Chapter 277: Alliance
The director of this factory, surnamed Shen, is an out-and-out Shanghainese.
"Director Shen, these machines of yours are well maintained!"
Jin Xiaoqiang looked at these machines, and then said to Director Shen with a smile.
"Yes! Oh, yes! Some of these machines were newly bought by me a few years ago, and some of them are old, don't look at the old models, but when you use them, I dare to give you a packing ticket, and there is absolutely no problem at all. ”
Jin Xiaoqiang is now a big celebrity in the automotive industry of the Celestial Empire, so don't look at this Shen factory director is much stronger than Jin Xiaoqiang, but in front of Jin Xiaoqiang, it is absolutely respectful, after all, the check in people's hands can determine his future life status!
If the business collapses, and the amount he owes the bank by the time comes, then his business will have to declare bankruptcy and be auctioned off by the bank, and he will really have to jump off the building at that time.
"Director Shen, I don't understand, hasn't our Celestial Empire's automobile industry developed very well in recent years? It seems that the auto parts are very moisturized, why did your company fall to such a point? ”
Jin Xiaoqiang's question is a bit straightforward, but this also happened to ask the sore spot of Director Shen, after listening to Jin Xiaoqiang's question, Director Shen couldn't help but shake his head, sighed and then said to Jin Xiaoqiang.
"Hey! Mr. Jin, don't you know that at the original time, when SAIC had not cooperated with Volkswagen, we could still do SAIC's business, and then after SAIC and Volkswagen cooperated, our life was a little sad
Yes, Volkswagen's technical requirements for car lights are stricter, at the beginning, it was easy to deal with, at that time they produced Santana, we can cope with it after several technical updates. Later, SAIC and again
GM cooperated, I thought that our business could also be bigger, but at this time, the Japanese came in, because their technology is indeed better than ours, and Volkswagen and GM are also willing to use their products, so we
Originally, there were car manufacturers such as Maple in Shanghai, but then Maple was no longer good, only Volkswagen and GM were left, and we had no choice but to take orders for some leftovers. And then to the back
Come, it really can't be mixed, we began to switch to taillights, and also introduced technology from the Japanese, specializing in LED taillights, but unfortunately the timing was a little wrong, at that time LED taillights were not popular in the Celestial Empire
Come on, after all, the cost is on the high side. However, we introduced the production process and technology of LED, and we had no choice but to find another way to do LED lighting, but the result was still not very good, and then we could only be reduced to the production of flashlights
Now, and then again, it's what it is now. ”
Director Shen is also a bachelor, and he told the story of so many years of experience, without hiding too much, and after Jin Xiaoqiang heard it, he also knew it.
In fact, this director Shen still has some vision and determination, but unfortunately, it is not a good time for him to catch up, and his factory is located in Shanghai, which determines that he has to face the fate of direct dialogue with giants in the car and other industries like Koito, and of course he will lose very badly.
If his business was in Jiangsu or some places in Zhejiang, he would not necessarily lose so badly, after all, in Shanghai, the cost of doing such an industrial business is a bit too high.
"Hmmm! Director Shen, how are the workers in the factory doing now? ”
After caring about the machine, Jin Xiaoqiang began to care about the workers again, after all, compared with these machines, the really skilled and experienced workers are more valuable in his opinion.
"The workers are all right, many of these workers are old guys who have been working with me for 20 years, and their skills are quite good, and in the past few years, the factory has recruited a lot of new people, many of them
College Miles! Redesign concept, and processing technology, we have made great progress, if it is not now difficult to do the enterprise, I am really reluctant to give up this enterprise! |"
Director Shen said to Jin Xiaoqiang with some emotion, he didn't lie about this.
In fact, before coming to this company to inspect, Jin Xiaoqiang had already sent someone to find out the details of this company, and this company got to such a field today, in fact, it was not entirely because of the problem of competition but Koito. …,
They don't do Koito business, in fact, they do LED lighting, as well as for some motorcycles, electric bicycle companies, the production of headlights, etc., and they are also doing very well.
The reason why this company has problems is because of the problem of Director Shen himself, he likes to gamble, gambling on the table, and gambling in the stock market.
