Rebirth of the Auto Giant

Chapter 152 Weird truth

Wang Shi stayed at home until the third grade of junior high school. He returned to Beijing with his wife and children, and his mother returned to Beijing. His younger sister, his third brother, and the others came back later.

During the Chinese New Year, Wang Shi took care of his wife and children and went back to his grandmother's house with his mother. He gave out red envelopes, all of which were big red envelopes worth five yuan each. The biggest one was given to his grandmother, which was five hundred yuan.

My father said that I would not go to Beijing for the time being, as there would be no one there to chat with and I would be bored, and it would be like being in jail.

Now that the land in the village has been contracted to each household, and the commune has been abolished, the people have changed their previous attitude of eating from a big pot. Now that the land is contracted to each household, they can do whatever they want, and they are full of energy.

For the Wang family, the people in the village can only envy and envy them, and some who are unbalanced in their hearts also hate them, but there is nothing they can do. Who can let their children be capable?

On the first day of work after returning to Beijing, secretary Huang Ruifei came in and told Wang Shi that the Ministry of Transport would have a meeting in three days and Wang Shi was invited to attend.

"Do you know what it's about?" Wang Shi asked.

"I didn't say, it should be a meeting related to cars." Huang Ruifei replied.

"Okay, I understand. Is there anything that happened during my absence?"

"No big deal."

"Okay, you call Deputy Director Wang."

Soon, Wang Rubiao came over and reported to Wang Shi the orders he had approved during Wang Shi's absence. Wang Shi saw that they were more than 100,000 yuan, as well as money distributed to various supporting factories. There was no problem.

, Wang Shi affirmed the other party's ability to do things face to face.

On the finance side, Zhao Min, the proprietress, also checked the financial statements and found that there were no problems.

Three days came quickly, and Wang Shi drove his car to the meeting location.

This is a conference room in the office building of the Ministry of Transport. Five automobile industry associated companies were also present at the meeting.

Dongfeng Automotive Industry Associated Company, with Second Automobile Works as the core, and Dongfeng brand automobile series products as the leader; Jiefang Automobile Industry Associated Company, with FAW as the core, Jiefang brand automobile series products as the leader; Nanjing Automotive Industry Associated Company, with Nanjing Automobile as the core

, the Yuejin brand automobile series products are the leader; the heavy-duty vehicle industry joint venture company, with Jiqi Automobile, Sichuan Automobile and Shaanxi Automobile as the core, heavy-duty vehicle products as the leader; the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei automobile industry joint venture company, with BAIC as the core, Beijing and Beijing series

The product is the leader.

The arrival of Wang Shi's switch caused a lot of commotion.

"He is Wang Shi who contracted Qianfeng Machinery Factory."

"Qianfeng Machinery Factory has done a lot in the past two years. Qianfeng tractors are selling like hotcakes across the country. Now they have opened sales points in many places across the country. It turns out that all of our customers have been taken away by them."

"Who says it's not the case? They set up a sales department, and the sales staff go directly to sell products door-to-door, and they sell them cheaply. If they do this again, our original companies will buy their products, and now they have seized many of our customers, and they have no business.

If we don’t care, if we continue to do this, our lives will be even more miserable.”

"Our sales have been declining in recent months. When I inquired about it, I found out that others had bought tractors, and the prices were cheaper than ours."

In the past, everyone just abided by the rules, but now Qianfeng Machinery Factory has broken the original rules by doing this. Qianfeng Machinery Factory is very popular, and several joint automobile companies have had a big impact. No one is convinced.

Now that I see Wang Shi turning on and off the Mercedes Benz, I feel even more jealous.

Wang Shi had already expected this and didn't take it seriously.

Today is a market economy, and everything is determined by the market. Anyone who follows the original method and fails to keep up with the times will be eliminated by the market.

The meeting was mainly attended by leaders of various automobile affiliated companies and leaders of relevant departments.

"It turns out that this meeting was supposed to be held years ago, but some things were delayed and it has been postponed until now." The leader of the relevant department opened the meeting on the presiding stage and said, "This meeting is mainly to discuss some issues that have arisen recently.

Let’s have a discussion. We are all the main leaders of various associated companies and experts in this field, as well as some private contracting companies. If you have any problems at work, please bring them up. We will discuss them and then find solutions together.

