The trip to Russia was a complete success, and Jin Xiaoqiang no longer stayed too much in Russia, and it has been nearly a month or two since he came out this time, and it will be the Detroit Auto Show at the beginning of the year.

He still has to go back and prepare, originally his Huayang Power was not only considered to participate in this Detroit Auto Show, but he couldn't stand the invitation of General Motors.

And at the recent Paris Motor Show, they launched several blockbuster models, especially large-displacement pickups, as well as the large-size SUV, as well as the full-size seven-seat Ruihu, such models can basically be said to be prepared for the American market, plus now Huayang Power's models are bought in the United States is not bad, if you don't go to the United States, it is really a bit too faceless.

And before that, he also designed a new small steel cannon model, although the small steel cannon is not a very popular model in the United States, but in the United States, a country with a developed car culture, there are quite a lot of supporters.

Recently, when he contacted China by phone, he also learned that the domestic design team and the road test team have almost debugged this car, and it seems that it is time to launch this car.

In such a short period of time, so many blockbuster models have been launched in a row, and when the time comes, whether it is Japanese, American, or German, these car companies will definitely be unprepared, and they will take this opportunity to disrupt their development and deployment.

New models have been launched at each auto show for several consecutive years, which can undoubtedly attract a lot of attention and be sought after by car fans, so that they can establish a high-end, trendy and fashionable brand concept for their Huayang Power.

Once this image is established, then other car companies will definitely target Huayang Power, and follow closely to catch up with their own side.

And they can divert their attention at the same time, began to continue to develop hybrid models, and when these foreign car companies catch up with the progress of Huayang Power, they will find that at this time, their side has turned into the latest hybrid vehicle technology field, and in this field, they have been far behind.

This feeling of always being one step ahead is exactly the effect that Jin Xiaoqiang has been pursuing.

In the past, we used to chase after other people's butts, and now it's the turn of these gringos to follow after us.

However, after returning to China this time, the first thing is not to care about Huayang Power's preparations for the Detroit Auto Show, after all, Huayang Power does not know how many times it has participated in the world's large-scale auto shows, and there are Wang Jiao and a group of teams brought out by him, who have long been familiar with the preparation of such an auto show and the work of counselor.

The first thing Jin Xiaoqiang had to care about after returning to China was to design two cars for Great Wall and FAW that they urgently needed.

The Great Wall's requirements are very simple, that is, to have a low-cost urban SUV, and FAW's requirements are the same as before, to ask Jin Xiaoqiang to help design a new Hongqi car.

If 2005 follows the original historical development, this year will undoubtedly be a very bleak year for the automobile industry of the Celestial Empire, in this year, the entire Celestial Empire's automobile industry, whether it is manufacturing or sales, will become extremely difficult due to the adjustment of the domestic economic situation.

But now, because of the emergence of Huayang Power, this year has become extremely popular for the entire automotive industry, and because of the emergence of Huayang Power, the spring of the Celestial Empire automobile industry, which will only appear from the middle of next year, has arrived in advance.

It is precisely because Huayang Power has brought better technical content and technical standards to the automobile industry of the Celestial Empire, and has also vigorously promoted it to its counterparts across the country, which has led to the fierce competition in the national automobile industry. …,

The German car companies, as well as the Japanese car companies, and the American car companies, which could have stabilized the market of mid-to-high-end price models, and then watched the domestic independent enterprises of the Celestial Empire kill each other in order to seize the low-end market, and now they can't sit still.

In the face of Huayang Power's high-tech content, but low-price competition, they were a little out of breath by Huayang Power's serial combination punches.

And because Huayang Power appeared too suddenly, and also launched a series of beautiful models that are widely welcomed by the market, in the absence of new models to compete with Huayang Power's models, they have to join the price war one after another to maintain their market.

Japanese cars took the lead in cutting prices, American cars followed, and South Korean cars simply ripped off the last fig leaf, and went directly to the low-end models to mix the world, and at this time, the Germans who had always been accustomed to arrogance and high above couldn't sit still, and began to half-hide and join the price war, and they are currently selling several models on the market, have adopted a quiet price reduction method to start promoting and guaranteeing the market.

