Chapter 0386 Common Prosperity

With the expansion of the business scope of Tianming Automobile Company, it is urgent to set up a special sales company to be responsible for the company's vehicle sales business.

Looking at domestic automobile manufacturers, whether it is a state-owned company such as FAW and SAIC, or a private enterprise such as Tianming Automobile Company, there is no special sales company responsible for this part of the business, and the sales department is generally affiliated with the vehicle factory.

At the beginning of the establishment of Tianming Company, it was also managed in this way, and Zhao Ke had always been concurrently managing the sales business, but at that time, because it only involved the domestic sales business, the management by the vehicle manufacturer was enough to meet the needs of management.

But now, Zhou Jingming has expanded the company's business scope to the European and American markets, especially after the release of the Kirin car, the company's share in the domestic and foreign markets will be more and more, and the establishment of a special sales company is also beneficial to the adjustment and management of the company's business.

In foreign countries, car companies like Volkswagen and General Motors have their own sales companies, and Zhou Jingming also asked Zhao Ke to prepare for the establishment of a sales company for the sake of the company's development.

"The preparations for the sales company are ready, and I don't have the right person to manage the newly established department. Zhao Ke replied.

"It's really a problem, it's hard to find technical talent, and it's actually even harder to find people who are familiar with sales. Zhou Jingming frowned, "In a few days, Runzhou Institute of Technology will soon enter the graduation season, and when the time comes, senior brother, you go there to do some school recruitment, and Teacher Su has already helped us make a good relationship." ”

Regarding the pilot school recruitment of Runzhou Institute of Technology, Su Wangting has communicated with the principal of the school, and Runzhou Institute of Technology will not interfere with Zhou Jingming and their school recruitment in principle, as long as the students are willing to join Tianming Automobile Company, the school will let them go.

"School recruitment is school recruitment, and you can't let a recent college graduate manage a sales company. Zhao Ke said with a wry smile.

"This matter is not in a hurry, there is still some time before the establishment of the sales company, and I will ponder the candidate for this supervisor. Zhou Jingming waved his hand and signaled Zhao Ke not to worry.

After discussing the sales company, Zhou Jingming communicated with Zhao Ke about the arrangement of the OEM's production plan for this year.

At present, the vehicle manufacturer for the Phoenix brand car and Kirin car, the use of mixed assembly method, the two cars because of the similar chassis, a lot of common parts, so share a production assembly line, and after technical transformation, the current production capacity of the vehicle factory has exceeded 50,000 units, reaching the level of nearly 80,000 units.

The production capacity of 80,000 vehicles should be reasonably distributed in the Phoenix brand car and Kirin car, and the distribution of these two cars in the domestic and foreign markets should also be carefully considered.

After arranging the things of the vehicle factory, Zhou Jingming took the time to come to the automotive electronics branch, at present, Tianming Automobile's business is mainly distributed in the engine, transmission axle, vehicle and automotive electronics that has just been established not long ago, compared with the first three, the industrial scale of automotive electronics is much smaller, and the current mass production is only airbags.

Because domestic safety regulations have required all passenger cars to be equipped with airbags, and Zhou Jingming currently has no time to take care of the expansion of automotive electronics, so Zhou Jingming has taken out the patent of the airbag and handed it over to the state for free use, so the airbags produced by the automotive electronics factory at this stage are mainly self-sufficient.

Of course, Zhou Jingming's requirements for automotive electronics, will not be limited to the small piece of airbags, compared with the traditional field of auto parts, the market size of automotive electronics is at least 100 billion, the profit margin is very large, Bosch is the best example, Zhou Jingming will not let such a good market, let foreign companies compete and sit idly by.

In the automotive electronics market, it's time for a disruptor to emerge.

So at present, automotive electronics, is developing its own ABS system, and strive to achieve all the localization of ABS system before the end of this year, of course, in addition to ABS system, Zhou Jingming has more ideas for the planning of automotive electronics, and after being busy with the first gear of the Kirin car, Zhou Jingming will shift the focus of work to the development of automotive electronics.

In the afternoon, Zhou Jingming came to the laboratory where the Tianming team is located, in the laboratory, the team's technicians are modifying two Kirin cars, participating in the 24 hours of Le Mans rally is not the same as the WRC, the requirements for vehicle modification are higher, and if you want to achieve a good result in this event, the team needs to recalibrate the performance of the vehicle.

"This year's 24 Hours of Le Mans, we have successfully registered, I haven't finished dealing with domestic matters, when the time comes, you and the team go to Le Mans first, and I will arrive later. After finding Jonathan, Zhou Jingming commanded.

There is only one driver capable of such a heavyweight race, and the Tianming team is currently the only one Jonathan.

"Knowing the boss, the car will be modified in three days, and we will go to France next week after all the tests have been done here. Jonathan nodded.

Jonathan had to suspend the rest of the year's WRC rally in order to participate in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, but thanks to the very good results in the previous WRC Rally, Jonathan is now back at the top and is now recognized as a seeded player.

"It's the first time you've participated in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, right?" Zhou Jingming smiled and continued.

"Hmm. Jonathan nodded, "But the rules of the game are similar to those of the WRC, and I have already learned about them." ”

"You don't have to be nervous, it's the first time you participate, and you can play your level. Zhou Jingming patted Jonathan's shoulder and smiled and said with relief.

After staying in Shencheng for another day, Zhou Jingming took a car to Chuncheng, and there was one thing he wanted to discuss with Chen Dongsheng of FAW.

The two haven't seen each other for a long time, and this time they met, it was naturally another greeting.

"Director Chen, I came to you this time because I wanted to discuss something important with you. After the greetings, Zhou Jingming got to the point.

"Tell me what's going on. Chen Dongsheng responded with a smile, Zhou Jingming came all the way from Shencheng to here, and he must have something to say.

"Director Chen also knows that at present, our Tianming Automobile Company has opened up the situation in the European and American markets, Phoenix brand cars are very popular in Europe and the United States, and we just released the Kirin car a few days ago, and we are also preparing to be officially sold in the European and American markets next month.

Zhou Jingming smiled, looked at Chen Dongsheng and said.

Tianming Automobile Company is already the one who "got rich first" in the European and American markets, and next, he also wants to take the rest of the car companies to achieve "common prosperity".
