Chapter 365 Shanghai Automobile

In fact, Fang Xiang’s idea is very simple and not that complicated.

First of all, the production lines of X3 and X5 were built for Cao Tianwei.

After Cao Tianwei complained on the phone last time, he went to find Mr. Yang. Although the red line issue was important, the foreign exchange issue was more important now.

Moreover, with the higher production and more foreign exchange generated by Second Automobile Works, Henan Province will also benefit from it, right?

At least there is more tax revenue, more employment, and more foreign exchange. These are things that concern people right below their butts. You see whether they are proactive or not.

But Second Automobile Works is in Luoyi, a place like that. Once you dig a shovel, you might dig up your ancestors.

Therefore, this time the expansion of the factory can only be arranged to the north of Luo River. Because it will occupy part of the farmland, the amount of land allocated is not that much.

It's just enough.

As for the old factory area, we also took the opportunity to renovate a number of them. Although most of them are still old, it does not affect the installation and production of new production lines.

After more than a month, the installation and debugging have basically been completed, and small-scale trial production has also begun.

If it weren't for the freezing cold weather that has affected the production, we might be able to increase the output soon.

Therefore, Cao Tianwei, who received Fang Xiang's call, was also ready to work hard. Even in winter, it did not affect the enthusiasm of the people at Second Automobile Works.

They are recruiting, training, and running-in. While the production line does not need so many people for the time being, they are seizing the time to train a group of new workers.

So that the new production line can be scheduled for production directly after installation.

The second is the three newly ordered production lines.

This time, it’s Lao Ma who has to take action again, but this time, Lao Ma brings a document with him.

The content is not much, just that it plans to add three world-leading production lines for Shanghai Auto, and hopes that Shanghai Auto will cooperate.

What to cooperate with?

It's just a matter of making room, training workers, and preparing production schedules.

But just such a small thing caused Shanghai Automobile to go crazy.

The reason is naturally what was mentioned before, the competition between the surrender faction and the resistance faction.

In fact, it’s not quite accurate to say that there is competition. To put it bluntly, it’s all for those limited positions.

Some people are optimistic about Fang Xiang and want to speculate. Naturally, some people want to keep their positions.

Look, the butt decides the head again.

After searching through the history of five thousand years, isn't this all the stuff that's talked about?

So, while Lao Ma was holding the documents with the red seals of the Ministry of Machinery Industry and China National Automobile Corporation, six 10,000-ton ships were anchored at the port of Shanghai.

When Lao Ma first held the document, many people sneered at it, saying, "I recognize your red-headed document, but it's called a red-headed document. I don't recognize it, it's nothing."

As they approached, three 10,000-ton ships began to unload their cargo.

Right under the eyes of the public, three brand new, world-leading production lines were unloaded from the ship, loaded onto wagons directly at the port, and began to be transported to Luoyi one by one.

If you don't react when one truck is pulled away, no problem. There's still a second truck behind it. I don't believe you won't react until the third truck is pulled away.

How many people in Shanghai Auto still don’t believe it?

After the three fully loaded train carriages of Second Automobile Works were taken away one by one in front of Shanghai Automobile Works, only the three huge ships were left in the port.

The benefits are right in front of you, do you want them? Then obey.

Don't want it? That's not easy to deal with? Without Shanghai Auto, I can't eat hairy pigs? Can I give it to Beijing Auto? Can I give it to FAW?

If it really doesn't work, can Second Automobile Works and GAC be separated?

Faced with such a huge temptation, except for a very small number of diehards, not only did the wavering group, which originally had the largest number of people, fall, but even many of the resistance group, which originally had a large number of people, softened their voices.

The reason is quite simple.

If there are more production lines, won’t there be more jobs?

A production line should have a general manager, right? A production line should have several small workshop managers, right?

Look, there are a few more seats. Who wouldn’t want to sit on them?

Moreover, after defeating those resistance factions who are now standing there doing nothing, won’t a few more positions be vacated?

