In the large conference room of the Automobile Industry Bureau of the State Economic and Trade Commission, smoke fills the air. The "no smoking" sign was nailed to the wall, but the CEOs of the major state-owned automobile companies who came to attend the meeting turned a blind eye to it, and even Wu Zhaoyun, director of the automobile industry bureau, who presided over the meeting, was not exempt from vulgarity. He had a cigarette in his hand, and in front of him were the cigarettes that the leaders of various enterprises had just thrown at him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, just now I have briefed you on Director Liu's important instructions on changing the management concepts of the country's super-large enterprises and adapting them to the new competitive environment after China's accession to the WTO. According to the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, if everything goes well, China's application for WTO accession will be approved at the WTO ministerial meeting this month, and our automobile industry will undoubtedly be the industry that will be hit the hardest. Let's talk about your thoughts based on the situation of our company. Wu Zhaoyun said.

"Thoughts?" Everyone exchanged glances with each other, and they could guess what each other was thinking from their eyes. In fact, as early as before the meeting, the CEOs had already chatted a few words, and the topics they talked about were all provocations of Daqin electric vehicles. Just now, Wu Zhaoyun talked a lot about the big truths of facing the new century, the first year of the 11th Five-Year Plan, and welcoming China's accession to the WTO, but no one took these clichés to heart, and all they pondered was how to make a ruthless complaint to the Automobile Industry Bureau and let the state take action to clean up this unruly Daqin clique.

"I'll say a few words." Wang Kaihua is a senior business leader and has some appeal in the industry.

"Just now, Director Wu said that the automobile industry will be affected by the international market after joining the WTO, and we have been prepared for this for a long time. We have actively introduced talents, promoted standardized management, and developed five new joint venture models. Self-owned brand sedan models are also being actively planned. We believe that as long as colleagues in the domestic automobile industry can work together with one heart and one mind, the impact of foreign automobile industry on China can be completely resolved. ”

"Well, Mr. Wang's determination is commendable, and we must have such a spirit to strategically despise the enemy. Tactically attach importance to the enemy's ......" Wu Zhaoyun made a comment without oil and salt, which can be regarded as a compliment to Wang Kaihua.

"But......" Wang Kaihua said, "Lenin once said that a fortress is the easiest to attack from within. In the face of external competition, we are not afraid. But if there are black sheep in our country's auto industry, maliciously disrupting the market order, taking all kinds of improper means to suppress peers, and turning against each other, then there is no need to wait for foreign manufacturers to arrive. We've already broken ourselves down. Lessons like this have not been uncommon in recent years. ”

"Oh, can Mr. Wang tell me in detail, which black sheep is it, and what kind of market order is disrupted?"

A voice sounded next to him, Wang Kaihua looked back, quickly stood up, and greeted with a smile on his face: "It's Director Cui." When did you come......"

It turned out that it was when Wang Kaihua made a generous statement. Cui Hongchun, the new deputy director of the Economic and Trade Commission, had already walked to his side. The others had already seen Cui Hongchun and wanted to say hello, but were stopped by Cui Hongchun. It wasn't until Wang Kaihua finished saying his words that Cui Hongchun interjected with a smile and asked.

"Mr. Wang, sit down and say, sit down and say." Cui Hongchun patted Wang Kaihua on the shoulder. Motioned for him to sit down. Subsequently, he himself refused Wu Zhaoyun's invitation to let him sit on the main seat, and sat next to Wang Kaihua in a position that someone else had just ceased.

"We engage in a market economy and emphasize free competition, but we are opposed to vicious competition by unscrupulous means. We have always been resolutely opposed. If there is indeed a matter that disrupts the market order mentioned by President Wang, the Economic and Trade Commission will certainly take necessary measures to stop it and seriously deal with it. Can Mr. Wang elaborate on the specific situation? Cui Hongchun said with a warm spring breeze on his face.

For Cui Hongchun, the CEOs of the participating companies are not very familiar, but they know that he has just been transferred from the Ministry of Agriculture to serve as the deputy director in charge of electromechanical and automobile fields. After taking up his new position, the deputy director has participated in many meetings in the industry, but rarely expresses his opinions, most of the time just listens to other people's narratives, and seems to be a person with no sense of existence. However, some people have inquired and know that Cui Hongchun was mainly engaged in the construction of agricultural machinery industry when he was in the Ministry of Agriculture, and he made remarkable achievements, and he was obviously not a mediocre person.

"Actually, what I'm going to say is also an open secret. We have a very large private enterprise group in China, relying on several patented technologies in our hands, to develop an electric vehicle. In the absence of widespread recognition in the industry, the company has engaged in malicious hype and exaggerated the advantages of electric vehicles, which has greatly misled consumers. In this case, the sales of passenger cars of various automobile companies in the country have been seriously affected, and if this situation continues, I believe that most companies will not be able to complete this year's production tasks, and may even suffer serious losses. Wang Kaihua said.

