Chapter 1192: Something Hasn't Changed!
Li Fanyu hadn't thought about the ambulance at all before.
At present, the ambulance chassis brands on the market are relatively mixed, and the performance and standards are also very good;
Some high-end ones used in tertiary hospitals, such as Mercedes-Benz and Chevrolet, can easily cost five or six hundred thousand yuan for a chassis. However, many local hospitals are financially poor, such as JAC, Jiangling and Futian, and the unit price of the chassis is only within 100,000 or even 100,000.
However, although the price gap between the brands is huge, the competition pattern of ambulances in the Chinese market is also quite clear.
Because of the complex environment of the medical system, the competitiveness of the ambulance market is not reflected in the performance and pricing of the vehicles themselves.
To put it simply, a car company makes an ambulance, even if the car has excellent performance and the price is appropriate, but it may not be recognized by the market. In this market, the most important thing is the public relations ability of the car company, or the relationship with the medical system authorities.
In such an environment, China's ambulance market has essentially formed an oligopolistic competitive market. Last year, the industry leader, Brilliance Jinbei, occupied nearly 20 percent of the ambulance market. And JMC Jianghuai followed.
The top three companies all have a market share of more than 15 percent, and the top five companies account for 60 percent of the ambulance industry's total production – which is more than half of the industry's output.
The total production and sales volume of the top 10 enterprises accounts for more than 80% of the entire market!
However, the reason for the aggravation of the monopoly form in this industry is the high degree of customer concentration and the strong sense of self-protection of several leading enterprises in the industry. By maintaining a relationship with the healthcare system, there are significant barriers for new competitors to enter the industry.
This is the fundamental reason why Zhengxin does not look down on this industry.
Zhengxin Group, whether it is a production car or a special vehicle, has done a good job at present. There is no need to deal with a medical system that has always been opaque and complex in terms of interests for a segmented market with a total annual sales of tens of thousands of units.
But now Su Mang's request, Li Fanyu can't refuse.
The goal of this year's Bazaar Charity Night is to donate ambulances to more than 300 poor and remote areas. The traffic environment and basic road conditions in these areas should be bad, similar to the low-end ambulance chassis of Jinbei JAC, which can not meet the needs of first aid at all.
Don't look at these companies occupying a large market, but because of the technical constraints of these car companies themselves, they are not good at the high-end market share.
The two brands represented by Mercedes-Benz and Chevrolet have done an excellent job in data systems, transmission equipment, precision parameters, etc., so although the ambulance products of these two car companies occupy less than 5% of the total market share, they almost monopolize the vast majority of the high-end market share of the domestic ambulance market.
In such a situation, the price of their products is also extremely high. Among them, Chevrolet's RV098S ambulance chassis is considered "sub-high-end", but its quotation for domestic tertiary hospitals and Bazaar Charity is also as high as 550,000 per unit.
The cheap ones are not the top thing, and the expensive ones can't afford to use. This is the dilemma faced by Bazaar Charity under the monopoly of the domestic ambulance industry.
To be honest, Su Mang didn't expect Li Fanyu to agree so simply. After all, Zhengxin Group currently does not have a chassis that can be directly used to modify ambulances, and it needs to be newly developed.
The expenses incurred in this coming and going must not be low according to Su Mang's thoughts. So when Li Fanyu agreed, Su Mang was so happy that he didn't know how to express it.
Li Fanyu didn't take it to heart, and after agreeing with Su Mang for a charity night, he started to let the group contact Bazaar Charity, then said goodbye to him and left the small banquet hall with Zhou in a whisper.
………
"Just now, Sister Su just asked me to take her to meet you, but I didn't rush to sell Zhengxin to her to undertake such an unprofitable thing. I didn't expect her to have something. If you really help them do the ambulance thing, you won't suffer, right?"
The Oriental Building is not too far from the hotel where Li Fanyu and Zhou Qingyuding lived, and the night in the capital in early spring is very interesting, and the two of them did not take a car, so they just strolled on the street.
Looking at Li Fanyu's side face under the lantern, Zhou Qingyu suddenly raised his face and said.
Li Fanyu didn't care about Su Mang's careful thoughts, and at this time, seeing that Zhou Qingyu was a little nervous, afraid that he would suffer a loss, he couldn't help laughing.
"Silly girl, what do I have to lose. Zhengxin's R&D costs are low, and there is no secret in the industry.
I promised Su Mang to give Bazaar the cost price, but the expenses such as research and development naturally have to be included in the cost. I said I wouldn't make her money, but I wouldn't lose it either.
Besides, although it was developed for charity and to meet Bazaar's purchase this time. But when the ambulance model is mass-produced and rolled off the assembly line in the future, we can also sell it to others. The R&D cost of one or two hundred million, plus a production line that does not need to be too advanced, can be solved within 100 million.
With a few thousand units of such a model, I can recoup all the costs. ”
"That's good," Zhou Qingyu ran his fingertips through the hair around his ear, "I don't know much about your business, but when dealing with people in the entertainment industry, don't be so realistic." They all have acting skills, and if they are too real, they will suffer in this circle. ”
Hearing Zhou whisper this, Li Fanyu stopped and pinched her nose, "Then you rely on your acting skills in the circle?"
Zhou whispered and wrinkled her nose to get rid of the big hand that was weird, "Yes before, but this girl now has her own fashion brand, and she can't be regarded as purely relying on the entertainment industry to eat." So, now I don't need to act. ”
Li Fanyu smiled.
I have to admit that Zhou Qingyu is becoming more and more casual now. When I first met her, this girl was just a newcomer who crossed over from a model to the entertainment industry for her own future.
At that time, even if he was bullied by Halu, he could only secretly wipe his tears.
However, with the whispering and light luxury in recent years, her own career has become bigger and bigger, plus she has received several OSI films and Ma Rao's movies in a row, and has successfully entered Hollywood as the heroine, and her fame and status in China have also risen.
It can be said that the current Zhou Qingyu and Su Mang, the big sister in the fashion industry, or standing with a female star of Fan Ye's level, are no longer comparable in aura.
This is the change brought about by the elevation of status.
Thinking of this, Li Fanyu felt something, "Yes, in the past few years, you are really different." ”
"Some things still haven't changed."
Looking at Li Fanyu's face with emotion, Zhou whispered softly.
