Chapter 212 The topic of building a car slowly emerged

There is no absolute relationship between OEMs and suppliers.

More often than not, the cooperation between the two sides is a game process.

However, on the whole, Party A will definitely be stronger and more proactive.

But in the process of cooperation between BYD and Nanshan, the situation is even more different.

It's no wonder that Liang Chuanqing has doubts.

"If Nanshan really builds a car, it is indeed possible to build it better than us."

Wang Fu didn't listen to this remark, so he didn't quibble there.

"But I don't think Nanshan will consider building a car in the next five years."

"Their gearbox business is now on the right track, and other parts are opening up the market."

"It can be said that the parts business is the main source of profit for Nanshan."

"If they choose to enter the field of vehicle manufacturing, not to mention whether they can succeed, what they lose alone is not acceptable to Nanshan now."

"Think about it, if Nanshan really built a car, would we still buy engines and transmissions from them?"

"Whether it's the Great Wall or Chang'an, will they continue to choose in-depth cooperation with Nanshan?"

"Except for a small number of parts, Nanshan's QCD level far exceeds that of peers, and everyone may not give up."

"For most of the parts, as long as you can find other similar manufacturers, I am afraid that everyone will choose to cooperate with other manufacturers."

"After all, once Nanshan chooses to build a car, various vehicle companies will have a very deep fear of him."

"Especially when their models compete with the models of various car companies, this kind of jealousy will be more serious."

Wang Fu analyzed this, and Liang Chuanqing couldn't help but nodded.

Indeed, this is the truth.

But what if the parts of Nanshan are really stronger than other manufacturers in the industry?

Will everyone give up or not give up when the time comes?

Of course, he wouldn't ask directly.

Instead, he asked a different way and said, "Mr. Wang, logically speaking, this is indeed the case." However, Aisin and Denso are also industries owned by Toyota, but whether it is Ford and GM, or Honda, they all have deep business dealings with Aisin or Denso. ”

"If Nanshan can be like Aisin or Denso in the future, wouldn't you also consider building a car?"

Although Liang Chuanqing thinks that Nanshan is unlikely to achieve such a scale as Denso.

But the development momentum of Nanshan can be seen by anyone.

"If you can really achieve that scale, the profits of the parts industry will be enough for them to live well, in fact, whether to make cars or not, the significance is not so great."

"Besides, even if it gets to that point, it will be years later."

"At that time, BYD's own engine and gearbox must have been developed."

"We have more options to face the future."

As soon as Wang Fu said this, Liang Chuanqing naturally didn't want to say anything more.

Otherwise, it will become a simple matter of finding fault.

"Then I will maintain close communication with them during this time, and discuss new solutions in a timely manner if there is a problem."

……

When BYD's people were discussing today's meeting, Nanshan also held a meeting immediately after Wang Fu and the others left.

At this time, whether it is Ji Hua or Pan Jinxing, or Zeng Tingting and Luo Hongxing, it is much more direct to ask questions.

After all, if you don't put forward the problem in time, then the big boss will make a decision and push it down, and if there is a big problem in the middle, someone will come out to take the blame.

"Mr. Cao, our company still lacks a technical expert who is proficient in engine research and development, and there is no way to coordinate the overall development, and this problem needs to be solved as soon as possible."

Ji Hua has been studying gearboxes all his life.

Although he also has a certain understanding of engines because of the reasons for matching with engines, he is certainly not to the extent that he can preside over the research and development of engine projects.

"It is true that one person needs to coordinate the overall situation, otherwise there are many people who need to coordinate in all aspects, and the promotion efficiency will be very low."

Although Pan Jinxing knows that the engine research and development project has little to do with him, as the vice president of the company and the person in charge of the design and transformation center, he is still very concerned with the engine project.

"Domestic enterprises have accumulated relatively little experience in engine research."

"It's not so easy to find an expert who can lead our brand new project."

Liu Youmei, director of the Ministry of Personnel and General Affairs, also stood up to express her opinions at this time.

When the time comes, she will definitely be responsible for the recruitment.

However, this kind of accurate expert recruitment is very difficult to carry out if there is no one to recommend and there is no headhunter to cooperate.

