This isn't Wang Jianping's fault; he couldn't foresee how enormous the dostic automotive market demand would be in the coming years.
In fact, in the next few years, dostic car market sales will enter a period of high growth, and even for the next decade or so, it will remain a high-growth period for car sales, with car ownership in the country skyrocketing.
It's safe to say that dostically, the car sales volu will be almost as high as production. If 5 million vehicles are produced, at least 4.9 million can be sold without any worries.
Compared to dostic car companies, joint venture brands still hold a significant advantage, whether in terms of production capacity or sales volu, they are far ahead.
In 2010, passenger car sales in the dostic market of China will reach 13.76 million units, with Toyota alone selling 846,000 units.
Huasheng Automobile sold at most 200,000 cars in 2010, which accounts for just over one percent of the dostic car sales volu, making it quite insignificant.
However, selling 600,000 cars next year should not be a problem as long as production capacity keeps up.
But for next year's output, even if our own production lines are saturated, it would cap at 500,000 units, so we must expand our production lines.
The fastest way, of course, is to directly acquire a car manufacturing plant that is on the verge of bankruptcy, preferably located in the north, so it can cover the northern market and save on many logistics steps and costs.
Although Wang Jianping thought the chairman made so sense, he still thought for a mont before saying, "BYD has been in the automobile industry for many years now. Whether in production, design, or marketing, they are ahead of us, with more experience. To catch up with them and surpass them in a short period is a considerable challenge."
"Our developnt also requires ti. Even if we have ample funds, we still need ti to cultivate talent."
"You're right, it's definitely not easy to catch up with BYD in a short ti, but we have our advantages. We have ample funds. Without talent, we can hire them at high salaries. Without experience, we can learn from our peers!" Yi Anguo said nonchalantly.
"In short, as long as money can solve the problem, it's not really a problem. If money can't solve it, it ans we haven't offered enough money."
"Whether it is technology or talent, everything has its value, and most things can be solved with money. I trust you to lead Huasheng Automobile to a brighter tomorrow."
"The support I can give you is financial support. Make sure to build our Huasheng Automobile into a world-renowned car brand, eventually moving beyond national borders, through Asia, and reaching the world."
With Yi Anguo's resolute words, Wang Jianping felt his blood boil and his heart surge, with a sense of loyalty and eagerness for action.
Yi Anguo's words equated to giving Wang Jianping complete trust and substantial support, essentially allowing him to go all out.
As the head of a company, if you ask for funds and receive them, there's nothing that can't be solved.
Without managent talent? Hire them, search through headhunters, and poach from others with high salaries. If the spade is wielded well, no corner remains unturned.
Without technical talent? Hire with high salaries. Technical talents need to eat too. As water runs low, people rise high. If you earn 10 thousand yuan a month at one company, wouldn't you be tempted if another company offers fifteen thousand?
Loyalty to a company only exists when the benefits aren't substantial. When benefits are significant enough, even family can be betrayed, much less a boss.
If you aren't tempted at fifteen thousand a month, then how about being offered twenty thousand? Wouldn't that sway you?
Wang Jianping had been in the automobile manufacturing industry for many years, knowing many managent and technical talents. As long as he was willing to spend money, poaching a few talents from major car companies wasn't difficult.
In just over a year since its establishnt, Huasheng Automobile had achieved mass production, reaching 200,000 sales in its inaugural year, leaving the dostic automobile industry astounded.
BYD's CEO, Huang Shengfu, couldn't help but exclaim during a high-level eting that Huasheng Automobile might very well beco BYD's largest competitor in the future, an eventuality they could not ignore!
From the mont Anguo Group acquired Jianghe Automobile Manufacturing Plant in Xijiang Province, officially entering the automotive industry, Huang Chuanyu had a premonition that future Anguo Auto would undoubtedly be a formidable opponent against BYD Auto.
However, within just half a year, Anguo Auto had changed its na to Huasheng Auto, separating from Anguo Group to form the independent Huasheng Group.
Following the reorganization, Huasheng Auto's developnt speed outpaced its prior pace, with newly launched cars selling out in the automotive market, many people even preordering.
Back then, Huang Chuanyu had foreseen that the rise of Huasheng Auto was an unstoppable event.
Although Huasheng Auto hasn't had much impact on BYD Auto's sales yet,
that's due to the current enormous demand in the dostic automotive market.
