The phenomenon of these autonomous Chinese Automakers is drawing increasing attention not only from academia but also from business and government circles. This paper attempts to clarify the relationship between emergence of ICAMs and International Technology Transfer. Many scholars indicate the use of outside supplies (of engines and other key-parts), as a sole reason for high-speed growth of ICAMs. However, the internal approach, at a level of how companies act, is also necessary to outline all the reasons and factors that might contribute to the process. This paper, based on organizational view, starts from historical perspective and clarifies the internal dynamics of the ICAMs.

  • "Industrial Groups and Division of Labor in China's Automobile
    The Developing Economies, XXXIII-3 (September 1995) INDUSTRIAL GROUPS AND DIVISION OF LABOR IN CHINA’S AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY TOMOO MARUKAWA I. INTRODUCTION A. Changes in the Division of Labor in China Until the 1970s, China’s industries had followed a system which can be called a vertically divided division of labor. Under this system each enterprise within an industry generally specialized in producing a particular end product within a spe- cific narrow field, and each enterprise subsumed within itself all of the stages in the production process. In the machinery industry, for example, a firm manufacturing a particular machine would carry out the final assembly process as well as the upstream machining, casting, forging, and heat-treating processes. Figure 1 illus- trates the concept of the vertically divided division of labor as was found in the automobile manufacturing industry. An enterprise subsumed within itself all of those upstream-production stages encompassed by the solid line, but very often the firm produced only one particular end product. This division-of-labor system derives partly from the preconditions in China at the time the country began industrialization. The country’s preexisting industrial base was extremely weak, and there was little hope of procuring parts and compo- nents externally. In addition, the vertically divided division of labor reduced the uncertainties inherent in transactions among enterprises because only a small num- ber of enterprises became involved in the production process from the raw-materi- als stage to the final-assembly stage. As a result the system was seen as more suit- able for a planned economy.

Car sales jumped 20 percent, nearly twice the rate of increase in 2015. Much of this vigorous expansion resulted from the country’s temporary suspension of sales taxes for cars with small engines. Volatility continued in 2017: A large drop early in the year reflected Exhibit 1 China’s auto market rebounded to a 20% sales volume growth Passenger car1 sales volume YoY growth Million cars % 22 23 20 19 17 16 16 15 13 13 11 11 11 6 2010 11 12 13 14 15 2016 1 Including sedan, MPV, SUV SOURCE: McKinsey M-view the impact of strong “pull ahead” sales in December 2016, as many consumers sought to take advantage of a lower sales tax rate before an increase took effect on January 1, 2017. However, sales growth eventually picked up again over the course of the year. While the recent resurgence in sales represents one of the most dramatic shifts in China’s automotive market, a variety of other factors are at play that will drive even more profound changes in the industry over the coming years. Perhaps the biggest of these changes involves the transformation taking place among car buyers.

  • The Case of FAW Volkswagen
    2018 International Conference on Economic Management Science and Financial Innovation (ICEMSFI 2018) ISBN: 978-1-60595-576-6 The Supplier System in Chinese Automobile Industry: The Case of FAW Volkswagen Meihui Zhao ABSTRACT Recently, the Chinese automobile industry has achieved remarkable progress. Both production and sales volumes in China have been rapidly increasing. Based on the overall auto sale volume in China, over 50 percent of production volume belongs to joint-venture manufacturers. In order to investigate competitive strategies of the Chinese automobile industry, the study of automobile companies and their supplier systems (SS) are necessary. In the current research, the joint venture manufacturer FAW VW Automobile Co. Ltd., (FAW VW), which is a leading automobile company with high performance in the Chinese market, is taken as an example. Through applying the comparative study methodology, as well as the investigation and analysis methods based on FAW-VW and its supplier system, the drawback of the current supplier system has been identified. The major implication of the proposed study is that inter-organizational relationships of FAW-VW and its suppliers are becoming stronger during the progress of solving problems while the development and production systems are still relying much on suppliers1. INTRODUCTION In the automobile assembly maker, approximately 20000 parts are assembled, and the ratio of material cost to manufacturing cost exceeds 70%. As automobile assembly manufacturers procure most of them from external parts suppliers, their competitiveness depends largely not on only their own development and production process management but also the purchasing control abilities. Therefore, when analyzing the competitiveness of automobile manufacturers, it is important for 1Meihui Zhao, Graduate School of Utsunomiya University, 350 Mine-Machi Utsunomiya, Tochigi, Japan 141 automobile manufacturers to focus on the supplier system, which is the comprehensive interdependence relationship with suppliers (Asanuma, 1997; Fujimoto, 1998).

  • Volkswagen Cars, Politics, and Culture in the Post-1978 China: the Social Construction of Success
    Volkswagen Cars, Politics, and Culture in the Post-1978 China: The Social Construction of Success Xiaolan Qiu Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Science and Technology Studies Timothy W. Luke (Chair) Daniel Breslau Ellsworth Fuhrman Saul Halfon February 13, 2012 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Volkswagen, Shanghai-Volkswagen, technology policy, sociology of technology, China Volkswagen Cars, Politics, and Culture in the Post-1978 China: The Social Construction of Success Xiaolan Qiu ABSTRACT Volkswagen (VW) is one of the first foreign carmakers that made direct investments in China after 1978. From its entry in the Chinese market to the year of 2009, VW enjoyed popularity, high reputation, and undisputed leadership in the Chinese passenger car market, and achieved a great commercial success. Most previous accounts attribute VW’s success in China to VW’s wise business operation or Chinese government’s support. This study guided by the methods and theories of technology studies, especially the actor- network theory (ANT), takes into account technical, socioeconomic, political, or cultural factors simultaneously. By selecting one of VW’s successful joint ventures with China – Shanghai Volkswagen (SVW) – as a case to do in-depth investigation, it examines the relationship between heterogeneous actors (both humans and nonhumans) and the pathways of SVW development, and has found that all of the SVW establishment, production, marketing, and development were shaped by a range of diverse social and material actors, including the central planners, local government, VW, local suppliers, Chinese consumers, and VW cars, and depended on Chinese particular political and cultural context; VW’s success in China presents a story of co-construction of power and actor-networks.

The development of high-level self-driving vehicles is still in the initial stage due to the impacts of various factors such as laws, regulations, usage environment, and technology maturity etc.. Europe, the United States, and other countries and regions have been relatively active in programming and investing in the field of autonomous driving. The R & D and tests on autonomous vehicles had been carried out earlier; the Framework Documents for Autonomous Driving Vehicles, which was jointly established by China, the European Union, Japan and the United States, had passed the examination of the United Nations in June 2019. It is a solid step in the development of high-level self-driving vehicles. However, G9 Forum (VIP the future development is still highly dependent on the supports of the policy Closed-door Meeting, environment, technology R&D, and the building of infrastructure.
