Chapter 177 War 4

The cooperation between the companies of the two major economic powers in the Far East has been formed for a long time and is dominated by various interests for a long time. The relationship is unbreakable. What to do with each other and how to besiege opponents has long been familiar. On the contrary, most Chinese companies were enemies a few months ago, and now they can sit It's already very good to negotiate together. Fortunately, everyone understands that cooperation is strong, and cooperation is weak. Cooperation may also withstand the siege of opponents. Once dispersed, it is bound to be crushed by international peers one by one. This is a war without compromise and no difference. No Chinese manufacturing company cooperates with its opponents, and neither Japan and South Korea nor North Korea. Let go of any Chinese colleague who is left alone. In this cruel collective duel, even the fairies are a little frightened. The world giants who have always been alone have to attract some partners to "strengthen the strength of confronting international forces"! Although China has always been a country with different hearts. There are traitors and lackeys, and traitors of all sizes. It is even more common to make money from national disasters. A plate of scattered sand is an inherent feature of China, but businessmen are the people who attaches the most importance to interests and know the interests best, which makes the whole world worry about angering the Chinese people. The horror appeared again, but this kind of horror was received by Japan and South Korea, which promoted the collective confrontation!

If the trade war in the Far East is carried out in the form of a single company, the final result may be much more complicated. At least, as long as the enterprises of the two countries do not unite first, then Chinese companies that always like "interests first" always like "being alone" and "good friends" Chinese enterprises will certainly not unite, at least they will not take the initiative to unite. Although everyone knows that Japanese and North Korean enterprises have a strong national character and often unite for xenophobic competition, they still lack the psychological preparation for collective confrontation. However, for the enterprises of the two countries, there is a lack of innate advantages in geographical advantage and people, coupled with the lessons learned in the Chinese market earlier, in order to maintain their survival, they must unite and compete together! They have always been advancing and retreating together. They know that if their partners are weakened, they will also be seriously weakened, at least not maintaining their previous strong position. Moreover, in the view of some national radicals, the economic war in the Far East is a "bloodless" national life-and-death war. If you want to survive, you have to trample on it. Walk over with the body of your Chinese counterparts! Originally, for most Chinese people, there is no strict concept of nationalism. For many years, products from all over the world have been sold well in China. The use of international products has become a habit with the increasing globalization of the world. What's more, the increasingly strong national strength makes them have "Far East is the Far East people far away. The consciousness of Dong. However, the opponents treated their Chinese counterparts cruelly. Such an obvious "national economic war" in the Chinese market not only aroused the counterattack of Chinese counterparts, but also aroused the almost unanimous disgust of the Chinese ordinary people. Finally, they let them suffer the consequences and once again put themselves at a disadvantage in the competition. Human beings are a very strange animal. Once they taste the sweetness, they will hold on to it. And now the Chinese manufacturing companies that have tasted the sweetness give full play to this cooperation. Its tacit understanding can be said to be that international observers are stunned and international counterparts are shocked. As a result, a War of the Three Kingdoms officially began. Later, even without the support of the people, domestic companies can maintain at least 55% of the market share, and it is relatively easy to maintain a 65% share!

With the increasingly fierce resistance and counterattack of Chinese counterparts, the days of the two opponents in East Asia have become more and more difficult. Since the market share has been promoted to 35%, they have found that it is difficult to take another half a step forward, and the means are exhausted, and there is still no way to do anything!

Statistics show that the market share of Chinese companies' products was 65% in March, rose to 65.5% in April, fell back to 65% in May, 67% in June, and remained hovering between 65% and 70% until October. In the face of the strong competitive pressure of their Chinese counterparts, the two East Asian powers abandoned their bingepres and cooperated with each other in an all-round way. However, one plus one is not equal to two, and sometimes it is smaller than two, and their cooperation has not achieved the expected effect. In fact, since the start of the market war, Chinese enterprises have been facing the pressure of two fronts. The two opponents are almost besieging together and taking what they need. Although there have been some conflicts of interest, they are basically minimized, which makes the Chinese people say, "The two countries have been working together for a long time. China," so the effect of its union is not great. In August, the market share of domestic enterprises fell from 68% to 66%. In September, it remained at 65%. In October, it remained at a high level of 65%. In October, Japanese and North Korean companies did not take advantage of it. Of course, China's domestic demand has been fully mobilized. For example, in October 38, it increased by 150% compared with the beginning of the year, and the production volume of companies has increased a lot.

