according to fast technology on september 11, a blogger recently revealed that car companies or oem manufacturers have reached a crazy level in lowering prices in the supply chain.

for example, a price that has just been negotiated,if the leader is not satisfied, he can immediately call for a tender and cut the price significantly again. it’s either do it or get out.

for suppliers, if they do not do this, workers' wages will still be paid, equipment depreciation cannot be amortized, and cash flow pressure is huge, which will result in huge losses.

if you do it, there will be no profit, but you can feed your workers, amortize the depreciation of equipment, and make cash flow turn around. however, this is a situation of continuous bleeding. if you can't outlast your competitors, you will end up outlasting yourself. china's nev automotive supply chain is entering the "final crazy stage."

in addition, other media reported that in recent years, the domestic automobile industry has grown rapidly, but market competition has become increasingly fierce. in order to control costs, automobile companies have turned their attention to upstream manufacturers.

data shows that the average profit margin of china's automobile industry will fall to 5.0% in 2023.compared with the previous year, it fell by 0.7 percentage points and even failed to reach the average profit margin of industrial enterprises.

some auto parts suppliers are suppressed by the strong bargaining power of automakers, who demand that suppliers cut prices significantly, even to below the cost line.

moreover, because the accounts have not been settled, after the contract is signed, the delivered parts will also be subject to the newly signed lower price, which will put greater operating pressure on parts manufacturers.

industry insiders pointed out that after car companies could no longer bear the cost burden brought by price cuts,it will inevitably be passed on to suppliers, which will in turn affect service quality and ultimately user experience.
