Chapter 466 The problems faced by the Great Wall
I have been out of town some time ago, busy with wedding photography, new house decoration and many other things. I was so busy that most of the chapters were automatic. Now I am finally home. I can take a good breath and start writing seriously.
.The current performance of Qiwu Pop-upqi is very unsatisfactory, and we urgently need your support. I beg you for your monthly passes and subscriptions!
So this time Great Wall can be said to be cruel. As an automobile company full of ambitions for the future, they do not just want to be limited to the market of pickup trucks and V-models. They also have more lofty ideals.[]
But the current problem is that they currently face great resistance when entering the civilian vehicle market.
Originally, in the next year, they would launch the Great Wall Haval 3, the first model of the Great Wall Haval series. If the original historical trajectory was followed, then this car would be very popular after it was launched on the market, making the Great Wall Haval brand an instant hit.
A 2.0L or 2.4L diesel engine, coupled with a 5-speed manual transmission, this configuration is enough. Great Wall has never been very good at gasoline engines, but these days, as long as it gets a few Mitsubishi from Nanyang Hangyao
The castrated version of the 2.0 gasoline engine is also sufficient.
But this is the original history. The current situation is due to the emergence of Huayang Dynamics. In the V market, Huayang Dynamics' Urban V Escape has taken the lead, and their tough guy series also filled the gap between Mitsubishi Pajero's overall failure in the early dynasty.
The void after exiting the market.
Although the Tough Guy series is not cheap to buy, after more than two years of market testing, it has enough fans and can now compete with Toyota.
Other automobile companies have also chosen to cooperate with Huayang Power and asked Jin Xiaoqiang, an international design master, to help them design new cars.
They also have a good relationship with Huayang Power, using auto parts produced by Huayang Seiko on a large scale, and also obtained a large number of 4-speed automatic transmission parts from them.
Faced with such competitive pressure, Great Wall, which was still somewhat proud at first, could no longer hold back. In fact, when Huayang Power first emerged, Great Wall's boss had been in contact with Jin Xiaoqiang.
At that time, Jin Xiaoqiang was still enthusiastic about helping Great Wall design a new car, and even wanted to participate in the research and development of their Haval series.
Unfortunately, the boss of Great Wall was wary of Jin Xiaoqiang at that time and did not agree to Jin Xiaoqiang's request. Later, the cooperation between the two parties gradually cooled down.
Although Great Wall has been trying to purchase a lot of auto parts from Huayang Seiko for more than a year, the relationship between the two parties has always been lukewarm, not at all like that between Ligu and Huayang Power.
His eyebrows were moving with warmth.
Now that Great Wall has seen that companies like Ligu, Rich, and byd have received support from Huayang Power, and coupled with the pressure from the market, they cannot sit still.
The Great Wall Haval 3 they independently developed has basically been finalized. If it was two years ago, they might still have confidence in their car, but now they really have no confidence at all.
The car follows the hardcore V route, and its appearance is not bad, but its body is relatively narrow, and most importantly, its powertrain is not outstanding.
When Great Wall was making pickup trucks in the past, it mainly produced diesel engines. However, if the oil extraction engine is used in a pickup truck, there is nothing wrong with it. However, if it is used in civilian passenger vehicles, it will not work.
The diesel oil quality of Yaochao is not as good as that of foreign countries. Vehicles using diesel engines are generally noisy, slow to start and slow to increase speed, and when the car starts, a stream of black smoke often comes out from behind the butt.
This will give a very low-end, very cheap feeling, so this is also the main reason why diesel engines have not been developed in the Yao Dynasty.
Therefore, current diesel engines are generally used in large-scale transportation vehicles, such as buses or transportation vehicles, and are rarely used in civilian vehicles.
It is precisely because of this reason that Great Wall is not very confident in the Great Wall Haval 3 developed by itself. In fact, it is not impossible to purchase gasoline engines from outside. Nanyang Hangyao Institute is a company that cooperates with Mitsubishi
, and are producing Mitsubishi's 4g series engines, you can purchase gasoline engines from them.
However, the premise for purchasing from Hangyao Institute is that there is no such company as Huayang Power in Yaochao. In the past two years, with the emergence of Huayang Power, Yaochao's automobile manufacturing level has been greatly improved, especially the manufacturing of powertrains including engines and transmissions.
It can be said that the ability has improved by more than one level than before.
They can produce all technologies that can be used by foreign-funded cars and joint venture cars, and they can even produce technologies that cannot be used by foreign cars and joint venture cars.
