Chapter 124: Although the routine is old, the effect is as good as ever
Today, he followed Cao Yang to participate in the commissioning ceremony of Huaqiang Factory, and Zhang Fugui felt a lot of pressure.
The press of Nanshan Technology Co., Ltd., in addition to its own use, so far, only Huaqiang Factory and Chuncheng Stamping are in use.
If he was asked to go to the Spring City Fourth Ring Factory or the West Wind Die Punch to sell the press, he would still have some confidence.
After all, these are domestic enterprises, or state-owned enterprises.
When purchasing imported equipment, you need to face a variety of audits, and the procedures are a bit troublesome.
But buying domestic equipment is much simpler.
But now Cao Yang intends to expand the press market to Yangcheng Aiji and Yangcheng Aipake, which are wholly-owned enterprises in Dongying.
All of a sudden, he became unsure.
For a long time, when these Toei companies choose presses, they either use Aida or buy Komatsu.
Even if there is an occasional exception, it will not be a domestic brand in China.
"Mr. Cao, I learned that foreign-funded enterprises such as Yangcheng Aiji are generally on par with the factories of the headquarters when they import equipment."
"Whose equipment is used by the headquarters, when building a factory in Huaxia, we refer to whose equipment is used."
"This way we can get the factory into production as quickly as possible."
"If we want to sell the press to them, I'm afraid it's very difficult."
Zhang Fugui didn't want to shirk responsibility, but felt that it was necessary for Cao Yang to recognize the reality and lower expectations.
"You're right."
"However, because of this, don't you think this is the best opportunity to suppress Aida and Komatsu, these Toei press manufacturers?"
"If even the stamping factory wholly owned by Dongying is using our presses, even if it is only partially used, this is a very good advertisement, right?"
As soon as Cao Yang asked rhetorically, Zhang Fugui immediately had nothing to say.
The benefits of selling the press to Yangcheng Aiji and Yangcheng Aipak are really countless.
"Both suppliers have shares in Honda, and Honda is also their majority shareholder."
"Their investment in domestic plants and equipment should also be discussed with Honda's people."
"If we really want to do this business, then it's best to find a way from Yangcheng Honda's Dongying people."
Seeing Cao Yang's attitude so resolute, Zhang Fugui immediately abandoned his original idea and began to think about what to do next.
"You're right!"
"We just need to find a suitable entry point now, so that the Dongying people of Yangcheng Honda can objectively review our press and mold technology."
"Simply fighting for technology and cost, we definitely don't have to worry about losing to Aida and Komatsu."
Cao Yang is also constantly thinking about how to convince the Dongying people of Yangcheng Honda.
In 2001, relations between the two countries were quite good.
They will not give up cooperation simply because Nanshan is a Chinese enterprise.
"Mr. Cao, can you consider the way to attract Ford and General Motors?"
When it comes to the entry point, Zhang Fugui's first reaction is the original pickup appearance map.
"Exterior drawing......
This time, Cao Yang did not directly refuse.
For a long time, he was actually reluctant to use the exterior drawing.
Because the appearance of a car designed by a person is so varied and so avant-garde, it is sometimes difficult to explain clearly.
One or two models are okay, which can be understood as a flash of inspiration.
Everyone can accept it.
If it is the same as the wholesale business, not only will the value of the appearance picture decrease, but everyone will also have a great curiosity about Cao Yang.
When the time comes, dig deeper into the things of Nanshan over the years, and you will find more and more bugs.
This is something that Cao Yang does not want to face.
The most important thing is that all kinds of impactful models are taken out in advance, which will have a certain impact on the pattern of the international automobile market.
For Cao Yang, his biggest advantage is to know the development of the general trend of the world.
If that changed a lot, it would be a huge loss for him.
"The equipment center is one of the focuses of the company's future development, and it can even be said that in the future, the company will take the road of parts industry on one leg and the road of equipment on one leg."
"So it's worth investing more resources."
"It is of great significance to our equipment center to be able to win the press orders for Yangcheng Aiji and Yangcheng Aipak."
Zhang Fugui saw that Cao Yang was a little hesitant, and added a fire to the side.
"What you say makes sense, I'll think about it again."
Cao Yang was a little moved.
However, he is still struggling with what model to take.
Later generations of Fit, Accord and Civic, CRV all have very classic styling.
Any one of them is very capable of playing.
But he didn't want to come out with a model that could fight.
"There is a big gap between Honda and Toyota in Toei China."
"Now we can't even enter the supply system of Toyota in Spring City, and it would be a good thing if we could get Honda to add some blockage to Toyota."
As soon as Zhang Fugui said this, Cao Yang suddenly had an idea.
Wouldn't it be okay to make a model that is only popular in Dongying China?
This will not have much impact on the international automobile market, and it will allow Toyota to feel the pressure, and it can also achieve the goal of entering the press into foreign-funded enterprises.
Later, Honda's N-BOX left a very deep impression on Cao Yang.
This kind of product under the special policy of Dongying does not have any market at all after going abroad.
However, due to the support of taxes and other means, the sales of "K-car" such as N-BOX are very popular in Toei.
Take this thing out yourself, and use it as waste.
"In this way, you go and help make an appointment with the minister sent by Honda in the purchasing department of Yangcheng Honda, and I will go and meet him."
The linkage between procurement and design is very close.
Cao Yang now has no way to contact the personnel of the Honda Research Institute directly.
But the head of the purchasing department of Yangcheng Honda definitely has a way.
As for the appearance of the N-BOX, as long as you want to get it out, it doesn't take much time at all.
The last time I took out the appearance drawing, I used it on the Dongying people, and I must squeeze the value to the greatest extent.
……
Honda attaches great importance to the North American market, and they have never made pickup trucks, and even for the North American market, they are developing a pickup truck model called "Ridgeline" after it is launched.
For the F150, which is the hottest in the American market this year, they are naturally very concerned.
Vaguely, they also heard that the exterior drawings of this F150 were drawn by a designer in Huaxia.
If they hadn't heard more follow-up news, they were all ready to ask the Huaxia designer to help design a picture of the exterior of the pickup.
The price is negotiable!
Now the exterior designer of the F150 from Yangcheng Honda wants to cooperate with him, and the design director in charge of their styling immediately succumbs to Dongying and flies over.
Clearly, they were very interested in this collaboration.
He even began to fantasize about his own pickup truck fighting the F150 in North America.
As for the conditions for the Nanshan meeting, the Honda Research Institute has already held an emergency meeting to discuss it, as long as it is not too excessive, it is easy to say anything.
It seems that although Cao Yang's routine is old, the effect is as good as ever.
Of course, this kind of routine, Cao Yang thinks it is better to use it less in the future.
After the fifth watch, ask for a monthly pass~~
