Resource Tycoon Reborn

Although it has withdrawn from the joint venture, it does not mean that Subaru Motors is willing to give up the huge Chinese automobile market. In 2004, Subaru automobiles re-entered the Chinese automobile market in the form of imports, and the parent company Fuji Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. cautiously

Subaru Automobile selected three dealers to be responsible for South China, East China and Northern China respectively. After Subaru Automobile entered the Chinese automobile market, it quickly gained market recognition with its unique horizontally opposed engine technology. Within a few years, its cumulative sales exceeded 100,000 vehicles.

As a result, the launch of Subaru cars in China was once again put on the company's agenda.

However, compared with the previous ten years, the Chinese automobile market at this time has undergone earth-shaking changes. Not only the world's major automobile production group companies have invested in China to find partners to build factories, but also

Private automobile companies in China have also begun to rise. Subaru Motor Company wanted to enter the Chinese automobile market. Although it contacted many Chinese companies, it was always difficult to achieve high results and low results. But last year, Subaru Motor Company finally made up its mind.

It wanted to cooperate with a private automobile company in China to build a joint venture. However, the application report was rejected by the relevant departments of the Chinese government. This result made both parties feel confused and extremely surprised.

After that, no matter how Subaru Motor Company, its parent company Fuji Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., or China's partners communicated and negotiated with the relevant departments of the Chinese government, the rejection of the application report was an indisputable fact that could not be changed. This result made

Subaru Motor Company and Fuji Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., which had been preparing for a long time, found it difficult to accept it. Of course, the main reason was that they felt very unwilling! The Chinese automobile market has developed into one of the most important automobile markets in the world in 2009

In 2008, China's annual car sales surpassed that of the United States, becoming the world's largest car sales country. It sells nearly 14 million cars annually, which is nearly three times the annual sales of Japan's domestic market! Yes!

It is said that all the joint ventures that have entered the Chinese automobile market are making a lot of money, which makes Subaru Motor Company and its parent company Fuji Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. jealous! But one wrong step, one wrong step after another, Subaru Motor Company

They missed the joint venture opportunity back then, and now that the application form has been rejected, they have nowhere to go to regret it.

Subaru Motor Company's production bases in Japan are basically in Gunma Prefecture. After the "April 3 East Japan Earthquake", although the tsunami did not have much direct impact on them, the earthquake affected these factories of Subaru Motor Company. They all had to stop production. Firstly, the earthquake caused some damage to the factory. For safety reasons, the company had to repair the factory first. Secondly, the earthquake caused an extremely tight power supply, and industrial production is a big consumer of electricity. Subaru The automobile company is also a leader in Gunma County's industry; thirdly, the earthquake caused serious damage to the roads in the disaster area, and the roads in neighboring counties were also affected to a certain extent by the earthquake, but this is not the main thing. There are too many vehicles entering the disaster area for rescue, and the roads are extremely congested. In order to make way for the rescue vehicles in the disaster area, local vehicles will naturally be greatly affected. This also makes it difficult for Subaru Motor Company to import raw materials and produce poor finished products. After being shipped out, even workers' commuting to and from get off work was greatly affected, so we simply stopped production and waited for the initial chaos to pass.

Subaru Motor Company once calculated an account. Not counting the direct losses caused by the earthquake, if production continues to be suspended, the total losses suffered by the company may be hundreds of millions of dollars. Of course, this number is different from Toyota

, first-tier manufacturers like Honda cannot compare, they have shut down more factories, and their daily losses are tens of millions of dollars! At this time, Hashimoto Ukazu would inevitably think, if the joint venture had been successfully established in China, at least the company would still be able to

With one more source of profit, the final performance report will look better.

So when he received a call from Takunori Wuyasu saying that he had met Fang Mingyuan and Naruichi Nakatani in the villa area of ​​Karuizawa, Hashimoto Ukazu immediately realized that this was a rare opportunity to get to know Fang Mingyuan!

Fang Mingyuan is also a well-known top figure in China's domestic economic circles and has inextricable ties with the Chinese government. His Qinchuan Samsung Automobile Group Co., Ltd. is a top company in the Chinese automobile industry. Although it is a private joint venture, it outperforms the rest.

, becoming an industry giant with astonishing production and sales in China. If Fang Mingyuan can be persuaded to help, even Subaru Automobile Company and Qinchuan Samsung Automobile Group Co., Ltd. will squeeze into the Chinese market! Joint venture cars and imported cars, in China,

There is a huge gap in the applied tax rates, which will eventually be reflected in the price. The price of imported cars is much higher than that of joint venture cars, which is undoubtedly very detrimental to sales.

Hashimoto Ukazu gave up his original schedule and drove towards Karuizawa, Nagano Prefecture. He asked his assistant to contact the helicopter immediately to ensure that he could arrive before Fang Mingyuan and Nakatani Naruichi became impatient.

Fang Mingyuan and his party arrived at Karuizawa Golf Club very quickly. Although it was not as long as Wu Yasuo Takano said, it only took about ten minutes, but it only took about twenty minutes.

