Chapter 787: Fighting for the right to speak

In the past few days of meetings, many representatives of manufacturers, as well as owners of major racing venues, have a lot of arguments about the details of the event.

One moment it's about the displacement of the car, the next it's about the production car model, in short, you solve one, and the second one comes right away, and the little stumbling blocks are one after another......

On the surface, there are a lot of disputes over the refinement of the standards and promotion of the event.

However, Jin Xiaoqiang pondered carefully, especially on the attitude changes of major automobile manufacturers, and he found that it was not the so-called event promotion problem at all.

In fact, the most fundamental reason is that everyone has the dominance of this event, and even the competition for the right to speak in the Celestial Empire automobile market, and those big manufacturers are most worried about Huayang Power, once with the help of the promotion of this event, the bigger and stronger the event, which will cause the Automobile Association to get out of their control.

Once the dependence of the Automobile Association on the funds provided by them is weakened, then the Automobile Association will have a corresponding independent right to speak, so in the future in the automobile market of the Celestial Empire, it will be difficult for everyone to do whatever they want.

In the future, the good thing that major automakers will set the rules of the game may be gone forever.

So that's the most important issue behind the meetings of the past few days!

After understanding these problems, Jin Xiaoqiang was no longer so worried, he carefully analyzed the situation and found that in fact, such a situation was not a bad thing for him. And even a good thing.

Because the companies that stand on the opposite side of him are all large foreign car manufacturers, including Volkswagen. Toyota, Honda, and GM. Ford is dominated by foreign companies.

Many domestic auto companies don't care too much about the promotion of these events, such as several domestic independent brands, Liji, BYD, Liji, and the Great Wall. None of them had a clear choice to take that side.

After all, in their opinion, they do not have a large share of the domestic market, and the proportion of several companies in the domestic market is less than 20 percent.

On the other hand, they are not up to par in the basic technology of automobiles, and there are many places that rely on Huayang Power. or other foreign car companies, so it is not easy for them to choose a clear position.

The attitude of several large domestic state-owned car companies, such as FAW, SAIC and FAW, Dongfeng, etc., is not very clear.

Let's not talk about the second automobile and Dongfeng. The two of them in the domestic market, the focus is not on the family car, the second car has come out with a Xiali over the years, and it really can't come up with anything too good.

Although Dongfeng is also a joint venture, their partner is France's Citroen, and their products are out of Shennong Fukang and other models, which have been popular in the market for a period of time in the early years, and the rest of the time is basically not the mainstream of the domestic automobile market.

As for the attitude of FAW and SAIC, it is also very vague, it is said that their partners Volkswagen, Toyota, and GM are the main forces in singing against Huayang Power, and they should stand on the side of their partners.

But now their attitude is very vague, which makes people feel a little surprised, but in fact, if you analyze it carefully, it is also a reasonable thing.

FAW and Volkswagen, as well as Toyota, have been cooperating for a while, but these two companies are really not things, cooperation can be, and it is okay to make money from you, but when it comes to transferring technology, these two companies suddenly shook their heads like rattles.

SAIC is even more so, it has cooperated with Volkswagen for so many years, and has helped Volkswagen earn money in the Celestial Empire for so many years, but after so many years, Volkswagen even refuses to transfer the engine technology of a Santana, and they are really too much. …,

In the past few years, the people in China have become rich, and many post-80s consumers have grown up, and this generation of consumers is not so blindly chasing foreign products, and after so many years of development, this generation of consumers is obviously more national pride than their predecessors, and everyone has higher expectations for the things produced by their own nation.

This can be seen from the great success of Huayang Power in the market, so many automobile companies have plans to launch some of their own flagship brands.

After all, they always work as assembly workshops for these foreign companies, and no one wants to be poked in the backbone by the common people.

SAIC and FAW both had such ideas, but SAIC and Volkswagen were hindered in their discussions on technology transfer, let alone the Americans, so they could only bypass these two parties and buy a bankrupt Rover directly from the UK.

The FAW and Volkswagen to talk about technology transfer is also a nose of dust, and Toyota people don't talk to you at all, and in the end there is no way to get a set of chassis technology from Mazda to make the Pentium.

So in fact, to be honest, these two companies have long been dissatisfied with their partners.

Now these two companies are singing against Huayang Power, and they are also playing Tai Chi along the water, you gringos, what you want, how can people not know, but we just don't care, how do you want to do it, you do it yourself, even if you have the ability, if you can't do it, hehe, then we have nothing to lose.