." The leader of the regulatory department said.

What followed were speeches by some experts on recent issues that have arisen in the automotive industry.

"Let me say a few words." On the host stage, an expert stood up, took the speech script and said into the microphone: "In the past two years, our investigation has found that the number of cars has increased greatly, causing traffic on the roads.

The congestion is very serious. If it continues like this, it will have a negative impact on people's lives... Taking all aspects into consideration, I think we should restrict the production and sales of automobiles in each unit." The other party made a lot of sense, and the only problem was

One is to limit the sales of cars.

The speech was supported by many businesses.

Next, several automobile affiliated companies also talked about some of the problems they have encountered recently, both in production and in technology. Many of them are caused by equipment updates that cannot keep up, and some lathes that are old and cannot keep up, resulting in the production of

The parts cannot meet certain requirements in terms of processing accuracy.

These are common phenomena. Now the country's automobile industry has just started. The industrial level has fallen behind that of the West for decades. In addition, the West blocks our technology. If you want to import some high-precision lathes, they won't sell them to you.

There is no way to solve this incident until more than forty years later, let alone now.

However, restricting vehicle sales has received support from everyone.

"Why do you feel like this is all directed at me?" Wang Shi felt worse and worse towards the end.

The meeting lasted until noon, and some targeted methods and measures were decided upon.

"Today's meeting is here for the time being. Does anyone have anything to add?" the leader of the regulatory department looked at everyone and asked.

"Let me say a few words." It's no good if you don't say it. If sales are restricted, how will you make money?

"Okay, this is Wang Shi from Qianfeng Machinery Factory. Director Wang, now the contractor of Qianfeng Machinery Factory, has done well in the past two years, and sales have been increasing. You can see it just by looking at the car Wang Shi drives.

"The leader said.

"I just make a little money and barely make ends meet. I have more than a thousand employees, which is barely enough to pay workers," Wang Shi said modestly.

Sure enough, the big tree attracts the wind.

"Director Wang's words are very modest. Who in Beijing doesn't know that your Qianfeng Machinery Factory's bonus salary is the highest. If you have to say it is reluctant, it should be us." said the leader of the Jiefang Automobile Industry Joint Venture Company.

Wang Shi did not answer the other party's words. "I just heard from several experts about the issue of limiting car sales. I am opposed to it." Wang Shi said negatively.

"Here he is, he dares to object to what the experts say. Really, how can he be so professional?"

"It's hard to say, he is a car repairman."

As soon as Wang Shi came out, he objected to what the experts just said, which made many people think that Wang Shi was a bit arrogant.

"Normally, if this sales restriction is passed, it will be a fatal blow to the now popular Qianfeng Tractor. I don't object to it."

When the experts and scholars on the stage heard Wang Shi's objection, they asked, "I wonder what Factory Director Wang has to say?"

Wang Shi said calmly: "I can't speak highly of you. I'm just sharing my own opinion." After that, he continued: "I think limiting the sales of cars will do all kinds of harm to the people."

"We should not restrict car sales when we see car congestion. With the deepening of reform and opening up, people's lives will get better and better, and their wallets will become bigger and bigger. In the future, cars will enter thousands of households.

Private car ownership will also increase, which is social progress and a trend."

"We often say that it is better to clear up the problem than to block it, so why not start from other aspects."

"Not only must we develop automobiles, we must also develop highway and urban transportation construction accordingly and improve the level of transportation management. While developing automobile production, we must greatly increase investment in highway construction and transportation management."

Cars and roads are a pair of contradictions, which both restrict and promote each other.

Due to the large transportation volume and high speed of automobiles, the transportation volume can be greatly increased on the same road; however, if only more cars are added without increasing roads, of course, traffic jams will occur.

There are still very few roads in the country, and the road surface quality is very low. There are no expressways, and there are many cobble roads, washboard roads, and dirt roads. The road surface is narrow, traffic management is backward, the traffic flow is poor, and the transportation efficiency is extremely low. Therefore, the transportation efficiency is extremely low.

, To develop transportation, we must not only develop automobiles, but also develop highways and urban transportation construction accordingly. Of course, we must also improve the level of transportation management. While developing automobile production, we must greatly increase investment in highway construction and traffic management.
