Chapter 566: A Billion Dollars Is Not a Problem!

Seeing the third-generation Volga 24 car outside the factory, Director Mikhail gave a detailed explanation.

Li Jundu wanted to test drive one.

Today's task is not a test drive, though.

After going through the process and evaluating it, he will definitely take it for a test drive.

You must know that the third generation of AvtoVAZ cars is the pride of the Soviet people, but unfortunately the development was successful, but the Soviet Union collapsed, Eastern Europe is a great change, and China's reform and opening up introduced more Western cars, resulting in the best Volga cars in the former Soviet Union becoming uncared for.

Speaking of which, this third-generation Volga car is quite tragic.

It's like an ancient patriotic knight, who practiced martial arts in the deep mountains to serve the country, and after training, the country is gone, who is that martial arts?

Then they took a tour of the production hall.

Mikhail, the director of the factory, and the company's senior management accompanied Li Jun to learn more about it.

As the starting point of the entire automobile production line, everyone came to the stamping workshop.

The stamping workshop is mainly responsible for the production of various voltaiga automobile self-made stamping parts.

These machines are all machine tools that are completely ahead of Huaxia technology.

"These devices were put into operation in 1990 to specialize in the production of third-generation Volga cars......"

The stamped parts go into the body shop.

Densely packed with parts.

The dense and long corridors are full of endless feelings.

A car is composed of many small parts, and finally can be assembled into a car, each part should meet the corresponding specifications, only each device is qualified to ensure the quality of the car.

The welding workshop is full of sparks, and it is the skilled workers trained in the former Soviet era who are seriously welding.

Harsh light, pungent smell.

"Boss, you need to bring protective eye patches and earplugs, otherwise it will irritate your eyes and eardrums. ”

……

The welded car goes to the paint shop.

The painting workshop is to paint the car, usually the painting is very simple, but the car painting is not so simple, it is not only as simple as painting, but also on the roof, seats and other places to paint a foam-like material, which step is called foaming, mainly used for heat preservation and heat insulation.

After the paint is finished, it should enter the drying room, water swirl spray paint room, scraping ash, etc.

After the successful painting, the parts enter the final assembly workshop, and the steering wheel, seats, engine, etc. need to be installed.

Then I saw a car being built in front of me.

Walked around the raw material workshop, production workshop, and automobile warehouse of the Gorky Automobile Plant.

Li Jun deeply felt the strength of the heavy industry of the Soviet Union in the past.

This plant is ten times the size of the KAMAZ plant.

Moreover, there are more than 20 such branches of the Gorky Automobile Plant in Russia.

Such a large scale.

I vaguely saw that it was sold in Eastern Europe, China, and Southeast Asia.

The manufacturing equipment in more than 20 automobile factories alone is an unimaginable asset.

And the most important thing for manufacturing companies is these equipment and technologies.

After the visit, Mikhail said sincerely: "Boss, we privatize the Gorky Automobile Plant to you, and hope that you will be reborn in your hands." ”

Li Jun finished visiting.

Then I heard the words of Mikhail's director of the Gorky Automobile Plant, and I felt infinite emotion and sighed that I had no intention of taking over these Russian industries for a long time.

AvtoVAZ cars in the future can no longer reproduce the glory of the Soviet era.

He knows it better than anyone else.

This automobile factory, which was once the representative of Russia's heavy industry, is now in an embarrassing situation and has become a company in the hands of private bosses, with annual sales in Russia and only 40,000 or 50,000 units per month.

No matter who it is, it will not reach the point where the Soviet Union will be able to support it with the strength of the whole country, and it will be difficult to revive the former glory of the Volga in the future.

This is known not only to Li Jun, but also to Mikhail, the director of the Gorky Automobile Plant.

However, the director of the Mikhail plant decided to do his duty, in the past the Gorky company was a state-owned enterprise, and he worked for the Soviet Union, but now although he has changed to a private person, he is still conscientious for the Volga car.

The efforts of the original Volga engineers could not be dissipated because of the collapse of the Soviet Union.

In Li Jun's eyes.

Although the AvtoVAZ car has long since lost its former glory, it is definitely the best asset in Russia today.

Where is that brand, the Russians will pay for it.

For the automotive industry, there are only two areas that most consumers are concerned about, one is safety, and the other is the brand.

Consumers who don't know much about cars, for a 500,000 BMW and a 500,000 Volkswagen, in terms of cost performance, a 500,000 BMW is definitely not as delicate as a 500,000 Volkswagen. But consumers have this 500,000, they will definitely choose 500,000 BMW instead of Volkswagen, the BMW brand has its own attributes, so that consumers pay.

BMW's brand has its own attributes, so that people who make cars must be enthusiastic about it.

Russian car companies, in particular, are certainly willing to pay a lot of money for them.

Volga is not only in Russia, Eastern Europe, its predecessor is a representative of the Soviet heavy industry, in terms of strength has quite rich resources, is a lot of help for the acquirer.

This help is not only in terms of reputation, but also in terms of technology, and the AvtoVAZ Automobile Plant is a state enterprise that was originally planned by the whole country.

For acquisitions.

This is what Li Shufu, a later Chinese automobile madman, did.

Later, with the rapid development of China's manufacturing industry, the automobile field has gradually become made in China, and Geely Holdings, a subsidiary of automobile madman Li Shufu, completed the acquisition of all shares of Volvo Car Company.

Later, Geely's acquisition of Volvo was quite successful, not only increasing the sales of Volvo cars a lot, but also making Geely cars a powerful tool for domestic automobiles.

The acquisition of Volvo is just Li Shufu's practice, and the acquisition of Taili, the largest flying car company in the United States, is also a drizzle, and Geely spent 9 billion US dollars and 50 billion yuan to buy 9% of Mercedes-Benz's shares and become a major shareholder of Mercedes-Benz.

Geely's acquisition of foreign automobile brand companies and the implementation of the "mastery of Yi's long-term skills to control Geely" have enabled Geely Automobile to continue to grow, with annual sales of one million vehicles and two million vehicles.

After the company's development reaches a certain level, it expands horizontally and absorbs high-quality assets in the same field of the industry, so this AvtoVA automobile factory is now in trouble, but Li Jun is not worried that it will not be able to sell at a good price.

"AvtoVAZ has 20 branches in Russia, which has a record of producing up to 10,000 units per working day, and has 1,000 sales stores in large and medium-sized cities in Russia, as well as providing car-related services. ”

……

Li Jun's relevant financial and asset appraisers evaluated the AvtoVAZ car, the AvtoVAZ brand is worth 2.8 billion US dollars, and he is selling it at a discount of 200 percent, and there are 600 million of the most, and it is estimated that the auction will not be a problem to 1 billion.
