Chapter 820: Component Strategy

Jiang Hui didn't think that all the parts of Guanghui Auto would be made by himself, but he didn't want his "seven inches" either.

For example, in areas such as automobile rims, automobile tires, automotive glass and other domestic suppliers that are also doing well, it is of little significance for Guanghui Automobile to invest heavily in the development of its own technology.

For example, Dicastal has made a certain reputation in the industry for car rims, and ten years later, it can become the industry leader of global aluminum wheels, and Guanghui Automobile can buy it from them.

In terms of tires, although the performance of domestic brands in terms of fuel saving and wear resistance is slightly worse, as a very mature part, there are many manufacturers that can do it in the world.

Not to mention glass, Fuyao Glass is a relatively competitive independent brand among domestic auto parts, and even Mercedes-Benz and BMW are also using them.

However, parts such as body control and stability systems, EU, steering gear, seat belts, airbags, seats, headlights, wiring harnesses, sensors and other parts are necessary to appropriately intervene or support some manufacturers to reduce supply risks.

Those who are not of my race will have different hearts!

This is true in many times, in many occasions, and in many fields.

Although it is now the era of globalization, like some European and American suppliers, they have mastered the core technology.

I don't think there are many OEMs who want to have a bunch of such manufacturers in their system.

"Mr. Jiang, in this regard, we have discussed with Mr. Guan and Mr. Kato, in addition to supporting Guangdu Electronics and Hagiwara and other group-owned enterprises to become bigger and stronger, we are also considering the acquisition of some parts companies to develop the state of Guanghui Automobile's own parts technology, in addition, we have also selected a number of outstanding domestic private enterprises as our strategic partners to support and cooperate in terms of funds and orders", after hearing Jiang Hui's consideration of photometric electronics, Pi Wei also explained the current situation.

"Well, go back and register a company, specializing in auto parts, it's called Guanghui Auto Parts Co., Ltd., which belongs to Guanghui Automobile, and then we will put Photometric Electronics, Hagiwara and some parts companies acquired in the future under this newly established company, I hope this company can become a comprehensive parts company like Magna in the future," Jiang Hui said.

For Jiang Hui, although he was not a professional in the automotive industry in his previous life, he was a student of the School of Mechanical and Vehicle Engineering of Imperial Capital University of Technology, which is the same major as vehicle engineering.

For example, a parts giant like Magna, although it does not operate a car brand, its technical level is really not worse than that of ordinary automobile companies, and the scale of the company is not small.

Magna's product capabilities include interior systems, seating systems, latching systems, metal body and chassis systems, mirror systems, exterior systems, roof systems, electronic systems, powertrain systems design, engineering development, testing and manufacturing, and vehicle design and assembly.

Almost all the major parts used in automobiles, they are produced, except for professional tires and window glass, Magna does not have a separate production, almost all the products on the car Magna can provide.

It is a fighter jet in a parts company!

"Okay, Guanghui Automobile really needs a subsidiary dedicated to the research and development of parts and components technology to support its own development, always relying on others, and being constrained too much", Pi Wei also said with a little emotion.

"Our purchasing department must also have a clear parts strategy, each part, how to consider the future supply system and share distribution, to plan in advance, don't run into anything is nothing, no idea at all."

Compared with a 100,000-capacity automobile company and a 100-capacity company, the parts supply system must be different, and compared with 10 million, it is even more different.

At the time of 100,000 units, it is enough to have two suppliers for each part, and even some parts are not too much of a problem to be done by one.

But when this number becomes millions, if there are still only one or two suppliers for each part, then the car company is too "tyrant", and it is completely a blood transfusion to support suppliers.

There is no such stupid car company in this world.

As we all know, when buying Dingxi, the more full the competition, the lower the price is likely to be.

If it's an exclusive monopoly, hehe, then people will say how much money they want.

The most obvious is the automatic transmission.

Over the years, there are basically no automatic transmission companies in the Celestial Empire, and the core technology is in the hands of a few foreign-funded enterprises such as Aisin Seiki, JATCO, and ZF, and people are willing to sell you as much as you want.

The point is, sometimes even if you have money, people don't want to sell it.

In his previous life, Jiang Hui had heard such a story, an automobile group's own brand developed a very good medium and large seven-seater SUV, and the market sales were booming.

And the gearbox of this SUV is to purchase self-love Seiki, but because this popular SUV model threatens the sales of Toyota Highlander, it even steals the position of the leader in the sales list.

At this time, hehe, people began to make moves.

"Excuse me, because 。。。。。。 The reason is that we do not have enough gearbox production capacity, and we will only be able to supply 5,000 units per month from next month."

At the critical moment, people would rather not earn money for this gearbox, but also get stuck in your neck so that you don't threaten my model.

Because Aisin Seiki is a subsidiary of Toyota.

Therefore, the core technology still has to rely on itself, and Jiang Hui has a full understanding of this.

"I understand, we are already planning the parts supply system according to the production capacity of 500,000. It's just that our cars haven't been mass-produced yet, and the suppliers we are currently approaching are not comprehensive enough, and some ideas need to be judged in combination with the follow-up situation," Pi Wei said.

"You can go back and discuss with Guan Weidong again to see which technologies we urgently need and can find suitable opportunities to buy them in the international market, and take advantage of the turmoil in the international market in the past two years to buy them back quickly," Jiang Hui said.

2008 was the worst era, but for Jiang Hui, it was the best era.

Whether Guanghui Automobile's parts strategy can be fully realized, in addition to the continuous investment in the future, the most important thing is to see what kind of foundation can be laid this year.
