A few days later, seven of Eriksson's compatriot Nils and seven others arrived in Miami, Florida, and Lin Johnson also entertained them, all of whom had worked at Saab Motors. Eriksson introduced them to Lin Qiangsheng, they stayed in Bincheng for more than half a year, they were arranged by Lin Qiangsheng in various positions in the company, and they also worked in Binqi and Harbin Motor, and Lin Qiangsheng also entrusted them to go deep into various positions in the factory to do an overall investigation of the operation of the three enterprises. Of course, they are also involved in many of the company's decisions, including the promotion of product quality standardization in the company.

These seven Swedes will inevitably look at Chinese companies and business managers when they go to an unfamiliar oriental country, and they will find a lot of problems, which can be seen more thoroughly than Lin Johnson.

Before Christmas, Lin asked seven Swedes to analyze the company, find out the gap between his company and European and American companies, and how to better improve the quality of the company's products.

Nils and the others happily returned to Sweden for Christmas, and began to prepare materials, and summarized a 166-page analysis report based on what they saw in the Ben Cheng enterprise.

The seven of them arrived in Miami and sent the analysis materials to Lin Qiangsheng, who spent two days reading the report and frowning deeply.

"Mu Qing, fax Nils' report back to Silicon Valley and let Wang Huichang find someone to translate it and send it back to China!" Lin Qiangsheng instructed Mu Qing.

Mu Qing rearranged the reports scattered on the sofa and carpet, and she asked Lin Qiangsheng, "Okay, I'll go right away, do you have any other orders?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng thought about it, shook his head and said, "Make me a cup of coffee, there is nothing else!" ”

"Hey!" Mu Qing briskly agreed, walked out of the room with the papers, and after a while, she brought a cup of coffee and sent a fax quickly.

Lin Qiangsheng took the coffee and thought lightly.

The report of the Swiss pointed to three companies: Binqi and his company. If we do not change the supply chain and replace domestic suppliers, it is impossible to achieve the same industrial standards as European, American and Japanese companies, let alone achieve the same quality as the products of German, Japanese and American companies that Lin Qiangsheng expects.

If you don't make a thorough change to the production system, adopt international suppliers, and carry out the quality management of any product standardization enterprise according to the current way of development, it is empty talk! Forcibly formulating it is also a complete compromise of China's existing development capabilities, and the quality of products produced according to China's actual situation can never be compared with European, American and Japanese enterprises!

The Swiss gave a possibility. If China's engineering capabilities were compromised, and this low quality standard formed an inertia that became the basis of business management, then Lin Johnson's company would become a second-rate or even third-rate company. His R&D center has to be placed abroad, and the domestic R&D system will never be able to catch up with the scientific research level of developed countries such as Europe, America and Japan, because it has to pay for the domestic low-quality production system, and lower the product quality and production requirements to meet the domestic low processing capacity.

There are many factors that cause this predicament, and the traditional belief is that China's modern industry started late, and we have not caught up with the first and second industrial revolutions.

But many countries have also failed to catch up, such as Japan and South Korea. *Bay Area, Singapore. Although these countries or regions have not caught up with the industrial revolution, they have cleverly taken advantage of the world economic environment to make themselves developed countries and technologically advanced countries.

In addition, although the principle of the internal combustion engine has not changed, with the development of the automobile industry, the supply chain has gradually improved, and major parts suppliers have blossomed. As a small powertrain in the automotive industry under the manufacturing industry, the internal combustion engine of the automobile is not to mention the know-how (know-how, know-how, and process knowledge) of the internal combustion engine is mastered by the main engine factory, just the parts. The founding of the People's Republic of China has not been as long as the operation of parts companies such as Bosch, Mahle, Erlingklinger, etc. Therefore, from the accumulation level of engineering, absolute time has been thrown off by Europe, the United States and Japan. This is a congenital genetic defect!

After these enterprises have grown. They have registered a large number of patents for related technologies, and China always encounters problems of one kind or another when it wants to buy these underlying patents, not only economic but also political or racial factors, which hinder China's technological development.

Another is the worship of "craftsmen" in countries like Japan and Germany, where the tradition of technology is respected and their craftsmen are given high social status. Excellent craftsmen are more likely to win the respect of society as a whole in such a country.

Although the United States does not have the worship of "craftsmen", they have always been a paradise for inventors, and the story of self-made is always talked about by Americans, and this culture also promotes and encourages people to invent and create and constantly pursue higher technology.

In this regard, China has been left far behind by these countries. Since ancient times, we have had the idea that everything is inferior, only reading is high. And this "book" is not an exponential physics, chemistry, astronomy, and medical knowledge, in traditional Chinese culture, these are just small paths, and "book" refers specifically to Confucian books. In China, there is a concept of "strange skills and tricks", that is, although the technology engaged in modern society has been freed from the shackles of the idea of tricks and tricks, but the degree of social respect has not reached the social status of countries such as Germany and Japan, let alone respected, and even those who taught and engaged in scientific research 80 years ago were "stinky old nine", and they were the objects of ridicule by the people!

One detail shows that the four most skilled assembly mechanics at Mazda in Japan can embed their nameplates on their engines.

Of course, these engines cannot all be assembled by them, and the inlaid nameplate means that the quality of these engines is guaranteed by these craftsmen. Japanese consumers recognize this guarantee and are very assured of the quality of the products affixed with the nameplate of the technician.

Mazda entrusted the quality of its products to four technicians, which shows that these four technicians have gained a high status in Mazda. And this kind of thing is impossible to happen in China, how can there be an opportunity to put a nameplate and let a few technicians take it? The name of the president and the director of the factory is also required, and the nameplate of a few technicians will not be required from the perspective of social respect or from the company's consideration, even if the factory recognizes Chinese consumers.

In the final analysis, this is a kind of technology worship, and people and people recognize this thing.

To establish a modern enterprise system, first of all, it is to respect and attach importance to skilled workers. Although Lin Qiangsheng's company has done a good job, there is still a big lack of attention compared with European, American and Japanese companies. For example, in terms of the salary of senior technical personnel, Japanese and German enterprises are not given the same favorable conditions, so there is no sense of honor and respect for cultivating senior technical talents. At the same time, a corporate culture in which employees pursue high technical capabilities has not been established.

The establishment of product standards is not only a casual enterprise to engage in standards can be established, from the domestic situation, the overall low level of the industry has a problem from the root. Not only Lin Johnson & Johnson's company needs to establish advanced quality standards, but also raw material manufacturers need to improve their technical level and production standards.

In their work, these people found that the problems encountered in the process of localization of spare parts that have been mass-produced in Europe to China have always made Swedish engineers scratch their heads.

If the spare parts are mass-produced in Europe with materials A and B, and there are no two materials in China, the reality is that the production of these two materials in accordance with European standards also needs to be carried out technology research and development and the introduction of process equipment, then it is better to directly use replacement materials to be more practical.

Domestic factories will be very likely to use replacement materials after thinking about it, and most domestic companies will definitely use replacement materials to save costs.

As a result, after the local localization of European products, its manufacturing materials have been reduced to A- and B-, although these two replacement materials can also be used together and the processing difficulty is very easy to overcome, but although the appearance of such a product is also like that, its product performance and service life is much worse than that of European products!

In the process of localization, there is a large gap between the existing materials in China and foreign materials, and in the case that foreign companies only sell products and do not sell material technology, domestic enterprises usually independently develop replacement materials, or simply buy low-tech obsolete goods provided by foreigners.

When such a product is manufactured, its performance and quality can not be compared with foreign countries, so that domestic products always give people a very low-end feeling! (To be continued......)