"I do know some people who are engaged in engine research and development at Ford, and some of them are Chinese."

"However, I am afraid that there are not many people who are proficient in the overall design of the engine, and they are more involved in the overall testing of the engine and the development of individual parts."

Luo Hongxing, as the vice president of production poached from Ford, gave his own proposal for the day.

With Nanshan's current strength, the price of digging people can barely be afforded.

Even if it's poaching people from the United States.

Of course, individual experts can afford it.

If all employees are paid so highly, it will definitely not be able to support it.

"Mr. Luo, you can contact those experts you know first to see if the other party is willing to come."

"In addition, Minister Liu also tried to contact some managers of companies such as Aerospace Mitsubishi and Dongan Power to see if there were suitable talents."

"We don't necessarily need to find experts in engine development, but experts who are proficient in engine assembly and testing are also needed."

"Even if you have someone who is proficient in engine construction, assembly and testing, you can basically meet the demand."

"After all, even so-called experts can't be proficient in every part."

Cao Yang can't say that he can also become an expert who is proficient in engines.

After all, it's hard to explain.

"That's right, as long as there is no problem with the structure, all parts are involved, and then adjusted in combination with the test situation, a qualified engine can be produced."

Ji Hua thought about the research and development process of the gearbox at the beginning, and felt that what Cao Yang said was quite reasonable.

"In terms of theoretical research on engines, the resources of various universities should be relatively sufficient, and I think we can also consider how to use those resources in this regard."

When Pan Jinxing mentioned this, Cao Yang couldn't help but nodded.

Engaging in theoretical research, the level of various universities in China is sometimes quite good.

Now I just need a pretense to let Nanshan's engine lead its peers in a relatively normal and reasonable form.

"Domestic universities have indeed made some achievements in theoretical research."

"Let's go back and contact Lingnan Institute of Technology, Beijing Institute of Technology and Jida University, and set up some joint research projects on engines with each other, so that they can provide us with theoretical support."

Cao Yang agreed to Pan Jinxing's proposal without any hesitation.

In these years, it doesn't cost much money to find colleges and universities to engage in theoretical cooperation research.

"In addition, the current situation in Yangcheng is a little different from previous years, and I think everyone has heard some news."

"I plan to carry out an engine project in the next six months, and the entire Nanshan Industrial Park will be operated in a closed production mode as much as possible."

"Taking the opportunity of studying engines, we have also developed our related equipment."

"For example, various processing machine tools and some assembly equipment, we try our best to achieve in-house production, so that our engine assembly line has become the most efficient engine line in China."

"At the same time, the Transmission Division has also begun to consider the research of a new generation of 8AT transmissions, and even the theoretical research of 9AT and 10AT can be carried out."

"In the future, our Nanshan Technology Co., Ltd. will become the most powerful parts company in China."

"I also hope that at this time, all employees can keep up with the pace of development of the company as much as possible......

It's January 2003 now, and now it's time to start the research of the engine project and engage in a closed battle, which is logically completely in the past.

Concentrate on doing great things, and the research and production of engines are now major events in Nanshan.

Even due to the tight schedule, the assembly line of the engine needs to be considered in advance at the same time, and then the assembly is adjusted.

Otherwise, it will not be able to catch up with large-scale mass production this year.

If it were so easy to research an engine, BYD wouldn't need to come to Nanshan for help.

There are so many domestic independent brand car companies, and there is no need to purchase engines.

"Mr. Cao, if this is the case, the company's investment is very huge."

"When we have the engine and gearbox, can we consider simply producing our own cars?"

Ji Hua's earth-shattering statement immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Produce your own car?

It seems like an attractive idea.

After all, the popularity of auto parts companies is not as good as that of OEMs in any case.

One is TO C and the other is TO B.

Influence is not a hierarchy at all.

"Professor Ji, if we directly produce cars, will anyone be willing to ask us to buy gearboxes in the future?"

"Even if someone buys the gearbox, what about the bearings?"

"What about the other parts you're working on?"

Zeng Tingting heard this, and immediately stood up to express her opposition.

As the head of the sales department, she absolutely does not support Nanshan to produce cars by herself.

