Chapter 2015 Reducing motorcycle production
"Guan Hai! The assembly line of Feiyue Motorcycle has been modified?"
Now the equipment manufacturing department is taking jobs outside, which means that the new line he wants to transform has been completed.
"Only one old line was renovated, and a new line was built. The entire remodeling was completed ten days ago."
"How long have the people been walking to West Bay to change the route?"
Xiwan's Feiyue also needs to be modified, and the products of both sides must be launched simultaneously, otherwise Zhang Shiqian's old turtle will be full of snot and tears again.
"After the line was changed here, dozens of them passed by. I think one line in Xiwan will be changed before the end of the year."
There is a line that Mr. Ma is making do with.
Wan Feng nodded without saying anything. After coming out of the equipment production department, Wan Feng entered the old factory.
The old factory is now mainly the production base for two projects: motorcycle production and machine tool production.
After the project of modifying Feiyue 90's electric start and disc brakes is completed, only the EFI 100 and 125 engines that are being studied are left, and there are no new research results.
Wan Feng wants to discuss something with Chen Dao.
With the arrival of many university graduates, the scientific research force under Chen Dao has become stronger and stronger. He is no longer responsible for R&D matters and focuses more on management.
With the engine concept drawings drawn by Wan Feng, these college students could develop the engine much faster than his group.
Wan Feng found Chen Dao in the workshop.
"Uncle Chen, there are some adjustments to be made to the motorcycle production plan next year."
More than four months ago, the 90CC engine technology was finally conquered. It is said that the original technology originated from Yichu in the north. Some said the drawings were leaked and some said the technology was cracked.
Anyway, no matter what the reason is, there is no mystery about the 90CC engine anymore.
Dozens of motorcycle engine assembly plants suddenly appeared in mountain cities.
Regardless of the different manufacturers of these engines, the technology is carved from the same mold. They are all born from the same mother, so what's the difference?
It has even reached the point where no drawings or designs are required, as long as various parts are available on the market, production can be completed.
It is not surprising that there are so many small engine assembly plants popping up.
From the end of this year to next year, Wanfeng predicts that there will be at least more than six million 90CC motorcycle engines on the market.
The core of a motorcycle is the engine. With the engine, it is not a big problem to build a complete vehicle.
The emergence of these engines will inevitably create dozens or even hundreds of vehicle manufacturing plants, which will have a catastrophic impact on the motorcycle market in 1995.
Even if China's economy has grown at a rate of more than 13% year after year after the designer's southern tour, and even if people already have a lot of spare money in their hands, they still can't afford tens of millions of motorcycles.
At present, the four major motorcycle manufacturers, Nanwan, Jialing, Qingqi and Jincheng plus Xingfu, Qianjiang and other enterprises, have an annual output of about 5 million motorcycles.
In 1994, these factories produced so many motorcycles, and they were basically in balance with the market.
In other words, the number of motorcycles currently on the market that can be digested is about 5 million units per year, and if the budget is large enough, it can barely reach 6 million units.
This is the limit.
There are now six million more motorcycle engines on the market out of thin air, and at least two-thirds of these engines will be turned into complete vehicles.
With four million more motorcycles on the market, the seller's market will completely transform into a buyer's market.
The only result is that there will inevitably be a price melee, with vehicle prices falling sharply. After the melee, some car companies with weak technology and power will be wiped out in the waves.
But there are bound to be some car companies that survive the difficulties and survive and enter the second round of competition in the market.
"Will so many engines enter the market this year?" Chen Dao is obsessed with management and research and development every day and doesn't know much about the outside world.
But the number of six million still shocked him.
"This is still a conservative estimate. Maybe there will be more products produced than this number."
"So how do we deal with this mess?"
"One is to reduce production, and the other is to upgrade technology. The production of AX100 vehicles will be reduced by 100,000 units, and the engine will be reduced by 100,000 units. The production of scooters will be increased by 100,000 units. As for Feiyue vehicles, hasn't a line been renovated?
Use this modified line to produce, and the other line will be stopped and replaced with a new line."
The transformed Feiyue line can produce the Feiyue 90 with electric start and disc brakes. It will take at least two years for the OEMs to conquer these two technologies. In two years, the Nanwan area may be all 100 and 125.
Got a motorcycle.
100 and 125 will last for a long time, and there will be models such as curved beams in the middle.
When these models are almost ready, electric motorcycles will appear.
"Xiao Wan! Are we making a fuss over this? We are considered a time-honored car company in China. Those messy car companies may not be able to shake our position. Besides, aren't there catalog restrictions? It is impossible to have such a situation.
Many automakers."
Wan Feng smiled: "Uncle Chen! You still don't seem to understand us Chinese people. There are countermeasures for the entire car. This is not empty talk. You probably don't know about catalog sales. In fact, our factory has also bought catalogs before.
, but we rejected him. Not everyone rejected him, you know that shameless Xie Changju, right?"
Wan Feng gritted his teeth when he talked about this guy. My reputation was almost ruined by this turtle egg.
Of course Xie Changju and Chen Dao knew about it. He bought an AX100 production line half a year ago, and the employees were trained by Nanwan people.
It has been officially produced for more than three months now. It is said that the products are mainly sold in Hai Thanh, Bac Noi Gate, the capital.
Not sure how exactly.
"Remember, this guy is as thick-skinned as you."
Wan Feng is depressed, am I the same as him? He is a scoundrel, am I a scoundrel?
"Xie Changju uses our catalog. Although we are an old car company, what we want is to always be one step ahead and not to fight with them or beat the old master to death with random punches. These words are not empty talk."
Nanwan won't fight with them, it will cost too much.
"Didn't the equipment department build a new line?"
"Stop the unmodified line and replace it with this new line. We will produce a new type of Feiyue 90 after the year."
The new Feiyue 90 is of course more expensive than the old Feiyue. Next year we will have to look at this one to see if we can stand alone.
Wanfeng has nothing to worry about other cars for the time being. There is no direct conflict between the AX100 and the 90 cars. The only thing that is affected is the selling price. At most, it can be lowered.
Nanwan itself is the only one making scooters with this displacement in the country, so instead of cutting back, it has expanded its production by 100,000 units.
Chapter completed!
