August can be called the "antitrust month" of the Chinese auto industry. Audi, Chrysler, Toyota, Denso and other well-known auto parts and components companies have been found to have various monopolistic behaviors last month and received due punishment. However, among these punished companies, there is very little relationship with the commercial vehicle industry. Is there no monopolistic behavior in the commercial vehicle industry or is it a blind spot for the anti-monopoly of the commercial vehicle industry? According to Yang Zaifu, Secretary-General of CUC Commercial Vehicles Division, there is a high possibility that the parts and components companies supplying commercial vehicle companies have monopolistic behavior, but foreign-funded vehicle companies do not constitute a monopoly because they have less sales in China, but they must prevent It forms a monopoly in some high-end market segments.
Monopoly is also called monopoly. An official from the National Development and Reform Commission who participated in this round of anti-monopoly investigations said in an interview with the media that there are no monopolistic behaviors in the auto industry to examine from the following aspects: First, there is no use of market dominance in sales to tie up users. Or is it not willing to buy the product; Second, whether the zero-to-total ratio is within 3 times; Third, whether there is a big gap between the price of foreign-invested automotive products in the Chinese market and the price of the country where the company is located. Of course, deduct the tariff, logistics and other factors to consider Fourth, there is no existing price negotiation in the same industry. The premise of the two aspects after the inspection is that the subjects to be investigated must have a certain degree of market dominance, whether it is a single enterprise or a corporate alliance.
Yang Zaiyu said that now, it can be argued that the existence of monopolistic behavior for foreign parts and components companies supplying commercial vehicle companies is reflected in two aspects. First of all, Bosch and other parts and components companies have too high supply prices to China, especially some key components, such as electronic control components, and there has been a problem of high prices. After the implementation of State III, parts of the high pressure common rail system of commercial vehicle companies in China have long depended on the supply of components giants such as Bosch. After upgrading the National IV, there are similar problems in the electronic control components of the post-processing system. This makes foreign-owned parts giants occupy a dominant position in the market.
An expert in the commercial vehicle industry, who asked not to be named, said: “Before the implementation of the National IV, there was a word circulating in the industry that the country’s four could not be upgraded smoothly. It depends on how much Bosch can supply. Now this situation has improved. Many domestic parts and components companies can also manufacture key electronic control components, but Bosch and other foreign-owned parts giants still dominate the market."
This resulted in the possibility of monopolistic consequences. Inflated prices of foreign parts and components caused an overall low ratio of zero. The frequency of replacing parts for commercial vehicles was much higher than that of passenger cars. The price of key parts was high and brought the majority of commercial vehicle users. heavy burden. In addition, foreign-funded parts and components companies may abuse their dominant position in the market and maintain the price of their products over their actual value for a long period of time. If a single company fails to achieve this goal, several parts and components companies may negotiate prices and monopolize the market through price alliances. Exclude competition.
Foreign-owned vehicle companies have no monopolistic behavior
As for the existence of monopolistic behavior for foreign-invested vehicle companies, Yang Zaiwei believes that there should be no current situation. “Foreign commercial vehicle companies have a relatively small number of sales in China. Among truck companies, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Scania, Mann, and other companies have sold 5,6,000 vehicles in China, with 1,2,000 less vehicles. In China, there are also few sales of companies such as Shenwo, so the foreign-invested commercial vehicle companies still do not have the market monopoly strength, Yang said.
Prevent foreign-owned enterprises from forming monopolies in individual market segments Yang Zaiyu said that although commercial vehicle manufacturers of foreign brands currently have no monopolistic behavior, they should prevent these companies from forming monopolies in individual market segments in the future. Some surveys have found that in recent years, the main driving force for the growth of imported trucks has been the surge in imports of chassis for special vehicles. Sany Heavy Industry, Valin Xingma, Zoomlion and many other companies import truck chassis to produce more cement trucks, fire trucks and other special vehicles. The reason why a considerable part of the domestic cement pump trucks and fire trucks use imported truck chassis is because the chassis of the imported trucks has a good static performance and high power system reliability. Taking a concrete pump truck as an example, it is not the driving and carrying reliability that is considered in the chassis of an imported truck, but the working efficiency in a static state. As we all know, cement has the property of easy condensation. If the cement pump truck stops working for various reasons during the construction process, the cement will condense into pieces before it is poured into a predetermined workpiece. The consequence is disastrous and most likely to cause such consequences. The power source of the cement pump truck is static - the engine has failed. Therefore, the special vehicle manufacturers use imported truck chassis to manufacture cement trucks and other special vehicles. The most important reason is the lack of confidence in the reliability of domestically produced engines.
Therefore, China's commercial vehicle companies must rely on anti-monopoly laws and regulations to boycott foreign capital monopolies, and secondly, they must increase their technological strength so that foreign-funded enterprises can no longer dominate the market. The gap between Chinese trucks and Japanese and European trucks is mainly due to the gap in electronic systems. Of course, this electronic system refers to a wide range of applications, including the development of electronic chips and software, the electronic level of production equipment, the electronic level of manufacturing processes and processes, and the electronic level of products. As long as China’s commercial vehicle companies have improved their technological capabilities in this area, they have also eliminated the preconditions for foreign companies to implement monopolies. One needs to rely on anti-monopoly laws and regulations, and the other is to increase the technical strength so that foreign-funded enterprises cannot occupy the dominant position in the market.
