After saying this, Xu Weidong did not continue, but looked at Zhou Jingming and waited for Zhou Jingming to give the following words.

After listening to what Xu Weidong said, Zhou Jingming also fell into contemplation, the current output of Xiaofuwa cars, still rely on the two production bases in Shencheng and Gusu City, and the production capacity scale when it was first put into the market in 1992 is still the same as that of 150,000 Xiaofuwa cars per year.

Although since last year, Tianming Company has begun to implement the "500,000 Plan" under the proposition of Zhou Jingming, but whether it is Yangcheng or Yanjing, the annual production base of 100,000 vehicles has still not been completed, let alone the annual production base of 150,000 vehicles in Chuncheng.

Some time ago, Zhou Jingming also went to these three places and inspected the construction progress of the three local production bases, but since then, Tianming Company has entered the research and development of Yixuan SUV, and Zhou Jingming has no heart to take into account the implementation of the "500,000 plan".

Now that Xu Weidong has put the problem in front of him, Zhou Jingming suddenly remembered that the company still has this project unfinished.

"Second brother, at present, the output of Xiaofuwa cars can only be maintained at the scale of 150,000 units per year, and the 500,000 plan is still in progress. Zhou Jingming paused, and then continued, "Otherwise, the Myanmar market will be slowed down for the time being, and the markets of Singapore and Thailand will be stabilized again, and the Southeast Asian market will be completed within three years, but this year is just the first year, so I can't be in such a hurry." ”

Zhou Jingming is not worried that the Japanese car companies represented by Toyota will fight back against Tianming, because this is an inevitable thing. In fact, since March this year, Toyota has focused more on the Southeast Asian market, launching a number of new models and carrying out a series of activities to reach consumers.

But in this case, the little Fuwa car can still be sold from Bangkok to the rest of Thailand, and then from Thailand to Singapore, this is because the low price is one thing, what really makes Zhou Jingming fearless is that the quality of the little Fuwa car has been recognized by the majority of Southeast Asian consumers, which is the key reason why the little Fuwa car can eat in Southeast Asia.

Nothing makes it easier to open up a market than consumer recognition.

"I have no problem with slowing down the movement in the Southeast Asian market, but the question is, you have to give me a precise time to slow down so that I can make a targeted arrangement. Xu Weidong replied.

"It's August this year. Zhou Jingming calculated carefully, and then replied, "The production bases in Yanjing and Yangcheng will be completed by the end of August at the latest, and then they will be put into use normally in September, and the annual output of Xiaofuwa cars will rise to 350,000 units, which can be deployed in the Southeast Asian market on a large scale." Then the production base in Chuncheng can also be put into use before November, that is to say, before the end of this year, our company can form an annual output of 500,000 small Fuwa cars. ”

"August, right...... Okay, then I'll take August as the time node to arrange things in Southeast Asia, and the next two months or so, I will be a transitional stage. Hearing this, Xu Weidong nodded and said.

"Toyota, is there any new trend in Southeast Asia recently?" Speaking of the Southeast Asian market, Zhou Jingming couldn't help but ask about this. His information about the Southeast Asian market is still at the stage of three months ago.

"In terms of sales, it is still the same few tricks, and there are no new methods...... Oh yes, but there have been rumors in the Southeast Asian market recently that Toyota is preparing to build a production base in Southeast Asia, and it will be built in Thailand, and it seems that it has been in contact with the Thai government. Xu Weidong thought of this and hurriedly said to Zhou Jingming.

"Build a factory?" Zhou Jingming smiled, "Then let him build it." ”

"Jingming, once Toyota can build a production base in Thailand, it will inevitably pose a huge threat to our market position there, and the cost of related Toyota's models will inevitably decrease, do we really not consider building a factory there?" Xu Weidong asked worriedly.

Toyota's intention to build a factory in Thailand this time is very obvious, and Zhou Jingming should not be able to see it, but why does it still look indifferent?

"In the Southeast Asian market, we are not in a hurry to build factories, as long as the 500,000 plan is fully implemented, the domestic output is enough to meet the consumption demand there. As for when we will be able to build a production base in Southeast Asia, I will make arrangements. Zhou Jingming shook his head and said with a smile.

Since Xiaofuwa sedan became popular in Thailand, several local governments in Thailand have also been contacting Tianming Automobile Company and inviting Tianming Company to invest in the local factory, but Zhou Jingming has not nodded and agreed, so this matter has been delayed until now.

The fact that domestic production can meet the needs of both markets is one factor, but more importantly, Zhou Jingming, as a reborn, has inside information that these people do not know now, that is, the currency crisis that broke out in Southeast Asia in 1997.

This currency crisis, starting from Thailand, has spread to Singapore and other other Southeast Asian countries, even South Korea and China's Hong Kong and mainland China, have been greatly impacted, causing devastating harm to the real economy, especially Thailand, is the first to bear the brunt of this currency crisis, if you choose to invest in Thailand at this time, it is tantamount to digging your own grave.

If Toyota is really negotiating with the Thai government to invest in the construction of a factory, even if construction starts next year, it will not be put into use until at least 1996, and in less than a year, the Southeast Asian currency crisis will break out, and Zhou Jingming will not be stupid enough to invest and build a factory in Southeast Asia at this time.

Now Tianming company only uses the Southeast Asian market as a sales base, once the currency crisis breaks out, Tianming company can also withdraw from the Southeast Asian market at any time, and it will not cause great economic losses.

Of course, it is impossible for Xu Weidong to know these things, and it is impossible for Toyota to know, and Zhou Jingming will naturally not tell them, because even if he does, Xu Weidong will not believe it, after all, the outbreak of the currency crisis in Southeast Asia is still nearly four years away, if Zhou Jingming really makes such a prediction, I am afraid that he can be directly nominated for the Nobel Prize in Economics.

If Zhou Jingming is not a reborn, he will definitely not give up the opportunity to invest and build factories in Southeast Asia in his previous life, and it will inevitably cause great losses at that time.

And now, because of the two lives, Zhou Jingming can completely avoid this unnecessary loss, maybe this is the legendary "protagonist halo".
