Spring Breeze 1991

In the eyes of Chinese people, cars are ultra-high-tech products, and textbooks say that the United States is a country on wheels, because every household has a car, and because the United States is the most technologically advanced country in the world.

Sometimes the textbooks seem to show that the worship of certain countries is blind, and it is difficult to be objective when describing some situations in foreign countries.

In the 80s, there was a trend of favoring foreigners. The most obvious phenomenon was the enthusiasm for going abroad, and the moon abroad must be rounder.

In fact, when Chinese people go abroad, they will be disappointed to find that foreign countries are more cruel.

Yao Yuan had to explain to several leaders how to build a car. He said, "It's not difficult to build a car. Many machinery factories in our country have the ability to make cars. To put it bluntly, a car is just four wheels and a sofa. It's not difficult to make it. Difficult. The difficulty lies in building a good car, a luxury car.”

"Southern Industrial has planned two major passenger car brands and two major truck brands, namely BMW, Baojun, Tigon and Chenglong. BMW is a high-end brand, Baojun is a low-end brand, Tigress is a heavy-duty truck, and The Dragon is a commercial van."

"In addition to BMW, several other brands are arranged to produce in the car production base. The technical research and development of all brands is supported by the Spring Wind Academy of Sciences. Our team has made a forecast and it is estimated that it will take five years to complete the initial layout."

Yao Yuan said with a smile, "We also made a five-year plan, which was formulated in accordance with the basic policies and requirements of the national five-year plan. Our basic principle is to realize the development of enterprises on the premise of developing national industries."

"Foreign car companies are basically unified in their entry into the Chinese market. The difference lies in the timing. Some think the sooner the better, while others think it is not yet. This is a rare opportunity for us to develop rapidly. Sooner or later we will In order to integrate with the world, WTO entry negotiations have been discussed for six years. No matter how long it takes, China will join the WTO sooner or later, and sooner or later it will join the world division of labor, especially the manufacturing industry. If our large national automobile industry does not make a breakthrough before joining the WTO If there is no rapid development, I am afraid that the huge market will be handed over to foreign car companies.”

This has actually happened in history. It was not until the popularization of new energy vehicles that China's auto industry formed an advantageous position over foreign auto companies. The rapid development of domestic new energy vehicles relied on the country's long-term subsidy support.

But Xia Honghua thought that what Yao Yuan said was too far away, and he said in a deep voice, "Xiao Yao, you have lofty ideals, which is very good, and I also support it very much. I very much hope that you can contribute more to the industry." Don't worry, I will fight for preferential policies for you, and Lao Zhong will also speak for you."

Yao Yuan said in a deep voice, "My most urgent need is manpower. You know that I have no financial pressure. The production base of 50 vehicles must be built within a year, and it is impossible to complete it on our own."

"Let's have a battle. Since it is a national project, let's have a big battle. We will coordinate and mobilize construction teams and construction machinery from all over the country. I also hope that your province will support it. This is a special event. I will It is recommended that the province set up a leading group to be directly responsible for the related matters of the automobile production base." Xia Honghua said, looking at the deputy secretary-general.

The deputy secretary-general nodded without hesitation, "Director Xia, I will report to the secretary as soon as I go back. The production base of 50 vehicles is a national project, and it is the No. [-] project in our province. The province will definitely do its best to support it." .”

"Xiao Yao, since that's the case, I'll stay in Nangang first." Xia Honghua meant to ask for opinions when she said this.

Yao Yuan smiled and said, "The scenery in Nangang is beautiful, Director Xia can take this opportunity to take a stroll."

Several people chatted again, Xia Honghua and others got up to leave.

When Yao Yuan sent him to the car, he stopped and said in a low voice, "The matter of the oil and gas pipelines has already reached our planning committee. My opinion is to put it on hold for now. Now is not the time."

Slightly stunned, Yao Yuan nodded.

Watching the convoy leave, Yao Yuan thought over Xia Honghua's words over and over, thoughtfully.

1992 was a year in which the external environment of China was very complicated. Eastern Europe underwent drastic changes, and the Soviet Union disintegrated into more than a dozen countries. The changes in the international situation can be said to be earth-shaking.As for the domestic economic development path, after several years of debate, it was finally determined and implemented as a basic policy this year.

To develop the economy, to use foreign capital and technology means to join the world division of labor. This point has been confirmed six years ago, so there is an application for accession to the WTO. This application is not an ordinary application, but a contracting party Status joins.To achieve this, it is necessary to obtain the support of relevant countries. At the economic level, many countries will not give up the Chinese market, and the development of the world economy must be inseparable from China.

It can be said that from the early 90s to 2008, China has grown from scratch, from an insignificant role to an important manufacturing power, and after entering the WTO in 2002, it drove on the fast track and consolidated the basic skills of the manufacturing industry. , and then there was the later intelligent manufacturing power.

For Yao Yuan, all enterprises under Chunfeng Asset Management Group are at the beginning of a period of strategic opportunities. If they seize the opportunity, they will seize the development time of more than ten years. Taking the right path means that there will be more than ten years of accumulation .

This is a turning point.

North Korea, which has not turned around, will become one of the poorest countries in the world 30 years later.

Yao Yuan also had to temporarily put the oil and gas pipeline project on hold. Fortunately, taking advantage of the establishment of diplomatic relations, Nanfang Industrial obtained part of the LNG ship manufacturing technology from Hyundai Heavy Industries.

Xia Honghua's other meaning is also very obvious - you should focus on the car production base.

The state supports large-scale wars, and mobilizes manpower and equipment from all over the country to build a production base with an annual output of 50 passenger cars. If it is to be completed within one year, it will not be 1 or 2 people, but absolutely endless. above a human scale.

Obviously, such a huge construction project must be supported by Yao Yuan himself.

Things have come to this, it is not good for Yao Yuan to stay in the countryside, the next day he bid farewell to his grandfather and parents and headed to the urban area, Yao Chong and Yao Hu stayed behind to work on the agricultural company.The West Sea Sugar Factory has entered the shift stage, and Yao Zhenhua and his wife have a full month's vacation, which is just in time to take care of the affairs in the village.

As for the merger and reorganization of the sugar factory in Xihai County, it can only be pushed back. Yao Yuan has no control over this. He can only ask the county government to honor the IOUs with the sugarcane farmers, and Nanfang Industrial will set up a special account. The amount is included in the acquisition amount.

However, the thing that gave Yao Yuan a headache was the car production base...
