Lin Qiangsheng has been advertising in Chery Automobile Factory in Q City these days, and the company has attracted many curious people to call for consultation.

They learned in their hometown, either through newspapers or through TV that this automobile factory not only provides cooperation opportunities, but also helps partners start businesses. Many people came to Q City thousands of miles away with the idea of ​​trying it out.

Chery organizes these people to participate in a one-month training to teach them the sales skills and repair techniques of cars.

Many people want to be sellers. Cars are a big money-making deal. The threshold for micro cars is low, making them very suitable for weak partners.

Lin Johnson also said that he would do it. After a month of training, many experts with car repair technology took the lead in receiving the cooperation agreement. They signed a sales contract with Chery Automobile Company, and then returned to their hometown with anxiety and hope.

Chery Automobile Company has also established several sales areas such as Beijing-Tianjin, Central Plains, Southeast and Southwest, Northwest, Shandong, Hubei, Anhui, Hunan, Guangdong, and Chongqing, and has begun to ship goods to all parts of the country, rapidly expanding its sales scope.

Although this van produced by Chery has removed the off-road four-wheel drive function of the original model, the chassis is solid and the power is strong, and it is very popular after it was launched on the market.

Lin Qiang-Cheng-Cheng, who was constantly listening to reports in the office, suddenly received a call from Beijing. Zhao Hongbo told him happily that Hyundai Motor Company had obtained passenger car production qualifications.

Lin Qiangsheng was shocked and asked quickly: "Brother Zhao, what's going on? How could it be so easy to obtain qualifications? Have you signed a contract with BAIC?"

Zhao Hongbo laughed and said, "I couldn't imagine that we would provide four cars to China Automobile Company. At first I went to the Economic Commission, Planning Commission, Public Security, and Transportation Department. Finally, I found that China Automobile Company had the final say.

The old factory director Li Gang explained to me that I only understood what was going on. In 1985, the country abolished the evil one-couple payment, received a license, and a joint fuel supply certificate system for automobile production and supply.

The approval of domestic automobile production is mainly based on the appraisal conclusions of China Automobile Company. Our Sonata and Elantra fully meet the requirements of China Automobile, and their inspectors are also amazed by our cars. In addition, Li Gang also led a team to inspect the production conditions of our factory and affirmed the production line and technical conditions of our factory.

Mr. Li also told me that there is no problem with getting the qualifications. Perhaps next year, Hyundai Motor Company will announce it in the national planned automobile manufacturer catalog and product catalog!"

Zhao Hongbo introduced the situation and Lin Johnson said in surprise: "It's great, worth celebrating. With the help of the old director Li at China Automobile, we can solve our big trouble!"

Zhao Hongbo nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I think so too. Thanks to him this time. There is also good news. Although the catalog has not been released yet, we can already sell cars in Beijing and there is no need to rent BAIC's production qualifications!"

Lin Qiangsheng said happily: "I have to call Director Li and thank him very much. Also, don't be careless. If you ask me to give those four cars to China Automobile Company, thank them for their help."

Zhao Hongbo laughed and said, "I think so too, leave them a memory!"

Lin Qiangsheng put down the phone and walked around the office with joy twice. It was beyond his expectations that he suddenly obtained the qualification. Combined with the current situation of China's automobile industry and Zhao Hongbo's introduction just now, he straightened out some of the context.

The production qualification issues of China's automobile industry are sometimes tight and sometimes loose. After the reform and opening up, many places wanted to launch automobile projects in order to develop their economy. However, the central government has its own considerations. The automobile industry is related to the people's livelihood economy and has a great impact. They have to gather the right to production qualifications. In 1981, the automobile supply certificate system was introduced to strictly control automobile prices, licenses, and oil materials to curb the blind development of the automobile industry.

However, China's market economy has just been established, with policies from above and countermeasures from below. The state does not issue licenses, and local governments can issue licenses, but the central government cannot control it only if it is opened within the province.

The state controls gasoline, and local governments have their own refining companies and oil supply channels, which can still supply oil to the market. It is already very convenient for car owners to buy oil.

The country sets the price of cars high and curbs ordinary people from buying cars. It’s okay, but rich people can still afford high-priced cars.