In addition, the price of their cars is not expensive, which is very beneficial to the people. They quickly gained a large number of consumer support in Yaochao. Therefore, as Huayang Power develops and grows, the appetite of consumers in Yaochao is also developed.
was hoisted.
It’s no longer like before, they have to buy whatever you sell them.
Even those foreign car companies that were originally high-ranking had to desperately update their technologies at this time, or simply introduce technologies that they had only marketed abroad and had not introduced into the country, and Huayang Power
confrontation.
In such an environment, how can Great Wall's Haval 3 still dare to take advantage of it?
With their old diesel engine, or the castrated version of the 4g series engine purchased from Nanyang Hangyao, I am afraid that as soon as the car is put on the market, it will be scolded by consumers immediately.
.
As a result, Great Wall immediately became less confident in their Haval 3, but they were unwilling to give up this Haval series product that they had been working for for two years.
So after much deliberation, they finally had no choice but to ask Jin Xiaoqiang for help. After all, they had had a close relationship before, and looking at Jin Xiaoqiang's attitude towards other independent car companies across the country, they still respect it quite a bit.
, so Great Wall had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask Jin Xiaoqiang for help.
Fortunately, Jin Xiaoqiang was very open-minded and did not care about the previous rejection of Great Wall bosses. Instead, he enthusiastically agreed to help them design a new model. However, this would have to wait for a while because he had some urgent needs during this period.
things to be dealt with.
I dare not agree to it if I don't agree to it. If I agree to help them design a new car regardless of their past grudges, it's already a huge thank you.
Mr. Jin went abroad on a business trip, but people from Great Wall were stationed in Nanyang. Their mission this time was not only to ask Jin Xiaoqiang to help design new cars, but also to discuss the supply of gasoline engines with Great Wall.
Great Wall has just started in the design of gasoline engines, and what is most lacking in China is automotive engine designers. It is not that there are no such talents in the country, but such talents are either taken by Volkswagen, FAW, or
General Motors and big companies like Huayang Power took it away.
It will take several years for them to train their own team of engineers, but at present, they can no longer wait. It is basically impossible to design a gasoline engine by themselves, and from Nanyang Hangyao Institute
It is impossible to purchase gasoline engines at the same time, so they can only work hard from Huayang Power.
In their opinion, the 2.0 engine used in Huayang Power's current Eado model is good. Both engines have DVVT technology and are also equipped with turbochargers.
If they can launch cooperation negotiations with Huayang Power on these two engines and succeed, then it is not impossible for them to succeed in the Haval 3 market.
But I just don’t know if Huayang Dynamics is willing to transfer these two technologies?
Great Wall's employees are very patient. At Huayang Power's Nanyang production base, it's been a month. During this period of more than a month, the entry-level employees have always gone abroad on business and never come back.
But they were not in a hurry. After several visits to the 2.0-volume Eado engine produced by Huayang Power, they started negotiations with Huayang Power.
The ultimate goal is to purchase these two engines and related incidental technologies from Huayang Power.
However, Huayang Power has not relented. After all, they have not completely eliminated the technology of these two engines, and it is still used in their e-sports cars. What they are afraid of is that if this technology is transferred
, then it will attract a competitor to Yidong.
Great Wall was not in a hurry and did not give up. It just kept trying and talked with Huayang Power's negotiators for more than a month. Finally, they got a reply from Huayang Power before New Year's Day.
If you want these two engines, then yes, Huayang Power can transfer technology, but within the next five years, if Great Wall models need to use this engine, they must purchase it from Huayang Seiko.
, and if the technology transfer is successful after five years, Great Wall will not be allowed to transfer the technology of this engine to other external peers without authorization.
The reply came from Jin Xiaoqiang. Mr. Jin had ended the negotiations abroad and returned to the country.
After the Great Wall representatives heard that Jin Xiaoqiang had returned to China, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Now they could finally catch up with the progress.
Huayang Power also had a backbone due to the return of Jin Xiaoqiang, and soon reached an agreement with Great Wall. Huayang Power transferred the manufacturing technology of 2.0's gasoline engines to Great Wall. These engine technologies include double overhead camshafts.
, and multi-point electronic injection technology, but does not include dvvt, turbocharging technology, etc.
And in the next three years, Great Wall is not allowed to privately transfer the production technology of these two engines to other outside automobile manufacturing companies, and the two engines they use within these three years must have Huayang Seiko.
