Yuchai achieved record sales and sales for two consecutive months


In March, Yuchai's production and sales once again created new records. During the two sessions of the National People's Congress this year, NPC deputy Yu Ping, chairman of the Yuchai Group Board of Directors, told reporters in an interview that Yuchai's production in February and March was very busy. Many owners of the plant called him to “grab” the engine.

Under the severe circumstances of the global financial crisis and the continual spread of market crisis, Yuchai went against the tide, and its products were in short supply. Orders continued to rise. In February, it produced more than 50,000 units, and in March it produced more than 70,000 units. In the first quarter of 2009, both engine production and sales More than 130,000 units, once again, staged a "Yuchai phenomenon" that has gone against the market.

What is the secret of Yuchai's rapid and healthy development? In order to solve the mystery of happiness, I recently entered the Yuchai production plant to find out.

When I arrived at the vehicle assembly section of the engine plant of Yuchai Corporation, I heard encouraging news: Since February, without increasing equipment and personnel, they have continuously innovated in management thinking and worked hard. Skillful work, starting from 450 stations, gradually progressed, and in more than one month, even the eight customs exchanges, the production capacity increased by more than 50%. Here, the author is amazed at the miracles created by the workers' masters and believes that Yuchai’s “warm spring” is not groundless.

By actively responding to the international financial crisis, Yuchai established a strategic management system for the Group, continued to deepen the internal industrial restructuring of the Group, expanded external financing channels, actively seized market opportunities, accelerated the technological transformation of enterprises, innovated incentive mechanisms, researched and developed leading products, and nurtured innovations. Culture, introducing and cultivating innovative talents, improving the ability of independent innovation, and improving market competitiveness. Not only has the “crisis” turned into a reality, it has also achieved good results.

Close to the rural extension overseas

In the grand opening of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, as the heart of the car, more than 2,000 units of the Yuchai Guotai Engine beat the imported brands, carrying a sense of national pride and escorting the special Olympic vehicles.

However, Yuchai did not meet this brief aura. The strong sense of crisis led Yuchai to put forward the eight-character operating principle of 2009—“internal training, building and development”, that is, to practice internal strength to enhance strength, build market to cultivate growth points, and collect power to get ready. Since September of last year, in the face of the global financial crisis, Yuchai has adjusted its product structure through internal training to improve product quality. Product development has shifted toward low-price, light-weight, and fuel-efficient models, while vigorously developing agricultural machinery products. The large-scale cost reduction project has built up the advantages of products and markets for the development of Yuchai. Judging from the orders in the first quarter of 2009, the full preparation of the four months has enabled Yuchai to seize a rare opportunity for development and successfully turn “crisis” into an “opportunity”.

According to changes in the market, Yuchai’s marketing system has been operating intensively and aggressively. It has seized market share. After numerous investigations, Yuchai found that the rural and overseas markets have great potential, decisively selling products from the “town” to the “township,” and from “ Domestic "sold to "overseas" opens up new market space. Last year, the national agricultural machinery subsidies were 4 billion yuan, and this year it increased to 13 billion yuan. For every farmer buying a farmer, the average subsidy is nearly 30%, and the maximum subsidy for large-scale machinery is 120,000 yuan. According to the current market share of Yuchai farm machinery up to 40%, the national market will bring Yuchai an increase of 500 million yuan per month. Yuchai's products have a cost-effective advantage in the international markets of the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia, Central and South America, and are very popular with local customers. In the financial crisis, the engine industry in Europe and the United States and other developed countries was also hit, and the cost-effectiveness of Yuchai's products was fully realized. While making breakthroughs in diesel engine exports, Yuchai excavators are also exported to more than 30 countries and regions in five continents such as Europe, America and Oceania, with an internal and external sales ratio of 1:1. In 2008, Yuchai exported 952 excavators to export. The amount of USD 23 million was the highest in history, among which the export of excavators below 15 tons ranks first in the country, accelerating the pace of internationalization of Yuchai. On February 17, 2009, Yuchai entered into a 10 million US dollar agreement for the supply and sale of engine products with Russian companies. It was the first time that China's single engine products were exported to Russia in bulk.

Saving the power to win the future

"I was not nervous about the decline in sales during last year's severe financial crisis. I was not determined to be a hero at one time." This was a word that Junping spoke to reporters during the two sessions of the country.

In the fourth quarter of 2008, Yuchai's sales also fell sharply with the market, but Yuchai still confidently and boldly reformed and innovated, so ushered in this year's "warm spring." In the first quarter of 2009, many companies were busy with the difficulties brought about by the financial crisis. Yuchai was busy producing Yuchai engines that were in short supply. At the same time, Yuchai did not slow down the pace of corporate reforms. Instead, it continued to deepen the reform of the company and continued to accumulate internal forces to win the future.

The continuous and healthy development of Yuchai, especially since 2001, has ranked first in the country in terms of engine production and sales for eight consecutive years, and the “Yuchai phenomenon” that is currently bucking the market is inseparable from Yuchai’s innovation, culture, and team. With Yuchai's product development principles of “advance conception and leading application”, we insist on producing a generation, R&D generation, and planning a generation. We have built a large series of products with a wide range of power and a wide range of applications. We have seized every opportunity for Yuchai. Quickly laid the foundation for the market. The acquisition of the “National Quality Award” has established Yuchai’s management innovation as a benchmark in the industry. The core concept of “green development, harmony and mutual benefit” covers the company's responsibility, excellence, humanism and values. The corporate culture leads all Yuchai people toward “creating world-renowned brands and accomplishing large multinational corporations”. Corporate vision strives hard. Yuchai's domestic best engine R&D team, brave and brave sales team, the production team called Tiejun, and the management team leading the company's successful transformation have all become important factors in promoting the sustainable and healthy development of Yuchai.

In addition, Yuchai also optimizes the industrial structure and builds industrial clusters so that the development of the company is moving in a healthier direction. Yuchai has stripped industries with low relevance, small scale, and low technology content. The state-owned shares completely withdrew from 9 subsidiaries including Daye Company, paper products company and clothing company. At the same time, Yuchai focused its efforts on expanding and expanding the main industry clusters, and implemented control over large enterprises with high correlation and core components, and extended the industrial chain. In November 2008, Yuchai successfully entered the Haihong Group and acquired a 35% stake in the company to solve the bottleneck problem of Yuchai Heavy Industries' long-term reliance on imported hydraulic components. This laid a solid foundation for building the Yuchai Heavy Industry Group. China Road Machinery Network is the mainstream and authoritative communication media of the construction machinery industry.
