Automobile on all corners of the country.

After several years of SAIC and Nanjing Auto Point prospect of a battle finally proved the strength to master the right to speak is the ultimate factor, we now see is that SAIC are step by step open big net, wishing to SAIC is not conducive to the development of all the things the network which slowly digested, resisting foreign aggression must first security, the SAIC in the autonomous vehicle on the road go more and more injections.

For Nanjing Auto, SAIC is a more helpless feeling in the SAIC-Nanjing Auto bought MG Rover SAIC knife stabbed a critical moment and took away the MG’s tangible assets, these idle for several years in terms of the production line for the United Kingdom only the value of a scrap metal prices for the Chinese auto companies there is great value in use. Rover can not pursue development in the UK because of Britain’s various costs are really high, vehicle costs can not compete with its European rivals, but in China, the cost is simply not a problem.

This case, the Shanghai-Nanjing co-operation is undoubtedly a favorable consideration. But the good thing they would not have smooth sailing, who will become the Shanghai-Nanjing cooperative way?

NAC has long been the name of co-operation with SAIC abacus

MG Rover after the acquisition by Chinese enterprises above the solid strength of steam quickly come up with improvements Rover models, and received a huge market success, but now faces the question SAIC capacity issues, if SAIC could take to the south steam on the factory floor who does not start-up capital can not operate the production line, SAIC will be able to very low cost Zaochu quality and technical content is pretty good models, in order to combat a joint venture vehicle, reversing the Chinese auto market abnormal situation.

The SAIC and NAC can be said that each took part of the MG Rover assets, can be pieced together to form the largest production capacity, so the struggle between the two state-owned enterprises and therefore started their own status of NAC is very bad, lack of funds, there is no strong technical R & D team, lack of market credibility, internal strife and endless. NAC products, sales remained at more than 1000 vehicles per month this figure, this large enterprises with NAC is a far cry from the image. Therefore, NAC at all since buying the remaining assets of MG Rover began, has been playing in co-operation with SAIC and eat it.

SAIC-NAC dispute the right to speak

Nanjing Auto and SAIC have been destined to the basis for development co-operation can be achieved, but only the need for coordination between the two businesses is the discourse between the right to be worried that by how much. South of the steam the past two decades the management of performance, SAIC is clearly not assured equal partnership with the Nanjing Auto, Fiat is that the failure of several high-level NAC acting in bad faith, engage in the market has become engaged in politics, got to the final We did not eat. Therefore, for the co-operative attitude SAIC is to receive all the assets of Nanjing Auto, Nanjing Auto will be included in SAIC’s production and sales systems, NAC has the power to make money, but did not participate in decision-making powers.

In the country and the people, we should support the practice of SAIC, mountain can not be two tigers, and this cooperation would obviously SAIC’s performance better, more powerful, more autonomous vehicle will be bigger and stronger. In the ongoing process of cooperation, the Fiat has begun to join hands with the SAIC, Nanjing Auto also began Hao-liang, chairman of SAIC’s intention to gradually move closer to a broken Rover remaining assets to obtain opportunities for cooperation with the SAIC, Hao good practice is already worthy of recognition of the.

However, such cooperation will obviously affect some people’s vested interests, such as NAC MG project and its commander in chief Zhang Xin.

Cooperation of great benefit to the Shanghai-Nanjing

On the south cooperation, SAIC benefits can reduce an opponent to add a partner to expand a production capacity. Is also beneficial to the NAC, you can make an inventory of businesses, to save the livelihoods of tens of thousands of employees, you can learn the advanced management experience, organize internal problems, but a very small price to pay. For Fiat, the Fiat on a South cooperation in the Chinese market is a great opportunity, Fiat is an unconditional supporter of the South co-operation.

