Japanese Auto Parts Investment In China And The Impact Of The New Trend - Spatial Grid Structure
At present, Guangzhou Development Zone, Huadu and Nansha Development Zone and the
surrounding Zhongshan, Shunde, etc., has formed a Japanese auto parts manufacturer investment in China cluster. But with the Japanese car and parts manufacturers in North China were respectively (Tianjin) and South China (Guangzhou) region compared to the larger concentration of investments, so far, Japan's major automobile manufacturers have not yet in Yangtze River Delta including Shanghai to set up production base, parts enterprises have relatively little investment. Japanese auto and auto parts to China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations from the construction-oriented auto and parts production networks in East Asia, the strategic point of view, and will accelerate the construction, including South, East and North China, including a multi-polar auto and auto parts in China production system. So the next few years in Shanghai and the Yangtze River Delta region will become the Japanese car and parts manufacturers, following North and South China, the new round of large-scale investment in China are concentrated.Japanese auto parts enterprises investment in China these developments will have a significant impact in three areas. First, Japan will strengthen cooperation with Chinese auto parts enterprises of strategic cooperation. Japanese cars and parts from the corporate investment to China and China's domestic market to both domestic sales and export changes to reduce costs, expand sales, the Japanese auto parts companies will strengthen and including private enterprises, the core of China's auto parts backbone enterprises of strategic cooperation. Second, Japan will strengthen China's auto market to adapt to technology research and development components. Auto parts in China to meet the raw material purchasing, production and sales of localization, the Japanese automakers and parts companies will change the "Japanese R & D, overseas production," the traditional model, strengthen the Chinese automotive market in China, sales of parts to adapt to technology R & D . Third, Japan will strengthen cooperation with China in energy saving, environmental protection, automotive technology and auto parts fields. Currently, Japan has the energy, environmental characteristics of hybrid energy vehicle technology development, production and marketing is a world leader, China's energy-saving, environmentally friendly automotive technology, market demand, future, Japan will strengthen cooperation with China in this area of technical cooperation and technology transfer.
The late 90s of last century, with the worldwide wave of cross-border M & A, Ford, General Motors, Renault and Toyota and other multinational auto manufacturers in the world, has through mergers and acquisitions, equity participation, etc. on the Japanese car manufacturers made large-scale mergers and acquisitions. Currently, in the 11 auto manufacturers, in addition to Toyota, Honda and Toyota Group into the big time, on the field, foreign investment has varying degrees of access to other seven Japanese automobile manufacturers.
In the Japanese auto manufacturers and parts business change, the Japanese auto parts investment in China shows a new trend.

Its mainly in four areas: (1) large amount of investment growth. According to statistics, from 1985 to 2003 3 end, including the automotive and parts manufacturers, including Japan, the transport machinery manufacturing accumulated direct investment in China more than 1.8 billion U.S. dollars, second only to the same period in electrical machinery and general machinery industries. Which accounts for about 55% of the investment is the period from 2000 to 2003 the increase. (2) the number of investment projects has grown rapidly. As of April 2005, Japan's cumulative investment in China Auto Parts 298 projects, of which nearly 40% of the investment project is the increase since 2001. (3) increased investment in large projects. According to incomplete statistics, only the first half of 2005, there including Mazda, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Japan's Denso, Toyota Automatic Loom, Aisin Seiki, etc., more than 10 auto manufacturers and multinational auto parts manufacturer, were invested in Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Sunbeam Valve Co., Ltd., Denso (Tianjin) Co., car navigation systems, automobile parts Co., Ltd. Foshan Textile Toyota, Bridgestone (Huizhou) Tire Co., Ltd., more than 10 major auto parts component production project. (4) investment chain stretching. Japanese auto production and parts enterprises to expand investment in China, not only to the associated steel, glass, rubber, paint and other raw materials industries upstream investment in China, but also for the car rental, maintenance and service stations and other downstream investment in China.

Foshan Textile Toyota, Bridgestone (Huizhou) Tire Co., Ltd., more than 10 major auto parts component production project. (4) investment chain stretching. Japanese auto production and parts enterprises to expand investment in China, not only to the associated steel, glass, rubber, paint and other raw materials industries upstream investment in China, but also for the car rental, maintenance and service stations and other downstream investment in China.
2, auto parts enterprises localization of R & D investment in China. With the Japanese auto manufacturers and parts companies to expand investment in China, more and more Japanese enterprises to speed up China auto parts series of R & D investment. So far, Koito Manufacturing (Toyota series), Japanese Shun Industrial (Honda series), Kangnai may (Nissan series) and Seiko (separate type) nearly 10 companies, in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Kunshan, etc. to set up R & D centers or R & D base.
3, auto parts enterprises in China have productive investment modular. Modular production is in accordance with the performance-one relationship between the design principles, the production and processing out of the performance parts assembled into a complete module of the course. Auto parts and modular production began in Europe in recent years, Japanese car manufacturers with low cost components to the change in procurement strategy to speed up the modular production of auto parts in China the pace. Guangzhou, Zhongshan, established in 2003 specializing in automotive airbag module rich Plast Corporation, Series 2004, Nissan established a production company Kangnai can control module and front-end modules Kangnai to Automotive Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.. At present, the Japanese electric 86 Social Science Front? 4, 2006? Installed the world economy, Kangnai can, and love and other parts of industrial enterprises have plans to expand production of auto parts in China, the modular production.

Denso Japan, Toyota series, Aisin Seiki, a small department and a number of series production of the core of large enterprises, have been with Guangzhou Honda, Nissan, Shanghai Volkswagen, Shanghai GM and other established supplier trading relationship. In recent years, Japanese car and parts manufacturers to expand European exports and reduce the excessive concentration on the formation of the ASEAN investment risk, the establishment of East Asia, mainly China and the ASEAN auto and parts production networks, actively expand the domestic market in China the same time, put the Chinese in East Asia as a production and export base of automobile and parts to build, accelerate cross-border transactions. Honda has been developed to invest in Guangzhou for the establishment of manufacturing enterprises in Asia and Europe and the United States as an export base. In addition, Honda is also preparing its family of companies in Thailand, Malaysia and other countries produce auto parts shipped to China for assembly.
5, investment in China auto parts regional distribution of multi-polarization. 2000 years ago, the Japanese auto parts investment in China mainly concentrated in the Northeast (Toyota series), Central (Nissan series) and South (Honda series) three regions. Before and after China's accession to the WTO, the Japanese auto parts investment in China to other parts of China have entered a multi-polar expansion of the period. 2000 to 2003 the three major automobile parts company in Japan to Shanghai, Jiangsu Yangtze River Delta expansion. The last two years, with the Toyota, Honda and Nissan new production base in Guangzhou in production or Plan B, the Japanese auto parts manufacturers to speed up the surrounding of Guangzhou and South China investment.
