Chapter 253 The first big jump in prices
I have to say that after a few years, the leader has actually calmed down on the issue of car exports and foreign exchange earnings, and the leaders also clearly know how big the gap in China is compared to foreign countries.:...m/
Not to mention, the Jetta sedan, which is very popular in China, has been treated coldly in Europe and the United States, which means that it is not something that people who are good cars will buy, and the domestic sedan industry still has a long way to go.
One is that the car industry has a short development time and the brand benefits are almost zero. The other is that the sales system is not sound and there is no stable cooperative relationship with foreign sellers. The service system is lacking, the after-sales service is imperfect, and the supply of spare parts is short. All of this has caused buyers to wait and see.
There is also the mature European and American sedan markets and fierce competition among automobile companies. This model of Jetta has such strong competitors as Germany, Volkswagen, France, Citroen, etc. in Europe. The Jetta model in the United States is not likable. Americans seem to be born to dislike Jetta. Perhaps the strong German flavor on this car can easily remind Americans of the Germans' clear face, which is very rustic!
Now a new automobile factory has emerged in Bincheng, which puts great pressure on Binqi. It turns out that the situation of combining many favors will soon be gone!
The Accord series of sedans produced by Harbin Auto were quickly sent to the central government for inspection. The national leaders got on the car personally and praised it after taking it. After that, the Accord sedan was not only on the Central News Agency, but also received praise from senior leaders. The wide body, simple and atmospheric design, and the spacious and comfortable driving experience inside. The conclusion is that this car has a quality that is not inferior to that of imported cars!
After the news came back to Hafei, all the factory employees celebrated warmly, and their cars were recognized by the central leaders. The leaders of Hafei were even more happy. They finally had a good product!
The news from BJ made Binqi's management feel uncomfortable. The Accord's grade is not comparable to Jetta in any case. Therefore, Li Gang organized a meeting to improve the Jetta model, making Jetta bigger and more luxurious to achieve the size and comfort of a real mid-to-high-end sedan!
They got a photo of the Audi 100 model, and after research and decision, they upgraded according to the size and style of the car.
Lin Johnson is very supportive of Binqi's independent innovation actions, and most of the latecomers start with imitation. As long as you know how to do it yourself, it's good.
Lin Johnson saw that the new car was designed to look more and more like the Passat B2. He felt funny. He patted and pulled the Jetta and became a new car. The Binqi leaders' ideas were very correct!
Santana. This is the new car improved by Binqi! Lin Johnson thought to himself that if SAIC should cooperate with the Germans as soon as possible, I am afraid that Santana will be the one that will be goodbye to them!
After research and decision by the national commercial department, the price of the Accord car produced by Harbin Auto is positioned at 122,000 yuan per vehicle. This price surprised Lin Qiangsheng. Has the domestic price adjustment speed accelerated?
Sure enough, not long after, a notice from the superior department caused Binqi's Jetta sedan to rise from the original price of more than 30,000 yuan to 89,000 yuan per vehicle. The price increased by nearly three times!
The notice came, which made Binqi's factory leaders very confused. Who can afford a car at such a high price? But the market gave them a deep feeling. After the price was adjusted, the buyer started to laugh at the person who bought it. The price was adjusted almost within one day. Many car buyers were still hesitant, but they were soon overwhelmed by a large number of buyers.
The intuitive feeling brought to society by price adjustment is that commodity prices continue to rise, and people's earnings cannot keep up with the pace of price increases. This has caused widespread anxiety and mentality in society, and to a certain extent, it has caused a wave of buying a car in some areas. Many waiters who want to buy cars are afraid that the price may rise, and driven by panic, they also participated in the car purchase action with other buyers.
At this time, they no longer had other cars to choose from, and they could not wait for the large number of Ha Automobile's mid-to-high-end Accord sedans to be launched on the market. Ordering calls from all over the country entered the headquarters of the two companies to inquire about vehicle purchases. In order to buy a car, they would not hesitate to wait for a year!
Binqi and Harbin Automobile ushered in a bumper harvest this autumn. Each car in Binqi earned more than before after adjusting its price. The car industry is indeed a huge profit industry! This is also an era of huge profits!
At this time, the hot market no longer cares whether the grade and quality of the car need to be tested, nor whether the car you bought has after-sales service. As long as it is a car produced by these two factories, please order it first.
Binqi workers have accumulated a long time of production experience, but Harbin Auto encountered great difficulties in production. At the beginning, mass production of cars encountered hot sales, which seemed incredible to leaders such as Fu Yulong, and it really caught the entire factory off guard!
Therefore, Lin Johnson suggested to Fu Yulong that he would cooperate with Kema Company for another month, and that these experienced foreigners would give employees one more month of guidance so that the current production rhythm would not be chaotic and unbalanced.
