Text Chapter 819 The Russians¡¯ own brand

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Russia's industry has inherited the legacy of the former Soviet Union, and it can be said that it is ahead of China, but that is reflected in the heavy industry that does not count input and output, and the defense industry. In terms of light industry and fine processing, these have always been  The shortcomings of Russian industry.  ([] )

    For example, in terms of automobile engines, the surprising processing methods required now, and the machine tools for fine processing, Russian automobile companies really have nothing to praise.

    If you want Russia to make a heavy-duty off-road vehicle with high power and no regard for fuel consumption, this may be their strength, but if you want them to make a family car engine with low noise, low vibration, and fuel economy,  This is really not their strong suit, and in terms of transmission manufacturing, Russia, like China, has always been choked by large foreign companies.

    ¡° Only China¡¯s Huayang Power is willing to provide such top-notch automobile engines and transmissions in the civilian field to Russia. Other foreign-funded enterprises are basically willing to take them over, even in assembly mode.

    So Jin Xiaoqiang estimated that Volga must provide himself with more engines and transmissions, and then use them in other aspects.

    Sure enough, after hearing Jin Xiaoqiang's question, Palyugin and Mohaylov both looked embarrassed, especially Mohaylov, a big boss who had worked his way up from a worker to his current position as a manager.  Some of the faces turned red, obviously quite embarrassed.

    However, as the senior vice president of Volga, Palyugin quickly adjusted. He is obviously an outstanding talent who has been tested by office politics for a long time.

    "Uh Okay. Then I'll tell the truth. Actually, the head office hopes to produce a series of independent models. We have also done relevant designs, but in terms of engines and transmissions, we still have  Some technologies are lacking. So we hope to get technical support from Huayang Power"

    Paliu Jin is quite straightforward, because he found that he can't do anything if he is not straightforward. This Jin Xiaoqiang is notoriously difficult to deal with. If he annoys him and messes up this transaction, then he can't go back.  It's hard to explain, so it's better to just tell him the truth.

    Oh, that¡¯s what happened.  The relationship is like letting yourself provide them with engines and transmissions, and then they can assemble their own cars.

    Jin Xiaoqiang understood their intention, which was similar to his original guess. In fact, many domestic joint venture automobile companies are also thinking about doing this, such as FAW and SAIC.  They all once wanted the foreign car companies they cooperated with to provide technology transfer, but unfortunately they were all rejected coldly in the end.

    In the end, there was nothing to do. FAW simply obtained a complete set of technology from Mazda and built its own Pentium. Later, it even plagiarized some of Volkswagen's technology.  It's a pity that it ended on bad terms.

    After being rejected, SAIC simply purchased a Rover from the UK for their own use, and later obtained their Buick technology from General Motors.

    ¡°However, they all paid a heavy price for this. These are the painful history of China¡¯s automobile development that they experienced in their previous lives.

    Now Russia wants to make its own democratic brand of cars, which is understandable when you think about it. After all, it turns out that it is a world power, but its national self-esteem is a little stronger. This is because the most sold in the market every year is  Lada can tell.

    Although that car is really not that good, it still uses the technology and chassis of the Fiat 124 from the 1960s, but it still exists in this market, which shows the Russians' love for domestic products.

    Now Volga wants to launch its own brand of products for the people of its own country and want to get a share of the market. This is understandable. After all, people like Lada, although Huayang Dynamics' products are very popular on the market.  Best-selling, but if they can get engines and transmissions similar to those of Huayang Power models, then I believe people will still be more willing to choose products of the Lada brand when making choices.

    "Well, since you want to develop your own brand, how are you preparing the infrastructure?"

    Jin Xiaoqiang asked casually. Seeing that Jin Xiaoqiang did not refuse, Paliu Jin felt that there was still hope for the matter, so he quickly introduced Jin Xiaoqiang.

    "We have made sufficient preliminary preparations to launch new products. Our focus this time is to launch products under the two brands of Eri and Lada. We are already contacting design teams around the world, hoping that they can give us  Designing new cars, we also contacted Japanese businesses and purchased manufacturing technology and painting equipment from them.?We have also purchased production lines from France, and for welding we will use German goods.  .  .  "

    Palyukin talks endlessly about this project. It is obvious that they attach great importance to this project.