And it is this kind of car dealers' repeated price reduction behavior, but it has stimulated the enthusiasm of consumers in the Celestial Empire to buy cars, originally coveted for a long time, the models worth more than 200,000 yuan, now have dropped by 40,000 or 50,000, and some even more, which makes the consumers who already like to take advantage of it are overjoyed.

It is stimulated by such market conditions, today's Tianchao automobile market from the beginning of the year, it is particularly hot, from January to April has been the warm-up stage, and after the Shanghai Auto Show in April, Huayang Power took the lead in announcing several new cars, especially after the launch of the Qoros series, the automobile consumer market of the Tianzhao Dynasty has suddenly entered the blowout stage.

This trend is of course led by Huayang Power's Qoros models, beautiful appearance, excellent powertrain, coupled with extremely affordable pricing, which immediately made many consumers have a soft spot for Qoros.

Other Japanese, German, American and many other foreign manufacturers, in the face of Huayang Power's aggressive momentum in the market, have no choice but to reduce prices again, especially their mid-level models, which are the most powerful price cuts.

In addition, South Korean cars simply entered the low-end car market to disrupt the situation, which made the days of several domestic independent brands particularly sad, Liji, Ricky, BYD and other independent brands, born in a short time, not much experience in research and development, especially in the design of models, has been widely criticized by consumers.

Now in the face of such a market situation, they have to increase their cooperation with Huayang Power to ensure their market share, so they have invited Jin Xiaoqiang to help them design several new cars.

As soon as the graphics of the new car designed by Jin Xiaoqiang for them were delivered to them, they immediately won the praise of the engineers of these manufacturers, and the leaders of these companies immediately decided to launch the project, and also invited some designers from Huayang Power to guide the work.

With the needs of post-processing, they even purchased a batch of simple machine tools produced by Huayang Precision from Huayang Power, which also brought a lot of benefits to Huayang Precision.

Although the core components of these machine tools, such as servo AC motors, ball screw bearings and other components, are imported, after all, other parts are produced by them, the bed of the machine tool, as well as the tools used, the circuit design inside, and the later assembly and so on.

These have provided Huayang Seiko workers with quite effective exercise opportunities, and their assembly process can be strictly operated in accordance with the manual compiled by Huayang Seiko, so that Huayang Seiko's machine tools, in terms of machine durability, and noise, etc., can be much stronger than other domestic counterparts. …,

Although it can't compete with companies like DMG, Mazak, Yamazaki, and Amada, at least it has made considerable progress, and as long as we stick to this path, we will have a breakthrough sooner or later.

During this time, several companies such as Ligie, Ricky, and BYD successively broke out pictures of their newly developed models on the website of Autohome, some of which were camouflage photos, and some of which were simply some test car photos.

The reason why they do this is to attract attention, and to resist the increasing pressure from Hyundai and Kia, you must know that these two companies may not be anything compared to Huayang Power, but compared to them, they are unscrupulous aircraft carriers.

In the field of precision in car building, as well as engines and transmissions, although they cannot be compared with the world's first-class manufacturers, they still have to be a few streets behind them.

And now the projects they can compete with these two companies rely on the new models designed by Jin Xiaoqiang, as well as the automatic transmission provided by Huayang Seiko.

With these two selling points, coupled with lower pricing, they believe that many consumers are still willing to give them some opportunities.

These car companies are constantly fighting openly and secretly with these two companies in South Korea, which makes the Great Wall company unable to sit still.

Great Wall's strength was pickup trucks, and then in 2000, they started building SUVs, and during that time they launched two models, the Saifu and the Saiying.

However, due to technical limitations, their two cars are mainly diesel cars, and they are both hard-core SUVs, and these two cars still have to be sold when there are few models in the early market.

But since Huayang Power launched their first urban SUV model, the Yihu, two years ago, their life has not been easy.