There are so many jealous people!

So, right under Lao Ma's nose, Shanghai Auto suddenly became more united than ever before.

Some reported it, some exposed it, some provided evidence, and even if there was nothing at all, they would try to find something. In short, it is the last few diehards who are getting extremely anxious and frustrated.

Logically, it would be most appropriate for Fang Xiang to step forward in this situation. He would take action with thunder and take down those diehards in one fell swoop, and then select a few people who he likes from the surrender faction and promote them to the top.

Isn't it just around the corner for Shanghai Auto to be incorporated into our company?

But at this time, Fang Xiang didn't think so.

“For this matter, you can just let Lao Yang clean up the mess.

It would be better for you to wait until he has finished cleaning up before taking over.

You know, the people who initially called for a joint venture haven't withdrawn yet.

Old Yang will step down after this term. He is very strong and is not afraid of what will happen in the future. But you are different. You are still young. Try to avoid doing things that offend others. "

Moreover, it was not only Fang who thought so, Liu's father also called him.

Therefore, Fang decided to keep calm and watch the performance of Shanghai Automobile.

And Mr. Yang, after bargaining and invitations from several parties, flew directly to Shanghai.

In just one night, several senior executives disappeared.

The next day, all kinds of rumors spread in Shanghai Automobile, saying that he had fled abroad, that he had been placed under double supervision, that he had been called away by the police for questioning, and that he had jumped into the sea to commit suicide.

In short, the news is so incredible that there is all kinds of information.

As a result, the factory's production efficiency has also dropped significantly.

Even though turbulence is always inevitable, it did not last long.

With Mr. Yang in charge, within a few days, the new management team was put in place under Mr. Yang's watchful eye.

On the afternoon of the same day after the new management took office, the three large ships docked at the port began to unload their cargo.

Because Shanghai Automobile had a railway directly connected to the port and the station in the early years, this batch of production lines was directly pulled to the factory after unloading from the ship.

Mr. Yang was not in a hurry to leave. He stayed at Shanghai Auto for a week and watched the three production lines being installed before he flew back to Beijing.

Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that the new secretary of Shanghai Auto is named Ma.

That’s right, the inconspicuous office director of Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation back then has now become the top boss of Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation.

More than ten years ago, Lao Ma ran away from Shanghai Auto and went to Luoyi, then went to Factory 132, and now he has returned to Shanghai Auto.

It can be said that we have gone around in circles.

After Lao Ma left Factory 132, Engineer Tu was promoted directly from deputy chief engineer to secretary, and Engineer Song took over Engineer Tu's position and became deputy chief engineer.

The first thing Ma did after taking office was to shorten Santana's production lines and plans.

To be honest, even Lao Ma, who is not involved in research and development and only knows logistics, doesn't like this car.

But it's true, who made Lao Ma drive a BMW for more than ten years? It is said that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, and Lao Ma is on the same side as Fang Xiang.

Fang thought about why he invested in GAC in the first place, and Lao Ma knew it very well.

Now that Shanghai Auto is in power, it is natural for it to clear the obstacles for Fang Xiang, right?

But Lao Ma is not a person who doesn't know what's going on. New cars are important, but Santana is also very important. Its domestic market share is not low. Of course, it is definitely not as good as Hongguang.

Nowadays, the low-end cars in China are basically dominated by Hongguang and Beidouxing, and among them, Hongguang has an absolute advantage.

How to say it, although Beidouxing is cheap, Chinese people don’t buy everything. Although this ugly car is more suitable for families and small family workshops, people still prefer to buy Hongguang.

This made Fang Xiang, who was calculating this year's sales data, fall into deep thought.

Because in addition to Beidouxing, the sales of several other models are also not satisfactory.

What should I do? Should I make some adjustments first?

Or should we cut it off completely and use the production capacity to make more selling cars?

After all, the production lines for cars exported now are so dry that smoke is coming out of them, and Huo Zhenting has been squatting at the door of the production line these days, counting them one by one.
