Spring Breeze 1991

Yao Yuan said helplessly, "There is really no way to predict the launch time. BMW's situation is better. It is assembled and produced first, and then gradually localized. Such a process is relatively better for us to train workers."

"The situation of Xiangxiang Machinery is different. Buying back the production line does not mean everything will be fine. We need to cultivate upstream and downstream supporting factories. In order to speed up, we have to order engines and gearboxes from the Czech Republic. At present, we do not have the production capacity of these two core components. .”

Yang Sheng couldn't help but said, "Mr. Yao, I remember that when you bought the production line, you bought it together with engine technology and gearbox technology, and you also hired a lot of technicians."

"Yes, we have more than 2000 foreign technicians and workers from the Czech Republic and other Eastern European countries. Even so, it is not a matter of a day or two to realize the production of engines and gearboxes. Our material and process shortcomings are relatively obvious. .” There was helplessness in Yao Yuan’s tone.

Spending money alone is not enough, but not spending money is absolutely impossible. Yao Yuan has no other way except to spend money to recruit technology and talents.

He said to Xia Honghua, "If the country can provide support, of course, I can solve the funds myself. In terms of the technical team and the supporting factories, we negotiate one by one, and the negotiations are very hard. It will also take time to transform the technology to reach the level of producing qualified parts. If there is state support, this process can be shortened.”

Xia Honghua had received clear instructions before he came, and he said decisively, "The annual production of 70 vehicles must be a national project. You can rest assured about this. Deputy Director Zhu made a clear instruction that he hoped that Nanfang Industrial would implement it as soon as possible. If you need any help, just tell me." .”

There must be conditions, Yao Yuan thought.

Sure enough, he changed the subject and said, "However, regarding site selection, I hope you can fully consider the opinions of the planning committee."

The deputy secretary-general became anxious immediately. Yes, the province has no right to speak on national projects, but the projects will ultimately fall on the local level.The planning committee is considering the whole country, but it is impossible for the province to watch the enterprises in its own territory put the project in other provinces.

He knew very well that if he didn't try his best to fight for it, he would definitely review it at the meeting after he went back—the work was not effective!

What an international joke, even one of the production bases with an annual output of 70 vehicles is enough to be included in the province's annual key projects or even five-year plan key projects.

The deputy secretary-general couldn't care less, and quickly said, "Nangang Industrial's headquarters is in Nangang. Nangang has a very good location and a good natural port. The transportation is very convenient. Mr. Yao, it is more appropriate to put the truck production base in Nangang. As for the car production base, Guangdong City is very suitable, if not, the entire Pearl River Delta region can be selected, and the traffic is also very good.”

"By the way, Mr. Yao, you have a lot of industries in the Shenzhen market. The Shenzhen market is also good. There are national policies that favor it. It is very suitable for setting up a large-scale automobile production base."

Zhou Liang immediately reacted, and quickly echoed, "Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Yao, haven't you inspected Xihai County before? You are a native of Xihai County and know the situation in Xihai very well. The car production base is located in Xihai. Very suitable."

The Deputy Secretary-General couldn't help but glanced at Zhou Liang, but didn't say anything. After all, now is the time to "unanimously communicate with the outside world", first ensure that the project stays in the province, and then consider the issue of which city to put it in.So he pretended not to hear Zhou Liang's careful thoughts.

Lin Wei came over with a skewer, smiled honestly, and said, "Leaders, car production is actually quite complicated, and upstream supporting issues must be taken into account. The reason why BMW can start to make imported models domestically is because Because we have built a relatively complete upstream supply chain in the Tianfu area."

He looked at Yao Yuan and continued, "We have cooperated with the Tianfu Municipal Government to acquire more than a dozen local machinery factories, integrate these factories, and hand over the parts that need to be made in China to these factories for production. And the production of these parts Qualified raw materials are required, such as steel. In theory, the closer to the raw material supply, the more cost can be reduced.”

The deputy secretary-general was surprised. There was only one not-so-big iron and steel plant in Guangdong Province. That is to say, Nanfang Industrial did not plan to choose Guangdong Province.

He hurriedly said, "That's the way it is, but as an automobile production base, there should be no way to take into account all material supply locations. In this case, I think it is safer to take into account the relevant support policies of transportation and the local government. To be honest , nationwide, Guangdong Province's relevant support policies are relatively good, Director Xia, don't you think so?"

Xia Honghua had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "The frontier of reform and opening up in Guangdong Province, relatively speaking, the policy is better."

This is a fact.

Yao Yuan saw that going on like this was not an option, maybe the provinces would set him on fire in order to grab the car production base.This kind of thing cannot be delayed, unless he wants to use it as a bargaining chip for better policies.

For example, the Haicang base, the real purpose of the Formosa Plastics Group is to use the Haicang base to put pressure on the authorities. They have no plan to build a Haicang base in the mainland at all.

It is a common practice of many people in this era to use the project to stimulate the appetite of the local government and to make the two places compete for better corporate treatment. More often than not, in order to attract more corporate investment, the local government They even put money in advance.

Yao Yuan didn't have this kind of thought, he didn't bother to do it because it didn't match his principles.

Before they fought, Yao Yuan said, "Leaders, the site selection of the three automobile production bases has been basically completed. The car production base is located in Xihai County. The specific location is yet to be investigated. Two truck production bases, one in Tianfu , and the other in Hebei."

"Is it confirmed?" the Deputy Secretary-General asked quickly, his body tensed up.

That is a production base with an annual output of 20 trucks!

The annual output value reaches 200 billion!

Guangdong Province is crazy and wants to keep these two production bases.

At this time, Xia Honghua also realized this problem, and regretted talking about the automobile production base in front of the deputy secretary-general and the local mayor.

Yao Yuan smiled and said, "Basically confirmed."

Xia Honghua said before the Deputy Secretary-General could speak, "Xiao Yao, I see, don't worry, this is not a project of tens of millions, the annual output value is tens of millions, this is a big deal. You haven't visited Tianfu yet Let’s go, I haven’t been to Hebei for inspection, you see how it is, I’ll accompany you around, both places have a look, you can also go to Shanghai, tens of billions of projects, don’t do it How about an investigation?"

"Director Xia is right, Mr. Yao, I suggest that you first inspect the Pearl River Delta region. Our province also has steel factories. The Yinguan Iron and Steel Factory is relatively strong. The province will come forward to coordinate them to supply you. What do you think?" The deputy secretary-general said quickly, wiping off his sweat.

The Chief Secretary is here, and he is under a lot of pressure.

Facts have proved that the province should send a higher-level leader to accompany him. The deputy secretary-general can't make any decisions, but in the current situation, there is nothing real, and it may be difficult to win over Yao Yuan.

The only fortunate thing is that Yao Yuan has decided to put the car production base in Xihai County...
