Chapter 249: Fooling the Predator into Boarding the Boat
PS: Brothers, revised.
――――――――――――――――
What are the spare parts that Wanxiang Group can provide to Runhua Industry? Just to name a few: bearings, brakes and their accessories, instrument panels...... There are too many things that can be provided, and the scale of demand of Runhua Industry may not be much less than that of SAIC.
SAIC sounds great, but what was the actual production capacity of SAIC in 1986? There are less than 2,000 Shang@Hai brand cars, less than 3,000 assembled Santana cars, and less than 5,000 cars per year.
And what about the production capacity of FAW and FAW in the same period? Hehe...... Speaking out may make SAIC feel embarrassed.
Lu Guanqiu doesn't know how big the actual demand of Runhua Industry is, but in any case, for Wanxiang Company, which has huge financial pressure, this is a straw that can save lives, no, it is not only a life-saving straw problem, if it can establish a cooperative relationship with Runhua Industry, Lu Guanqiu is extremely sure, this will be a turning point for Wanxiang Group.
Chen Geng really brought a huge surprise to Lu Guanqiu.
After everyone sat down, Chen Geng's first question was: "Manager Lu, does Universal have transmission shaft products?" ”
"Propeller shaft?" Lu Guanqiu's mind was spinning rapidly, but his mouth was not slow at all: "No, but we are developing a transmission shaft with a maximum torque of 50 Nm, which can be delivered in two months at the latest...... How? Does Runhua Industrial have this need? ”
Lu Guanqiu's brain worked hard to turn: When did Runhua Industrial have a demand for transmission shaft products?
In fact, strictly speaking, the transmission shaft and the universal joint are a pair of inseparable twin brothers, and the transmission shaft itself is a universal joint transmission. On cars with front-engines, rear-wheel drive (or all-wheel drive). Due to the deformation of the suspension during the movement of the car. There is often relative movement between the input shaft of the drive shaft main reducer and the output shaft of the transmission / transfer case, so the power cannot be transmitted in a straight line, but the power must be transmitted, so there is a universal joint transmission, that is, we are most familiar with the truck upper cross type transmission shaft, the universal group itself is providing universal joints for domestic automobile enterprises, naturally it does not produce transmission shafts, but the technical reserves of transmission shafts are there.
Chen Geng nodded. He continued to ask, "What about the drive axle?" Can you do it? ”
Transaxle? Thinking of the drive shaft that Chen Geng just said, Lu Guanqiu really became energetic all of a sudden: "Of course there is no problem, since we can make the drive shaft, we can naturally drive the axle, but I don't know what kind of drive axle you want, Manager Chen?" Monolithic or disconnected? What is the maximum torque that is required? ”
He was so excited, but he was gathered by the leaders of SAIC, and he was depressed and went out for a walk, but now it seems that he has picked up a big business.
"It's very small," Chen Geng took out a few photos and said, "It's for our company's three-wheeled motorcycle." The engine has a maximum output of 7.4 kW and a maximum torque of 10.7 Nm. Not a problem, right? ”
"There is no problem at all," Lu Guanqiu breathed a sigh of relief, for the universal company engaged in automobile power transmission, motorcycle-level power transmission is completely a piece of cake, but when he saw these photos, he remembered something: "Manager Chen, forgive me, if I remember correctly, this engine seems to have been developed by your company itself?" ”
"That's right." Chen Geng nodded.
"In that case, then...... This kind of propeller shaft should not be difficult for Runhua Industry......"
"You wonder why we don't produce it ourselves?" Chen Geng laughed.
"Hehe......" Lu Guanqiu laughed twice, it can be regarded as a default, compared with the development of an engine, the difficulty of engaging in a transmission shaft is undoubtedly much lower, Lu Guanqiu is a little puzzled, since Runhua Industry has such a bullish face engine has come out, why do you have to find yourself to provide the transmission shaft and drive axle?
Of course, this is a good thing, although Chen Geng did not say how much demand they have, but conservatively estimated, 10,000 sets a year must be there after all, right? But in this way, it is more and more strange: at least 10,000 sets of transmission shafts and drive axles is not a small number, these perforated shafts and drive axles to be done by Wanxiang, not only to ensure a certain quality, but also to give Wanxiang a certain cost, if you do it yourself, this part of the money will not be saved?
"It's very simple, because it's not cost-effective," Chen Geng explained to Lu Guanqiu: "For example, if we want to produce these two things, even if we don't count the space and electricity, at least we need to buy additional production equipment, right?" Need an experienced worker, right? These things are all costs, but if you spend a lot of money to buy these things, can you make the best use of them? I think this is very hanging, this is a waste of resources.