At least not for now.

Besides, as far as she knows now, except for those joint ventures, most of the domestic independent brands do not earn as much money as Nanshan every year.

The models produced by independent brands are generally relatively low-end, and the profit margin is very low.

In this case, it is better to make money by selling parts.

"What Minister Zeng said is indeed a big problem, and our company's parts business has been considered a success."

"But if you are engaged in automobiles, you can't sell them well if you can do a good job of the whole vehicle."

"There's a lot of uncertainty here."

"I think there are a lot of domestic auto companies."

"For example, the United States, as the world's largest automobile market, has several times the annual sales volume of Huaxia, but the number of other car companies is only a fraction of that of Huaxia."

"In this case, it is not necessarily appropriate for us to choose to produce cars."

"It's better to be a parts giant like Bosch and Magna all the time."

Luo Hongxing also stood up to express support for Zeng Tingting's opinion.

The things that need to be considered are completely different from those that are engaged in parts.

If the parts can be done well, the whole vehicle may not be able to sell well.

"There is no need to discuss this topic, and the company has no plans to produce complete vehicles in the next five years."

"Let's just do a good job in the parts business first."

"Around the engine project, each department formed a project team as soon as possible, and I personally served as the project leader to make the research and development work move as soon as possible."

Naturally, it is impossible to do everything in one meeting.

But at least in the general direction, we have unified everyone's understanding.

The next thing is to roll up your sleeves and work hard.

……

Nanshan has recruited people on a large scale again.

However, this time it is not fresh college students who are recruited, but social recruitment.

Basically, as long as the past resume meets the requirements, after two rounds of telephone interviews, you will be notified directly to join the company.

This speed is definitely very exaggerated.

Originally, Cao Yang thought that the number of employees in Nanshan would exceed 10,000 only after college students joined the company in the summer of 2003.

But this spring, that number easily broke through.

Nanshan's method makes the headhunters happy.

After all, there is no way to recruit qualified candidates for some key positions simply by relying on others to actively submit resumes for screening.

This is where the importance of headhunting comes in.

Headhunters specialize in talent recruitment, have a wealth of contacts and resources, and can quickly find talents who meet the requirements of the enterprise.

Compared with self-recruitment, recruiting talents through headhunting can shorten the recruitment cycle, reduce recruitment costs, and improve recruitment efficiency.

In addition, headhunters will provide professional recruitment suggestions and solutions according to the needs and circumstances of enterprises to help enterprises better recruit.

In this wave, several headhunting companies cooperating with Nanshan can be said to have won hemp.

"Manager Yue, the squad leader and department leader on the aerospace Mitsubishi engine assembly line, as long as you can dig it up, the salary will be doubled directly."

"We want as many people as we want. In addition, we are also responsible for the technical personnel in charge of assembly process design. ”

Liu Youmei was also busy and crazy during this time.

Although some jobs can be arranged for the following people to do.

But there are some things that she needs to decide.

"Liu Bu, the personnel of the engine factories of Yangcheng Honda and Modu Volkswagen, do you want them?"

Yue Rui was recruiting personnel in Zhang Luo Nanshan during this time, and he was more active than Liu Youmei.

"If you can poach people from the engine factories of Yangcheng Honda and other OEMs, it will be great."

"It's just that their salary itself is not low, unless it is really excellent, otherwise we can't offer a higher salary than double."

As the head of the Personnel and General Affairs Department, Liu Youmei reduced the cost of personnel recruitment, which is naturally one of the assessment indicators.

Otherwise, every position has an annual salary of one million, and you still have to worry about not being able to recruit people?

"I'm trying to give it a try."

"Nanshan is thriving now, and many people can notice."

"For many people, they are very much thinking about the company's development prospects in addition to salary."

Yue Rui said this, and Liu Youmei naturally had no opinion.

She only cares about the end result.

The fee standard of the headhunting company is determined according to the salary level of the talent position, and the higher the position, the higher the fee standard.

Let a headhunter recruit a person, and almost pay this person's salary for three or five months as the cost of headhunting, which is not a small amount of money at all.

Let the other person work hard and adapt to it.