Compared with February 1937, China's domestic production increased by 4.6 times, and Japan increased by 6.5 times. South Korea and North Korea are similar to Japan, but with the domestic consumption of various countries, there is still a difference between the three countries. If China produces about 325 products, then Japan produces only 200 products (80 in the domestic market), while South Korea and North Korea produce 130 products (75 in the domestic market), which roughly maintains the balance between production and sales. But in fact, Chinese enterprises need 400 to meet the requirements, Japan needs to produce 300 to meet the requirements, and South Korea and North Korea need to produce 180 to reach the balance, which makes the production shortage rate of countries 18.75%, 33.3% and 27.7% respectively. China's situation is the best, Japan's situation. The most "worrying" is that about one-third of the production cannot be carried out. There is no eternal interest between the company, especially when there is a fierce conflict between life and death and each other's interests. There is no so-called ally at all. The economic level of Japanese enterprises is higher than that of China, but for some special reason, it cannot gain an advantage in competition with Chinese enterprises. If she can get another 5 percentage points from the Chinese market, she can maintain a growth balance with her East Asian neighbors, but after ten months, she can't achieve her goals. . Although the overall situation of Chinese enterprises is slightly inferior, there are not weak companies in every industry, coupled with local advantages that cannot be ignored, so for the long-term interests of enterprises, especially the country, they can only get from South Korea and North Korea. Compared with Japan, although there are many areas where South Korean and North Korean enterprises have reached or maintained a leading level, they are generally inferior, especially in the North (original North Korea) which is lagging behind. Although they are slightly higher than the average level of their Chinese counterparts, without the local advantages of Chinese enterprises, they are naturally not " The opponent of "alliance" can still maintain the previous ratio of Japan in October (about 11:24). By November, it had dropped to 9 to 25. At the beginning of 39 years, the sales volume was less than one-third of that of Japanese enterprises. Her market share was constantly taken away by Japanese counterparts, and of course, there was also a Part of it fell into the hands of Chinese counterparts.

In the face of the "internal war" between the two companies, Chinese enterprises will naturally not let go. "Persimmons should be picked up soft". This is something that everyone is used to. Although everyone has opinions about Japan, they do not have a good impression on South Korea and North Korea. They have never been with their counterparts. Being kind and soft-hearted, taking the opportunity to weaken "uninformed" neighbors has become the first choice for many company combinations, that is to say, it can also be "smashing the water dog". By the end of 38, Chinese enterprises had gained two percentage points from South Korea and North Korea, reaching a market share of 67%. At this time, her market share was less than 8%. On the eve of the Chinese Spring Festival, it fell to about 6%, almost half. In contrast, domestic enterprises rose to 68. 5%. South Korea and North Korea became victims of market competition at this stage, and during this period, due to the strong stimulus measures of merchants, consumption in the Chinese market continued to rise, with an increase of 20%. Of course, the markets of the two countries have also grown, but not as fast as China. For example, Japan has reached 10%, and South Korea and North Korea have reached 12%. Judging from the start-up situation, Chinese enterprises accounted for 85.6% of the requirements (480) with 411 products, an increase of 4.37 percentage points, while Japan accounted for 69.9% of the requirements (345) with 241 products, an increase of 2.1 percentage points, while South Korea accounted for 126 products. It only accounted for 63% of the requirements (200), which decreased by nearly 10 percentage points, and the actual output decreased slightly. The failure of South Korea and North Korea lies in the serious reduction of China's market share, because its domestic market cannot be compared with the Chinese market at all. The success or failure of the Chinese market is the key to their survival, which is also an important reason why neighbors attach importance to the Chinese market. For them, the domestic market is narrow, the demand is not strong, and the productivity is relatively high. In addition, large companies are focusing on China. The priority policy has led to a large number of preferential conditions invested in China, which has relatively weakened the recovery of the domestic market!

However, from various signs, Japanese companies have increased the recovery of the domestic market. Since the beginning of 1939, the government has encouraged enterprises to support the domestic market, and South Korea and North Korea have also taken similar measures. From their point of view, this is also necessary, because from the situation in the past two years, the enterprises of the two countries have not received enough benefits from the Chinese market. In order to enhance the overall vitality of domestic enterprises and accelerate the development and recovery of the domestic market while strengthening the competition for the Chinese market, the effect may be better. This led to a new stage of the Battle of the Far East. The two economic powers in East Asia have strong national strength and a good economic foundation. The domestic market has recovered smoothly and has recovered well. Relatively speaking, the prospect of development is limited, but it does not mean that there is no development potential. A complete recovery is also a quite small market. Just after the Spring Festival, the rumble drum of the market war has been knocked. Economists have developed the habit of taking the country's salary, dealing with market statistics every day, analyzing statistics, drawing conclusions and expressing opinions... According to the figures, in January of the beginning of the year, South Korean and North Korean products appeared big. In the phenomenon of backlog, the backlog rate has reached about 50%, which is much higher than 35% of Japan and 25% of China, and the export ratio has also decreased from the highest 43% to 34%; while Japan has risen from 33% to 64%. Various signs show Japan's upward momentum, which is for the government or enterprises of country Z. It's not good news. Economic comments will be published every once in a while, and the slightest bit of the wind will be exaggerated, guiding the actions of companies to maintain the fruits of the commercial war. For example, the market statistics that humiliated Chinese enterprises and Chinese people in the past 37 years are made under their guidance and statistics.

