"Mr. Cao, this time the comprehensive suppression of the United States has the greatest impact on Nanshan Automobile Group."

"I think it's also necessary to make a strong counterattack in the automotive industry, so that American companies can also feel the pain."

"Otherwise, every time they suppress us, they always feel that they can bully us unscrupulously."

"This time, we are going to make a few ruthless moves, which will directly make American companies such as General Motors and Ford Motor feel the pain."

Within the Nanshan Automobile Group, Cao Yang personally chaired a high-level meeting.

The meeting was attended by the heads of the subsidiaries and the senior management of the Group.

Nanshan Automobile Group is a big profiteer, contributing more than 100 billion yuan in profits every year.

"And these two companies are also important sources of profit for Modu Automobile Group and Changan Automobile."

Zeng Tingting, the person in charge, could also clearly feel some of Cao Yang's ideas, so she also began to put forward some specific plans.

So as long as there is profit, there must be a company that will do it.

Although Cao Yang can also ignore Yi Jia's thoughts, it will definitely be beneficial to find some steps for others to go down.

"Can we sue them?"

In the past two days, he also called Cao Yang several times, but Cao Yang did not answer once.

Besides, he was not wrong.

Otherwise, some models will be discontinued.

Now that the United States is targeting this big profit, Cao Yang must make some targeted moves.

"Especially in that part of the Changan Ford market, your people are the most aware of the advantages and disadvantages of each model."

"They're violating the basic trading contract, aren't they?"

As for a month's time, Murali will definitely ask the purchasing center to find replacement parts anyway.

"As long as we can seize a part of the market, we can basically make up for most of the losses."

Rao Yongxiang is ready to make a big move to break the confession.

"According to the policy of the United States, all American companies are not allowed to import any parts, equipment and other products from Nanshan Group in the future."

"I thought they were just going to protest and then silently accepted the fact."

"I'll call the president of General Motors and see how it's going on over there."

"As for the contract, there is indeed a force majeure clause in it, and if people have to talk about the policy of the United States, we may not be able to win the lawsuit in the end."

Compared with the situation that Changan Ford is about to stop production, the situation at Ford's headquarters is slightly better.

"I suggest that with the policy of the United States, we will directly cut off the supply of GM and Changan Ford from tomorrow, so that they will continue to produce without parts."

As the general manager of Nanshan Auto Parts, Dai Hanbiao also expressed his views clearly.

"But some of the other stocks are likely to be wasted."

"As for the parts that are specifically supplied to these two customers, they can be sold to the aftermarket in the United States through a third party in the future."

As soon as Jim said this, he directly silenced Austin.

"Mr. Yi, Changan Ford and Modu GM will definitely lead to a significant decline in production or even a complete shutdown due to parts supply problems during this time."

It's just that for a moment, he didn't know how to answer.

"That's true, but during this time, General Motors and Ford will definitely quickly switch our parts to other manufacturers for supply."

It would be strange if Yi Jia pretended not to know.

Even the gearboxes of some models are produced by Nanshan Gearbox.

"That's all there is to it."

"Exports to the United States are expected to stop soon."

He's a little helpless now.

"If you don't teach those companies in the United States some lessons, maybe there will be more disgusting tricks in the future."

As soon as the phone was connected, Yi Jia made a statement first.

"I didn't expect them to even want a buffer period, and they just cut us off."

"Especially if the lawsuit is fought in China, there is almost no hope of winning."

When an official letter stamped with the company's seal was sent to the General Purchasing Department of Modu Auto Parts from Nanshan Auto Parts, it was immediately chaotic.

"Now that our own brands have completely risen, the significance of their existence is very small."

"Behind this incident, people from General Motors and Ford Motor Corporation are also involved, and before the official announcement of the news in the United States, they have been working internally on the replacement of parts."

In the face of the suppression of the United States, the Nanshan Group will definitely fight back.

If the relationship is too rigid because of this matter, it is definitely inappropriate.

Cao Yang chatted with Yi Jia for a while, and then didn't continue to say much.

"Once we have a plan, we need to find a suitable new supplier to review production."

"Similarly, we will no longer supply relevant parts to Changan Ford and Modu GM."

