China's scooter production is mainly concentrated in the development of molds in Jiangsu and Zhejiang plate, due to the entire plate by a large number of small and scattered enterprises piled up, its workshop-style production so that it has not been able to give birth to the production of scooters of heavyweight enterprises, more than 10 years China scooter in the international community did not get the same competitiveness as the rider's car. (Thousands of gold can't buy you back. I don't need to hesitate)
Chongqing, the “Motorcycle Capital” of China. But in the scooter this piece is still “lame”, the crux of the problem in the scooter accessories. As we all know, the development of any new product is inseparable from the support of its accessories resources, due to the lack of scooter accessories resources in Chongqing, especially scooter coverings, lamps, frames, and other key parts and components resources basically need to be procured from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which makes the Chongqing plate scooter manufacturing costs than Jiangsu and Zhejiang is much higher than the price of the loss of competitiveness. Many Chongqing OEMs have to move their scooter production to the coast, or find enterprises in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to do OEM production, which inevitably results in a loss of control over the quality of the car, the system and after-sales service.
But to open the mold in Chongqing local production of parts, and face the high cost, no local support for large enterprises, spare parts companies lack of confidence in the problem. We are thinking, scooter will once again lose touch with Chongqing motorcycle gang, scooter is destined to become the pain of the motorcycle capital. (Analyze the real purpose of mainstream capital, to find the best profit opportunities.)
Is the enterprise worried about the time, Chongqing Municipal Government to the motor enterprises a strong support, the municipal government in early 2004 to demonstrate the construction of “motorcycle capital” feasibility of the scooter and large-displacement comparable to the special issue of all the large-displacement and scooter vehicles and parts are enjoying the tax incentives for new products; and in In June 2004, led by the Municipal Economic Commission, the organization of development zones and enterprises to go to Guangdong and Zhejiang, where there are many manufacturers of scooter parts and components to attract investment, and encourage everyone to invest in Chongqing's development zones to set up factories, the Chongqing Municipal Government has promised to give the corresponding preferential policies.
On the other side of the enterprise also follow the trend: Zongshen Group has been with the Italian Piaggio technical cooperation, and Piaggio in the world has advanced scooter production technology; Loncin Group's Jinlong also with Taiwan's Guangyang extensive technical cooperation. As the Chongqing motorcycle gang of three Lifan Group is holding back, to roar a big job, should belong to their own but lost many years of the scooter market back.
Lifan Group invested 30 million yuan to build the Lifan scooter production base in Chongqing, a phase of the project was officially completed, which is the largest local scooter production base in Chongqing, with an annual production capacity of 300,000 units, and its completion declared the Chongqing motorcycle rely on the “one leg” to walk the history of the end of the sign of the Lifan Group's development leapt to a new level. Lifan Group development jumped to a new level. At the beginning of the establishment of the new plant, Lifan actively explored and decisively launched a new model based on four relatively mature models, namely Dr. A, Princess, Lingying and Haomai, and combined with the concept of high-level quality. In just three months from March to June 2004, Lifan Scooter Factory has produced more than 12,000 scooters.
