Rebirth 99 to become a car giant.

Chapter 479 Nanshan Group is getting closer to the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance

Today’s DJI is far from as powerful as later generations.

It has not even begun to rise. It belongs to a bunch of start-up companies and is not particularly outstanding.

Wang Tao also knew what level of valuation Cao Yang gave him.

So after thinking for a while, he decisively agreed.

Nanshan Battery provides the best-performing ternary lithium batteries, and even some other parts can be produced by Nanshan Auto Parts.

For DJI, this is something worth looking forward to.

The most important thing is that with this amount of funds, Wang Tao can produce the drone in his mind faster.

Of course, investing in DJI was an unexpected surprise and an unintentional move for Cao Yang.

He was very confident in Wang Tao's ability, so he did not point fingers at DJI.

Instead, it continues to focus its attention back on the automotive industry.

This definitely meets the car buying needs of some people.

"At this time, our summary meeting has received even more attention."

"You can buy a 9.99 million model at a price of 100. Many people must be very interested."

Zotye even cooperates with dealers to launch special modification services.

"For example, projects such as the production capacity arrangement of Nanshan engines and Nanshan gearboxes, the new factory construction plan, and the expansion progress of Nanshan carbon fiber and Nanshan special steel."

This matter did not involve the core interests of Nanshan Group, so Cao Yang felt that it was not impossible to give in.

"In particular, Xingchen Automobile's sales have almost doubled, which directly contributed to an output value of almost 1000 billion yuan."

Is it possible that BMW is cheating on others?

"What you said makes sense. It seems that in China, having a good relationship with a relatively influential company like Nanshan Group is of some use."

It just so happens that BMW can see the influence of Nanshan Group in the country.

Of course, you should also be able to adapt to working overtime if necessary.

With the development and growth of Nanshan Group, the influence of this conference is no longer limited to Nanshan Group.

"Nanshan Group's actions in the past six months have obviously been much more radical than in previous years. Any major news to be announced at this summary meeting is in line with everyone's expectations."

Landwind is the first Sino-Chinese joint venture between Changan Automobile and Jiangling Motors, and both shareholders have some expectations for it.

"But there is nothing they can do about the Zotye ZX6 that has been launched now. After all, the exterior design was not provided by Nanshan Group, but was created by Zotye Automobile itself."

It's not that difficult.

"Now we can prevent more models from being copied by companies like Zotye Automobile, which is a good result."

In a sense, this is also a way to figure out Nanshan Group’s true views on industry development.

If you are not careful, it may end up in the hands of the leaders of Lingnan Province.

From the iconic double-kidney grille to the design style of the interior and exterior, the Zotye ZX6 looks almost exactly like the BMW X6.

When any car company competes with Nanshan Group in the Chinese market, it must carefully consider whether the tactics it uses are normal business methods.

Otherwise, wouldn’t all the molds and equipment invested previously be useless?

"We can even learn more thoroughly and even make the car names the same."

"Okay, let's move it forward to January 1rd."

BMW, which originally dismissed the Zotye ZX6, immediately panicked.

……

"First come up with a specific plan and discuss it within the company."

And this approach can win the favor of many departments.

"Otherwise, the cost will remain high and there will be no point in making money."

"It doesn't matter if you don't go to the Suppliers Conference, but you have to attend the National Science and Technology Progress Award Ceremony to be held in the Imperial Capital on January 1th."

Who is willing to share profits with Nanshan Group?

At that time, they will bear the notoriety, but the profits will be taken away by Nanshan Group, which will make people a little depressed.

<divclass="contentadv">BMW naturally doesn't know about Landwind's news.

As the general manager of Landwind Motors, Chen Jiabing naturally has some pressure and hopes to improve the company's performance.

"When the time comes, we may be able to do something in it if the situation changes."

Especially for China's independent brands, basically none of them would be able to have the good life they have now if they left Nanshan Group.

"I'm really looking forward to how far their turnover can go this year."

Chen Jiabing agreed to Mo Fang's plan without any hesitation.

Over the years, as long as the goals mentioned in the summary meeting of Nanshan Group have basically never failed.

On the one hand, Nanshan battery technology is advanced enough, which has been basically confirmed.

"Anyway, for Zotye Motors, these two Audi models are more well-known. If we learn from them, the effect should not be bad."

By then, consumers will be able to fully feel that the Landwind X5 is the face of the BMW X5.

