Chapter 653 Mergers and Acquisitions
Chapter 653: Merger and Acquisition of Changhe
After talking to the R&D team, Chen Yongmian learned that these people were also very fast. They had already prepared a one-to-one ratio sludge model, entered the computer to build a three-dimensional model, and had conducted design demonstrations and drills on the computer many times.
Thanks to his father Chen Ze's help, Chen Yongmian was able to get two high-performance medium-sized computers, build a database and conduct simulation tests, greatly speeding up the development of cars.
Now, we are doing simple production work through the only equipment in our hands.
To be honest, it is not impossible to make such a car. After all, there are leveling machines and stamping machines in the gear factory he has built.
However, the power is relatively small, and it cannot form a flow-through production or a large number of production. However, it is not impossible to produce more than a dozen vehicles, it is just a time-consuming process.
Moreover, he also has high-precision machine tools created from the Industrial and Economic Union. Although he only made two sets of these machine tools for the technicians in the factory to trouble the factory, these two sets alone were enough to complete the production of dozens of engines and gearboxes.
Fortunately, Chen Yongmian was willing to invest in this regard, so he let them do it. Not only did he encourage them to do it, he also wanted them to do it more. It would be better to wait until he got back and drive the car he designed.
After all, he is the big boss himself, so he doesn't want to do everything himself. Let these people do it as soon as possible, so that they can improve their abilities, so that they will have better development in the future.
After completing the negotiations with Longyuan Group, Chen Yongmian's next company was still in Liuzhou City, which is Shaw Brothers in automobile painting.
With the experience of negotiating with Long Yuan and Ruijin Company, the negotiations with Shaw Company went smoothly. Soon the two parties finalized a supply contract of 1.8 million yuan, and also a forward contract prepared for future expansion.
After a round of the south, Chen Yongmian's procurement was basically completed, but after this round, he spent about 14 million Chinese yuan.
If the machinery and equipment he purchased was in place, then a factory with an annual output of 250,000 cars would be formed.
At the beginning, Chen Yongmian did not dare to set his goal too high. He expected that the development situation of the domestic automobile industry in recent years would be a booming development. It would be great if he was a fledgling young man who could lead a company into this market. He didn't want to become a fat man in one bite.
Even if his father is Chen Ze, it is better for an entrepreneur to be down-to-earth. This is not financial stock investment.
As of now, no domestic auto company, whether private or state-owned, dares to invest as much as it does to buy production lines crazily.
After all, although the country strongly supports economic development, who can tell the future exactly?
The United States and Western Europe are not calm now. If war starts again that day, the investment will be wasted. So even if you want to invest in construction, everyone is careful and try to start the water first.
After completing the procurement, it has entered January, and most parts of China have also entered the deep winter season. Needless to say, Changchun is in the snow and ice.
But Chen Yongmian didn't dare to stay in Liuzhou for too long. Although it was warmer than the north, Chen Yongmian was also used to the climate in the south. However, he was always thinking about the new car he designed, so where could he linger in Liuzhou?
So Chen Yongmian made up his mind and asked his secretary to book a ticket and return to the headquarters of Pegasus Power Group in Changchun. This time he went back not only to see the new car he participated in the design, but also to continue to lead the research team to develop several new cars.
Judging from the current automobile market, it is not enough for his company to launch only one new car next year. He has to continue working hard and quickly take up some new pitfalls, so that those latecomers can only follow their butts and eat dust.
Otherwise, those large automobile companies will be quite efficient. Once they realize that they are a dark horse entering the automobile market, they will soon speed up their original R&D plans and come up with new models to fight their cars. At that time, many good topics that can be developed will turn into flow.
Currently, China also has several automobile companies with strong technical strength. Their scale is certainly not as good as the Tianyu Group behind Chen Yongmian. But at least in the automotive field, they are a formidable giant, and there are even a few who originally developed military vehicles.
Chen Yongmian didn't want to spend several years to file a patent lawsuit with the other party.
When the plane arrived in Changchun City, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. Chen Yongmian did not return to the hotel he had been booked for a long time, but went directly to the gear factory under the Pegasus Power Group.
The secretary and clerk who accompanied me had long been used to it, so they had to follow Chen Yongmian's butt with a wry smile. While enjoying good treatment, they must follow the boss's footsteps all the time, otherwise their jobs would be dangerous.
The group of people took a special car to the gear factory. Unexpectedly, there was also a group of people in the gear factory that had not gotten off work. When Chen Yongmian took his secretary to the door of the car laboratory, everyone was stunned!
