Chen Changchun brought some of the staff from the legal department and the technical department to Beijing to apply for a patent.
The production line of the minivan had also been adjusted, and the molds for various data had been made.
The raw materials and production parts of the car had already been contacted because more than 10,000 parts were needed to produce a car.
It was impossible for manufacturers to produce every component themselves, just like those large German and Japanese companies.
As long as the manufacturer had their own core three major technologies and related technologies, the other parts would all be used by other companies.
However, that was only for foreign car companies.
To put it nicely, it was called a car company. To put it bluntly, it was called an assembly factory.
That was because the domestic car companies used the three major parts from abroad and the car parts from the parts suppliers.
Car companies, on the other hand, assembled these things together and attached their own car logo.
Of course,
The only original feature of the domestic car was probably the appearance of the car.
However, no matter how good the appearance was, the domestic consumers still complained about the three big pieces.
After all, that was their technology.
Moreover, Lin Feng realized that the appearance of these domestic car companies was really not good. They were full of knockoff style.
"If it weren't for the high taxes to protect domestic cars, the entire country would have become the backyard of foreign car companies. The low-end market would have been occupied by them.”
And now,
The domestic car companies could only have an advantage in the market below 100,000 yuan. The market above 100,000 yuan was the market for joint ventures or imported cars.
Little did he know,
A Volkswagen Santana, an A-class sedan, with no specifications at all, actually dared to sell it at a starting price of 100,000 yuan. The most hateful thing was that if you wanted to pick up the car, you had to increase the price!
This was an A-class car.
Ordinary A-class cars, needless to say, Bora, Sagitar, and other domestic cars that were more simplified than foreign cars, basically had a starting price of 140,000 to more than 200,000.
There was no need to mention the B-class cars. The cheapest one would cost at least 200,000 yuan, and it was the kind with the lowest configuration that was not produced. It was just a gimmick to give you a price.
The real models on sale were all mid to low-end models that started at 230,000 yuan.
Just like that…
It was an ordinary civilian brand, not one of those luxury brands.
In addition to the German Volkswagen, the Japanese Kazufuru Ota was even more insane than the German Volkswagen. Not only was it heavily simplified, but the anti-collision steel beams of the car were also replaced with foam. The quality of the car frame was very poor, and the car shell was as thin as paper.
In order to promote their car, they even gave it a euphemistic name,'Energy Absorbement'!
Energy absorption was bullsh * t. It was all used to fool those Chinese consumers.
Moreover, some people believed that Japanese cars were fuel-efficient, durable, and didn't need to be repaired even if they drove for hundreds of thousands of kilometers.
Little did he know,
The car repair shops on the street mostly repaired Japanese cars. Even German cars were much fewer than his.
And the most hateful thing was that these car companies were earning money in China, but they treated Chinese consumers and foreign consumers differently.
The car had a safety hazard and needed to be recalled. The foreign country immediately took action and had a good attitude.
However, once they arrived in China, those car companies treated the domestic consumers as fools. They found all kinds of reasons and excuses to shirk off their cars. In short, unless it was absolutely necessary, they would not deal with these matters in China.
If the country was really forced to come forward, these car companies would try to fool them as much as they could, using the least cost to cover up the defects of their own vehicles.
They completely treated the domestic consumers as fools, but there were actually some people on the Internet who went to lick the boots of these foreign car companies.
Look,
This was a conscientious car company. If there was a problem, they would definitely solve it for you.
Sitting in front of his desk and looking at all kinds of information about other car companies on the Internet, Lin Feng felt a stifled feeling in his heart.
This was the result of unequal technology. Without technology, one could only be bullied and fooled by others!
"Just wait and see. One day, I'll make all of you car companies behave yourselves with your tails between your legs. You won't dare to fool the consumers of China anymore!”
Just as he was thinking, Jiang Yiyi suddenly rushed in without even knocking.
"Boss Lin, it's not good. Many of the parts manufacturers that we previously worked with are not willing to supply us.”
"Hmm? They had been working well together previously. Why were they suddenly unwilling to supply?”
"I don't know. These people's attitudes are very firm. In any case, they're unwilling.”
Lin Feng frowned. After that, he pondered for a moment and immediately understood.
There must be someone behind this, and who was this person?
A lump of fat meat appeared in his mind. It must be Liu Da who made a big fuss.
"Which companies are unwilling to supply us?”
Jiang Yiyi flipped through the notebook in her hand. It recorded the parts supplier who suddenly canceled the cooperation.
" Tiancheng Company, Linhai Company, Shangyuan Company..." Jiang Yiyi read out the names of seven or eight companies. These companies were mainly suppliers of seats, wheels, steering wheels, batteries, and other major parts.
The parts suppliers that Jiang Yiyi mentioned were relatively first-class in China. Not only did domestic car companies use their parts, but even joint venture companies and foreign car companies purchased their parts from China.
There was no reason.
It was cheap.
Moreover, these things were not high-tech parts. It was fine as long as the quality was not a problem.
"Alright, I got it. It seems that Big Head Liu is quite capable. He actually joined forces with so many companies to ban us.”
Big Head Liu's scheme was like a fool to Lin Feng.
He thought,
If these people joined forces, would they be able to stop the production of their own cars?
You're not the only company in the world that does this.
"Remember the names of these companies. From now on, all of Bao 'ao's car models are not allowed to use their parts. Also, contact other related companies. It doesn't have to be too large. Sign a new purchase contract and tell them that as long as the quality is guaranteed, Bao' ao's purchases will all be from their company.”
"Yes, CEO Lin!"
……
The efficiency of the purchasing department manager was very fast. Three days later, the new purchasing channels had all been changed. With Lin Feng's instructions, they specially looked for those suppliers that were not very big. Not only was the price negotiated lower than before, but after the purchasing department manager gave a promise, those suppliers expressed that they were absolutely assured of the quality.
This was because these small companies had already been suppressed by those big companies. They were almost out of breath and had very little room to survive.
Now that there was such a large purchase contract, as long as the quality was good, there would be a steady stream of orders in the future. They would definitely treat it seriously.
However…
The only thing that made these small companies angry was that the people from Baoao said that they had to pay a deposit for the first batch of goods and then hold down the payment for half a year. As long as the quality of the first batch of goods was good, all the subsequent orders would be paid before delivery. It was so domineering.
The CEOs of the parts manufacturers gritted their teeth and agreed to Baoao's request.
The reason why Lin Feng did this, other than to let those companies strictly control the quality of their products, the biggest reason was that he was short of money now!!
He was very short of money!
Therefore, he had no choice but to use this method to forcefully hold a batch of funds in his hands to use for the cost of production and the publicity expenses of the new car.
If one wanted to buy a good car, the early publicity was an indispensable part.
……
Finally, after waiting for about 10 days, the first trial production Wuling Hongguang went offline!