Early in the morning, Zeng Tingting reported something to Cao Yang that left people speechless.

If it continues to be unable to achieve any results, it is likely to be abandoned by shareholders.

Maybe one day, someone’s speech at the anniversary celebration will be used as a joke to ridicule Nanshan Group.

Seeing Luo Yi reporting on matters related to Nanshan Group, Liu Tianwu immediately put down his work and started communicating with Luo Yi.

"What you said makes sense. Then the design department will come up with the specific plan and schedule as soon as possible, and then see how much budget is needed. I will report it to the directors."

Mo Fang is the design director of Landwind Motors. Since the company was founded in 2004, it has never had a successful product, and he is under great pressure.

Cao Yang also realized that in such a special period at the end of 2008, it was very necessary for Nanshan Group to step forward to boost everyone's confidence in the economy.

Therefore, since its launch at the end of November, the sales of Zotye ZX11 have soared to more than 6 units.

All things that can be used must be fully explored for their use value.

Instead of 100 million or 50 yuan, you can own a "BMW X9.99" as long as it starts from 6 yuan.

"I think the Landwind X5 needs to avoid this mistake as much as possible and use parts from other domestic manufacturers as much as possible to keep the cost to the lowest."

"However, BMW cars should have some unique technologies, such as their four-wheel drive system. It would be difficult for us to learn from it, right?"

Phillips is a little lucky that he chose Nanshan Battery as BMW’s battery supplier.

All cities in the country are also facing various competitions.

Not to mention that the monthly sales volume exceeds that of Zotye ZX6, even if it is slightly lower, it is still worth looking forward to.

"Nanshan Group has already called us, saying that Zotye Motors' next model will no longer learn from our BMW."

However, Mo Fang proposed a bolder idea and said: "Mr. Chen, Zotye Automobile uses a large number of parts from Nanshan Group, and the cost should be high."

When Mo Fang said this, Chen Jiabing was a little hesitant.

If you buy from other suppliers, the cost will probably not be low.

"In addition, the ESP, instrument and other parts of this car were also purchased from Nanshan Auto Parts."

Luo Yi has been following the movements of Nanshan Group over the years, and he may know some contents better than Cao Yang.

"Anyway, if the other party wants to file a lawsuit with us, then let's do it slowly."

"I'll call Mr. Cao later and see if it's convenient for me to attend their summary meeting."

"Yes, but the reason why Zotye's ZX6 sells so well has something to do with the parts we provide."

"Mr. Cao, the impact of the financial crisis is getting bigger and bigger now. Even with various stimulus policies, all walks of life are still not very prosperous."

"This is even more true abroad."

This principle holds true no matter where it is.

Sooner or later, the position of martial arts leader in the automobile industry belongs to Nanshan Group.

If so, then Nanshan Group will most likely not have special countermeasures.

The group summary meeting at the beginning of each year is a meeting that everyone at Nanshan Group pays great attention to.

"Even counting from the transformation in 1999, it has been nine years."

"X5, let's build a Landwind X5, all with the styling of the BMW X5."

"X5?"

"The Zotye ZX6 is borrowed from the BMW X6. If you want to learn from Zotye, which car are you going to borrow from?"

The scale of attendance at this award ceremony is not comparable to that of ordinary OEM supplier conferences, and China Channel will even broadcast it live.

2008 is almost over, and various car companies have begun to hold various summary meetings.

Over the years, Nanshan Group has developed so fast that Liu Tianwu found that sometimes he could not keep up with the pace of changes in Nanshan Group.

"Even some news about Nanshan Semiconductor can be further publicized to the outside world. After attracting everyone's attention, it will be more conducive to recruiting talents."

“The appearance of vehicle logos is also minimized throughout the car, which plays a role in making the fakes look like the real ones.”

"To say that we support it is not to say that it is completely unreasonable."

"Isn't BMW being unreasonable?"

It's like Nanshan Group suddenly invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the semiconductor industry this year, which is a bit beyond Liu Tianwu's expectations.

"Anyway, consumers who buy this car mainly go for its appearance."

Zeng Tingting explained a little bit dumbfounded.

Chen Jiabing also has a clear understanding of the company's own strength.

“If the cost can be kept to the lowest, that would be the best.”

The most obvious one is that some matchmaking service companies directly purchased a batch of Zotye ZX6.