"Is there such a thing?" Cui Hongchun's brow furrowed into a pimple, making people feel that he seemed to be extremely worried about the seriousness of the problem. It's a pity that Qin Hai was not at the scene, otherwise he would definitely be impressed by Lao Cui's genius acting skills.

Cui Hongchun's baby son Cui Xuezhe has become Qin Hai's eldest brother-in-law a few years ago, Cui Hongchun and Qin Hai are both relatives and old friends, how can he not know these grievances and grievances about electric vehicles? It was expected that Wang Kaihua would attack the Daqin Group at this meeting, and he came to attend the meeting of the Automobile Industry Bureau in order to stop Wang Kaihua and his ilk from killing people with the knife of the Economic and Trade Commission.

"Mr. Wang, can you tell me which company did this, and what untruths did they publish?" Cui Hongchun asked with a serious look, and opened a small notebook to make a record of it.

"The enterprise, everyone knows, it is Anhe Daqin Industrial Group. As for the cars they produce, they are in cooperation with Hongyuan Automobile Company, Lao Zhu, do you know this situation best? Wang Kaihua said, and nodded to Zhu Shanyan, the vice president of Hongyuan Automobile Company.

In this room, the most embarrassing and proud, is Zhu Shanyan. In his early years, he was the director of production of Anshi Automobile Group, and because he felt that he could not repay the burden, he jumped out of ship and joined Hongyuan Automobile Company, which had just been established at that time. Hongyuan Automobile Company is an enterprise established by Hongyuan Province itself, and in the eyes of "regular troops" such as Beidian and Anshi, it is just a role such as a district team and a county team.

From the very beginning, Hongyuan Automobile Company has taken a road of developing its own brand, which is completely different from the idea of relying on joint venture brands for enterprises such as Beidian and Anshi. In the past few years, Hongyuan Automobile is basically trying to survive in the gap between old enterprises and national policies, and if it were not for the firm support of Hongyuan Province, I am afraid that it would have been closed long ago.

The commissioning of Daqin Automobile was a turning point for Hongyuan Automobile Company. Although the car is branded after Daqin, Hongyuan Automobile Company also has half of the shares in it. Daqin Group only provides key components such as supercapacitors, motors, and control systems in the whole vehicle, and the other parts are all mature components of the original Hongyuan Automobile, and the final assembly is also completed in Hongyuan Province, providing a large number of tax revenue and employment opportunities for Hongyuan Province.

In similar meetings in the past, Zhu Shanyan has always been in a marginal position, and everyone will only revolve around Wang Kaihua and others, and they will not give him a straight eye on a "hillbilly" like him. But since Daqin electric vehicles put into production, there are more and more people who come to set porcelain with him, although the companies do not have a clear idea of the development of electric vehicles, but the prospects of electric vehicles are very clear, everyone wants to be familiar with Zhu Shanyan in advance, so as to get some help from Hongyuan Automobile in the future.

This time, Daqin Group started from public opinion and declared war on old car companies such as Beidian and Anshi, and Hongyuan Automobile Company adopted an ostrich policy, claiming that this was only a unilateral action of Daqin Group and had nothing to do with Hongyuan Automobile Company, and Hongyuan Automobile Company did not intend to comment on it. Sitting at the venue, seeing the complaining or annoyed gazes that everyone threw at him, Zhu Shanyan felt that he couldn't be more relieved.

Although he thought so in his heart, Zhu Shanyan was not arrogant enough to dare to arouse the anger of the public. Hearing Wang Kaihua call his name, he sneered at everyone and said:

"Well, I know a little bit about this...... Not much, just a little. Daqin electric vehicles are nominally produced by our Hongyuan Automobile and Daqin Group, but in fact Daqin Group is the actual controller, and we are also an assembly plant to earn some hard-earned money.

This time, Daqin Group placed some advertisements in the media, mainly to cooperate with the sales of electric vehicles. As far as we know, several large foreign automobile manufacturers have begun to trial produce electric vehicles, in order to avoid the impact of foreign brands on us, we need to speed up the promotion of electric vehicles, seize the market.

As for the exaggerated propaganda that Mr. Wang said, I don't know much, what are the specific exaggerations, can Mr. Wang give me a hint, after I go back, I will find an opportunity to reflect it to the Daqin Group. Of course, whether it will be useful or not, I can't guarantee it. You also know, the Daqin Group's side...... Not very easy to talk, hehe, hehe. ”

Zhu Shanyan's words are very correct, very low-key, very aggrieved, so that people can't find the slightest fault. However, the participants present knew that he was actually hiding a needle in the cotton, and stabbed Wang Kaihua silently: Didn't you say that we were exaggerating the propaganda, then good, you can tell me in public, which one is exaggerated, and let Director Cui and Director Wu comment on it.
