Chapter 0387: Xu Weidong's Current Situation

The reason why I want to pull Chen Dongsheng to the overseas market is because the current situation in the European and American markets is especially suitable for domestic car companies to "plug in the foot".

Affected by automobile safety, the sales of major automobile manufacturers in the European and American markets have declined sharply, and major car companies are busy strengthening the design of vehicle body shapes, and a large market share is idle.

Among the domestic car companies, SAIC Volkswagen is a joint venture, and it is unlikely to enter the overseas market, and only FAW Hongqi is the brand that is qualified to enter the European and American markets.

Although Hongqi Dongfeng and Phoenix sedan are both compact models, they take the people-friendly route, the price is very low, and they will definitely be able to eat in the European and American markets.

Therefore, Zhou Jingming specially came to FAW to have an interview with Chen Dongsheng.

"You said the European and American markets. Chen Dongsheng fell into thought, "To be honest, I really haven't systematically understood what the European and American markets are, and I don't know much about automobile exports." ”

For a long time, Hongqi cars have been sold internally, and the output is also very low, that is, in recent years, thanks to the advent of Hongqi Dongfeng car, Hongqi brand is becoming more and more popular, in this area of Northeast China, Hongqi Dongfeng has become the mainstream model of public and commercial vehicles and even private car consumption, and the annual production and sales level has reached more than 10,000 units.

"A series of things that happened in the European and American markets some time ago, Director Chen should have heard about it, right?"

Chen Dongsheng nodded, "The impact of this incident is so great, who else in the domestic automobile industry does not know about this matter." ”

"Director Chen may have only heard about this matter, and the car sales in the European and American markets are not clear, so let's put it this way, because consumers in the European and American markets attach great importance to vehicle safety, and consumers in the European and American markets have a higher degree of recognition for cars like Dongfeng Hongqi, and it is easier to succeed in export projects at this time. ”

Zhou Jingming paused and continued to explain, "At this stage, major European and American automobile manufacturers are seizing the time to strengthen the design of the body, if we do not take advantage of this time to seize the opportunity to enter the European and American markets, at the latest next year, car manufacturers like Volkswagen and General Motors will be able to ease up from the current predicament, and at that time, the competition we face will be very fierce." ”

As soon as Zhou Jingming said this, Chen Dongsheng immediately fell into contemplation, to be honest, he was moved, the country's positioning of Hongqi car has always been the level of world-class luxury cars, if you can take this opportunity to lead Hongqi car to the world, it is a very glorious thing for the Hongqi brand and the entire domestic automobile industry.

"Then do you have any suggestions for the Hongqi sedan to go abroad this time?" Chen Dongsheng asked with burning eyes, in this regard, Zhou Jingming has more say than him.

"I plan to set up a production base in Detroit, USA, and if Director Chen thinks he can, he can also set up a production base in Detroit together, and before the construction of the production base is completed, the cars can be exported to the European and American markets through foreign trade. ”

Zhou Jingming paused, and then continued, "If Director Chen doesn't have any experience in this area, I can take you to try it together." ”

"After all, our FAW is not the same as your Tianming Automobile, it is a state-owned enterprise, and we must obtain the consent of the Ministry of Machinery to engage in exports. Chen Dongsheng nodded and said.

"It's okay, I've already told Director Li, Director Chen, you can call Director Li when the time comes, and I believe that the Ministry of Machinery will definitely agree." ”

Chen Dongsheng couldn't help but glance at Zhou Jingming a few more times, his face was full of gratitude, "Xiao Zhou, I don't know what to say, I really thank you for what you have done for our FAW." ”

"Where is Director Chen, I can have today's achievements, along the way also got the help of many people, especially Tianming Automobile Company can be established, thanks to Minister Rao's appearance, now Minister Rao is gone, I promised him, to realize our country's dream of becoming a strong automobile country, I will work hard to fulfill this commitment. Zhou Jingming smiled and replied sincerely.

Speaking of Minister Rao, Chen Dongsheng also fell into silence, as his old leader, Chen Dongsheng was naturally polite to Rao Bin.

"In my country's automobile industry, there was Minister Rao in the first 30 years, and you in the last 30 years, which is really the luck of my country's automobile industry. Chen Dongsheng looked at Zhou Jingming and said solemnly.

Since he was determined to follow Zhou Jingming to engage in export and foreign trade, Chen Dongsheng immediately called Li Mingzhe to express FAW's willingness.

Li Mingzhe only remembered that Zhou Jingming told him that he needed help again, but he didn't expect that it would be such a thing, although he didn't agree on the spot, but he also showed his support for this decision, but he had to discuss it with the ministry and the Economic Commission first.

Only one day later, the next morning, he called Chen Dongsheng back, saying that the government fully supports FAW's export and foreign trade, and does everything possible to provide political resources for this export strategy.

In this way, Zhou Jingming's purpose of coming to Spring City this time was achieved, because there were still things waiting to be dealt with by Tianming Automobile, so that afternoon, Zhou Jingming was ready to return to Shencheng.

"Director Chen, I will continue to talk to you in detail about the export later, FAW will prepare the vehicle first, and I will contact you if there is anything else." Before leaving, Zhou Jingming said to Chen Dongsheng.

"Okay, contact me if there is anything. Chen Dongsheng nodded.

In this way, Zhou Jingming soon returned to Shencheng, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans Rally officially began in ten days, and Zhou Jingming still had a lot of things to complete before leaving for France, and he could not afford a moment's delay.

The first thing is to prepare for the advertising shooting of the Kirin car, the great success of the Phoenix brand car advertisement, so that Zhou Jingming realized the role of the advertising effect, so this time, Zhou Jingming also wanted to advertise the Kirin car.

Originally, the advertisement for the Kirin sedan should have been broadcast on the day of the end of the press conference, but for various reasons, the advertising shooting has not been carried out, and Zhou Jingming wants to try to see the finished film of this advertisement before going to France.

After preparing the materials, Zhou Jingming was just about to call Zhao Ke and them to come to his office, but the phone rang, and as soon as Zhou Jingming answered, it turned out to be a call from the security room.

"Mr. Zhou, there is a person named Xu Weidong at the door who wants to see you, do you know this person?"

"Xu Weidong?" Zhou Jingming's heart tightened, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition, it stands to reason that according to Xu Weidong's character, if he came to Shencheng, he must have called them ten days ago to meet him at the auto show, and now he came here without saying a word.

Could something be wrong?
