Chapter 758: Passing the Microphone
"Lady Mia, you seem to be looking laid-back lately." In the capital, in the office of the MTU company's office, Schultz, who was in the dust, looked at Mia and said with envy.
Last year, MTU delivered 500 units of 396 diesel engines, and this batch of diesel engine orders simply shocked the whole of Europe.
What about the big eastern country that cries poverty? It's only been a few years, and it's so rich! A diesel engine is in short supply, which makes people envious, jealous and hateful.
In contrast, Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks will be overshadowed, last year originally thought there would be progress, but, after talking with a machine factory, it was unhappy, in terms of specific prices, the differences between the two sides are too great.
And now, Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks have encountered a bottleneck in sales, and the European market is about to be saturated!
After the development of Europe in the sixties and seventies, and after entering the eighties, the growth rate slowed down, and many companies even began to struggle.
Britain's Iron Lady is the best at reforming with a big axe, and after seeing the decline, the Iron Lady made an astonishing move, vigorously promoting privatization, and even sparing no effort to promote the reform of private ownership in various military industrial sectors, hoping to be rejuvenated.
And Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks, although they are still operating step by step, but everyone can feel a crisis, weak growth, lack of stamina, such Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks, now may be able to maintain, in the future, it is difficult to say.
Therefore, Mercedes-Benz Heavy Truck Company once again set its sights on the East, at this time, the ancient East, is radiating vitality.
"Steyr Company, stealing our business!" Thinking of this, Schultz was itching with hatred again.
At the end of last year, the automobile import and export company specially established by the big country in the East signed a contract for the transfer of heavy-duty vehicle manufacturing technology with the Austrian company Steyr. And this year, a large number of Steyr heavy truck parts have begun to be shipped to the eastern powers.
Although a full set of technology was transferred, in the early stage, it must have been assembled with accessories produced by Steyr Company, and the profits in the early stage made Mercedes-Benz red.
I knew that I should have agreed to come down in the first place!
"Mr. Schultz, it's useless to say these things now." Mia said to Schultz: "If you want to enter the market of the big eastern countries, you need to be fast. After all, time is running out for you. ”
"What? What went wrong? Schultz asked Mia.
"In Prairie City, a machine factory, where the automobile branch is in operation, has already begun to operate." Mia said.
"What, it's already begun? What products are they going to produce? Starting from scratch? That's absolutely impossible! Schultz said.
Heavy truck, is all vehicles, the highest technical content, want to build heavy trucks, it is not easy, Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks that how many years of precipitation, only to have the current product.
"I don't know very well about this." "However, when I was in a machine factory, I saw them purchase all kinds of auto parts into the car branch, including ZF steering machines, including Steyr diesel engines and ZF gearboxes, and I also saw them in the machine shop processing gears, which are not used in tanks, but gears on the rear axle of cars, and I used to secretly measure some gear data," Mia said. ”
What is Mia's identity?
From the very beginning of coming to the big country in the East, her identity has been determined, in addition to promoting MTU diesel engines, she will definitely collect some information, especially the relevant information in a machine factory.
As for Qin Zhenhua, he will definitely not fully trust Mia, after all, he is a German and works for a German company, a personal relationship is a personal relationship, and a job is a job, Qin Zhenhua can still distinguish clearly.
Whatever Mia sees, in fact, is what Qin Zhenhua wants the Germans to know, and through Mia's microphone, this information is transmitted.
It's just that I don't know if the smart Mia realizes this, now, everything she does is actually pushing one thing: put pressure on Mercedes-Benz, let Mercedes-Benz come to the door to find a machine factory to cooperate, otherwise, then their Mercedes-Benz company will really not be able to get anything.
Mia said, taking out a document and handing it to Schultz.
Although Schultz is engaged in sales, he still knows all kinds of data of their heavy truck products when selling.
Mercedes-Benz heavy truck, the most proud is its chassis technology, in the eastern country has been Steyr's engine and gearbox, there is only a Mercedes-Benz chassis is expected to be introduced.
But now, looking at this document, Scholz's face has changed dramatically.
"Shameless, shameless! Did they work with the Iron Horse Factory? ”
After the failure of negotiations on the introduction of Mercedes-Benz heavy truck technology, the eastern countries gave up the idea of introducing Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks, and the stimulated Iron Horse Factory began to use reverse mapping to imitate Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks.
Mercedes-Benz knows this, but they don't care, they think it's okay to measure some data and draw a gourd according to the scoop? Of course, this is not the case, the process is not mastered, the materials are not in place, and the production is defective.
The technical level of the Iron Horse Factory, they have investigated, it is not capable of this, even if it is built, the performance is much worse, and there is no competitiveness.
However, if it is a machine factory, it will be different, the technology of this factory is changing with each passing day!
"If they produce heavy trucks according to our technology, then we will definitely not let go of a machine factory!" Schultz said.
This is the most embarrassing, just like a certain Thai moved his Porsche to a European auto show, and then a bunch of Porsche experts came to see it, and the mood was probably like this.
Last time, I didn't choose the Iron Horse Factory, but chose a machine factory, because the Iron Horse Factory was mapping and copying their Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks, and they would not cooperate with such a factory.
Looking at the data of those parts, Schultz knew that it was used on the Mercedes-Benz axle that Mercedes-Benz was proud of, and the data was exactly right.
How can this be!
"It shouldn't be a heavy truck." Mia said: "Up to now, there is still no special equipment such as body-in-white electrophoresis for the cab in the automobile branch, and they should not be able to build the cab, and if they do, the quality will be very poor, which is not in line with the style of a machine factory." ”
A heavy truck, there must be a cab! Qin Zhenhua's vision is very high, as long as he builds, he must make the best.
"Not a heavy truck? What is that? Schultz muttered: "What else can this kind of part be used for, if it is not on a heavy truck?" ”
Mia shook her head, "I don't know. ”
