Danyang has formed a large number of small and medium processing plants to form an illegal auto parts industry chain

When there is a new car on the market, Danyang's auto parts market will soon have high imitation accessories available. This high efficiency depends on Danyang's perfect auto parts industry chain. From capital to mold, from production to assembly, from wholesale to logistics, Danyang Auto Parts has already formed a complete set of industrial chain.

Objectively speaking, most auto parts companies in Danyang are legal and the auto parts they produce are also legal. However, in such a mature auto parts production environment, a small number of illegal auto parts companies also enjoy the benefits brought by the mature market, of course, there are some regular manufacturers counterfeiting the original auto parts phenomenon.

The operation of the workshop formed an industrial chain and continued eastward from Xinqiao Town of Danyang City. It reached Jiepai Town, and the Yangtze River flows through the east side of the town. The traffic of the town is particularly developed. The town is famous around the country for its lights. In the words of the local people, "only you can't think of it, you can't buy it."

Just entering the town of Jiepai, Lunan had an eye-catching big brand and wrote "China Automotive Lamps City." Entering the city of lights, dealers are carrying a large vehicle with licenses from around the country and transporting a box of car lights to the country.

During the visit, the reporter found that the business division of labor is very clear, and some sales of finished lights, some sales of lights on the screws, lampshades, light bulbs and so on. The reporter walked into a car light store casually, and the staff members were busy and even had no time to deal with reporters. The reporter saw that the facade was not large, and that part of the doorway belonged to the headlamps exhibition area, and various kinds of headlights were displayed on the counter. Going inward again is the work area. Four women workers are assembling the lights. No matter who walks or stays by them, they will not look up or talk. According to the owner, they can assemble more than 300 different kinds of lights every day. Of course, the monthly salary is also more than 4,000 yuan. “Are your lights the original or deputy parts?” After about a minute, the owner said: “We are all deputy parts here, and there are very few original parts in the entire market.” “How do the lights sell?” In the face of reporters' questions again, the owner who was loading the car was impatient and said, "Look at what kind of lights you buy, or how many." Then walk away.

Subsequently, the reporter went to another car lamp shop, the boss is very enthusiastic about the introduction of the lights, part of the deputy plant parts, part of the three non-counterfeit products, mixed with sales. "The most expensive car lights are only a hundred dollars, the key is that you can hardly tell the truth."

After selling fake accessories to earn high profits, the reporters contacted an industry insider, named Lin Jun, who was from Fujian and worked hard for years in the auto city. According to him, many auto parts stores sell half of their products as deputy parts and half as unlicensed counterfeit auto parts. The auto parts market's deputy parts and counterfeit parts coexist for a long time. Many counterfeit parts with high level of counterfeiting and even the sales staff employed by some merchants are not aware of the difference between them and real deputy parts. At present, many stores like to receive such deputy parts or fake car parts because they can earn high profits. So many small factories are now starting to produce fake car accessories, and then to the Auto Parts City to sell to various businesses.

It is worth mentioning that, for the sake of “safety”, fake parts manufacturers are mostly single-line contacts. In other words, if the buyer takes the initiative to find the seller, the non-acquaintance contacts the mobile phone number and the other party refuses to answer the call. The reporter tried to call several numbers and said that he wanted to order some auto parts. The other person had hung up the phone on the grounds that he was wrong.

In addition, there are some stores that specifically repackage the fake accessories and turn them into "deputy factory parts." They are then placed in the store and sold blatantly.

The reporter once suggested looking for a similar "OEM" store, but Lin Jun refused. Because similar behavior has become the “memory and regulation” of many stores, people have always avoided it.

The reason why consumers are difficult to distinguish between genuine and fake suspicions of deputy factory parts and false accessories is due to the existence of soil. In the interview, Lin Jun told reporters that the auto parts market is very complicated, and false accessories turned into a vice factory parts can also be regarded as a hidden rule in the industry.

It is understood that with the increase in the number of private cars in recent years, the demand for car repairs is increasing, and the high prices of accessories and repairs for many 4S stores make it difficult for consumers to accept, so some car owners will propose car repairs. Some additional requirements, such as giving maintenance and so on. In order to reduce costs and meet the requirements of vehicle owners, some 4S stores also used various methods to allow deputy factory parts or counterfeit accessories to enter the store for mixed sales. In addition, insurance companies have habitually closed one eye for similar phenomena, but consumers are hard to discern, and therefore suffer from deception.

In the interview, whether Mr. Wang of Zibo or Lin Jun of Jiepai, they all believe that it is the high price of 4S stores that leads to the loss of customers. It is not denied that the monopoly of the accessories industry is harmful to the interests of consumers. At present, the price of parts and components is very high, which is the main reason why the prices of accessories on the market are high. It is precisely because of this, the vice plant parts and false accessories have survived the soil, and developed into flooding within the acceptance of many car owners. "Actually, as far as auto parts are concerned, some of them can be true or false, but there is a difference in the length of their lives. However, there are significant differences in other key parts that affect vehicle stability." An expert from the College of Transportation and Vehicle Engineering told reporters that accessories such as lights and interiors are less problematic with fake replacements, but accessories such as engines and suspension systems that are related to the vehicle must be used genuinely. It is best to go to a regular store for repair and replacement.

The manager of a 4S shop also said that for the relationship between vehicle safety, such as brake suspension systems, airbags, engines, transmissions, etc., in the warranty period or do not use "deputy factory parts", otherwise there is no warranty is second, affecting the vehicle Stability and accidents are of great concern. For the appearance of accessories, such as tail, etc., the person in charge that can be appropriate to use some "deputy factory parts", but "also must not affect the integrity and safety of the vehicle as the premise."

Looking forward to turning into a regular company in the Jiepai Auto Lamp City interview, the reporter discovered that many shops in the huge market were closed, some had phone numbers hanging in the doorways, and others had "leasing" billboards. The reporter later discovered that these shops were originally the heads of small workshops, because such small workshops were often organized by the family as the unit of production, the boss usually in the "factory", there is a need to get the direct telephone contact. Because of the low threshold, there are many such factories.

Relatively more technical content is the mold manufacturing company. There are hundreds of large and small mold manufacturing companies in Jiepai and Xinqiao. Whenever a new car is put on the market in China, these mold manufacturing companies will introduce mold products to the market for the first time. Downstream lamps, rearview mirrors and bumper manufacturers can buy molds and start production.

During the interview, the reporter met the yellow boss who was engaged in auto parts production. At the age of 36, he was born and raised in Danyang. When he was young, he began to run business in Jiepai's auto parts market. After earning the first pot of gold, he invested in a small car lamp factory. "Said the factory, in fact, is a few small factories, hired a dozen people, specifically assembling lamps." Huang boss told reporters that at the earliest because of the lack of funds, his factory can only carry out incoming materials assembly. Later, they accumulated a part of the funds, lent some money, and expanded the scale of the factory. They not only produced car lights, but also produced bumpers. “Bumper profits are bigger, but there are more investments. It takes more than 1 million to buy molds.”

In Jiepai and Xinqiao, there are not many owners of auto parts factories that run their business, and Huang Bo’s signature can be said to be a typical case of the local auto parts industry.

The reporter found that many small and medium-sized auto parts companies in the locality are paying more and more attention to the brand effect. The practitioners also hope to get rid of the low-cost and low-quality hats as soon as possible. In their view, this is the only way for the small and large companies to grow from weak to strong. road. The public information also shows that more and more Danyang auto parts companies have transformed into an authorized accessory processing plant for automobile manufacturers. This change is a good news for the local auto parts industry.
