Rebirth 99 to become a car giant

"Mr. Bu Defan, Dr. Hassan, Li Gong, thank you for your hard work today!"

"Welcome to our factory to guide and guide more in the future!"

"This is a local specialty of Yangcheng, please have a taste."

The investigation group from Shanghai Volkswagen arrived this morning, and they will go to another supplier tomorrow morning.

So after dinner, this visit is considered to be over.

"Factory Manager, this level of Shanghai Volkswagen has been passed. I didn't feel so much pressure when I came to the VDA review before, so I can breathe a sigh of relief."

Seeing Bu Defan and the others got into the taxi, Zeng Tingting breathed a sigh of relief.

During this period of time, her mood was quite ups and downs.

After a while, the factory audit was cancelled, and the order was gone.

After a while the order came back and increased.

This repeated, my little heart couldn't stand it.

Especially the nut plate produced in the factory before, no matter how the mold is modified, it will crack.

Fortunately, the young boss suddenly came up with a brand new design process and designed all the PRG molds.

Although after adopting a new process, the mold needs to be reopened.

In one click, the mold cost invested before was wiped out.

But it's better than waiting to die, right?

Now the parts are also mass-produced smoothly, and there is still a chance to export...

Thinking about it this way is even more exciting than losing weight yourself.

"Why are you so relieved? The factory needs to buy a few more stamping machines as soon as possible. We need to prepare for expansion. Don't expect orders to come, but we can't take them. That would be a pity."

Although Nanshan Parts Factory has dozens of stamping machines, most of them are relatively old, and only two newly purchased Schuler presses are relatively powerful.

Corresponding to the current production of nut plates for Jetta and Santana, it is naturally enough.

But if you want to export, it is not enough to watch.

"Huh? Need to buy equipment again?"

"There's no money left."

Zeng Tingting felt a lot of pressure.

After the finance minister ran away with the money, she, the secretary to the general manager, is now in charge of the company's finances.

"Mortgage these two pieces of equipment to the bank as a deposit for the delivery of the equipment. By the time the equipment is delivered, Chuncheng Stamping has already paid for the goods on a monthly basis."

"At that time, we went to the bank with the order from Spring City Stamping, and we should be able to get some money out of it."

When Cao Yang said this, the pressure on Zeng Tingting became even greater.

Another loan?

Need more leverage?

If you are not careful, the factory will really close down.

"If you just want to buy a press, it doesn't need to be so troublesome, right?"

"One? Who said there is only one? Buy at least three more. And we must buy a stamping machine suitable for the PRG process to increase our production capacity."

"The output of Santana and Jetta is so much. Even if we really make all the nut plates for us, we don't need so many punching machines, right?"

"It's only for Santana and Jetta, so of course we don't need it. But Shanghai Volkswagen and Spring City Volkswagen also have other models. And domestic Shanghai Shanghai General Motors and Peugeot Citroen also have the demand for localization of nut plates. Besides, Bu Defan Didn't you tell Hassan that we would recommend our nut plate to Volkswagen headquarters so that all Volkswagen models around the world can use it?"

"It took us more than a year to enter the supply system of Modu Volkswagen, and we are still supplying as a secondary supplier in the end. How can we enter other manufacturers so quickly in such a short period of time. As for Bu Defan and the others We can't take it too seriously, so far, I haven't heard of Volkswagen importing parts from China."

Zeng Tingting obviously didn't want to go so radically.

She was really thinking about the factory, so she was not afraid that her words would make the factory manager unhappy.

"Volkswagen's global situation is not as optimistic as you might imagine. Don't look at the two joint ventures of Volkswagen that are now the largest car companies in China, but in the international arena, there are GM, Ford, Toyota in front of them, and Nissan and Toyota behind them. Honda is chasing, and the pressure is high."

"The cost is lower and the quality is better. Who doesn't like such parts?"

Unlike most people in this era, Cao Yang knows a lot more about the international situation.

Just like when Volkswagen came to China to set up factories, it seems that it was because they were optimistic about the Chinese market.

Yes, this must be a very important reason.

In fact, another reason is that Volkswagen’s global situation was not optimistic at that time, and it was eager to open up the situation in other places and save the company’s stock price.

"Factory Manager, it doesn't matter even if Deutsche Volkswagen really asks us to buy parts, we can wait for the information to be confirmed before we act."

"Prepare for a rainy day. If you want to develop, you naturally have to take some risks. You should quickly arrange for someone to contact you to see which stamping machine can deliver as soon as possible."

Cao Yang is the boss, and in the end Zeng Tingting must not be able to twist her thigh with her arm.

So she didn't worry about it anymore.

"By the way, factory manager, haven't you learned much about mold design before? Why are you better than the best engineer in the factory this time?"

Now that the factory has survived the difficulties, Zeng Tingting finally began to wonder about things that Cao Yang didn't want to answer.

Mold design requires experience accumulation.

In particular, the stamping parts made by Nanshan Auto Parts Factory all use the TDM process, and no one knows PRG at all.

After all, PRG mold design is difficult, expensive and requires high equipment.

Although the work efficiency is also high, in the eyes of most people, those who can use TDM technology do not need PRG.

Anyway, Huaxia's labor is very cheap, several stamping machines are connected into a line, and the production cost of using TDM technology is not high.

"Oh, Xiao Zeng, your boss is a genius, he learned it by himself by reading books."

"By the way, we are already supplying the Volkswagens in Shanghai and Spring City, but we haven't entered the Yangcheng Honda that is close at hand. Hurry up and make arrangements. Let's visit their purchases."

Cao Yang made a foolish sentence, then decisively changed the subject.

Sure enough, after hearing what the boss said, Zeng Tingting's attention was immediately diverted.

Yangcheng Honda, that is the dark horse in China's auto market this year.

Although the overall output is still not as good as Shanghai Volkswagen and Spring City Volkswagen, if Nanshan Stamping Factory does not even supply Yangcheng Honda, it will be a bit embarrassing to ask other OEMs when they introduce it to other OEMs in the future.

"Before the establishment of Yangcheng Honda, Minister Zhang should have contact with the people of Yangcheng Peugeot. The old factory manager took him to visit several times. I will talk to Minister Zhang later, and I should be able to contact them."

Thinking that there will be three more stamping machines arriving in a few months, if the production capacity is vacant at that time, the Nanshan Auto Parts Factory, which has finally improved, may be in trouble again.

So Zeng Tingting also hopes that the factory can get a few more orders.