For decades, China has established a perfect social statistics system, from customs to various commercial departments in the city, from manufacturing companies to specific merchant customers, all of which are controlled and counted by them. The power of the people is infinite, which is a familiar motto. At the beginning, the Chinese market was seized by the products of the two countries. Under the guidance of public opinion, the "save the country" movement broke out among the people. The current situation can be said to be created by the people, and the people's contributions are indispensable. For the two neighbors in East Asia, the feelings of the Chinese people are very complicated. They neither like them nor want them to be too weak. Especially they don't want them to be strong. The idea of a central power for thousands of years has made them particularly hate other countries pointing fingers at them and showing off their power in front of them. They like Freedom is far more than any other country and people. What makes them more uncomfortable is that the nationalism of the two countries is too strong. In the past, the level of domestic economic development was relatively low. In order to develop the economy, they attracted their investment, which made the Chinese people tired of the ideology and behavior of the two countries and worked in Japanese enterprises and Korean-funded enterprises. People are hardly in a happy mood!

The slight change in the situation between the two countries immediately attracted the attention of Chinese experts. In February, the domestic market demand of South Korea and North Korea rose by 35%, and Japan also rose by 30%, which led to a large increase in their shipments and the extrusion rate of factories began to decrease... The Chinese people are not good people, especially in relations. In the future, when it comes to the comparison of strength, no one will think that Japan is willing to give up its ambitions for China's marine resources and how to weaken the two countries, especially Japan, has become a common concern. Chinese enterprises have no energy and not enough ability to enter the markets of the two countries, so they have to attract their attention and squeeze the small markets of the two countries with China's large market. In March, Chinese companies abandoned the retreating South Korean and North Korean enterprises and regarded their Japanese counterparts as the main target of competition. On the one hand, the enterprises left by South Korea and North Korea in the Chinese market are all hard bones. No matter how compact the large enterprises are, they cannot be driven out. It is the minimum to retain 6% market share; on the other hand, Japan owns a quarter of the market, but it makes some people very jealous. If it can reduce the market share of Japanese products, it will play a greater role in the long run. Businessmen can easily feel the small changes in the market, and the statistics do appear. All enterprises also know that in April, the Chinese market share of Japanese enterprises fell to 25%, and in May, it was 22%, while South Korean and North Korean products rose from 6% to 7. .5% rose to 8% again. In just half a year, the fate of South Korean and Japanese enterprises has changed!

The increased competition among Chinese enterprises with their Japanese counterparts has had three effects. First, through efforts, the market share has increased by 1.5 percentage points, expanding their share. Secondly, the market share of Japanese companies has declined continuously, with a decline of 3.5 percentage points. On the contrary, the pressure on South Korean and North Korean enterprises has been greatly reduced. The industry has risen by 2 percentage points; the third effect is the fundamental purpose of some people, which is to shift the attention of enterprises in the two countries to China. Because the Chinese market is huge, it has reached more than twice the market of the two countries before it has fully recovered, which is related to the key to their later development. They have to pay attention to the share of the Chinese market and have to transfer their main energy to increase the recovery of the Chinese market and weaken the recovery of their own market. Strength. The effect of this action is very obvious. In May, the domestic market rose by 15 percentage points from last month, while Japan rose by 14 percentage points in the same period, while South Korea and North Korea rose by only 20 percentage points. Through market means, China has slowed down the recovery of the domestic market. Since then, the war has entered a fierce melee situation. At this time, it is basically that China and South Korean and North Korean enterprises deal with their Japanese counterparts together and compress the living space of Japanese enterprises. Statistics in May showed that the sales volume in the Chinese market increased significantly, but the actual sales volume of Japanese products declined, causing a serious squeeze. Of course, Japanese enterprises are not willing to be squeezed out of the Chinese market and fight back with all their strength. Even Korean and North Korean companies have to vigorously maintain and expand their market share in China, because they have no other choice. Only by seizing the Chinese market can they maintain and expand the company's market interests. Once they are squeezed out of the Chinese market, they will rely on it closely. The domestic market will be difficult to survive and will definitely lose in the future world competition.