In addition, China's prices are implemented in a dual-track system, with low prices within the planned prices, cheap cars for government and other units, and high prices for unplanned cars. Ineligible car buyers have to spend a lot of money to buy cars, which has led to chaos in the order of automobile transactions and difficult to implement the supply certificate system.

As a car manufacturer, I definitely want to sell more cars and make more money, so the manufacturer has set an eye on the unplanned market. This area is high and makes more money. As long as the car buyer has money, the manufacturer will turn a blind eye. Anyway, the car seller, driver's license, license, and fuel are all the things you buyer, and many of them are not from the province, so the manufacturer does not worry about these things.

Therefore, the automobile industry during this period was actually quite chaotic. The central government tried to manage the production and use of automobiles, but local governments, automobile manufacturers, and consumers were not satisfied, which caused a certain degree of social contradictions.

Here, Lin Johnson called General Manager Li Gang of China Automobile to thank him for his support for Hyundai Motor Company.

Li Gang said on the other end of the phone: "Don't thank me, your cars are of good quality, can stand the inspection, and meet all the requirements we have formulated. In addition, we also went to Zhao Hongbo's automobile company, which fully meets the production conditions stipulated by the state. Since this is the case, there is no reason not to let you produce cars. China's automobile industry welcomes you qualified production companies like you!"

Lin Johnson said: "I still have to thank you. Without your help, we would not have been able to obtain the car production qualification so easily!"

Li Gang smiled and said, "I am very pleased that Binqi has developed because of my development. China's automobile industry has great hope. I hope that excellent companies like you will become stronger and stronger, and will not lose to foreign automobiles. The establishment of China Automobile Company is the purpose of this."

Lin Qiang-Chengsheng said heavily: "Mr. Li, I am confident that China's automobile market is so big, our automobile industry will definitely develop!"

Li Gang said with a smile: "There is another thing. I heard that Soichiro Honda visited Dongxing Group and you have started a lot of cooperation. Is this the case?"

Lin Johnson said: "Yes, we have jointly established the Automotive Technology R&D Center, an engine company, and a racing cooperation project is underway. Honda has also sent us 20 permanent technical management personnel, who are all old backbones of Honda and have helped our company a lot."

Li Gang said: "If you do well, you must fully cooperate with foreign manufacturers, especially excellent manufacturers like Honda, and strive to learn other people's skills!"

Lin Johnson: "I know, thank you Mr. Li for your concern. I will definitely seize this opportunity."

Li Gang talked about another thing: "Kobayashi, have you heard of Chinese auto sport?"

Lin Johnson: "I know there is an institution, which was predecessored by the China Motorcycle Sports Association. It was founded in 1975 and joined the FIA ​​in 1983. In 1985, the association also invited several domestic automobile companies such as Binqi and Harbin Automobile to participate in the automobile rally in Shenzhen."

Li Gang smiled and said, "You Dongxing can set up a racing club. You must support the development of domestic automobile sports. This is a good way to promote automobile culture to the society."

Lin Johnson was happy and said, "Okay, listen to Mr. Li, let's set up a racing club. In fact, I'm going to hide it from you. I'm considering forming the Dongxing Racing Team and planning to participate in the international auto competition!"

"Oh? Your idea is very good. This is also a good way to promote Chinese cars to the world. It costs a lot to organize a team to compete abroad. You must do what you can!" Li Gang said.

Lin Johnson nodded and said yes, then he said, "Old Li, I am now in Q City. I have established a micro-car manufacturing factory here. Do you think I will send the car to Beijing? China Automobile will help you identify it?"

After hearing this, Li Gang laughed: "You little comrade always unexpectedly, and you are paying attention to the microcars again?"

He thought for a while and said, "You can send the car here, but you will definitely not be able to get the qualification this year. It is possible next year that micro cars are not like sedans. If the quality is excellent, we will not restrict local development."

"That's great. I'll send someone to take the car over immediately!" Lin Johnson was overjoyed. The current policy is really good. This is much more relaxed than the automobile industry in his previous life.

He was also puzzled. The policies in the future will become extremely strict, and the production qualifications of automobiles are almost stopped. What is wrong with the problem? (To be continued.)