However, the MG-South cooperation project for the present not much good, MG’s thunder will be in cooperation SAIC Roewe series of pressure before, the end can only become the SAIC-MG brand into the European market as a channel for the brand last The outcome is likely, as Rover did annihilation in the history of eolian years. Southern Steam in the MG before doing the work in fact has become useless, which is unacceptable to some people, so the gas in the South, MG commander Zhang Xin is the main force against the co-operation.

In fact, SAIC is a highly inclusive enterprise, a culture of good management of informal enterprises and enterprises in SAIC, as long as you do regarding people come to the capital appreciation, you can get the appropriate location, as the fancy but is the SAIC has been the practice. I know a friend of Shanghai GM, in the beginning of the project when the Roewe to SAIC, salary levels much lower than in the general-purpose, but without hesitation, “I think is to do business, do a bit of the national car industry,” he say so.
I therefore think that SAIC is China’s hope of autonomous vehicle, the Shanghai-Nanjing cooperation boost.

MG position of those with vested interests

MG Zhang Xin is now the commander of MG, but also those with vested interests on behalf of MG, who co-operation in the Shanghai-Nanjing’s position, worthy of attention. Component is greater than the person’s job performance boast. Interviews with people who’ve been all remember his “high spirits” in the face with the two mantra: “We are what is the use of that old man” “I come out is to just play.” This argument is consistent with Zhang Xin’s inner activities, on the one hand NAC decay, Zhang Xin, engage in self-inductance MG has no future, so one side of the Hao-Liang denounced the “old man” what is the use, on the one hand they do so openly, “I is out of play. ” The monthly sales have reached more than 3000 Taiwan Rong-Wei Zhang commander mouth series became such a car: “Roewe this car got me the best tractors in rural areas to do,” interested in understanding what a friend can search for Zhang Xin in the Sohu live record.

SAIC in the acquired immediately after the failure of the Rover brand Roewe 750 series of launch vehicles, and gradually the operation of the rapid market has Roewe 750′s market reputation and sales are very satisfactory. Nanjing Auto in receiving the remaining assets of MG Rover has spent more than six months after the assembly debugging, since the Shanghai Auto show several samples after the vehicle has not made any major moves, 4S stores no building, now is just a vehicle for the fans kinds of dreams. That NAC is just an excuse for lack of funds, bad ship there samgun nails, did Qiruijili no production line is how developed it? Now, more than 10 production lines are there, NAC car nowhere in sight.

Zhang MG project is responsible for directing the negative side of their work found, an excuse an excuse for contempt for the South side of steam of the family. And if it is for the sake of China’s autonomous vehicle, Zhang command should be fighting in the production of the first line, rather than rumor around indiscriminately slander.

Such a person, it would be difficult into SAIC’s eye, so the face of the rapidly-South cooperation on the progress, Zhang Xin anxious.

Cooperation in the Shanghai-Nanjing variables

In the SAIC and Nanjing Auto’s cooperation, will be a matter of course there were many variables, but this variable is directing Zhang unexpected, but within reason. In fact, according to Zhang Xin’s understanding, SAIC spend a little money, give the command a little Zhang Lei, MG resistance to the project may be digested in the South on the steam inside, but SAIC would never do such budget, 20 years, China rapid development of automobile industry, SAIC has done a few back to money-losing proposition?

NAC MG can be expected that the project and its commander in chief Zhang Xin, Nanjing cooperation process will be the toughest one stumbling block, in co-operation has not been reached, SAIC will not intervene in the internal affairs of the NAC, while Wang Hao-liang, chairman of another the lack of an effective way to contain Zhang Xin, it also makes us understand that this NAC is how to engage in exactly two decades of internal struggle. Will be from outside the so-Jun, Zhang command and bright, Wang directors night headache.

Wang Hao-liang, chairman of Nanjing Auto bought MG, there has been cooperation between SAIC and the best time. Steam over 20 years of experience in cooperation, SAIC-Wuling integration success stories, NAC is bound to get better development.

So: If you want the Chinese autonomous vehicle access to substantial progress, we must first establish an effective mechanism to eliminate this kind of “talent” got the upper hand.