In fact, a few years ago, after this company entered the LED lighting market, the production of several LED emergency lights, the sales are still quite good, and every year can also rely on the relationship, from many motorcycle companies to get a lot of orders, before almost to get the order of Liji Group.
However, it was because of this Shen factory director who gambled that he lost a lot of money at the gambling table and a lot of money in the stock market, which caused the company's capital chain to break and was difficult to maintain.
So if you insist on talking about the quality of the machinery of the factory itself, as well as the technology of its own workers, it is really good.
Jin Xiaoqiang took a general look at the whole field, and there was indeed no difference with the data shown in the investigation report, and although the current situation in the factory was relatively poor, the workers still came to work, and there was no excessive brain drain.
So after finally returning to Director Shen's office, he said to this Director Shen.
"Okay, Director Shen, you can make a price!"
Director Shen rubbed his hands, and he didn't know the bottom in his heart, the actual value of his factory could be worth more than 10 million, but now he owed more than 10 million foreign debts, which were almost insolvent.
He didn't know what kind of price he should quote, and he reported it for fear that people would not agree, and in the end he would be miserable.
"What...... How about 20 million? ”
Director Shen thought about it, and finally gritted his teeth and said.
"Hehe, Director Shen, I heard that your factory has not been able to pay wages for two months, right? There are still a lot of unpaid payments outside! ”
"Forehead ......"
"So be it! I will not embarrass you, I will bear the payment for the goods and the wages of the workers. You can solve the other debts yourself, and I will give you another fifteen million, what do you think? ”
In fact, in the eyes of Jin Xiaoqiang now, 20 million is really a small amount that is not worth mentioning, but to do business, of course, you have to bargain!
"Huh? Good, good, good! ”
Boss Shen was overjoyed, although fifteen million was five million lower than his offer, but with this fifteen million, after paying off the foreign debt, if he didn't have to pay the wages and payment of the workers, he could still have a million left, so that he could still have a little living money on hand, which was much better than when the factory was taken away by the bank and he himself had no money left.
Soon the two sides got the contract, and on the day after signing the contract, Jin Xiaoqiang flew back to Nanyang.
Because there is still a grand meeting waiting for him in Nanyang, after several months of negotiations, Huayang Power finally reached an agreement with several domestic car companies such as Great Wall, Liji, Ricky, BYD, and JAC.
Everyone agreed to form a self-owned brand automobile alliance, and Huayang Power set up Huayang Seiko to produce the parts they needed for various enterprises.
On the side of Huayang Seiko, what everyone wants most is of course the 4AT transmission of Huayang Power, and Liji and Ricky, as well as Great Wall, even put forward a request for Huayang Power to provide them with support in turbocharging technology.
In addition to joint ventures, the only one in China that can produce turbocharged engines is Huayang Power, and the latest rotor turbine they announced at the Frankfurt Motor Show is even more covetous to the Germans, and the Americans have to give a thumbs up.
Such a powerful turbocharging technology, of course they want to get it, but they also know very well that Huayang Power is impossible to share with everyone even if it is generous.
But it doesn't matter, the rotor turbine can't be reached, isn't there still other ordinary turbo?
The previous Huayang Power's Yidong coupe, as well as the turbo equipped on the Yihu and other models, were all imported from BorgWarner and Honeywell in the United States.
After more than two years of exploration, Huayang Power has finally been able to produce ordinary fan-blade turbines that are not inferior to BorgWarner and Honeywell.
This is really a blessing for Huayang Power and other independent car companies in the Celestial Empire, you must know that this year can produce turbochargers with independent intellectual property rights, and it is currently such a company as Huayang Power.
The quality of the turbines produced by Huayang Power, of course, everyone can trust, and the price is cheaper than that imported from abroad.
But the hearts of these two companies are black enough, and the Americans' things are really good, but what can be sold to you is generally products that are several generations behind, and the price is still expensive.
Little Japan is no better than taking it, the price is a little cheaper than the Americans' goods, but the quality, I really dare not guarantee you.
So when Huayang Power announced that they could already produce ordinary turbochargers, these companies immediately accelerated the progress of this large-scale cooperation negotiation, so after a few months of effort, this alliance was formed.
Jin Xiaoqiang rushed back this time, of course, to catch up, the grand alliance signing ceremony, and by the way, he still had some other finishing work, which he had to complete quickly...... )
