On the other side, Bosch, Toyota Textile, Continental Group and other international giants exhibited on the other side of the exhibition. On the other side, many domestic exhibitors crammed together in a “little room”. In the foreign companies' showroom, not only the latest core zero can be seen. Parts products, but also to understand the industry's most cutting-edge technology; but in the vast majority of domestic companies booth, but can only see the display hub, rubber products, small parts and other low-tech products with low technical content.

This is the scene I saw at the 5th China International Auto Parts Expo just concluded. The current scene, to a certain extent, also reflects the industry status of China's parts and components industry.

In the automotive industry, there has always been a saying that parts and components are strong in the automotive industry, and parts and components are weak and the automotive industry is weak. According to the development law of the automobile industry, if a country's automobile industry wants to have strong strength, the auto parts industry must develop in a modest manner.

In recent years, benefiting from the rapid development of the automotive market, the domestic parts and components industry is also booming. However, the rapid expansion of industrial scale, the sharp increase in the number of companies, and the consecutive year-on-year growth in exports have not changed the reality of the industry itself. Due to the lack of independent core technologies and brands, most of the domestic parts and components companies can only compete on labor-intensive products with high resource consumption and low profit margins. They see the core parts and components market, including the powertrain, being used by international component giants. Firmly controlled, but more than enough.

This "restraint" brought about by the "harm", has exceeded the parts industry itself, and then affect the long-term development of China's auto industry. This also means that if China's auto industry wants to become bigger and stronger during the "12th Five-Year Plan" period, it must complete the shortcomings in spare parts as soon as possible.

In order to achieve this, we must first reverse the current concept of "reforming light vehicle parts and components" and increase investment in parts and components to enhance the industry's technological level and research and development capabilities. In addition to the input of the enterprise itself, the state should also introduce incentive policies from the policy level to guide the healthy development of the industry and technological upgrading. Moreover, in this process, it is also necessary to actively adopt international cooperation strategies, introduce advanced foreign technologies, and digest, absorb, and re-innovate, train their own talents, and not allow parts and components to drag the automobile industry.