"If Zotye Automobile does not copy our products, then there is a high probability that it will copy Mercedes-Benz or Audi's products."

Many companies have to sell it to save some face.

"Your proposal is very good. Lingnan Province and Yangcheng City should really hope that we do this."

"Then our group's summary meeting will be held in advance during the New Year's Day holiday?"

It is definitely unreliable to study a four-wheel drive system by yourself.

Aimoha couldn't help but smile as he thought about the future scenarios where models such as the Audi Q5 and Q7, or the Mercedes-Benz ML450 would be "referenced" by Zotye.

"Mr. Chen, I think parts of the chassis that consumers can't see can be simplified appropriately to reduce costs as much as possible."

……

"Even some scumbags may even buy or rent this kind of car specifically to pick up girls."

"This time they took the initiative to share the arrangements for this conference with us for the first time. I feel that this year's summary conference may be a little different from previous years."

“Although I don’t know the final results of the awards, our group definitely has good awards.”

Once the Landwind X5 is successful, it will immediately be able to launch new models for other hot-selling luxury models such as the BMW 5 Series. By then, Landwind will also be able to occupy a place in the domestic automobile market.

They even judge the safety of the car by pressing the soft and hard parts of the hood.

This year is no exception.

Cao Yang originally supported Zotye Motors to develop BMW models because the relationship between BMW and Nanshan Group was very poor at that time.

Although the companies affiliated to Nanshan Group can win various awards such as outstanding suppliers, cost contribution awards, supply guarantee awards, and best quality awards from various OEMs every year.

On the other hand, Nanshan Group, the company behind Nanshan Battery, has extraordinary influence in the Chinese automobile industry.

"With this change, we in Yangcheng will secure our position as the largest automobile city in the country."

"Our group was established in 1992, so it has been 16 years now."

"After a few years of litigation, even if we lose in the end, we are still winners."

As long as you can complete your work on time, there will be no problem commuting to and from get off work on time every day.

As an alternative among domestic independent brands, Zotye Automobile has readjusted its development direction since last year.

"A car company that didn't have any reputation before has risen rapidly by relying on such a special tactic."

This is already Zeng Tingting's working habit.

Not to mention that this car is produced by Zotye Motors, which has no shareholding relationship with Nanshan Group. Even if it is produced by a company under Nanshan Group, it cannot be discontinued so easily.

"The more successful models currently being developed in China are generally SUVs. We also wanted to develop SUVs when we first started."

“Our engines and gearboxes are supplied not only to Zotye, but also to Chery, Geely, Great Wall, Changan, BYD and other independent brand car companies.”

"This year's Spring Festival is at the end of January. If you wait until you come back from the imperial capital meeting to hold a summary meeting, it may be a little late."

Although the parts and components of Nanshan Group are more expensive than those of other private companies, the quality is still very reliable.

"Some of the subsequent new factory construction plans will also require the support and cooperation of some suppliers."

"This is a very good opportunity to demonstrate the technical strength of our group."

"It is enough for us to make the exterior and interior as identical as possible. Anyway, most consumers will not feel the difference between the Landwind X5 and the BMW X5 when they sit in this car."

"I think this reply is basically true."

Now that Mo Fang has taken the initiative to propose a plan that seems feasible, he has no reason to object.

The rapid development of domestic independent brands in recent years is inseparable from the contribution of Nanshan Group.

"The most important thing is that relying on the ZX6, Zotye Motors may be able to sell more than 6 units next year, and even challenge 10 units."

"This model is good."

But Cao Yang really doesn't have much interest in these things now.

If he goes to a supplier conference of a certain company, there is a high probability that people will award the best award to Nanshan Group.

If not, then you are waiting to be dealt with by more abundant means.

"Mr. Cao, BMW protested to us, saying that we support Zotye's imitation of their BMW X6, which affects BMW's brand power."

Now Phillips and Aimoha are happy about Nanshan Group's reply.

Now that he had already decided to take the path of "learning from (plagiarism)", Mo Fang thought that he might as well do it more conveniently.

After all, Nanshan Group's judgment is much more reliable than the judgment opinions provided by many experts.

It would obviously be inappropriate for Cao Yang not to go this year despite being specifically told to do so.

"I think we can take this opportunity to make part of our group's plans public?"

If a company's anniversary celebration is too exaggerated, it may not be a good thing.