In addition to such parts, various important parts such as ESP, high-pressure oil pumps, instruments, and touch screens are supplied by Nanshan Auto Parts on various models of Modu GM.

"Again, this saves a lot of trials."

Who knew it would suddenly turn out to be the way it is?

"After all, Changan Ford only has 50% of the shares, and in fact, they can't even get half of the profits in the industrial chain."

However, even if he said so, Cao Yang would definitely not change his mind.

After all, from tomorrow, the factories will start to shut down for a long time.

Although Chris was a little worried about this situation before, he had already started the preparation for the part changeover with the design early.

Knowing that they couldn't solve this problem, Changan Ford's people immediately reported to the Ford headquarters, saying that they would listen to the instructions of the headquarters.

"Even if it's a part that's already in the warehouse in the magic capital, it won't be shipped."

He's going to call Modu Automobile Group.

Therefore, if Nanshan auto parts start to stop supply today, then some models of Modu GM will have to start stopping production tomorrow, and at most two or three days later, all models will have to stop.

Of course, their own losses are even greater!

"Hey, there's no way, Boeing has united so many companies, and there are five corners/big floors behind it to coordinate, that is, we don't agree in the end, and this suppression plan will also be introduced."

"There are even some actions that people may have already started to implement."

"In this case, there is no need for us to earn the money in the last few months."

Of course, Nanshan Automobile Group is certainly not likely to change its decision because of their opinions.

Just when Cao Yang was busy talking on the phone, Nanshan Automobile Group was not idle.

【Dear Modu Automobile General Co., Ltd.:

There will even be a large number of netizens on the Internet who support this approach of Nanshan Automobile Group.

After all, the Nanshan Group was suppressed by the United States in all directions, and this matter has become known throughout the country.

……

"It is the pillar enterprise of China's economy, and it is a key enterprise that has mastered a large number of core technologies."

"Modu GM and Changan Ford both have domestic shareholders in them."

"In this way, we are indeed a little passive."

"Mr. Cao, according to the policy of the United States, it will be fully implemented on January 1 next year, right?"

Zeng Tingting has been in charge of sales business, and she knows a lot about this aspect.

Dong Shengnan, the head of finance, mentioned an issue that seems to be ignored by everyone.

If this suddenly falls, the impact on Changan Automobile Group will definitely be very huge.

At this time, quickly throw the pot out.

"General Motors and Ford are also involved in this US crackdown, even if they want to explain that they are innocent, it is not worth believing."

The content is much the same.

In fact, there is more of a relationship between them than a real friendship.

"Mr. Cao, Director Mi's reminder is very important, I think you can say hello to Mr. Yi and them in advance?"

In the past two years, Modu GM has been the sales champion of the Chinese automobile industry and has made a lot of money from the market.

There are a lot of parts that are not original parts of the manufacturer.

"I remember that the models of Xingchen Automobile were sold by Ford Motor in North America, and they should have made a lot of money from it every year."

Although the automotive industry has developed to the present, the inventory of all links has been controlled to a minimum as much as possible.

After all, there are still many business dealings between Nanshan Automobile Group and Changan Automobile and Modu Automobile.

Some of the parts have already been notified to other suppliers to start preparation.

"Yes, while eating the rice in the pot, I was doing the thing of smashing the pot."

But the costs are still ongoing.

"Mr. Cao, what the United States has done too much is too much."

And just when Austin and Jim were struggling, Changan Ford actually received contact letters from Nanshan Auto Parts, Nanshan Gearbox and other companies at the same time.

"If there is anything that needs help from Changan Automobile, you can speak at any time."

With a sigh in his heart, Austin knew that his comfortable days were over.

100% of Changan Automobile's passenger car engines and transmissions come from Nanshan Automobile Group, as do a large number of other parts on the car.

Since you are going to tear your face, you can naturally use any means.

"If Ford is involved in this incident, then it is indeed a bit excessive."

"There's no reason for us to solve all the troubles they caused, and we can't solve them."

Over the years, Nanshan Auto Parts has really not been cut off by any OEM.

"In terms of raw materials, most of them should be used for other parts."

Modu General can only reap the consequences and choose a new supplier to produce the corresponding parts first.

