News Alert: China's aluminum alloy wheel hub is a national brand with independent intellectual property rights. The aluminum alloy wheel hub is an important symbol of China's transformation from a manufacturing power to a manufacturing power, and a major trading nation to a power trading nation. The largest export product. China's aluminum alloy wheel products have been widely used by auto parts companies such as Mercedes, BMW, Volkswagen, Audi and other large multinational companies. However, on the way to the international market, it is inevitable that the aluminum alloy wheel industry encountered the first anti-dumping investigation. People in the industry believe that this has helped the domestic wheel hub companies play a preventive role in joining the increasingly international market competition. A round of anti-dumping investigations of aluminum alloy wheels has caused domestic wheel hub enterprises to chill. When China's auto industry is still immersed in the joy of the rapid recovery of the domestic market, the EU's anti-dumping big clubs waved toward China's auto parts industry. In recent days, from the China Automobile Association and the Electrical and Mechanical Commerce Association held a press conference against the European Commission anti-dumping filing, to the EU despite our opposition, on the rush to investigate the aluminum alloy wheels from China, and then to the Business Association said it will actively organize the company to respond , and the Ministry of Commerce expressed several concerns about the case, aluminum alloy wheel industry gathered all sectors of the eye. Responding to: Low-key and Confidence The reporter also felt the change of related companies during the entire interview process—from the anxiety of the beginning to the calm and low-key after accepting the reality of the case. "This is the first anti-dumping investigation that China's aluminum alloy wheels have encountered. It will also be a lesson that China's aluminum alloy wheel manufacturers must mature in the international market." Deputy Secretary-General of China Automobile Industry Association, Shi Jianhua In an interview with reporters, he said. “After the official filing of the EU on August 13, we immediately launched a response plan in accordance with the relevant procedures of the company. We actively communicated well with the government, industry associations and other agencies, and at the same time, we prepared the respondent’s work under the guidance of lawyers. "As the world's largest aluminum alloy wheel manufacturing enterprise and the largest exporter of Chinese aluminum alloy wheels to the EU, Wang Boxiang, manager of sales management department of Qinhuangdao CITIC Decker Wheels Manufacturing Co., Ltd., was only briefly introduced in an interview with reporters. The impact of the case on the industry, as to the details of follow-up defense did not talk about. He said that the anti-dumping investigation was of major importance because it was not a single company but the entire industry of aluminum alloy wheels in China. If anti-dumping is established, Chinese aluminum alloy wheel hub companies will lose the European market. Not only has the existing orders been lost, but also the previous development efforts have been terminated. They will be forced to withdraw from future European export markets that have been certified through strict technical thresholds. The Chinese alloy wheel industry will be hit hard and the upstream industry will have a domino effect. Nearly one hundred thousand. Industrial workers will face the danger of unemployment. In addition, aluminum alloy wheel companies will face unequal competition and be deprived of the right to participate in the European auto parts market supply. In another company involved in the investigation, Mr. Zeng, a legal advisor of Wanfeng Aowei, also said in an interview with reporters: “Once the ruling on anti-dumping is established, the EU will impose a tariff of up to 33% on the product for five consecutive years. It is clear that this is a typical case with trade protection colors. We will actively prepare relevant complaints.†In addition, when a reporter asked about the company’s follow-up action, the person said that it was not convenient to disclose more. Regarding the low profile of corporate responding, industry sources have explained that the current case has been established and that instead of speaking more, it may leave the tongue. This fierce anti-dumping investigation does not allow companies to be sloppy. In an interview with reporters, Li Xiaoqing, Secretary General of the Wheel Committee of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, stated that if he loses the case, it may involve the employment of workers in dozens of related companies in China. At the same time, the EU's anti-dumping measures may trigger other countries and regions to follow suit, so the industry attaches great importance to this case. The reporter learned from the interview that aluminum alloy wheel hubs are the earliest mass-exported auto parts in China. The export volume of aluminum alloy wheel hubs is huge. It is an important symbol of China's transformation from a manufacturing power to a manufacturing power, and a trading power to a power trading nation. product. Aluminum alloy car wheels are also the products with the largest export volume of the national self-owned brand components. The rise and fall of this industry is closely related to the healthy growth of China's own branded parts and components industry. The legal department of the China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Mechanical and Electrical Products that responds to production companies stated that the crux of the series of problems lies in the fact that Chinese enterprises have never been granted a market economy status. If the enterprises involved can later provide the EU with reliable and compliant production and operating cost data, It is possible to avoid being sanctioned. However, the reporter learned that because the EU has always regarded China as a "non-market economy country," in this case, Chinese enterprises have hoped to receive market economy status. “In the case of CITIC Dika, the normal operations of the company will not be significantly affected in the short term. Our daily activities such as production and operations are proceeding in an orderly manner. We firmly believe that problems arising in development will inevitably pass through continuous development. To solve it." Wang Boxiang said. Cooperation: Win-win choices From the earlier Europe and the United States to China on the issue of import of auto parts to the WTO, to the recent US International Trade Commission to make an affirmative damage decision on my special car and light truck tire protection case, our representative subsequently Actively lobbying in the United States, many people can not help but wonder what happened to the Chinese auto parts industry. Why have trade frictions continued in recent years? Xia Chuanlin, executive deputy secretary-general of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, may have given us some hints: “Because of the financial crisis, European and American automobile industries have been hit hard. This year, some European companies have abandoned some small orders in consideration of the cost issue. Orders subsequently flowed to China's parts and components companies. Therefore, the situation of China's spare parts enterprises this year is better than that of their foreign counterparts. This has also buried potential trade frictions for China's parts and components companies." Zhao Yumin, director of the International Marketing Department of the International Trade and Economic Cooperation Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce, said in an interview with reporters that as China's auto vehicles and parts penetrate the global market, related trade disputes will become frequent. “The development of parts and components industry is a symbol of a country’s industrialization. It represents the level of industrialization of a country. In the process of industrial upgrading in China, labor-intensive industries will gradually upgrade to capital and technology-intensive industries, and the development of these industries is inevitable. With industries such as Europe and the United States and other countries that have not moved out, there is a positive competition. Related industries will inevitably encounter trade frictions and other issues. Shi Jianhua said frankly: “It may be the first time that an anti-dumping investigation has been conducted. Therefore, from an industry organization to a company, we attach great importance, but at the same time, we must also look at the case correctly. Trade disputes are a matter of interest disputes, and interest disputes are inevitable. China Enterprises on the road leading to the international market, may often 'hit the wall', we must have this ideological preparation. At the same time, he also told reporters that there are many ways to solve the problem, the current business associations are mobilizing other forces, In order to help aluminum alloy wheel business to tide over the difficulties. The relevant person of the Ministry of Commerce’s Import and Export Fair Trade Bureau told the reporter: “From the perspective of industrial competitiveness, market demand and global supply chain, the EU’s anti-dumping investigation of Chinese aluminum alloy wheels is not necessary. In the era of globalization, artificially breaking the global supply "The chain is not worth the candle." The source further stated that the EU should listen to the voices of various parties more rationally and treat industrial competition and international division based on comparative advantages rationally to stop anti-dumping investigations as soon as possible. At the same time, the EU should give full play to its trade adjustment assistance system and make it relevant. The industry benefits from the EU's "Globalization Adjustment Fund", strengthens training and reengineering, research and innovation, faces competition, and takes initiative to adapt to the natural laws of transformation and upgrading. It should not use anti-dumping and passively rely on government protection. “In today’s increasingly globalized world, no one can stand alone. Only by joining forces with stakeholders and replacing cooperation with cooperation can we achieve a win-win or even a win,†said Zhao Yumin.
