Recently, the Guangzhou Municipal People's government issued the notice of "several measures for Guangzhou to support the stabilization, reinforcement and strengthening of the automobile and core parts industry chain" (hereinafter referred to as "several measures"). The "several measures" is divided into five chapters, with a total of 20 articles to support the development of automobile related industries, covering the support for the construction of a safe and controllable industrial chain supply chain system, the proximity of the construction of a "432" new pattern of Automobile Industrial Park Enhance the independent innovation and core competitiveness of the automotive industry chain, accelerate the promotion and application of new energy vehicles, and strengthen the supply guarantee of factor resources. It is worth mentioning that in the "several measures", the Guangzhou municipal government instructed all major departments to provide financial support and incentives to relevant enterprises with "real money". Among them, the Municipal Science and Technology Department allocates no more than 500million yuan in the department budget to support the automobile industry chain every year, and uses the 230billion yuan credit line of Guangzhou "chain finance cooperation" financial institutions to help enterprises reduce financing costs. What impact will the "several measures" bring to the auto market? How will relevant departments respond next? Yangcheng Evening News reporter interviewed relevant experts. Releasing new dividends, the automobile industry has ushered in all-round development. Since late May this year, a number of favorable policies for car purchase have been introduced from the whole country to local governments, from the government to car enterprises, bringing tangible benefits to consumers, such as halving the purchase tax of new cars, sending new energy vehicles to the countryside, and loosening the binding of second-hand cars. The automobile industry is ushering in a wave of "concentrated outbreak period". The 20 "several measures" released by Guangzhou this time not only focus on the above sectors, but also pay special attention to the stable, complementary and strong chain of the automobile and core parts industry, with unprecedented support. "Several measures are mainly aimed at ensuring supply in the supply chain. Through the government's main efforts, we can build various industrial chain blocks and support the main enterprises of the chain to form a nearby and diversified auto industry spare parts supply chain." Pan Helin, CO director and researcher of the digital economy and financial innovation research center of the International Business School of Zhejiang University, said in an interview with the reporter of Yangcheng Evening News that "several measures" are on the one hand to prepare for the epidemic and prevent the supply chain from being blocked. Ensure the operation of the automobile industry chain policy and maintain the stability of the supply chain through the nearby and diversified supply chain and industrial chain construction methods; On the other hand, it is to strengthen the overall strength of Guangzhou's automobile manufacturing industry, form a complete supply chain and build an automobile city through the construction of industrial chain supply chain and short board. It is reported that the 20 articles of the "several measures" are valid until December 31, 2025, which means that Guangzhou will provide "real money" financial support and incentives to the automotive industry in the next three years through urban linkage, department collaboration and other forms, and help improve the independent innovation and core competitiveness of Guangzhou's automotive industry chain. It is worth noting that in terms of improving the independent innovation and core competitiveness of the automotive industry chain, the Guangzhou Science and Technology Department allocates no more than 500million yuan in the department budget every year, which is specially used to support the upstream and downstream enterprises of the automotive industry chain and related enterprises that adapt to automotive parts to carry out joint research and development of core parts and key technologies, and the amount of financial support for a single project is no more than 100million yuan. It is understood that these R & D projects include key technology research and development, such as vehicle specification level chip design, intelligent driving and "three electricity" core system. In order to promote the remanufacture of auto parts, Guangzhou plans to build a green recycling auto parts remanufacture Industrial Park in Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay District, and carry out pilot projects for the full life cycle management of automobile use, and pilot demonstration projects for the echelon utilization and recycling of waste power batteries. Each pilot demonstration project will be rewarded with no more than 30% of the project's fixed asset investment, with a maximum of no more than 100million yuan for a single enterprise. At the same time, a five-year loan discount subsidy will be given to the pilot demonstration project, with a maximum of no more than 10million yuan per year for a single enterprise. In order to promote the reform of "software and hardware work together to define cars", Guangzhou will reward vehicle enterprises with 10million yuan per model for models that meet the L3 automatic driving level and above of the Ministry of industry and information technology, and a maximum of 30million yuan per year for a single enterprise. In terms of investment attraction, Guangzhou will particularly support the introduction of intelligent networking and new energy vehicle manufacturing projects with a new investment of more than 2billion yuan, intelligent networking and new energy vehicle research and development projects with a new investment of more than 1billion yuan, and national "specialized and special new" enterprise projects in the field of automobiles and core components. In addition, Guangzhou supports the establishment of the Guangzhou intelligent networking and new energy vehicle industry development fund with a total scale of 10billion yuan to attract social capital such as vehicle and upstream and downstream enterprises of the industrial chain. Make full use of the 230billion yuan credit line of the city's "chain financial cooperation" financial institutions to help enterprises reduce financing costs. With the help of new development, new energy vehicles have further broken the situation. The previously adopted work plan of Guangzhou for accelerating the promotion and application of new energy vehicles in the personal field proposed that during the period