Regardless of the industry, the relationship between the boss and the second child is unlikely to be good.

"Frontline employees in various factories are probably considering going home early."

Who doesn’t want to make money?

As long as you take out the Zotye logo on the back of the car, change the logo on the front grille, and then dig out the Z of the ZX6, basically few people can tell whether this is a BMW X6.

Cao Yang gave the answer without any hesitation.

But now that the two parties have just signed a strategic cooperation agreement on batteries, the relationship has become a little different.

Especially when the impact of the financial crisis is increasing this year, Nanshan Group has played a decisive role in economic development in Yangcheng.

"You can talk to Zotye later and see if the Audi Q7 or Audi Q5 will be considered for the next car."

Who will bear this loss?

Everyone hopes that their city can be more first. This is all political achievement.

"Leader, Nanshan Group's year-end summary meeting is scheduled for January 1."

"Judging from the situation in the past 11 months, it is basically a high probability that the target will be exceeded this year."

"In the Zotye ZX6's promotional brochure, it is even directly mentioned as one of the promotional points that the car uses Nanshan engine and Nanshan transmission engine and gearbox."

However, Cao Yang was noncommittal about this approach.

When Zeng Tingting said this, Cao Yang did not refuse.

"Making them confident about the future is a very important thing."

And he has completely witnessed the rise of Nanshan Group.

"At that time, everyone will have to work overtime again."

A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist.

"In order to make it easier for consumers to modify it, we don't even need to install the 'Landwind Motors' logo on the rear of the car."

"That's okay, or the Audi A6L can also be considered. This car is more famous. When Zotye launches the ZA6, the people at Audi will probably be mad."

Zeng Tingting further proposed an idea.

"Mr. Chen, if Zotye Motors' ZX6 continues to sell at this level, it will take at most a year to recover the cost, and then we can start making money."

"When the time comes, you and Mi Ying coordinate the time and take this opportunity to visit various companies in the imperial capital."

So if you don’t look for BMW, who should you look for?

These two meetings are basically held by every OEM every year.

I just choose a car based on what everyone else says.

"I won't go. There are so many customers. It's easy to offend people if you go to the East's house instead of the West's. It's better not to go to any of them like in previous years."

The sales department holds dealer meetings, and the purchasing department holds supplier meetings.

Zeng Tingting's plans popped up one after another.

"The 9.99 entry-level version they came up with will probably not make much money."

However, BMW probably didn't expect that Nanshan Motors had just taken care of Zotye, but other car companies were getting ready to take action.

This is a tough nut to crack.

Mo Fang's plan was considered from the perspective of maximizing the company's profits, and Chen Jiabing could not find a reason to refute it.

Zeng Tingting did not have a good impression of Audi cars.

Now all departments attach great importance to matters related to Nanshan Group.

Most people don't understand cars at all.

Comparing the best-selling models of luxury car companies, directly creating a low-priced copycat version of Zotye can attract the attention of some consumers.

Mo Fang has a relatively good understanding of the professional level of domestic automobile consumers.

Although Cao Yang himself often works overtime, he does not particularly admire the overtime culture.

"Mr. Cao, are you still not going to attend the supplier conferences of various OEMs this year?"

"I think we can definitely learn from this path."

The BMW X6 is the first "reference" model selected by Zotye Automobile.

Then Mo Fang's position as design director will definitely be gone.

This is several times more than the sales of the BMW X6.

Be high-profile when you should be high-profile, and be low-key when you should be low-key.

"ABB, the best foreign luxury model sold in China now is Audi."

BMW also saw this, so it dared to protest to Zeng Tingting.

In previous years, there were times when I didn’t participate, and it was over.

Whether it is Lingnan Province, Yangcheng City, or even Nanshan Group's competitors and partners, they are also very concerned about the news conveyed in this meeting.

For the future benefit of Nanshan Battery, Cao Yang must have changed his mind a little.

If the safety of a car is really directly related to the hardness of the hood, we can easily make the hood hard.

"How about we just hold a large-scale anniversary celebration next year, and take this opportunity to let everyone see our group's influence and confidence in future economic development?"

Aimoha never expected that a protest would make Zotye stop production of the ZX6.

Liu Tianwu, who was itchy, came up with a very special idea.

This made Luo Yi a little embarrassed.

However, after tentatively communicating with Nanshan Group, Cao Yang actually called Liu Tianwu directly.