However, the dostic market will eventually reach saturation, and that's when the truly brutal market competition will begin.
Hence, BYD Auto and Huasheng Auto will inevitably et on the market battlefield and engage in fierce competition, an outco that's unavoidable.
Huang Shengfu understands this well, so he wants the company's executives to be aware and prepare for battle in advance, rather than cramming at the last mont when the real day arrives.
Yi Anguo, of course, also understands this. He is well aware of BYD's strengths and knows that Huang Shengfu is a formidable opponent, hence he must prepare early. As Huasheng Auto continues to develop, it will ultimately face off against BYD Auto.
To cope with intense future market competition, preparations must begin now, quickly catching up with and even surpassing BYD's pace to remain invincible.
This is why Yi Anguo proactively offered strong financial support to Wang Jianping, allowing him to fully develop Huasheng Auto swiftly, expand production capacity, and seize the market.
Yi Anguo understands deeply; competition with BYD isn't rely about the dostic market but will also include the Southeast Asian market and the global market in the future.
It's not just about the current fuel car market competition but also about future new-energy car market battles.
Even the competition extends to new-energy battery research and developnt.
After inspecting Huasheng Group, Yi Anguo headed north to Beijing.
Beijing, being the capital, doesn't need its economic prosperity highlighted, and it is also China's cultural center, hosting headquarters of many cultural dia and film companies.
Many palace dramas are fild in Beijing, along with nurous costu dramas because the city has unique advantages.
Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Zhao Liying were all filming in Beijing during this period.
Although Zhao Liying is the owner of Liying Film Company and Liying Entertainnt Company, she loves acting and personally starred in a costu drama this ti as the leading actress.
In brief, three costu dramas heavily invested in by Anjing Video began filming simultaneously in Beijing, with Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, and Zhao Liying respectively taking the lead roles in the three dramas.
Yi Anguo's trip to Beijing this ti was not only to assess the developnt of the city's cultural dia industry but also to visit them.
Yi Anguo was very low-key during this trip to Beijing. He took the train to the city with only four people: two assistants, Yang Hai, and another security staff mber.
For safety reasons, Yi Anguo rarely travels alone anymore, mainly because the won in his family worry. Anguo's safety concerns a lot of people now.
If anything were to happen to Yi Anguo, the seven major groups would likely collapse, with no one capable of taking over leadership and stabilizing continual developnt.
Hu Jing might manage to keep Anjing Group stable with Yi Haiyang's support, nothing more.
Zhou ngdie could hardly preserve Anguo Group, not due to lack of ability, but because she doesn't have a suitable identity to lead its future developnt.
As for Chen Xuejiao, she might not manage to hold onto Hualong Investnt Group, considering her child is yet to be born, thus lacking the advantage of securing her position.
As for the other won and groups, everything is uncertain, though Chen Ting may get involved on behalf of her son, Chen Feilong, to secure part of the family business.
Guo Aihua and Guo Sian will probably get involved too since Guo Sian is Yi Anguo's son, and being the eldest, they naturally have claims to Anguo's estate.
Proving this isn't difficult with current scientific capabilities, easily achievable.
The one possibly at most disadvantage might be his eldest daughter, Yi Xinyi, though Hu Jing should help her secure so assets, ensuring a worry-free life.
As for Zhao Liying, owning Liying Films and Liying Entertainnt won't leave her disadvantaged.
Liu Yifei and Yang Mi might end up being the most disadvantaged, potentially gaining nothing.
So for everyone to feel at ease, Yi Anguo always travels with at least two security personnel and two private managers, his basic travel arrangent.
Though Beijing also hosts subsidiaries and branches of the seven major groups, Yi Anguo's visit was personal, visiting Beijing quietly without alarming anyone, rely checking into the newly opened Beijing Anguo Hotel as the first guest in the presidential suite.
However, Yi Anguo has instructed his assistant to make sure that the senior managent of Beijing Anguo Hotel maintains confidentiality, not disclosing his travel plans or his stay at the hotel.
If word got out, it would inevitably attract people visiting him, hoping for investnt to boost local economic developnt, donations for education, road construction, etc., knowing how wealthy Yi Anguo is.
Many would argue, "With all that wealth, it wouldn't be excessive to donate so for constructing a university library or establishing a scholarship, or investing in research and developnt," obviously considering it a reasonable expectation.