Although Fang Mingyuan has no interest in playing golf and has never played it in the past, he is not a rookie who knows nothing about it. Moreover, along the way, Wuyasu Takunori and Nakatani Naiichi also talked to him about Karuizawa in general.

Golf Club, this is an old golf course with a history of nearly 80 years.

As for what the two said, the golf course here has excellent soil quality, good lawn growth, tall trees that make the road narrower, water hazards running through the entire golf course, undulating greens, and numerous bunkers in front of the greens, which can provide golfers with a mid-range shot.

An environment that never interferes with each other... and so on, Fang Mingyuan just listened. In his opinion, a golf course that allows him to stand on the course and look at the scenery around him and feel comfortable is a good golf course.

court!

"This is a membership-only golf club. Fortunately, today is not Sunday. Otherwise, if you want to enter and play, you will have to talk to the club." Wu Yasuo smiled and said, "In the selection of the best golf club in Japan last year, it was easy to win."

Izawa Golf Club ranks fifth, but it ranks first among the most difficult courses to book at super prestigious clubs!”

"Can't Karuizawa Golf Club be that club?" Nakatani Naruichi frowned.

Wu Anlong nodded and said: "If you are referring to the golf club that rejected the Prime Minister and Ambassador, then this is it."

Fang Mingyuan was a little confused, and looked at Nakatani Mingichi in surprise. This club is really awesome. In a society like Japan, it can reject people like the Prime Minister and Ambassador, no matter which country the Prime Minister and Ambassador are from, but really

Not easy. Could it be that it is a small African country that is not popular?

"What President Takeyasu said was that when Prime Minister Tanaka Kakuei was in office, he once invited the American ambassador to play here on a Sunday, but was turned away by the head of the club at the time. The reason was that according to the club

According to the regulations, this place is only open to members on Sundays. Even if non-member guests come, the club will not accept them. As a result, Prime Minister Tanaka and the US Ambassador had to find another golf club." Nakatani explained, "At that time, this place

This incident caused a sensation across the country. Karuizawa Golf Club became even more famous, and it became very difficult to become a member."

"It does sound quite exciting to be able to play golf in a club where even the Prime Minister and the US Ambassador are excluded." Fang Mingyuan grinned. If this were the case in China, let alone the Prime Minister and the US Ambassador.

He's a first-level person, a decent official. I'm afraid I'll teach you why the flowers are so red in minutes!

"Karuizawa Golf Club is considered an associate member, with a total of only about 600 people. Without the previous members withdrawing, new membership applications will not be approved." Takashi Wuyasu smiled bitterly, "We are the governor of Gunma Prefecture.

Torao Yoshimura has been waiting for almost five years, and now he is not even an associate member."

Fang Mingyuan nodded and didn't take it to heart. Anyway, he didn't have much interest in golf. Who knows why he will come to Karuizawa Golf Club again in the future. Its membership is comparable to winning the Nobel Prize, so what does it have to do with him?

relation!

Wu Anlong accompanied the two of them into the club, paid the fee, and accompanied them to choose jerseys and golf clubs. At this time, his assistant brought in two beautiful young women.

Fang Mingyuan glanced at it and turned around. Nakatani Naruichi took a few more glances, and Wu Anlong introduced the two of them. Both of them were relatively well-known models in Japan last year and had also participated in the filming of several TV series.

She is a relatively famous new actress in the Japanese entertainment industry.

Zhonggu Ming pulled Wu Anlong aside and lowered his voice and said: "It's such a great honor for Fang Jun to come over, so why don't you just find two new actresses? Don't you think about how high Fang Jun's vision is?"

"Although these two women are quite beautiful, who is Fang Mingyuan? They are well-known in the global entertainment industry. It can be said that those beautiful female stars are the only ones he doesn't want to see. Without him, he can't see them."

of.

"There are four new actresses on the road. These are the two who originally accompanied Governor Yoshimura. In this hurry, where can I find better candidates?" Takeru Takano also shouted helplessly, Subaru Motor Company was in the car

She is quite famous in the industry, but in the entertainment circle, she has little influence. Besides, those first-line female stars are not so easy to hire.

"Where are the actresses who endorse your Subaru Motor Company? If you don't let the news out a little, I won't believe these actresses in the entertainment industry and their economic offices. I heard that they can still put on airs if they have the opportunity to meet Fang Jun.

Don't come here!" Nakatani Ming said, and Wu Anlong brought these two new actresses, just to play golf with them and make some extra money. This kind of thing is quite common in Japanese society. As for whether these actresses will meet the guests

There will be follow-up matters, which are all matters between the two parties. Fang Mingyuan came to give him face, and he could not lose face to Fang Mingyuan. Two of Japan's top young actresses are almost the same. What's more, in his opinion

, being able to meet and talk to Fang Mingyuan, for these Japanese first-line young actresses, I am afraid they would rather pay for it. With the status of Japanese female movie stars in the global film market, they can star in Hong Kong Kumho

The supporting roles in the film group's big-budget films are enough opportunities to make them crazy!

"Pa!" Wu Anlong slapped his forehead fiercely, cursing inwardly that he was really stupid. In such an opportunity, he still asked the other party by himself? The other party should beg him!

