Recently, Guangzhou "Daikaxu" Aluminum Alloy Wheel Co., Ltd., jointly invested by Guangzhou Dongling Group, Daica Wheel Manufacturing Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of China International Trust & Investment Corporation, and Japan Asahi Corporation, was formally established. Wheel R&D design units and manufacturers also settled in Guangzhou with the success of Honda Motor in Guangzhou. So far, there are more than 50 Honda core parts supporting companies that have had decades of cooperation with Honda Automobile globally, and most of them currently settled in Guangzhou or have already settled in Guangzhou. Guangzhou's ideas of attracting and stimulating the development of the parts and components industry through the vehicle industry and boosting the growth of the entire vehicle industry through the development of the parts and components industry are step by step to success.
Parts are the "big head" of the automotive industry
In recent years, the automotive industry in Guangzhou has grown by leaps and bounds, Honda, Nissan's success in Guangzhou and Toyota Motor have settled in Guangzhou. Guangzhou has successfully assembled the three largest Japanese automakers and the development prospects are limitless. However, the city of Guangzhou has clearly realized that the automobile industry is a long industrial chain and parts and components are the basis of the automobile industry. The upgrading of vehicle technology and the reduction of costs all depend on the improvement of the level of parts and components industries. The competition is to a large extent the competition between the scale and level of its component products. If there is no strong component industry as the backing, the entire vehicle industry is at best only an “assembly industryâ€; China’s own intellectual property rights will sooner or later If the "whole vehicle development" road fails to gradually achieve breakthroughs in the design and development of key parts and technology, the so-called "development of the vehicle" is nothing more than empty talk.
Lin Shusen, member of the Standing Committee of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Guangzhou Municipal Party Committee, once said such an example: Guangzhou used to produce “Wuyang†bicycles in the past was a major event. There was a factory, but also the second factory and the third factory. There are pedal factories and chain factories... But later, the production of bicycles is just a roadside bicycle repair shop because there are small factories around Guangzhou that produce bicycle parts. Just buy bicycle parts and assemble them. On the line; later motorcycle production, many people think this is a very complicated thing, and the result is that now, there are currently more than 20 motorcycle manufacturers in the country designated by Guangzhou, and the vast majority of private enterprises, the basic reason In Guangzhou and its surrounding areas, the production of motorcycle parts and components is already quite advanced. For any industrial industry, the assembly industry is not the entire industry. Now the whole vehicle industry is exciting, but in essence, the current automobile industry and the original bicycle and motorcycle industry have a lot in common, as long as the auto parts industry has developed to a considerable height, the entire automobile production and adjustment The car design will be much easier.
Investment along the industry chain
At present, Guangzhou’s automobile accessory industry is not yet strong. There are more than 50 professional supporting companies. There are more than 200 companies that have auto supporting capabilities. In 2003, the output value of auto parts was about 11 billion yuan, which is in line with the output value of the entire automobile industry of 35 billion yuan. It is still far from enough, and the ratio of the internationally accepted standard autos to the output value of parts and components is basically stable at around 1:1.7. Guangzhou proposed that in the next 10 years, the output value of auto parts will reach 100 billion yuan, which will increase the ratio of production of auto parts and components to 1:0.67.
The effective method for the rapid increase of the auto parts industry is to rely on the current vehicle production capacity and drive their core parts suppliers to set up factories in Guangzhou as soon as possible. In this regard, Guangzhou City proposed to follow the industrial chain and organize investment teams to visit Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, and Hong Kong and Taiwan regions to attract investment. The purpose is to allow these core suppliers with patents and technologies to settle in Guangzhou as soon as possible. In Japan, Guangzhou has invited more than 70 parts and components manufacturers to set up factories in Guangzhou.
In 2003, a major breakthrough was made in the investment in Guangzhou auto and parts industry. The contracted foreign investment amounted to USD 313 million, a year-on-year increase of 1.65 times, which was the highest among all industries. A large number of international auto parts companies, such as Aipake, Aiji and Stanley, have come one after another and gradually formed industrial clusters for automobile parts such as Huangpu, Huadu, Zengcheng, Baiyun and Nansha. In addition to the core supporting companies of Honda, the production base of Dongfeng Daily has settled in Huadu. In 2003, there were more than 110 auto parts companies visited Huadu, 32 were settled in Huadu, and 7 companies are currently under construction.
"Dikaxin" sprints the first wheel hub
The establishment of the "Daikaxu" aluminum alloy wheel hub co-invested by Honda's core supplier Japan Asahi Co., Ltd., China International Trust & Investment Corporation, and the Guangzhou privately-owned Dongling Group undoubtedly closely coincided with the development of the auto parts industry in Guangzhou. . The first phase of the project will invest 170 million yuan, and the scale of production will be 1 million wheels. Once the entire project investment is completed, it will have a production capacity of 5 million wheels, and will provide hub support for 1 million vehicles. By then, it will be the largest in China. One of the wheel hub R&D, production and sales bases.
Nippon Asahi Co., Ltd. occupies more than 35% of the market share of the domestic wheel hub market in Japan, but its business is more than just a wheel hub. The person in charge of the company said that "Asahi" is also engaged in various environmental protection and electromechanical equipment manufacturing. Production of parts and components such as aircrafts, automobiles, and automobiles has a number of advanced production equipment such as low-pressure casting and ultra-high-precision machining centers. They also hope to cooperate with Chinese companies in an appropriate manner.