"How much foreign exchange is required to keep so many foreigners!" Fu Yulong shook his head repeatedly and did not dare to agree.
Lin Qiangsheng shrugged and spread his hands and said, "Or let foreigners stay for another month for guidance, otherwise the current production rhythm will soon collapse. You choose!"
Fu Yulong stomped his feet hesitantly, turned to Lin Qiangsheng and said simply: "The factory cannot apply for foreign exchange now. Can you foreign parties help advance funds? We will make up for it with RMB?"
"Yes, settle at 1 to 2.8!" Lin Qiangsheng said happily.
"Okay! I'll contact my superiors now and request a portion of the payment for the factory's surplus!" Fu Yulong gritted his teeth and immediately contacted the State Administration of Commerce to request a batch of payments.
Lin Johnson attaches great importance to Harbin Automobile, and this company is positioned by him as a car company that pursues excellent technology. After mass production of Accord cars, he quickly established an automobile technology research and development department within the company to explore and research engine technology, body structure, chassis system, etc. Relying on the original Harbin Automobile's full technical strength and abundant research and technical personnel, the technical foundation of this car manufacturer is much better than that of Binqi!
Develop higher-tech products on a good platform to continuously strengthen product technology. If Hafei's solid technical foundation makes the automobile factory weaker and weaker, such an inexplicable thing, Lin Johnson will not allow it to happen in his own hands!
On the last day of October, the teaching building of Feixiang Technical School was officially completed. Gu Ming found more than 100 odd workers from the street to clean the entire building.
These more than 100 people worked very hard to clean the five-story building. Gu Ming planned to give each person a salary of 20 yuan.
Lin Qiangsheng felt that it was too little, so he simply gave 50 yuan per person, and more than 100 people were more than 5,000 yuan. He had other purposes for these people.
"Everyone, I have given you so much wages, and I also have a requirement! That is, I will promote the Feixiang Technical School in the streets and alleys!" Lin Qiangsheng shouted loudly.
These people usually squatted on the street, just looking for change jobs and helping them out, and they are all unemployed vagrants. Today, I earned 50 yuan by cleaning alone, and I am still very grateful.
Someone said, "That's sure, you gave us so much wages, and we are willing to say good things to you. What school is this? What is it to teach? We can also tell others!"
Lin Qiangsheng looked at this person. He was only 30 years old and was less than 40 years old. Lin Qiangsheng smiled and said, "My school teaches car driving skills, cars, big goods, excavators, we teach them here! And we can also help students go to the vehicle management office to register for the ticket exam, the tuition fee is 300 yuan! Two months of study time, you can guarantee you 2 hours of getting on the bus every day! You can teach and have a lesson!"
"So it's a driving technique! You can learn to drive here in the future?" The man asked in confusion.
Everyone was talking, and Lin Qiangsheng continued: "Of course, you can teach driving skills here in the future and register for the ticket exam! You can also introduce students to the school, introduce a student to you for an introduction fee of 30 yuan, introduce more and earn more money!"
"A student's introduction fee of 30 yuan is so profitable!" Soon more than a hundred people knew about Lin Johnson's promise. The introduction person actually had an introduction fee, and it became lively.
"Will you also give me money to introduce relatives?" someone asked after thinking for a moment.
"Anyone can do it. As long as you can introduce someone to study, you will be given a 30 yuan introduction fee! Whether you are recruiting people on the street or promoting around relatives and neighbors, you will give it to them as long as you come and study!" Lin Qiangsheng shouted loudly.
"Okay, wait, I'll go to my relative's house to promote it now! Is it a tuition fee of 300 yuan? Can you give me some discounts?"
Lin Qiangsheng smiled and said, "300 yuan is the lowest, and the fuel consumption of vehicles is all about money! You can go to the city's vehicle management office to inquire. If you don't have 1,000 yuan, you won't want to learn to drive!"
Everyone thinks that this is true. Not to mention 1,000 yuan, I'm afraid that ordinary people don't even have the qualifications to learn to drive. That is recommended by enterprises and units based on the number of places. They also have to teach the car master to take the ticket exam before they let you take the ticket exam. Being able to drive a car in these days is considered a very advanced profession.
Lin Qiangsheng's trick was really good. More than 100 people spread it through one and ten hundred people, and the effect of the introduction fee was soon revealed. Whether it was the person who came here to work, many people who heard about this matter were introduced with a try-and-see attitude and really received 30 yuan. The reputation of Feixiang Technical School quickly became well-known to the whole city.
"I want to learn driving skills to Feixiang Technical School! I want to learn car maintenance, cooking, and hairdressing, please go to Feixiang Technical School! Feixiang Technical School will teach you how to fly!" (To be continued.)
