"Hornby is right!" continued an auto tycoon, "This month, the German auto industry in East Asia began to shrink significantly. It is rumored that Huaxia Pengyun Automobile and the Hongxin Group behind it are planning to build a new maglev transportation system, which will radiate to the world from Huaxia. ”

"This is a red flag, we are still blank in the maglev car industry. And the large enterprises in our country and other European countries are continuously providing them with sophisticated auto parts and other technical support, so that they can develop faster!"

"Containment measures must be taken!"

Other bigwigs of the German Association of the Automotive Industry also nodded their heads, of course, in the short term, exporting parts and related technical equipment to the Chinese automobile industry can obtain a lot of benefits. But in the long run, if the Chinese automobile manufacturing industry replaces Germany's position, they will lose even more!

The people at the meeting agreed that the emerging automobile industry in the East should be curbed and their status as an automobile industrial country should be maintained.

This meeting was just the beginning, and the content of this meeting quickly caused another discussion and study in the German Ministry of Economy and Industry.

The results of the study were also not encouraging, and they were surprised to find that a certain country in the East was rapidly rising at a speed beyond the historical development trajectory in the automobile manufacturing industry and the machinery industry in Xianguan.

This month, at the initiative of Germany, the European Commission convened an economic meeting of the member states to discuss exports and technology transfer in the automotive and machinery industries.

The following month, the European Commission submitted to the European Parliament and the Council the European Union an updated Treaty on the Specification of the Automotive Manufacturing and Machinery Industry of the EU Member States, which was quickly ratified and put into force.

The European Union officially announced this treaty to the whole world. Most of them are adjustments to the export regulations for imported industrial products, which have little impact on developed countries such as the United States.

Many of these regulations are almost all aimed at China's high-end industry and automobile manufacturing industry.

China has developed industry for decades, and most of the basic industries can be manufactured by themselves, and the biggest gap with developed countries lies in high-tech and fine processing.

In the treaty, export tariffs on related products have been increased, and restrictions have been made on technology and precision equipment. Originally, some technologies and equipment that could be opened to China have increased barriers to technical protection, and as for things with higher precision and technical content, they are prohibited from being sold to the outside world and authorized knowledge.

As soon as the "Treaty on the Specification of the Automobile Manufacturing and Machinery Industry of the EU Member States" came out, there was an uproar in China.

This is the last time that the United States increased tariffs on China's information technology industry, and China is facing technical pressure from developed countries again!

On the same day, the Ministry of Foreign Trade of the People's Republic of China issued a statement saying that such a treaty would seriously affect the economic and trade exchanges between the European allies and China.

The EU's external spokesman said: "This treaty is not aimed at a specific country or region, but an adjustment of the industrial industry within the EU member states to cope with the new era of industrial development." ”

On the outside, there is nothing excessively about the Treaty. But only those who are familiar with China's industrial system know that a small difference in price or technology will become a huge burden for China's industry.

Lu Zixin received the report as soon as possible, and the Hongxin Group itself will not be greatly affected, but his latest planned automobile industry will face a huge crisis!

In the office, the assistant had already prepared the information and reported to him.

"This EU treaty will directly raise the cost of our industrial production, which is expected to be about 3 to 5 percent! This will lead to the bankruptcy of a large number of small enterprises, the cost of large enterprises will increase, and the profit margins will be reduced. ”

"The worst thing is the automotive industry, it's a punch that will cripple us!"

The assistant projected out the sorted out data and continued: "Automobiles and auto parts are the second largest industrial products imported by China, accounting for more than 6 percent of industrial imports! ”

"As far as the domestic automobile industry is concerned, the annual profit of Huaxia's largest automobile company is less than one-half of that of Germany's Volkswagen! The sales volume of Huaxia's own automobile brands has only reached one-eighth of the world's highest level, and most of them are Sino-foreign joint ventures, with the help of foreign technology and parts production. ”

"The EU's major industrial countries are important sources of components for us. ”

Lu Zixin quickly browsed the information, in terms of automobile sales, Pengyun Automobile was not greatly affected, and the most critical thing was the parts.

Among the world's auto parts manufacturers, there are only two Chinese companies in the top 100 so far! The remaining 98 are all foreign companies!

Pengyun Automobile's core technologies such as unmanned driving, motors, and battery energy are in their own hands, but it is undeniable that without imported auto parts, Pengyun fully autonomous vehicles can only be reduced to low-end cars.

"According to our calculations, after the implementation of this regulation, we will have as many as 34 types of auto parts import costs increase, and six key parts may face product shortages. Direct costs increased by 13.8 per cent, and indirect costs cannot be calculated for the time being. ”

Lu Zixin's fingers tapped lightly on the table, and his mind was thinking quickly. If he wants to promote the industrial revolution, he will inevitably encounter resistance, which he has long expected.

It's just that he didn't expect that this time the EU will act faster than the United States!

Among the industrial products that China must rely on imports from abroad, integrated circuits rank first! In this regard, the Hongxin Group has already collided with the United States and has achieved considerable results.

This time, it is the turn of the second largest industrial product, the automobile and auto parts industry, to collide with the world. The European Union has already taken action, and it will not be long before the United States and other developed countries will introduce various restrictive treaties to jointly suppress them.

This time, the pressure that Hongxin Group will face will not only come from the European Union, but the joint restrictions of many developed countries, which is bound to suppress the development of Huaxia industry, especially the automobile industry chain led by Pengyun Automobile.

Lu Zixin asked: "How many of these parts can be adjusted to the manufacturer?"

The assistant quickly rummaged through the data, shook his head and said, "There are only seven kinds, which can be adjusted to island countries and the United States." In terms of prices, there will also be some increases. ”

"What about the domestic side?"

"For domestic parts manufacturers, the accuracy and strength of their parts are one grade lower than our standard. The assistant said, "Our fully autonomous vehicles have higher requirements for auto parts than high-end cars on the market, and they rely too much on imported parts." ”
