After the provincial agent and dealer issues are resolved, there are two more issues that need to be resolved.
The first is that product diversification must be put on the agenda. It is impossible to dominate the world with Kyushu Mini all the time.
Consumers have various needs, including larger cars, more luxury, etc. This requires car companies to offer more models.
Issues in this area are already underway.
In the comprehensive automobile research and development center, there is a team responsible for the appearance design of vehicle models.
Unlike other work in technology research and development, this model's exterior design team will rarely encounter bottlenecks. It can quickly produce a design draft for the appearance of a vehicle in a few days.
When it comes to drawing, even if it's just a little bit bad, it's impossible that you can't draw a line, but the design drawings you produce may not necessarily be liked by most consumers.
It doesn't matter, just design more drawings of the product and finally select the excellent design.
There are a total of more than ten three-star talents who graduated from vehicle design majors, and one four-star talent.
It only takes a few days to produce the first drafts of some car models.
Samsung is already an excellent model exterior designer.
What kind of product design will a four-star model designer bring?
The large number of talents recruited across the country are beginning to bear fruit!
And unlike the exterior design of automobiles, the exterior design of low-speed electric vehicles will be much faster from model design to production.
There is no need for a blow tunnel, and there is no need to worry too much about aerodynamic performance and other issues.
Even later, many old people did not even have their own designers. They directly scaled down luxury cars such as Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz G, and BMW to produce small Land Rover and small Mercedes-Benz!
Maybe those Laotou Le production companies don't even have their own appearance designers, so they just hire students to make changes and use them!
The problem of diversification of car models is being solved, and the results will be seen soon.
Then the second problem that needs to be solved is the production capacity of the product.
Today, the Jiuzhou Automobile Factory, plus two foundries, has an annual output of approximately 300,000 units.
The entire Xichuan Province can basically absorb these production capacities without competitors from other brands.
However, if we expand outward now, these production capacities are completely insufficient.
Moreover, Kyushu Automobile's sales model has also changed from the slow expansion of the direct sales model to a sales model that seeks agents in all provinces across the country.
The capacity gap will expand rapidly!
Xu Yifan is still very confident in his own products. The only one on the market that can compare with Jiuzhou Automobile in the field of low-speed electric vehicles is BYD today!
On the office chair, Xu Yifan looked out the office window at the ever-expanding Jiuzhou Automobile Factory.
"There is a production capacity problem. In the province, there are still a few automobile production bases, but at most they can double the production capacity."
"Six hundred thousand units is still a drop in the bucket for the large national market."
At this point, Xu Yifan suddenly came back to his senses and smiled.
In the distance, there is a comprehensive automobile research and development center that is larger than any other building in the Jiuzhou Automobile Factory.
“The development of Kyushu Automobile is not too slow to say the least, it has only happened in just one year!
It has been able to compete with many domestic car brands in the field of low-speed electric vehicles.
And after the establishment of a nationwide dealer system, sales are expected to increase several times, or even more than ten times!
That is to say, in the field of Laotoule, if it is a normal car, the annual sales volume is at least 300,000 units, or even more, maybe millions of models, which is already a lot in 2009.
Among domestically produced cars, they are even more outstanding!
Unfortunately, this is also in a field where there are no joint venture cars, abandoning traditional engine technology and taking the lead in battery technology.
Kyushu Automobile has the potential to become a giant in the field of low-speed electric vehicles, which could take as short as one or two years or as long as three to five years! "
The future is bright, and Kyushu Automobile is developing very rapidly, but the problems that need to be faced must be solved one by one.
"So what should we do to ensure that production capacity can keep up."
"It's still a choice I've made once before. It's still too slow to build a self-built production line. What's more needed now is to expand production capacity very quickly and capture the market."
"Then, the best choice is still the OEM model."
"It's okay for the automobile factories in the province. If you say hello to the superiors, you can get some support.
Even directly from the official side, Deputy Secretary Chen found the local officials where the vehicle production bases were located, and then contacted the vehicle production bases.
Finally, we sat down to have a meal together, and then we could discuss the issue of OEM for Jiuzhou Automobile Factory. "
This is a win-win situation. Jiuzhou Automobile Factory in Jiangzhou City has developed, has more production capacity, and earned more profits.
Jiangzhou officials can also get a large amount of tax revenue from the sales profits of local companies, and at the same time bring more jobs. The tax revenue can be used to develop the place. With employment, people will be richer and can bring more consumption. .
As for the local OEM, it is similar to the official Jiangzhou, with taxation and employment.
For foundries, idle production capacity is empty, and it is best to use it to make money.
Compared with when it first started, it is now much easier for Jiuzhou Automobile Factory to do many things in Xichuan Province!
Nowadays, Kyushu Automobile has demonstrated its capabilities, and the official government naturally provides full support in all aspects!
After roughly thinking about what needed to be done next, Xu Yifan continued to think.
"There is a lack of production capacity. Perhaps this is also an opportunity, an opportunity for rapid expansion!"
"After eating the automobile production bases in the province, you can go to those outside the province."
"At that time, we can not adopt the OEM model, but adopt the production base purchase model."
“Since we will compete with domestic car brands from outside the province, the losing party is likely to run into economic problems.
The products cannot be sold, and the source of income is lost. "
"If we can purchase a production base at this time, we are very likely to succeed."
"Well, this depends on the specific capabilities of the provincial agent. If it is good, it can enter the headquarters of some car companies to sell products."
"As long as there is fair competition, relying on the advantages of product technology and sales concept, it will be difficult to fail!"
"The same company is the same when it comes to cross-border business. If it's cross-border, buy it, continue production, and continue to expand!!"
"Well, if you buy a production base, although it should be a little cheaper than building it yourself, it is still a huge amount of money."
"We still need to control our spending. We cannot invest all of it in research and development, leaving some money to expand production capacity."
"As long as it can be developed by ourselves, even if it is technically difficult, as long as it takes time to break through, try not to spend money on the system to add BUFF."
"When necessary, you can only order important technologies. Of course, it would be better if you can order them at the same time!"
“Also, in order to cope with the expansion of production capacity, from now on, we need to be prepared to squeeze out some money to expand the battery factory.
As the core technology, batteries should be produced in-house as much as possible.
This time, the newly built lithium iron phosphate battery production plant can be larger in scale, and at least 100 to 200 million yuan will still be needed. "
"Then Jiuyuan electric vehicles can also adopt a dealer model like Jiuzhou Motors and develop sales simultaneously.
One product is for sale, two products are for sale, why not have one more product.
Jiuyuan electric vehicles have the same battery technology advantages as Jiuzhou Motors.
As long as the dealer has the ability, of course it would be better if everyone makes money together! "