I knew that I had the opportunity to return to China last year, so I went back directly.

After all, some of the situations after the suppression of Nanshan Group have been discussed within the company before.

But he didn't expect Nanshan Automobile Group to be so rigid that he directly cut off the supply.

Do you really have to wait for the other party to be ready to switch parts before waiting for death?

Since we are ready to stop shipping to Modu GM and Changan Ford immediately, there is no need to wait.

The Nanshan Group has now been comprehensively suppressed by the United States, is it still not allowed to fight back?

"In addition to this, some of our suppliers also purchase materials and equipment from Nanshan Special Steel."

The aftermarket in the United States is still not quite the same as in China.

Jim felt like his head was getting bigger now.

The replacement of parts on the car often has to do various tests and match confirmation.

And Nanshan Automobile Group is the most affected sector among all groups, but there are shadows of Ford and General Motors behind this matter, so it is not surprising that Cao Yang wants to deal with Ford and General Motors.

But that doesn't mean it's not usable.

"It's really necessary to report to the headquarters as soon as possible."

"Mr. Yi, I won't tell you, there is really something related to Changan Automobile Group."

"For individual models, there is no way to complete the switch within a month, so you can only rely on the inventory of the dealer for another month or two."

Do you really think that other joint ventures and independent brand sales are dry rice?

At least for the next month, there is no need to worry about running out of parts.

But the real zero inventory is definitely unrealistic, whether it is the main engine factory or the supplier, there is more or less a large inventory of parts.

After all, such a big piece of fat meat will fly when you say it's flying, and if you want to say that it's not a pity at all, it must be fake.

However, when he said this, it was exactly in line with Cao Yang's thoughts.

As soon as Cao Yang said this, Yi Jia probably understood what was going on.

Changan Ford is now the company with the highest profit margin in Changan Automobile.

"I don't think there's a need to worry about this, because most of the products we sell are standard products, and they are not supplied separately to Ford and General Motors."

Especially now the United States is doing too much, as long as the public opinion is properly guided, this supply cut will not affect the reputation of Nanshan auto parts at all.

On the other hand, for imported parts, Ford will prepare more inventory by itself.

Mulally called Chris, the director of Ford's purchasing center, into his office to see what he could do.

After thinking about these questions clearly, Yi Jia is no longer entangled.

"Before we cut off the supply to them, did we say hello to the people of Modu Automobile Group and Changan Automobile?"

As soon as Cao Yang said this, Chang'an's heart immediately chuckled.

Murali came from Boeing, so naturally he doesn't keep saying bad things about his former employer.

At such a critical juncture, which company dares to easily give the magic capital general emergency?

If it is really a company with a head iron, Nanshan Equipment can do something in the maintenance of the equipment and teach people to be a good person.

"As for the headquarters, we can only speed up the parts changeover."

As soon as Cao Yang said this, Yi Jia immediately said, "What is it?" As long as I can help, I will do my best. ”

Chris couldn't have thought of anything particularly good at this time.

And this has to be other hot stamping manufacturers have the relevant production capacity.

Regarding Zeng Tingting's proposal, Cao Yang naturally has no opinion.

"We will stop exporting all parts to General Motors and Ford in the future."

Considering some of the practices at headquarters, Austin knew that this time the relationship between the two sides was completely broken.

"This time is the best opportunity for Changan Automobile to seize the market."

"Chris, Nanshan Automobile Group has taken action, and they first cut off the supply of parts to Changan Ford."

So whether it is from the bottom of his heart, or in order to maintain the relationship between the two parties, Yi Jia's attitude is very cooperative.

"Although our sales with Modu GM and Changan Ford will quickly return to zero after the supply cut, the market of Modu GM and Changan Ford is likely to be snatched away by independent brand car companies such as Nanshan Hongqi."

The most important thing is that Huaxia's hot stamping manufacturers, more than eighty percent of the equipment are purchased from Nanshan equipment.

"Austin, why don't you report to the headquarters as soon as possible?"

"If there is a sudden supply cut, our own warehouses and production sites also have some finished products, semi-finished products and raw materials."

"The reaction of the Nanshan Group was more intense than we thought."