Again, what should I do if there is a small defect in some parts? If it's your own child, maybe you'll turn a blind eye to it, but what if it's a supplier from an outsourcing company? ”
Speaking of this, Chen Geng laughed mischievously: "You dare to give me substandard parts? If you didn't say it, hit it back and do it again! If I delay my production, I will not only have to start again, but also be fined! Other people's children, you don't have to be soft when you fight. ”
Lu Guanqiu also laughed, he understood what Chen Geng meant, and he also understood the meaning that Chen Geng didn't say: For Runhua Industry, if their annual demand is 10,000 sets, they will produce 10,200 sets at most, and the extra 200 sets are spare parts, but if Wanxiang Group comes to do this project, Wanxiang Group may do 20,000 sets, 30,000 sets, and the cost will follow. Perhaps their purchase price will be much lower than that of their own production.
This is a really smart person, no wonder he can make Runhua Industry so big in such a short period of time, sure enough, knowledge is power, knowledge is wealth, and it is not okay to accept it.
Rubbing his hands, Lu Guanqiu smiled honestly: "Cheng, since Manager Chen can see us Wanxiang, then I will organize public relations when I go back, 2 months, 2 months at the latest, we will definitely provide you with qualified accessories." ”
2 months is indeed not slow, but Chen Geng is not satisfied with this speed, he shook his head and said: "2 months is too long, I can only give you a month, but if the technical strength of your side is not enough, Runhua Industry can send someone to help." ”
"A ...... month" Lu Guanqiu gritted his teeth, and finally nodded heavily: "Okay, then a month!" ”
"Manager Lu is really happy," Chen Geng raised his thumb and said, "In this way, if we cooperate happily this time, the transmission gear set of our motorcycle engine will also be handed over to Wanxiang." ”
"Really?" Don't look at the gear is not conspicuous, but this thing is a real high-tech thing, the price of a set of high-precision motorcycle gear sets is not cheap, compared to the universal joint products that Wanxiang company is doing now, the technical content is higher, and the profit margin is naturally higher, if Chen Geng is really willing to hand over the gear set to Wanxiang part, Wanxiang will really earn.
"How else can I joke about this kind of thing? But Manager Lu, I don't know if you are interested in a suggestion? ”
Now Wanxiang company is not a few years from the domestic auto parts industry leading enterprises, now they are just an annual sales of just over one million, is for how to get the right to control the shares of the township small enterprises, Chen Gengdu has come up with so many benefits, now Runhua industry is the god of wealth of Wanxiang company, how can Lu Guanqiu refuse? He nodded busily and said, "Manager Chen's suggestion must be a good suggestion, you say, I'll listen to it." ”
"That's the case, we have built a motorcycle industry base in Haizhou, that is, Haizhou Motorcycle Industry Industrial Park, which has settled in many enterprises in the motorcycle parts industry......"
Without waiting for Chen Geng to finish speaking, Lu Guanqiu, who understood what Chen Geng meant, said simply: "Okay, we will also go to Haizhou to build a deputy factory and serve Runhua Industry nearby!" ”
"You don't think about it anymore?" Lu Guanqiu's simplicity still surprised Chen Geng a little.
"What to consider, don't think about it," Lu Guanqiu said firmly: "Manager Chen, you are a big customer of our Wanxiang Company, and we will serve you wholeheartedly!" ”
This is the vitality of the private economy. Chen Geng sighed in his heart: If it weren't for this business spirit of drilling at the seams, how could the private economy be able to force the state-run economy to retreat step by step in such a short period of time?
Many years later, Lu Guanqiu, who has become the global king of automobile and motorcycle spare parts, once told reporters with great emotion when interviewed by reporters: "The most important turning point in the development process of Wanxiang Group is to set up a branch in Haizhou, and I want to thank my friend, Mr. Chen Geng of Runhua Industry. ”
But now, Mr. Lu Guanqiu, the king of auto parts, is ecstatic about the big pie that suddenly fell on top of his head, at this moment, where can he take care of SAIC? He knew very well how important this opportunity was to Wanxiang Company, so he refused to wait even for a moment, and after bidding farewell to Chen Geng, he immediately hurriedly stepped into the car to go home.
It was only at this time that Zhang Xiangyang asked the doubts in his heart: "Third child, you seem to value this person very much?" ”
"You're right," Chen Geng nodded, and without waiting for Zhang Xiangyang to ask the reason, Chen Geng explained to him: "This guy is very powerful, you see, just rush to his spirit of doing business, in less than 10 years, his Wanxiang company will definitely become one of the most important spare parts enterprises in the domestic automobile and motorcycle industry." ”
"Really? Is there such a god? Zhang Xiangyang was a little unconvinced.
Chen Geng smiled mysteriously: "You'll know when the time comes." (To be continued.) )
