August in Beijing is the hottest time of the year.

It has accumulated the heat of the dog days that started in mid-July, and this heat seems even more oppressive.

Perhaps only in September will we be able to welcome the cool breeze again and replace it with the heat of being exposed to the sun.

So, it's not just Tokyo that's hot.

At Beijing Railway Station, a minibus departed from the platform passage.

Although it did not take up the boarding and alighting time of ordinary passengers, a group of passengers wearing standard white and black uniforms carrying luggage got off the bus and boarded the bus, which still attracted the attention of passengers on the platform.

The bus body had the painting of the unit it belonged to, so they knew that this group of people came from the Red Star Rolling Mill.

Visitors from the capital are certainly no strangers to the Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant, and even some tourists from other places have heard of the name of the Red Star Steel Rolling Plant.

Needless to say, Comet motorcycles have indeed created a fashion trend all over the country.

Since trial production began in May, Hongxing Factory has contacted distribution channels across the country.

Needless to say, Jingcheng, Gangcheng, Jinmen and Yingcheng have branch factories and secondary branches, which have unique advantages.

The two offices in the first phase, Bianjiang and Yuezhou, have already carried out pre-order warm-up and product distribution promotion.

The five second-phase offices established in May, including Jicheng, Fengcheng, Changshan, Greentown, Chang'an and Quzhou, also carried out publicity as planned.

The third phase of offices in the preparation stage, Bingcheng, Yangcheng, Jincheng, Lincheng, Quancheng and Chuncheng are also making purchase and sales contacts.

Other channels include joint units, supply chain system units, brother units within the industrial system, etc.

In July, the debugging of the assembly line equipment was completed, and the Red Star Factory's Comet motorcycle was officially mass-produced.

With the expectations of distribution systems across the country, this motorcycle, priced under 500 yuan, was officially launched on the market.

The daily production capacity of 260 units simply cannot meet the needs of the supply and marketing market.

The Hongxing Factory had no choice but to take the lead in launching the three-shift industrial model at the motorcycle manufacturing factory in Gangcheng.

In the early stages of production, the production capacity can basically be maintained at around 600 units, which is due to the large amount of motorcycle accessories stored in the early stage.

According to reports from the person in charge of the motorcycle factory, although they are currently stepping up ordering of accessories, due to the production time limit of the supply chain system, it is expected that production capacity will have to be reduced in September this year.

No one can say for sure how long the market's popularity for Comet motorcycles will last.

We started announcing the product last year, started laying the groundwork for sales in March this year, and started preheating in May.

Li Xuewu has done everything he can do for the sales of Comet Motorcycles.

This includes contacting the Beijing supply and marketing system and preparing to establish a direct supply and marketing network affiliated with the sales office.

Nowadays, this kind of motorcycle can be seen very frequently on the streets of Beijing, whether it is purchased with a ticket or with internal qualifications.

Even Li Xuewu, who is in charge of sales coordination, dare not say whether the popularity will subside by September.

If it cannot be reduced, there is nothing we can do. Currently, motorcycle manufacturers are trying their best to increase production capacity.

But there is still no inventory. The motorcycles produced every day will be loaded onto trains or trucks and shipped to all parts of the country after they roll off the assembly line.

The Trade Management Center takes over the processing of some online sales orders. You heard it right, online.

After the internal supply and marketing network of the trade management platform tested the quality of Comet motorcycles, some units organized collective car buying activities.

In other words, a unit within a certain platform has approved the motorcycle, including the employees of that unit.

Either in the name of public-to-public procurement of welfare goods, or in the name of collective purchase and sale, large quantities of such motorcycles are purchased.

Of course, Red Star Factory is willing to do this kind of business, which saves a lot of distribution costs and reduces transportation costs.

However, Li Xuewu was still cautious when approving the online distribution plan contract submitted by the sales office.

He is not opposed to developing online distribution channels, but requires sales offices to ensure that all distribution outlets and offline physical demonstration stores across the country have quotas.

Comet Motorcycles must achieve normal distribution and development through multiple channels without causing channel losses.

If we all rely on trade management platforms to achieve distribution, then what is the point of having offline physical stores?

Of course it’s a guarantee of quality and service!

Hongxing Factory only has a few joint units in Sichuan Province. If the motorcycles are sold to other people, what will happen to the repair and maintenance?

At present, Hongxing Factory’s distribution outlets across the country are not yet capable of achieving full coverage.

Therefore, Comet motorcycles sold very well, and Li Xuewu also demanded that the motorcycles sell better and last longer.