Nanshan auto parts are no exception.

"Anyway, with those policies in the United States, General Motors and Ford are definitely moving quickly to replace our solutions with parts from other suppliers."

As soon as the meeting ended, Cao Yang called Yi Jia of Changan Automobile.

"The situation of Chang'an Ford in Huaxia, we can only let them figure out as much as possible."

"We are very clear about the influence of Nanshan Group in China."

"Anyway, most of our models have a month or two in stock in each link."

Seeing that she seemed to have to make a decision, Mi Ying couldn't help but remind her beside her.

"Mr. Zeng is right, General Motors and Ford Motor, as the two largest car companies in the United States, have actually developed very fast in China in recent years."

It's just a hot-stamped part.

But for Nanshan auto parts, it can profit from it.

For some parts companies, the means of cutting off supply can be said to be self-destructive, basically tearing the face.

On the one hand, Nanshan Auto Parts does not supply as many parts to Ford Motor Headquarters as Changan Ford.

"Individual parts can also be considered for temporary transportation from the United States."

"We are bound to be retaliated against this time."

"Even if the quotation and other work are carried out in parallel, and all the parts are replaced in the end, it will take at least half a year."

But in the fiercely competitive market, after half a year, will there be anything going on in the magic capital?

Even if most of the content is omitted, it will be impossible for the magic capital to resume production in the next three months.

"It's just a little bit of a toss."

Now that there is suddenly no supply of parts, it is no wonder that they are not in a hurry.

"Let's see what the president's instructions are!"

Half a year later, there is a chance that the production line will be able to get back up and running.

"There are some things that can be executed immediately without having to do it right now if it is difficult."

"Jim, if we are now fully promoting the parts switching of Nanshan Auto Parts, when can we resume production at the earliest?"

For example, the hot stamping parts supplied by Yangcheng Huaqiang Group, the production and manufacturing time of this mold alone takes at least six months, even if it is overtime, it takes three months.

In this case, the other party's loss is great, right?

Left and right is just a matter of phone call and explanation.

Jim saw Austin's tangled face and couldn't help but persuade him.

As long as Changan Automobile can snatch a little market from Changan Ford, it will not be a loss this time.

Otherwise, it would take longer to invest in the corresponding hot stamping line.

Yi Jia sighed in her heart, knowing that this time she actually had no choice.

Obviously, Yi Jia also has a good study of the suppression policy of the United States.

Austin, as the general manager of Modu General Motors, also had a lot of dealings with Nanshan Group back then.

"As the largest auto parts company in China, we use a large number of Nanshan auto parts products for each model."

Zeng Tingting combined everyone's opinions and also put forward her own views.

"Nanshan Auto Parts is very resolute, and not a single part will be delivered."

Thank you for your continued support and help!

Due to well-known force majeure factors, we will not be able to continue to supply parts to your company from now on!

Nanshan Auto Parts strongly condemns the practice of the United States to disrupt normal business development......

Otherwise, life will not go on.

"Nanshan Auto Parts is still unwilling to continue to supply parts?

Affected by Toyota's JIT production model, various OEMs are doing their best to reduce inventory in each link.

Austin didn't care about what he had with Cao Yang at this time.

"Even the other party stopped in the export business without even sending us a contact letter."

Over the past decade, the two companies have worked together with a single nut plate......

Now the cooperation between the two sides has to come to an end, for which I deeply regret it! 】

"Austin, the situation is not optimistic."

"Boeing and they communicated with us beforehand, which can be regarded as buying us some time."

"Therefore, we Nanshan Auto Parts is also very supportive of cutting off the supply of GM and Changan Ford, so that GM and Ford will completely lose the Chinese market."

But where is this kind of thing so easy to do?

"If we want to cut off the supply, I suggest that we simply do it completely and cut off all the parts exported to General Motors and Ford."

"We also supply a large number of parts for these companies, and the overall sales will not only not decline, but may rise further."

"It may take at least a week just to figure out the current situation, and it may take another week or two to communicate solutions with the headquarters and Pan Asia."

If it's just Ford that's unlucky, it's certainly hard to accept.

But with other car companies such as General Motors and Chrysler facing the same situation, the situation is different.
