly not sit idly by, which is also the confidence of Han Hao to dare to go abroad and invest in a large amount.
I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain.
Unexpectedly, this visit has improved his horizons, and this "new state-owned enterprise" is indeed worth thinking about by Han Hao.
Deeply cultivating the peripheral markets of the third world such as Indonesia, with an eye on the future, the global automotive incremental market will come from this. China's auto market has grown dividends for at least ten years, and after ten years, it may need to fight in incremental markets such as Indonesia.
Every time he returns from a business trip, Han Hao likes to sit by the window of a private jet and have a bird's-eye view of the entire Jiangzhou city, especially at night, when the stars are shining, the lights of thousands of homes under the wings, and the endless traffic on the highway fascinates him.
Han Hao found himself watching the city of Jiangzhou grow and expand little by little, and the former wasteland on the outskirts of the city has now become high-rise buildings, revealing the vicissitudes of life in China from another angle.
Especially when you just come back from Southeast Asia this time, you can know that China's economy has surpassed each other when you look down at the city scene from above, as long as you can see it from the brightness range of the city's lights. As soon as you enter the sky above Zhehai Province, the ground lights are continuous from the coastline, and the agglomeration effect of urban agglomeration is very strong.
The rapid development of Zhonghua Group is inseparable from the support of the people in its hometown, and the two major brands of automobiles in Zhonghua and Huaxia have become the standard for Zhejiang businessmen to start a business. Many business partners can lock down businessmen from Zhejiang Sea at a glance from the two major areas of handing cigarettes and driving vehicles when they first meet, and Zhejiang businessmen are also proud of this, after all, the car is the same as the richest man in Han.
This shows that after years of brand building, Zhonghua Group's products have won the trust of the Chinese people, and the brand image has been greatly improved, at least no longer trapped by the limitations of domestic cars, but can be compared with joint venture vehicles.
The Jiangzhou municipal government once again acted as the first example of eating crabs in the country. The complex of Toyota Coaster and the head of the unification of the bus that Han Hao has never forgotten has finally ushered in a strong challenger.
In order to benchmark Coaster Bus, China Bus has specially developed the "Pengcheng" Bus, hoping to enter the high-end bus travel market. Judging from the name "Pengcheng", it contains the good wishes of those who hope to take Pengcheng.
In order to make passengers more comfortable, new configurations such as retarder, airbag shock absorption, disc brake, etc., and an intelligent control system has also been added to the electrical system, which can make the driver more simple and convenient to control the entire bus.
Coaster can kill all sides because of the strong bus space transformation ability, in view of the need for VIP seats and other characteristics of the chief's travel, "Pengcheng" bus also provides a comprehensive modification service, so that it looks more like a small luxury and comfortable mobile conference hall.
Hongqi can't be challenged as a state-designated courtesy car, but it shouldn't be a problem to get another designated car, Toyota Coaster, off the horse.
Different from the price range of 40-600,000 yuan for the standard version of Coaster, the price of "Pengcheng" is lower, and it only takes 25-400,000 yuan to drive away. Of course, the cost in the field of modification is also more cost-effective than Toyota.
The annual sales volume of Coaster is more than 2,000 vehicles, but the demonstration effect of leading travel brought by it should not be underestimated, which has virtually raised Toyota's brand image in China.
Knowing that the "Pengcheng" Chinese bus was unveiled, the Jiangzhou Municipal Government first ordered 5 buses for the city's official reception activities.
At the handover ceremony of the new car, Han Hao made an unprecedented appearance on the scene, showing his desire to occupy this special market.
As long as the feedback from the Jiangzhou government using the "Pengcheng" Zhongba is good, I believe that the Zhejiang Provincial Government and other inland cities in the province will also follow up, which is the support of the people in the hometown for Zhonghua Group.