Although in theory, the products of the three East Asian countries can be put into other markets in the world, in fact, at this time, it is completely impossible. The European and American markets with relatively large sales volume, after more than two years of "closed development", have long been iron barrels, which is difficult to be fast. Open the market quickly, especially the cost is not suitable, other markets are too small, and it is a place where everyone competes with each other. No one can get benefits. International companies in Japan, North America, China, South Korea, the European Union and other regions are basically evenly matched in those places, and no one can have an absolute advantage. Nowadays, the three world-recognized markets are the European Union, North America and China, and the Chinese market is even more promising than the North American market. The actual figures also illustrate this problem. In the more than two years from February 37 to May 39, the EU market expanded to 1.9 times, the North American market expanded to 2.3 times, and the Chinese market expanded 3.3 times. If the EU market was 100 in February 34, then North America was 70, while China was only 39, then In May 36 years, the European Union grew to 190, and the severely damaged North American market has recovered to 160, while the more severely damaged Chinese market also reached 128, and the gap between the three major markets is narrowing sharply. On the other hand, the combination of the three major markets in the Far East has reached 214, surpassing The large market of the European Union and the huge Far East market are not allowed to fight a bloody battle in the region by the top three in East Asia!

The actual situation is also true. The companies of the three countries have launched another round of entanglement in China (especially the mainland). The companies attack and defend each other. For a while, South Korea and North Korea cooperate with Japanese companies to deal with strong Chinese enterprises. For a while, China and Japan deal with South Korea and North Korea together, or China and South Korea join hands to deal with the gradual For more and more powerful Japanese enterprises, social statistics are still released once a month, and the domestic market conditions of the companies of the three countries and countries have been analyzed. By June, the share of Japanese products continued to decline, only a little more than 21%, while Chinese companies broke through the 70% mark and reached a strong 71%. In July, Japanese companies fought back strongly, and the share of Chinese enterprises began to decline, and 1.5 percentage points were soon lost; then Korean and North Korean enterprises took advantage of the fire. The robbed of Chinese peers has caused its market share to continue to decline, less than 67%. However, by September, Chinese enterprises still adhered to a share of 67%, while South Korea and North Korea have retreated to 8%, a decrease of one percentage point. In October, Chinese companies began to fight back, and Japanese product sales fell seriously. South Korea and North Korea also rose to 11%. But soon, South Korean and North Korean companies suffered a big loss. It fell to 8% in November and 5.5% in December. At the same time, Chinese enterprises rose to 71.5%... In seven months, the market share of Chinese companies fluctuated by 4.5 percentage points, and South Korea and North Korea reached 5.5 percentage points, and even Japan reached At 5 percentage points, we can see the degree of market competition incentive. It is said that there will be different joint phenomena almost every month or every region.

Enterprises of the three countries have focused on the Chinese market, so that the growth rate of the market is not only higher than that of the European and American markets, but also higher than that of the Japanese and the Korean and North Korean markets. According to statistics, in the second half of 39, the EU market rose 22%, the North American market rose 31%, and the Chinese market rose 33%. Ben is only 11%, and South Korea is only 17.5%. By the beginning of 1970, China had surpassed the United States (160) and the European Union (232) with 170 relative consumption in the world's major markets. At this time, the Korean and North Korean market was only 47, and the Japanese market was only 51. In the 35 months from April 37 to December 39, among the world's major markets, the European Union increased by 1.3 times, the United States increased by 2.0 times, China increased by 3.4 times, Japan increased by 1.2 times, and South Korea and North Korea increased by 2.0 times... With China's market growth rate is the largest, and Japan is the smallest. The rapid improvement of the Chinese market is related to its own large market capacity and great potential, and is also closely related to the Battle of the Far East. In order to compete for the Chinese market, under the strict constraints of the agreement, companies from various countries have stimulated the Chinese market with preferential policies and stimulated the rapid improvement of market consumption. It can be said that without the Battle of the Far East, the recovery of the Chinese market will never be so fast, and it is impossible to quickly reach the level of the European and American markets. Wait longer in the "small high-speed growth"!

And the consequences of the Battle of the Far East are also very obvious. For Japanese companies, they have a respite. The product production has increased by 3.7 times, which is higher than that of their American counterparts. They are not at a disadvantage in the competition with the world powers, which can be said to have achieved the expected goal. And the production volume of South Korea and North Korea has also increased by 3.15 times, which can be regarded as a relief. As for the slow recovery of the domestic market and the widening gap in China, they are all side effects that have to bear. Generally speaking, Chinese enterprises have achieved the greatest benefits "in the support of the people", and Japan has also received the benefits it deserves. On the contrary, South Korean and North Korean enterprises are always at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the two strong neighbors. They can not only defeat the powerful Japan, but also suffer from the Chinese counterparts who occupy various conveniences, making This economic power has to withdraw from the direct struggle with the two powerful neighbors and eventually become the little brother of China or Japan!