After Jin Xiaoqiang figured out the mentality of major automobile manufacturers, he also had confidence in his heart.

Well, since the big brother of FAW and SAIC is silent, neither supports nor opposes, then it will be easy to do, and we will leave the rest to Huayang Power to do it ourselves.

Jin Xiaoqiang immediately found the person in charge of the automobile association who was in charge of this meeting, this person and Jin Xiaoqiang were a family five hundred years ago, also surnamed Jin, named Jin Zhiguang, is a big-faced man in his forties, who used to work in BAIC for ten years, and later relied on his family relationship to enter the work of the automobile association.

This person is in the prime of life, and it is the time to seek progress, so I thought that I could continue the promotion of this event to expand the influence of the Automobile Association among the major automobile companies in the country, and then obtain a certain amount of political capital for himself.

Who would have thought that these gringos were obstructing in every way, in the past few days, Jin Zhiguang has been on the fire because of the promotion of this event, and he can't sleep every day.

This event, he was handed over to be in charge, and he also made a military order, if this event is held well, then he will be a great achievement, if it is messed up, then he will definitely have to carry the black pot.

At this time, Jin Xiaoqiang, the strong sponsor of the event, came forward to invite, where did he dare not come?

"Mr. Jin, the things of the past few days have made you smile, I am also contacting leaders from all walks of life in the past few days to coordinate the affairs of the competition, please rest assured, this competition will definitely be successful."

As a mixed person in the automobile industry, Jin Xiaoqiang has a lot of energy, he Jin Zhiguang is clear, don't look young in front of him, but the strength of others, it is absolutely not to be underestimated.

And he was also afraid that Jin Xiaoqiang would be angry because of the at the meeting in the past few days, although the current automobile association has no lethality in the eyes of various automobile manufacturers.

If you want to promote an event, you have to look at the eyes of these car manufacturers to act, and as a senior person in charge of the Automobile Association, Jin Zhiguang also feels very aggrieved.

"Haha, you think too much, Brother Jin, in fact, I already know about this matter, isn't there that there are many automobile companies, standing behind some people, and want to ask for some special conditions with our automobile association?" …,

Jin Xiaoqiang laughed, and then said, as soon as Jin Zhiguang heard Jin Xiaoqiang's words, he knew that it seemed that people already knew a lot of inside stories.

In fact, in the past few days, those foreign-funded enterprises, through the owners of the venues they control, have been constantly making demands on the part of the Automobile Association.

Some of their demands are very excessive, and some are completely unreasonable, to put it bluntly, they are holding the Son of Heaven hostage to order the princes.

Anyway, there are only a few suitable racing venues in your Celestial Empire, and these venues are all built by us, and if you want to expand the influence of your Automobile Association and want to hold events, you have to hold them in these venues.

If the event is not successful, it is your loss, and if it is held successfully, how to divide the account behind it, do you know it?

And should you also give us these companies, some specific preferential conditions?

Wait, every day when Jin Zhiguang hears these proposals, he feels that his brain is about to explode, and it is really better to be a flat-headed ordinary man than to be an official with no real power in the Celestial Empire.

"Yes, Xiaoqiang, how old am I to you, call you brother, this matter is really not funny! I didn't expect these foreign devils to be so uneasy and kind. ”

When he thought of the promotion of this event, because of the resistance brought by the selfishness of these foreign private companies, Jin Zhiguang felt that his head was big.

"Humph! These gringos, as expected, are not well-intentioned, want to make as much money as possible in our market, and then do not treat our consumers as human beings, such a thing, we will not allow them to do this in the future. ”

Jin Xiaoqiang is also very annoyed with Volkswagen, Toyota, and Hyundai's attitude.

"Yes, over the years, Toyota, Honda have cut corners, Volkswagen has reduced and increased prices, and there are no claims for quality problems, hey, the pressure on our automobile association is too great......"

Thinking of the evil deeds of these foreign-funded enterprises, Jin Zhiguang also shook his head.

"Hmph, don't they want us to play? Isn't it because they have the space in their hands? Okay, then let's build the venue ourselves, so we won't play with them......"

As soon as Jin Xiaoqiang said this, Jin Zhiguang's eyes suddenly lit up, sure enough, this guy is still courageous, in fact, he has also thought about the problem of building a new venue, but this international-level racing track, how much does it cost to build one casually?

It's not something that their automobile association can afford at all, but with the big rich man of Huayang Power coming forward, is the money still a problem? rq
