Li Huarong is the deputy director of the purchasing department of Yangcheng Honda, and Cao Yang naturally knows him.

However, he doesn't like to run relationships in person, so the two sides are not particularly familiar.

"Li Ministry, our molds are all sold to the outside world."

"Of course, in the case of limited production capacity, we will give priority to our partners."

Regarding the question raised by Li Huarong, Cao Yang gave the answer without any hesitation.

Before the Nanshan Industrial Park was put into operation, the production capacity of the mold center was already relatively saturated.

After all, it has received a lot of orders for Chuncheng Stamping, Chuncheng Sihuan Factory and Xifeng Die Punching.

Now there is still some pressure to eat the order of the new Accord.

A model, whether you sell 1,000 or 10,000 per month, the number of molds required is basically the same.

Therefore, don't look at the domestic automobile production is far less than that of later generations, but the demand for molds is actually not low.

After all, there are still relatively few qualified automobile mold manufacturers, and business is even better.

It was like a mold factory in later generations, and the competition was as fierce as buying vegetables in the vegetable market.

How much is a ton of TDM mold.

How much is a ton of TRF mold.

To a certain extent, the cost of the mold is directly quoted according to the weight of the mold.

This scene is completely unimaginable to the current Li Huarong and Lu Xiangyang.

"How do you understand the priority supply to the partner?"

Li Huarong is also a smart person, and he asked the key point at once.

"Li Bu, you also know that in addition to producing molds, we in Nanshan also produce presses."

"For suppliers who use our presses, we always give priority to ensuring their mold supply."

"For example, whether it is Huaqiang Factory or Chuncheng Sihuan Factory, they are all objects that we give priority to ensuring the supply of molds."

Cao Yang didn't go around in circles, and told Nanshan's strategy very bluntly.

"Xiao Lu, the stamping manufacturers in the industry such as the Spring City Fourth Ring Factory, you can also work with the technical department to do some research."

"Look at how their equipment is being used, how their molds are being used, and how well they are doing with the quality of their parts."

"In this way, we can better convince the people at the Honda Research Institute to accept our proposal."

Li Huarong obviously supports Huaqiang Factory and Nanshan.

Otherwise, Lu Xiangyang would not have been allowed to conduct such a research.

To put it bluntly, it is impossible for the Spring City Fourth Ring Plant to become the main supplier of Yangcheng Honda, and even the possibility of entering the supply system is very low.

However, through the investigation of the Spring City Fourth Ring Factory, we can further understand how Nanshan's press and mold technology is.

So as to indirectly know whether the strength of Huaqiang Factory is really as strong as the paper introduction.

"Ministry Li, I just exchanged business cards with the head of the purchasing and sales department of the Chuncheng stamping factory, and I will arrange a trip to Chuncheng next week to find out their situation."

In the face of the instructions of the top leader, Lu Xiangyang naturally did not dare to make any discounts.

Li Huarong has the right to get him promoted and raised.

"Li Bu, in fact, we can not only sell molds to the outside world, but also the presses can be sold to the outside world."

"I heard that the equipment of Yangcheng Aiji and Yangcheng Apex will not be in place until next year, in fact, you can consider using our Nanshan press, which is not only cheaper but also has a much faster delivery cycle."

"The launch date of the new Accord may be mentioned on the premise."

With such a good opportunity, Cao Yang naturally wants to sell his own press.

In the past, except for the 600-ton PRG press, which had a production record, the other presses were still on PPT.

It's different now.

In the Huaqiang factory, more than a dozen Nanshan presses are lined up, and they are producing parts "dang" and "dangdang".

"Mr. Cao, the equipment selection of suppliers is mainly due to their own internal selection of suitable equipment manufacturers based on various factors of QCD, and our influence on them is relatively limited."

Lu Xiangyang was afraid that Li Huarong would take over this job in a big way, and then his pressure would be great.

So without waiting for Li Huarong to speak, he quickly interjected.

"Lu Department, what you said also makes sense."

"Which equipment manufacturer to choose is mainly the supplier's own consideration."

"However, Yangcheng Aiji and Yangcheng Aipark now only need one customer of Yangcheng Honda, and their establishment is also to serve the development of Yangcheng Honda."

"The use of domestic presses and domestic molds can further reduce costs while ensuring the profits of Yangcheng Aiji and Yangcheng Apex."

"The most important thing is to increase the actual localization rate."

Cao Yang mentioned the word "actual localization rate", and Lu Xiangyang and Li Huarong were a little touched.

In the past few years, the localization rate threshold has been set for domestic models of joint ventures.

Models with a localization rate of less than 40% will be subject to tariffs based on imported models.

This is a result that all joint ventures cannot stand it.

So everyone has been working hard in the past few years.

Basically, there is no problem with the 40% target.

But sometimes a part seems to have been made domestically, and if you investigate it deeply, it's another matter.

For example, if you import components from abroad and then assemble them in domestic factories, the parts will be counted as localized when counting.

However, if you investigate it deeply, only the assembly of this part has been localized.

Of the 200 yuan parts, only 40 yuan may be localized, and the other 160 yuan are imported.

Although now the customs and other departments are not bothering about this problem.

But no one knows if people will be entangled one day.

Therefore, further increasing the actual localization rate is a new topic that has begun to emerge in the past two years.

"Mr. Cao, what you think, I will talk to the people of Yangcheng Aiji and Yangcheng Aipark."

"However, the procurement of final equipment and molds is still dominated by them."

"Find an opportunity, you can also visit each other's companies to deepen their understanding of each other, so as to have more opportunities for cooperation."

As soon as Li Huarong said this, Cao Yang felt that the goal had basically been achieved.

He didn't expect to put all his hopes on Yangcheng Honda anyway.

As long as they can exert their influence appropriately, the rest depends on Nanshan's own ability.

"Thanks to Li Bu, I believe that there will be a win-win result in the end."

"When you have time, you can also come to Nanshan to visit, our factory is changing every day."

Although Cao Yang knows very well in his heart that Yangcheng Honda cannot be Nanshan's most important customer, there are still some businesses that can be done.

After all, the Huaqiang factory can affect the pace of Honda's direct suppliers to enter China, and there will be no chance for Nanshan at that time?

You must know that Honda's parts companies are not as competitive as Toyota's subordinate companies.

At that time, Nanshan's product QCD is in full lead, and the technology still has advantages, it depends on whether the other party can still hold on.
