Chapter 658: The reaction of the island car companies

With the development of modern construction technology, factory construction is becoming easier and easier.

The modular design and the extensive use of steel frames have greatly accelerated the construction speed of the plant.

In the past, it often took about three years to build an automobile factory, and even longer if you include the upfront planning.

Now, if you want to do it quickly, it's not an exaggeration to do it in two years, and even if you plan well in advance, it's not too scary to complete it in a year and a half.

Provided, of course, that funds are abundant.

However, with the development of the Celestial Empire to the present, the price of land has begun to rise significantly, although compared with the price of later generations, it is still the price of cabbage.

However, it is still significantly higher than in previous years, which has led to more and more land-related disputes.

The most obvious is demolition and land acquisition.

Originally, at the beginning of this year, Jiang Hui hoped to complete the work in the first half of this year.

However, considering that the company is engaged in demolition by itself, it is too much toss, and it is easy to cause a commotion.

Therefore, after the initial selection of Wuyang City as the production base of Guanghui Automobile, Guanghui Automobile and several districts in the city are discussing the work of land acquisition.

For this reason, Pi Wei, the deputy general manager in charge of the construction of the Guanghui Automobile plant project, has basically stayed in Wuyang for the past six months, and has not even come back to participate in the recent model evaluation meeting.

Of course, there are also models that do not belong to him.

Up to now, the 5,000 acres of land that Guanghui Automobile wants have all completed the demolition and land acquisition work.

Demolition and relocation are difficult, but when demolition is related to the political achievements of the leadership, no matter how difficult it is, it can be done.

The construction of a factory with a production capacity of 500,000 is enough to attract the attention of leaders at all levels.

If you don't pay attention to this kind of project, some other provinces and cities are willing to help you pay attention to it.

"Mr. Jiang, Wuyang hopes that we will hold a signing and groundbreaking ceremony next week, and it seems that the leaders of the province will also attend", Pi Wei specially returned to the imperial capital from Wuyang to report on the construction of the Guanghui Automobile Factory.

In order to win the investment of Guanghui Automobile, Wuyang City has also made great efforts.

Although the current land is not as tight as that of later generations, it takes a lot of courage to acquire 5,000 acres of land for Guanghui Automobile at one time.

In fact, the site selection of the factory was basically decided in April, and the rest was to wait for the local government to help with the land acquisition and demolition.

Fortunately, that land is mainly farmland, and there are only a handful of buildings on it, so this month, it is finally all completed, and it is waiting for Guanghui Automobile to officially settle in.

"A barren land, what kind of groundbreaking ceremony is carried out now, there is nothing to look at", Jiang Hui is now less and less interested in this kind of ceremony that has no practical significance.

"That's true for us, but for Wuyangshi, they don't think so. Our project is the largest new investment project in 2007, and it is also a very important achievement," said Pi Wei.

If a planned 500,000 automobile project can really achieve this production and sales figure, then the number of jobs it attracts, the tax revenue and GDP growth brought by it are very considerable.

Generally speaking, a car company with 500,000 employees, not counting R&D personnel, also needs about 10,000 employees, which is only the employees of the automobile company itself.

If you count the associated parts companies and 4S stores, this number can be added by about one zero.

Although Wuyang City is a first-tier city with many employment opportunities, there are still very few enterprises that can bring tens of thousands of new high-quality jobs at one time, and it can even be said that there is not one in a few years.

Not to mention, after the completion of this project, it can directly bring tens of billions, indirectly bring hundreds of billions of GDP growth, and tens of billions of annual taxes.

This is why the local governments in later generations are very fond of and welcome automobile companies to build factories in their jurisdictions, and the automotive industry has brought too many benefits to the region.

"Since they want to do it, let's do it", Jiang Hui felt that this kind of thing that has nothing to do with selectivity, since Wuyang wants to do it, although he has no interest, he still follows the meaning of Wuyang City to do it.

"Well, then I'll contact the city office later, finalize the specific time, and then I'll make an appointment with Secretary Liao about your time", Pi Wei was relieved to see that Jiang Hui finally agreed.

Otherwise, he would have a headache in the middle.

……

Just after Pi Wei contacted Wuyang City, the other party finalized the specific schedule on the same day. It is estimated that in fact, people have already set up a long time ago, but they are just putting up a shelf in terms of form.

Otherwise, if you want to coordinate the attendance of so many leaders, you will only set the schedule five days in advance, and there will definitely be many leaders who will not be able to spare time.

Sometimes, it's really not casual to say everything, the small meetings of the conference, and the leaders' schedules are full.

Just after the signing and groundbreaking ceremony were finalized by both sides, Wuyang City released the news to the outside world and began to make specific arrangements for the content of the ceremony, and Guanghui Automobile followed suit.

Of course, Guanghui Automobile also announced this information on its official Weibo.

In response to this news without much content, the reaction of netizens is actually not big, after all, Guanghui Automobile has neither announced the pictures of the model, nor announced the amount of investment, and there is not much information that can attract netizens.

On the contrary, however, the response from the automotive industry has been much more enthusiastic.

The first to pop up to comment are Nissan, Honda and Toyota, which have joint ventures that are also located in Wuyang.

Nissan's official Weibo: The radical investment strategy is no longer suitable for the current era, and companies that have never done cars actually want to invest in the construction of factories with a capacity of 500,000 at once, which can only be said that the ignorant are fearless.

Honda's official Weibo: Adhering to the rolling development model, small input and large output, this has always been Honda's development principle in the Celestial Empire. Since the first model, the Accord, was launched in the Celestial Empire in 1998, after ten years, it has now reached half a million. The arrival of 500,000 is the result of ten years of hard work, and the development of the automobile industry is not achieved overnight!

Toyota's official Weibo: In the Internet industry, there may be all kinds of skyrocketing, but in the real industry, you still need to be down-to-earth step by step, and be careful that the steps are too big and what you have to do.

The Celestial Empire automobile market is large, but the development is uneven, as far as 2007 is concerned, East China and South China are the two largest regions.

And South China is the base camp of the Japanese system, and Guanghui Automobile suddenly rushed into the base camp of others, and it is no wonder that those car companies in the island countries collectively jumped out and shouted.

This is equivalent to Guanghui Automobile knocking on the door, or a factory with a one-time investment of 500,000 production capacity.

None of the three car companies in the island country has reached 500,000 in Wuyang.