During the investigation at the Jinmen office, he had learned about the market's feedback on this motorcycle from business reports.

At the same time, we also learned about the feedback from motorcycle manufacturers, that is, colleagues in the industry.

In the current motorcycle production field, which generally relies on imported and imitated 250CC displacement motorcycles, Hongxing Factory went in the opposite direction and used the supply chain system to produce 50CC displacement motorcycles.

The price was even lowered to less than 500 yuan. As a result, these manufacturers complained endlessly.

It is also a motorcycle. Of course, the 250CC displacement is more powerful, but compared to the high fuel consumption, complex repair and maintenance costs, the Comet motorcycle is more cost-effective.

Let’s not mention the price of less than 500 yuan for the moment. Let’s just say that the lightweight motorcycle can be carried by an adult.

This is unimaginable for a bulky 250CC motorcycle.

It is common for people to be trapped under motorcycles in car accidents and unable to get out.

Even if there is no accident and the motorcycle falls over, you will not be able to climb out because it is too heavy.

Now that the comet has come out, mobile sectors including electricity, postal services, communications, etc., which do not require much power, have chosen to change their original procurement plans.

Even those who already have motorcycles in their units choose to coordinate the sale and then purchase Comet motorcycles.

It’s a very simple truth. Even women can ride motorcycles, and they are also extremely fuel-efficient. Who wouldn’t love them?

------------------

In just the first month of Comet's mass production, many motorcycle manufacturers approached the Red Star Factory.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The most honest company to participate in the Auto Parts Supply Chain Conference and the most honest party to participate in negotiations after the meeting must be the motorcycle company.

Red Star Factory took out Comet and forced them to no longer think about changes or join the Red Star Factory's supply chain system.

At present, Comet Motorcycles is limited by production capacity and has not yet achieved the influence to dominate the national motorcycle sales market.

But in major cities, even cities without Red Star factory offices have Comet motorcycles on the streets.

And the residents of big cities have the spending power for such cheap scooters.

Therefore, there is no need to wait for Comet motorcycles to be sold all over the country. Those motorcycle manufacturers have already become afraid and surrendered.

Either prepare cash, accept the production model and transformation guidance of the Red Star Factory, purchase and replace it with assembly line equipment, build a parts warehouse, and join the supply chain system.

Either gradually stop producing existing products, use production equipment to accept orders from the supply chain system, and do OEM production.

It can be said that Hongxing Factory's testing of the motorcycle manufacturing field opened up the situation for the automobile manufacturing field.

The sales office of Hongxing Factory organized a visit to the Steel City for participants of the supply chain conference.

Not only did I see the automobile industry production line, but I also saw the motorcycle assembly line that has achieved mass production.

The reason why Comet's production capacity is limited to more than 600 units is because other models of motorcycles are still being produced on the assembly line.

Including 100CC, 250CC, 500CC.

Therefore, the Hongxing Factory, which can quickly produce multiple models of motorcycles in one line, is unrivaled.

Not only motorcycle companies are afraid, but also automobile industry companies are afraid.

This trick has been very effective in frightening the monkeys. For more than a month, the Trade Management Center has been conducting negotiations and signing ceremonies every day.

All the preparations for the signing ceremony were even kept in a conference room, which really became an assembly line.

Fulfilling the contract requires professional guidance and inspection teams. For this reason, Hongxing Factory specially dispatched professionals to conduct systematic training.

Including engineers, technicians, accountants, managers, etc.

During the implementation process, the retrofitted industrial plant will need to bear the team’s travel expenses.

Li Xuewu is a conscientious head of the brother units. He does not require these units to bear the wages of team members.

After all, we are brothers and we have to get along well in the future. How can we learn how future generations of brats will deal with us?

However, the formation of this kind of professional team has greatly promoted the ongoing personnel reform work of Red Star Factory.

------------------

Why? What is the relationship between the two?

A guidance team requires at least forty or fifty people, and a project takes at least half a year from start to finish.

A behemoth like the No. 17 Factory would never have been completed without 3,578 years.

Therefore, in this automotive industrialization revolution, the Red Star Factory can output at least 2,000 technical personnel.

What does 2,000 people mean?

Hongxing Factory currently has 90,000 employees, including 16 companies that are being merged and Fengcheng No. 1 Machinery Factory that has completed the merger and is currently being digested.

Are 2,000 people with multiple technical skills selected from 90,000 people to participate in this project?

Wrong!