A streamlined black sedan that is elegant and domineering, soft but not lacks masculine beauty is quietly lying at the door of the laboratory.
Is this the car we produce?
In this era, the appearance of cars is relatively rough and simple, like square iron boxes. Or it is the beetle produced by General Motors in the United States, which is really not beautiful.
However, Chen Yongmian was not satisfied with the current situation of the times, especially when he saw the model patterns of future cars from the Tianyu Group's database, it seemed as if something had exploded in his mind, and a new design concept gradually took shape in his thoughts.
That streamlined elegance and beauty, he wanted to create the nobles in the car!
When Chen Yongmian led his business team into the laboratory, the lab was still brightly lit. Although it was already very late, Zeng Yinghong, Liu Jianfeng, and some other fanatical technicians gathered here, still studying and polishing, and assembling another car.
Liu Jianfeng's eyes were pointed, and he saw Chen Yongmian walking in at a glance, so he quickly greeted him with a smile, "Yongmian, when will he be back?"
"You just got off the plane and rushed over. You are fast enough. One of them has been produced so quickly..."
"One? You underestimate our technical team too much. We have produced more than a dozen of them, but they are all divided by those qualified guys..."
When Liu Jianfeng heard Chen Yongmian say this, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy and produced one. Don't you look down on us? You should know that our factory now has a technical team of more than 300 people. Even the newly built automobile factory in Xinghua News Agency has only a technical team of more than 100 people.
"Haha, let me tell me how it was produced?"
Chen Yongmian looked at the car outside and the other three models waiting to be assembled on the bench fixture, and his heart was also filled with heat.
"Hehe, thank you Master Fan. He has a great face. You know that we have tools such as stamping, and you have also created many precision machine tools. However, you have to open the mold before stamping. You also know the level of mold making in our factory. In the end, Master Fan was using the mold machines you got from Guangzhou and took his apprentice to work for more than 20 days. Then he made several sets of high-precision molds. Then the rest was simple, stamping, hole-punching, and then assembled and formed."
Liu Jianfeng said to Chen Yongmian with satisfaction.
"What about painting? We don't have spray equipment, how do you solve the spraying problem?"
"Hehe, you have to thank me for this. I have been in a military vehicle factory before. Although I was not very successful, I still know many people. Not long ago, I contacted a friend in the spraying workshop of the Changchun military vehicle factory and stuffed him some money. One night, when they had no painting task, they took our car over to spray it."
When Liu Jianfeng mentioned this topic, he looked even more proud. Looking at his current appearance, his tail seemed to be about to rise to the sky.
"Haha, okay, I will definitely not forget you. I will add a bonus to you by the end of this month."
Chen Yongmian was very happy when he heard that this was the solution.
"Oh! I said Yongmian, there is no need for bonuses. You know, I came here for money, hehe, but. If this test car is finished, can you give me one..."
When Chen Yongmian heard Liu Jianfeng say nothing, he knew that the other party must have something to say. Unexpectedly, it was such a request. Liu Jianfeng was born a technical maniac and a guy who loves cars as much as his life, so it was not an exaggeration for him to make such a request.
"Haha, okay, no problem. When the road test is over, I will give you one." If Chen Yongmian does not agree to such a request, then he will be too unfavorable.
"Haha, it's your fault..."
"Blame me? Why should I blame me?" Chen Yongmian felt even more strange when he heard Liu Jianfeng say this.
"Who asked you to design this car so beautifully? You don't know when the car was first made, Wang Gong, Li Gong, and even Mr. Chen, who was engaged in diesel engines, were snatching it up and snatching it. Wang Xian had long said that this was a test car, but in order to drive the car, these old people were scrambling to be test drivers. Tell me, a group of senior engineers were scrambling to be test drivers. Do you think it's not your fault?"
"Oh? So that's the case, that's really interesting." Chen Yongmian couldn't help but burst into laughter when he heard this.
The next morning, Chen Yongmian arrived at the factory early. As soon as he arrived at the factory, he saw a lot of workers gathered behind the factory. Many workers who had no tasks in the factory now ran to the back to see the test drive.
I don’t know when a piece of open space was cleared out from behind the factory. Although the site is not big, it is enough for those guys to struggle.
The newly built cars are now in the road test stage. To put it bluntly, they are hard to get the road surface, and go wherever there are many bumpy slopes. They also need to go to some extreme environments to experiment, such as going to desert areas with many sandstorms in Inner Mongolia, high altitudes over the **, and in extremely cold environments where there are no snow in summer.
