Zhou Jingming put forward such an idea, which was made after comprehensively considering the development status of the domestic machinery industry. Compared with the automobile industry, the domestic agricultural machinery industry has developed greatly, whether it is supporting facilities, or research and development capabilities, it is much ahead of the automobile industry.

Even in the distant 21st century, in the context of the decline of domestic cars and low international competitiveness, China's agricultural machinery still has a high reputation and competitiveness in the international market.

As a large agricultural country in China, with a large rural population, if the time is pushed forward for more than ten years, agricultural machinery is the focus of the development of China's heavy industry, which can be seen from the development history of major universities. Runzhou Institute of Technology, where Zhou Jingming graduated, has an Agricultural Machinery College, and the majors under the college are also mainly agricultural machinery.

Even the predecessor of Jilin University (formerly Jilin University of Technology), which is among the best in the country in vehicle engineering, also started from Changchun Agricultural Machinery College.

This also explains why the research and development capabilities of agricultural machinery systems are much stronger than those of automotive systems at this stage, and there are historical reasons for this.

Ma Tianning frowned slightly, "Surrender the localization of Santana to the agricultural machinery system?"

Zhou Jingming nodded, "That's right." Agricultural machinery system at this stage of the R & D capabilities and industrial layout are very mature, and the principle of agricultural machinery and automobiles is the same, whether it is the engine or gearbox, can be evolved from the components of agricultural machinery, if the localization of the mulberry car task to the agricultural machinery system, with the current industrial level of the agricultural machinery system, will greatly shorten the cycle of localization, and at the same time can also take this opportunity to let China's agricultural machinery level, and then to a higher level, which is definitely a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. ”

However, according to what you say, if the localization of mulberry cars is handed over to the agricultural machinery system, it can shorten the localization cycle, but it is only to solve the urgent need, and the supporting parts industry of automobiles has not yet developed, in other words, such a method is only to complete the task of localization, and it is not of much help to the development of China's automobile industry. If we introduce the rest of the models later, will it be difficult to rely on the power of the agricultural machinery system?"

Lee Ming-che asked with some concern. According to Zhou Jingming, hasn't the automobile industry become a subsidiary industry of the agricultural machinery system?

Ma Tianning nodded approvingly, "Xiao Li's concern is not unreasonable, the introduction of Santana models and the establishment of cooperative relations with Volkswagen of Germany are mainly for the development of the automobile industry, not for the purpose of being a vassal of the agricultural machinery system." ”

"The problem that Director Li just said, and what I want to say next, is the shortcomings of handing over the localization task to the agricultural machinery system. Zhou Jingming said with a smile.

There are two sides to everything, and it is certainly inappropriate to leave all the localization to the agricultural machinery system, and Lee Ming-che's concern is not unreasonable.

"Then what is the purpose of the two paths you just mentioned?" asked Li Mingzhe puzzled.

"Could it be that Xiao Zhou, do you want to combine the two paths you just said and try at the same time?" Ma Tianning seemed to understand Zhou Jingming's intentions.

"That's right. Zhou Jingming nodded and said, "Just now I just analyzed the two paths of localization to the two leaders, and as for the specific operation in the later stage, you can combine the two roads as Minister Ma said." It is necessary not only to develop the supply chain of supporting parts for the automobile industry, but also to involve the agricultural machinery system in the localization process,"

In return, the agricultural machinery system can also be supported by the localization special fund to digest and absorb relevant technologies from the localization process to improve the industrial level of agricultural machinery. ”

Zhou Jingming said all his thoughts in one breath. The technical gold content of the automobile industry is much higher than that of agricultural machinery, and the agricultural machinery system only needs to learn even one-tenth of the technology from the school, which can also make the agricultural machinery industry level to a higher level.

"Xiao Li, what do you think?" Ma Tianning did not rush to make a statement, but looked at Li Mingzhe.

As the director of the Department of Industrial Policy, Lee Ming-che should have made decisions on industrial planning and development.

"I think Xiao Zhou's statement is feasible, the industrial development status of the agricultural machinery system is indeed much better than the automobile industry, if there is a brother unit of the agricultural machinery system to help, the localization process of Santana will definitely be much smoother. Lee Ming-che replied earnestly.

Ma Tianning's brows furrowed deeper, and the wrinkles on his face were also squeezed together, obviously, he was still thinking about it, if the localization work was divided into the agricultural machinery system, the interests involved in it would be very large, and Ma Tianning could not be allowed not to weigh it well.

"In this way, if Xiao Zhou is not in a hurry to go back, you can sort out the plan you just proposed and form a formal document and hand it over to me. After a long time, Ma Tianning spoke.

"I can stay here for now, and if there is a suitable venue, I can hand over the materials to you tomorrow Minister Ma." Zhou Jingming replied.

"Okay, then you will live in the guest house of the ministry for the time being, and I will let someone arrange it in a while, in addition," Ma Tianning looked at Li Mingzhe again, "Xiao Li, you take the time to meet with Lao Hong of the Equipment Industry Department and talk to him about this matter, it is best to invite all the relevant personnel of the agricultural machinery system to discuss it together, and draw up a plan for me, and I will promote the work of the ministry and the economic commission." ”

Anyway, there is still a long time before the localization of the Santana model, and Ma Tianning feels that he has enough time to promote this matter.

"Okay, I'll do the work on the farm machinery system, and I'll give a proposal as soon as possible. Li Mingzhe nodded hurriedly.

"Okay, let's put the localization matter aside for a while, there is still a period of time before lunch, Xiao Li, you go to the Economic Commission with me, let's finalize the sales rights and the cooperation with Bosch first." With that, Ma Tianning stood up.

After getting up, Ma Tianning looked at Zhou Jingming again and said, "Xiao Zhou, you can come along." I guess it's up to you to explain it in detail. ”

"Okay, Minister Ma. Zhou Jingming nodded.

Although the Economic Commission and the Ministry of Machinery belong to the same national ministries and commissions, the offices of the two institutions are not in the same place, the Ministry of Machinery is located on West Chang'an Avenue, and the office of the Economic Commission is located on East Chang'an Avenue, about three kilometers away.

After the three of them went downstairs, they took Ma Tianning's special car to the office of the Economic Commission. The car is still an Audi 100, the same as Lee Ming-che's original car.

About 10 minutes later, the car stopped in the parking lot of the Economic Commission.

"Let's go, just go to Director Li. Ma Tianning said while looking at Li Mingzhe meaningfully.