from July 1 to December 31, 2022, individual consumers should be given a comprehensive subsidy for purchasing and using their own brand new energy vehicles (hybrid vehicles with oil and electricity) in Guangzhou, with a maximum subsidy of 10000 yuan. The 20 measures are intended to further break the situation for the promotion of new energy vehicles. Lin Jiang, a professor of economics at Lingnan College of Sun Yat sen University, said that Guangzhou needs to pay more attention to the size of cars. He analyzed that as a national central city, the core city and provincial capital of Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Great Bay area, Guangzhou should not only play an exemplary role, but also stabilize economic growth. The annual output of nearly 3million vehicles in Guangzhou accounts for more than 90% of the province and 11.3% of the country, ranking first in cities across the country for three consecutive years. This part of the volume is the driving force for stabilizing the economy, so the transformation and upgrading of automobile structure is particularly important. "In general, the" several measures "have seamlessly connected the development of traditional vehicles and new energy vehicles. It is characteristic to not only stabilize growth, but also expand new ideas to make room for the future development of the automotive industry." He said. To complete the conversion between old and new power, the power comes from new energy vehicles. "The fourth chapter of several measures separately states that accelerating the promotion and application of new energy vehicles, from which we can see that stabilizing and expanding the consumption of new energy vehicles is an effective way to ensure the smooth operation of the automotive industry." Lin Jiang said. First of all, the "several measures" support the optimization of the traffic environment of new energy vehicles. Guangzhou plans to enjoy free parking privileges according to relevant regulations for new energy vehicles that enter the parking lot under the government guided price and government pricing management, or enter the temporary parking space on urban roads managed by the municipal transportation administrative department in the central six districts. Secondly, Guangzhou will provide comprehensive subsidies for the promotion and application of qualified new energy vehicles in the personal field according to relevant regulations. Support the post market development of auto finance, second-hand car trading, maintenance and beauty, data value-added, etc., accelerate the layout of after-sales markets such as "three electricity" maintenance of new energy vehicles, explore the construction of auto museums and auto theme parks, and promote Guangzhou auto culture. Support the construction of Guangdong fuel cell vehicle demonstration city clusters, focus on key scenarios such as municipal administration, sanitation, logistics, accelerate the demonstration operation of fuel cell heavy trucks, special vehicles and buses, and focus on supporting the technological innovation of key parts industry chain and improving industrialization capacity, hydrogen supply, fuel cell vehicles and other fields. In addition, Guangzhou also supports breakthroughs in power battery technology. Promote the development of battery manufacturing towards small, light, diversified, long-term and environmental protection. Encourage power battery manufacturers in the city to improve product competitiveness, and support key battery projects in the way of "one case, one discussion". Support the construction of a "fast and slow" charging facility system. Promote the transformation and upgrading of existing public charging stations, encourage the construction of super high-power DC fast charging facilities according to the mode of gas stations, and comprehensively promote the layout of intelligent and orderly slow charging systems in residential communities and underground parking lots. Actively guide social capital to invest in the construction of charging infrastructure in Guangzhou, and give construction subsidies to super high-power DC fast charging facilities and power exchange stations. Looking forward to the new future, how can the relevant functional departments in Guangzhou help to build a trillion level "smart car city" in some areas? Pan Helin said that first of all, relevant departments should implement the nearby and diversified layout of the industrial chain, introduce more enterprises in the automobile supply chain, and carry out production nearby. Secondly, relevant departments should do a good job in supporting, improving the business environment, and promoting tax cuts and fee reductions. Finally, relevant departments should plan infrastructure, not only through subsidies and other policies to stimulate the consumption of new energy vehicles and intelligent vehicles, but also through infrastructure investment to promote the implementation of autonomous driving and other technologies, such as improving vehicle road coordination. The China Automobile Industry Association predicts that China's automobile sales are expected to reach 27million units in 2022, with a year-on-year increase of about 3%. Among them, the sales volume of passenger cars is expected to be 23million, an increase of about 7% year-on-year; The sales volume of commercial vehicles is expected to be 4million, with a year-on-year decrease of about 16%; The sales volume of new energy vehicles is expected to reach 5.5 million, with a year-on-year increase of more than 56%. Guangzhou has always ranked first in the country in terms of vehicle output and has become a veritable "city of automobiles". From 2018 to 2021, the automobile manufacturing industry accounted for more than a quarter of the manufacturing industry in the city, driving the city's total industrial output above Designated Size to increase by more than 1 percentage point annually. In the first quarter of 2022, the output value of automobile manufacturing industry increased by 16% year-on-year, contributing 72% to the growth of industries above Designated Size in the city. With the vigorous development of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial reform, a large number of major disruptive technological innovations have emerged, and data-driven and cross-border integration have profoundly changed the industrial landscape. Relying on the trillion level industrial cluster of intelligent networking and new energy vehicles, Guangzhou will seize the opportunity of data industry integration development, accelerate the formation of new growth engines and new industrial systems, achieve "lane changing overtaking" in some areas, and help Guangzhou build a trillion level "smart car city" with international competitiveness.