In short, it is to understand, summarize and solve the various situations encountered by the car in the shortest time.
This is the only way for each new car to design, shape and launch. If it is another newly designed car, there will definitely be problems of one kind or another.
But Chen Yongmian believed that the car he designed would never have such problems, because the powertrain, chassis, and body shape he designed had been tested after repeated trials.
He asked the secretary to call Wang Xian to his office, and then Chen Yongmian began to ask about his recent situation in the factory and the tasks he had assigned before leaving the factory.
Before he left the factory to go for a large-scale purchase in Europe, he had already divided the shares and paid attention to the situation of the several car factories in the city that were about to go bankrupt. Once there was a suitable partner, he would take action immediately.
He left for more than a month and didn't know how this happened.
"Mr. Chen, we have contacted the city and have proposed a acquisition proposal for Changhe Automobile Manufacturing Company. The city is currently undergoing review." Seeing that Chen Yongmian asked this question, Wang Xian immediately began to explain to Chen Yongmian.
As early as when Hualian had just unified the south, this Changhe Automobile Manufacturing Company made spare parts for large state-owned enterprises such as local military vehicle factories in Liuzhou. Later, the industry in Liuzhou was saturated and the north was decided, so Changhe Company moved the factory to Changchun with preferential policies provided by the government.
Later, due to the counterattack of the Far East, China and the Soviet Union fought fiercely, and a large number of military-industrial orders made the private enterprise famous. In recent years, they have even formed an army and began to develop trucks and cars themselves.
The development of sedans was not satisfactory, but once, their large trucks, buses, and diesel series agricultural machinery were very popular.
Unfortunately, the drawbacks of traditional family private enterprises soon buried this once very successful enterprise. The boss of Changhe Automobile Factory was another desperate brain who didn't believe in people from other families and used his own relatives. As a result, once the factory operation improved a little, the elders in the family began to install their own people in it.
As a result, he soon became an outsider and an insider. His management was chaotic and his leader was incompetent, and he only cared about putting money in his pocket. As a result, he had been struggling for more than a year and had already caused a medium-sized car factory with an annual output of over 10,000 and a single annual output of 10,000 vehicles.
As early as the summer of 1946, Changhe Automobile Factory had stopped production and dismissed most of the workers. Now they are waiting to make the final profit by betraying their factories and machines.
"Well, what is the opinion in the city? What is the offer you gave them?"
"The offer we gave was 8 million, and we will take over the Changhe Automobile Factory as a whole and accept the remaining more than 600 workers. However, we do not plan to take over the debts of the Liuhe Automobile Factory. You know that Jilin is a major industrial province. I heard that it needs to be rectified properly, and the government has also spread the slogan to revitalize the northern industrial base, so the city leaders have been unable to form a unified opinion for a long time."
As a management talent who understands technology, Chen Yongmian feels relieved when doing things, but at present, he does not need Wang Xian to worry too much about technology. He needs him to help him with more advice in management.
Wang Xian’s words just now were very clear and his answers were very satisfying to Chen Yongmian.
In the subsequent Q&A, Wang Xian strongly recommended Chen Yongmian to acquire the parent and automobile company. Chen Yongmian had not had time to conduct market research, so he was not very clear about why Wang Xian's persistence.
"Okay, let me tell you that the location of Changhe Automobile Factory is located in the southeast corner of Changchun City, which is far away from our factory area, but their geographical location is very superior. I think so. Mr. Chen, you also mentioned to me not long ago that after the country's economy develops, commercial real estate will become the focus of future development. I agree with this view."
First, I flattered Chen Yongmian, and then talked about my own opinions. As a subordinate, it is not OK to always "recommend" it. Speaking is also an art. You cannot just say what is right, but you also have to say something nice, so that the leader can listen more easily.
"In fact, in my opinion, the location of Changhe Automobile Factory is not very suitable for us as a village industrial land. It is too close to the urban area and densely populated areas. In the future, according to my estimate, if the real estate industry develops, it is likely that it will become an emerging commercial hotspot."
Wang Xian was not at all nervous. When talking to Chen Yongmian, he began to show his uniqueness as a manager.
"The total area of Changhe Automobile Manufacturing Factory is about 30,000 acres. It is a large automobile factory. For us, our acquisition of Changhe is just for the ready-made machines and factories there, and helping the municipal government solve employment problems. The key is that this price is very cost-effective, and not every automobile factory with a military background will be poorly managed."
After saying so much, Chen Yongmian understood it, so he followed Wang Xian's idea and immediately made a decision and began to prepare for the specific acquisition matters.