    "For the Lada model, we prefer small cars, that is, compact models, while for Yiri, we position this model as a mid-sized car"

    "Hey, the market positioning is pretty clear," Jin Xiaoqiang thought to himself as he listened, but the situation in later generations seems to be that only Lada is still selling well, and as for that so-and-so Yiri, it seems to be an ugly death!

    Jin Xiaoqiang recalled the car sales in Russia that he had seen in his previous life. After the financial crisis broke out, especially in 2009, the car sales in Russia could be described as a disaster. That year, the car sales in Russia were  The 50% decline was, of course, due to the financial crisis that hit Russia hard.

    However, in 2010, the Russian automobile market seemed to have a strong rebound, rising by 30% in one year. In the following years, it rose by double-digit percentages almost every year.  .

    So if you ask Jin Xiaoqiang to expand investment in the Russian automobile joint venture at this time, he will definitely be unwilling to do so, but if you want to provide some engines and transmissions to Volga, this deal can be considered.

    "Okay, what type of engine and transmission do you want?"

    Jin Xiaoqiang asked, in fact, this is not another ckd model, but what is different from ckd's pure component assembly model is that there will no longer be Huayang Power's shares in the new factory, and they are here  In this transaction, it will just act as a supplier, providing engine and transmission parts.

    For Jin Xiaoqiang, he is really unwilling to increase investment in Russia due to long-term considerations, especially in automobiles.

    This market is indeed big enough, but it also has its own weaknesses, and the country's policies cannot guarantee it. Jin Xiaoqiang is unwilling to invest too much here when the political future is unclear.

    Moreover, although Huayang Power's production capacity has expanded a lot, the next few years will be the time for domestic automobile companies to share the cake. During that time, it is the time to lay a solid foundation in the country, strive to expand the market, and strive for the largest market share.  Xiaoqiang doesn't have time to talk nonsense in Russia.

    And according to his understanding of the world's automobile market in later generations, the market growth rate in Russia is not as great as that in Brazil. After all, Brazil is a newly opened virgin land, so why should he spend too much effort here?

    But it¡¯s okay not to expand, but you can still consider acting as a bulk supplier.

    Palyujin and Mohaylov did not expect Jin Xiaoqiang to be so easy to talk to. You must know that they had talked with other car companies before, such as Volkswagen, Ford, General Motors, Toyota, Honda, etc., but no one was willing to give them  Supply.

    In the end, even Citro?n, the world¡¯s second-rate damn company, was unwilling to provide them with engines and transmissions. Damn it, it seems that at the critical moment, the Chinese people are their friends.

    "In terms of Lada models, we hope to obtain the engines and transmissions of the current Lavida models. In fact, Mistkin, we can also produce such engines and transmissions ourselves, but out of respect for our partners, we decided to get them from you.  Import here.¡±

    Palyujin said with shame, in fact, this Lavida is the lowest level compact car under Huayang Power, so it would be best to transplant its classic 1.6l engine and hy200 transmission.

    And compared with turbocharging and in-cylinder direct injection technology, the engine and transmission technology of this car are simpler, making it a good copycat. Volga has actually tried it, but in the end, their copycat engine and Huazhai  Compared with Yang Dynamics' original products, they have loud noise, large vibration, high fuel consumption and short lifespan. Of course everyone knows what is going on. Isn't it because they are not good at fine processing?

    As for the transmission, they also encountered the same situation. The fine machining was not up to par, which really killed people. However, this could not be improved in a short time, so he could only brag with Jin Xiaoqiang here. 13  , hoping to bluff the other party and leave a good impression on the other party.

    You see it¡¯s not that we can¡¯t, it¡¯s that we don¡¯t want to do it.

    Jin Xiaoqiang curled his lips, but did not expose Palyujin's trick. After all, during the negotiation process, any party can use such deceptive talk, and as long as it does not endanger his own actual interests, he can accept it.

    "Okay, on this condition, I can??Agree.  "

    "Anyway, as long as they can't produce it themselves in a day, they have to rely on their own supply. As long as they can pay the bills on time, there will be no problem
