Wei Zhibo: Intensification of the Reorganization and Merger of the World Automotive Industry


Wei Zhibo said that FAW-Volkswagen and Shanghai Volkswagen will gradually move closer to the competition. It is reported that the two publics have now begun cooperation and sharing of resources. Later, Wei Zhibo said that he is also very willing to see cooperation on the technical level, such as the meaningful integration of engines, transmissions, etc. “Future automobile industry will go to the high end, and the integration of automobile companies will also be inevitable.” Dr. Wei Zhibo, a director and executive vice president of Volkswagen Group of Germany, and chairman of Volkswagen (China) Investment Co., Ltd., made opening remarks on the future development trend of the automotive industry and other issues. It should be said that such topics are currently being explored by most car manufacturers. What kind of direction the future automobile industry and manufacturers will develop has attracted more and more attention. Recently, Dr. Wei Zhibo, a director of the Volkswagen Group in Germany and the head of the China region, visited Tongji University in Shanghai and was awarded the title of Honorary Professor by Tongji University. Born in Chemnitz, Saxony, Germany in March 1941, Wei Zhibo entered the Volkswagen Company in 1961. In 2001, he became the Vice President of the Volkswagen Group. In 2003, Dr. Bischoff, who was the chairman of Volkswagen Asia Pacific, began his business in China. He is now the vice chairman of North-South Volkswagen and chairman of Volkswagen (China) Investment Co., Ltd. According to Wei Zhibo, the energy development involved in the automotive industry's development trend is mainly based on oil, the gradual application of natural gas, the development of solar energy, and the spread of hydrogen in the final stage of development. It should be said that this allows people to have a clearer understanding of the problem of energy consumption in cars. In addition, Wei Zhibo said that people are talking about the problem of energy-saving cars, mainly around the car's engine. For example, hybrid cars can now be seen in the market. Wei Zhibo said that true energy conservation should not only focus on the production of a vehicle that consumes little or no fuel, but should focus on the entire process from car production to scrapping the car. In order to achieve energy-saving purposes. In addition, there is a clear trend in the automotive industry in the future that automotive electronic products will continue to increase, which is worthy of study in terms of car driving, vehicle safety and comfort. According to statistics, from 1989 to 2000, the average proportion of electronic devices per vehicle in the total automobile manufacturing cost increased from 16% to over 23%. In some limousines, the number of single-chip microcomputers has reached 48, and electronic products have accounted for more than 50% of the total vehicle cost. At present, the application of electronic technology has almost penetrated into all automotive systems. Wei Zhibo said that automotive electronics is a revolution in the development of automotive technology. The degree of automotive electronics is seen as an important indicator of the level of modern automobiles, and is the most important technical measure for developing new models and improving vehicle performance. It is reported that increasing the number of automotive electronic equipment and promoting automotive electronics has become an important means for auto manufacturers to seize the future of the automotive market. As for the development of automotive companies, Wei Zhibo said that the momentum of restructuring and mergers will increase. According to statistics, there were about 100 automakers in the world in the 1970s, but now there are only about 30 automakers. Wei Zhibo said that this trend will continue, leaving only about six in the future. The six companies will be mainly distributed in the United States, France, the United Kingdom, Japan, South Korea and Germany. Prof. Chen Liye of the School of Automotive Engineering at Tongji University reminded the students when they explained after the meeting that Wei Zhibo mentioned that there are no Chinese in the several countries where the future automobile industry dominates. This shows that the current gap between China's auto industry and foreign auto giants, but also shows that China's auto industry still has a long way to go. In the end, Wei Zhibo also talked about the status quo of China's public brands and the future development trend. It is reported that one year ago, when Wei Zhibo took over Dr. Bischoff, chairman of VW Asia Pacific, in charge of the Chinese business, the growth of VW in China has slowed down. Wei Zhibo has said that this is the result of the limited capacity of North and South Volkswagen. Since July 2003, Volkswagen has announced that it will invest 6 billion euros in China in the next five years (at the time the RMB exchange rate would be approximately 60 billion yuan), and the expansion of FAW-Volkswagen No. 2 plant will begin immediately. In May of this year, Volkswagen announced that it has restructured its business structure in China. Volkswagen Group China replaces the former Asia Pacific region as a primary organization that manages Chinese operations. It is directly responsible to the Volkswagen Group's global board of directors and assumes more management responsibilities. , exercise regional headquarters functions. Wei Zhibo said that FAW-Volkswagen and Shanghai Volkswagen will gradually move closer to the competition. It is reported that the two publics have now begun cooperation and sharing of resources. Later, Wei Zhibo said that he is also very willing to see cooperation on the technical level, such as the meaningful integration of engines, transmissions and so on. (Ye Linsheng)
