Chapter 378: Unexpected

Deng Xiaoni is very efficient, and she gave the data to Zhang Xiaofan before getting off work.

"Mr. Zhang, some of these data are only estimates. ”

"It's good to be able to estimate 80%, but this kind of thing can only be estimated, and we don't have exact data. ”

Zhang Xiaofan closed the information, and then looked at Deng Xiaoni with both eyes, which means that it is obvious, I am too lazy to look at it, you can talk about it.

"Mr. Zhang, I have counted that the production of private cars in our country last year was about 4.8 million units, and this year I estimate that the production of private cars should exceed 5.5 million units. ”

"Why do you only count private cars?"

"I've researched that what we're developing now is only transparent wheel paints, but it seems that the paints used in other car wheels except for private cars are very ordinary, so they probably don't use clear paints. ”

Zhang Xiaofan gave a thumbs up in his heart, once a person does not drill the tip of the horns, the whole ability will be improved a lot.

"So I only count private cars, so if this number is calculated, the total number of wheels we need after a year is about 22 million, plus the wheels replaced after the sale, about 25 million.

Follow the data given to me by the technical department, one kilogram of our paint, but you can also spray about 15 wheels, then the entire hub transparent paint market.

The approximate figure should be 1,700 tons upwards. ”

An industry, the whole country only uses about 1,700 tons of paint, which is a very small industry, but don't underestimate this industry.

The less the industry, the higher the profit.

Take this kind of wheel transparent coating as an example, if you can meet EU standards in product quality.

The price should be around $80 and then the cost will be less than $40.

The profit will be very scary, more than 200% profit, but the requirements for this coating will be very high.

Salt spray resistance, acid and alkali resistance, scratch resistance, adhesion resistance.

Performance is going to be top in every aspect.

"But Mr. Zhang, I just contacted a person in the industry, and I found that the current wheel coating industry, the mainstream is still paint.

It is the transparent wheel coating we are developing now, and many wheel companies still use oil-based coatings. ”

Zhang Xiaofan has been prepared for this point, and the advantages of oil-based coatings are really obvious compared to powder coatings.

In addition to its environmental performance, some other properties are basically better than or parallel to powder coatings.

Of course, the lack of development of powder coating technology is also one of the reasons, but in fact, it is more that oil-based paint spraying is too convenient.

"Isn't there a hub company around Yuezhou, which is also ranked first in the country, you go to contact it.

When the time comes, I want to see if I can match up with their senior leaders to see if I can meet and talk. ”

The next day, Deng Xiaoni sent back the news.

On the way, Deng Xiaoni seemed to be a little worried.

"Mr. Zhang, is it too early for us to intervene in this wheel industry, yesterday I collected so much information, and found that almost 95% of the wheel companies, all of them use oil-based coatings, and about 4% of the wheel companies, using water-based coatings.

Less than 1% of wheel companies use powder coatings, and they have very low requirements. ”

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned, no, oil to powder is indeed an important part of the road to environmental protection.

Although this important aspect did not start to improve in the automotive industry, it is not the wheel industry today, and less than 1% of companies use powder coatings.

If this is really the case, it is indeed a troublesome thing, and the production process of a manufacturer is often more mature after many years of exploration.

Suddenly, it is indeed a little difficult for them to change the production process.

Therefore, the oil to powder has been said for a few years, and it has been promoted for a few years, but it is still in a half-dead state.

"Let's see if it's feasible when we meet, and I need to know the specific situation of this industry through their boss.

The information you collect is actually more superficial. ”

Zhang Xiaofan closed his eyes and recuperated, he had to think about it.

In fact, there is very little information about the wheel industry in his memory, but Zhang Xiaofan is bent on entering the automotive industry.

To enter an industry, there must be an entry point, and the hub industry is the best entry point.

As for car topcoats, at present, you don't have to think about it, even if your technology meets the requirements, others may not necessarily use it.

Because at present, the state does not have very mandatory requirements for VOC emissions.

So this has led to a lot of companies being reluctant to use solid powder coatings.

Any company is unusually careful about changes to industrial production processes.

Using something new means that you are taking a big risk and getting something with unknown results.

"I'm still in a hurry"

Zhang Xiaofan muttered, at present, for the whole country, Zhang Xiaofan has laid out 2/3 of the layout of ordinary coatings.

There are still 2 to 3 branches to be opened this year, and the two branches opened last year have all been put into production.

At present, the effect is not bad, the technical strength is there, although the price is more expensive, but with the sales staff's three-inch tongue, plus the product quality is indeed very good, so the market of each branch is relatively prosperous.

The general coating market can now at least rank among the top 10 in the powder coating industry in the country.

The total output of several companies is about 20,000 tons a year.

According to the current net profit per ton of products of Zhimei New Materials, 8,000 to 10,000 yuan.

Of course, there are more profitable projects, but on average they will not be less than 10,000 yuan per tonne.

Now we must complete the national layout as soon as possible, and there is a branch in the northeast and north of China, although there is already a branch in North China, but at present he is almost saturated with production capacity.

There is probably one in the southwest and one in central China.

Zhang Xiaofan was thinking about some things in a mess, the layout of the company for a while, the oil to powder for a while, the automobile industry and the wheel industry.

Unconsciously came to the destination this time, Fangnan Wheel Hub Co., Ltd.

This company does not occupy a very large area, and the products in the wheel industry are small in size and high in profits.

So in fact, many people have not had a very large company, and the area here is estimated to be less than 150 acres, but this wheel company is one of the top three in the country.

It's hard to imagine that such a small company basically accounts for 16% of the country's wheel sales.

Since there was already an appointment, the two of them went straight to the office of their company boss. Read the latest chapters, stay tuned
