First, the ability of component companies determines the core competitiveness of China's auto industry

The development of the auto parts industry is an important related industry for automobile manufacturing. Looking at the top 100 auto parts companies in the world in 2017, Japan is a strong automobile manufacturing country. In 2017, among the top 100 global auto parts companies, the number of Japanese companies and Operating income ranks first in the world, followed by the United States. With the strong development of China's automobile manufacturing industry, only four companies in China ranked among the top 100 in the world in 2017.

Since 2011, the annual import volume of parts and accessories for motor vehicles in China has exceeded 20 billion US dollars. Among them, Germany, Japan, South Korea and the United States are the main importing countries, accounting for nearly 80%. The domestic market is monopolized by foreign capital. In addition to a large number of auto parts imported from abroad, the domestic market is basically monopolized by foreign capital. According to statistics, 70% of the world's top 100 auto parts companies have established factories in China, and more than 1,200 foreign-invested companies invest in China.

China has become the world's largest automobile production and sales country, but the long-term autonomy of core auto parts supply is poor, and dependence on foreign parts companies is very strong. The supply of core parts and components is always a hidden pain in China's auto industry. Earlier this year, there was a case in which a German parts company almost lost more than 3 million vehicles in the domestic auto industry due to the out of stock. This fully exposes the fragile side of China's auto industry.

In fact, this is not the first time that domestic automakers have been affected by the shortage of core components. The transmission of the Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi GS8 uses the Japanese Aisin six-speed gearbox. Due to insufficient supply capacity, the output of the Chuanqi GS8 has to be reduced to about 7,000 vehicles/month. The relevant person in charge of GAC Chuanyu said on many occasions that if it is not affected by the transmission supply, the sales volume of the GS8 market can be easily maintained at more than 10,000 vehicles.

Second, the urgent need to build parts system

At present, with the rapid development of China's automobile industry, the auto parts industry has developed rapidly, and the growth rate is higher than the whole vehicle industry. China's auto parts have certain competitive advantages in product quality and brand, and some Chinese auto parts. Enterprises are widely recognized in the international market.

The data shows that in 2016, the main business income of China's auto parts and above enterprises reached 3.7 trillion, an increase of 14.2% year-on-year, total profit was 285.8 billion yuan, an increase of 17%, and fixed assets investment was 868.5 billion yuan. It increased by 5.88% year-on-year. According to the ranking of the world's top 100 enterprise parts companies released by the American "Automotive Magazine" in 2017, only five companies in China were selected.

However, the key areas of domestic auto parts are still mainly foreign-funded parts, and more Chinese-brand auto parts companies are occupying the market in areas with low-tech interiors.

In this regard, Shi Jianhua, deputy secretary-general of the China Automobile Association, suggested that in the future, we should build a safe and controllable automobile parts base, improve the construction of spare parts supporting systems, vigorously develop advanced automotive materials and manufacturing equipment, and promote efficient and coordinated development of the automobile industry chain. Actively play the leading and driving benefits of the whole vehicle, deepen the cooperation between zero and zero, promote synergy and cooperation, maximize the benefits, build a new cooperative relationship of vehicle parts and components; follow the new direction of transformation and upgrading, accelerate the integration of new technologies; Technical breakthroughs, the establishment of a sound component technology innovation system.

China's auto industry needs the rise of core parts and components companies, and we are more looking forward to the day when the core parts are made in China.