"You have to be careful and don't go looking for those with bad conduct. Hey, didn't SM Entertainment Group just hold a charity concert? If you can't go to their female artists, Fang Jun will probably not care." Nakatani Mingyi

Yi clapped his hands and said. This kind of thing is something that everyone understands, but it is not pleasant to hear about it. If it is an actress with bad conduct, he will have to worry about what if something goes wrong, but if it is an actress under SM Entertainment Group,

Xing, that's like giving money to Fang Mingyuan, and everyone is relieved.

Wu Anlong hurried out to make arrangements, and Nakatani Mingyi came back to accompany Fang Mingyuan. Fang Mingyuan didn't care that this kind of thing was too common in the entertainment industry. Similar things happened everywhere in Hong Kong, Mainland, South Korea, Hollywood, Europe...

Unless human beings can reproduce asexually, there will be no solution to this problem even in another hundred and eighty years.

"Japan Steel Engineering Holdings Corporation and Subaru Motor Company have business relationships. How much can their annual output be?" Fang Mingyuan asked casually.

"Subaru Motors currently produces mainly at its factory in Gunma Prefecture and its overseas factory in Lafayette, a city in western Indiana, USA. The two production bases also produce some Toyota brand cars, and its own brand cars are produced approximately every year.

There could be 500,000 to 600,000 vehicles. It depends on how many Toyota brand cars it wants to produce." Nakatani thought about it.

"Total all together, there will still be a production of 700,000 to 800,000 cars, right?" Fang Mingyuan made an estimate and said. He did not think that Toyota Motor Company would let Subaru Motor Company produce Toyota cars on a large scale. First of all, it was a matter of profit. Toyota

The car company only owns a little over 16.0% of the equity of Subaru Motor Company; secondly, if that were the case, it would be better for Toyota Motor Company to build a new factory. The board of directors of Subaru Motor Company certainly does not like to let the company become a

OEM factory, after all, Subaru cars have not yet reached the point where they cannot be sold.

"This must be available. Most of it is exported overseas. The main market is the United States. It can sell five to six million units every year." Nakatani Mingyi said with some uncertainty, "I heard that a lot of them are also exported to China.

.”

"Well, there can be a sales volume of 40,000 to 50,000 vehicles every year." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile. He has also seen Subaru cars. To be honest, some of them are not in line with the mainstream aesthetics of China. It can only be said that Subaru Automobile Company has great respect for China.

consumer research, or not paying enough attention to it. However, Fang Mingyuan is more concerned about its production technology, many of which are still very valuable. But... of course it is good to be able to obtain it. If it is not available, it does not matter.

At worst, Qinchuan Samsung Automobile Group invests huge sums of money in technology research and development every year, and it is about to reach the technology harvest period after so many years. The batch of patents obtained from Chrysler Automobile Company not long ago should also be digested.

It can then be used on new cars this winter.

Fortunately for me, but for my life, his relaxed mood is more interesting than drinking coffee and chatting with Naruichi Nakatani on the streets of Karuizawa's villa area. Life should occasionally give yourself some indulgences and unplanned itineraries.

Moreover, he is not just talking about his interest in the Japanese agricultural products market.

The "April 13 East Japan Earthquake" has become a thing of the past. Although there were a lot of bumps in the road, in the end, a satisfactory result was achieved. Serious nuclear accidents were avoided, and there were no more contaminated

Wastewater enters the Pacific Ocean, and Hatoyama Yukio's position is stabilized. At least in the short term, Japan's future development direction will not be controlled by radical right-wingers. Even if it cannot reverse Japan's future political situation, at least China will

Japan and Japan can also live in peace for a few years.

Although he will die next year in his previous life, no one knows how he will go in the future. But even if he knows it, Fang Mingyuan believes that it will only play an important reference role now. The world today has changed a lot.

, and as time goes by, he believes that compared with his previous life, the changes will become bigger and bigger. This is the so-called difference of a hair, but a mistake of a thousand miles! But he believes that the longer the stability lasts, the better for China.

That means you have more time to accumulate strength.

As for the future, the future with infinite possibilities is the most fascinating! Looking at the snow-capped Mount Fuji in the distance, Fang Mingyuan felt very happy.

Torao Yoshimura is a short, fat, middle-aged man with a round face and a bald head, and his smile looks a bit like Maitreya Buddha. Accompanied by Takunori Wuyasu, he was extremely polite and respectful when he met Fang Mingyuan and Nakatani Mingichi.

As a relatively successful politician, Torao Yoshimura knows very well what he is and what he should say in front of whom. Not to mention Fang Mingyuan, it is Naruichi Nakatani, Chairman of Japan Steel Engineering Holdings Company

, it was not something he, the governor of Gunma County, could offend. So he placed himself in a very low position, and even behaved well with the two newcomers and starlets who were originally prepared for him.

Fang Mingyuan and Nakatani Naruichi also chatted with him casually, asking about the situation in Qunma County. Of course, most of the time, Fang Mingyuan was asking questions and Yoshimura Torao was answering.
