With the gradual saturation of the domestic locomotive market, Yang Guang started the overseas investment plan in 1990, and began the evaluation in 199 1 year. Due to the huge demand for locomotives in developing countries, Chinese mainland and Indonesia, which have huge domestic markets, are regarded as investment targets. 1993, Hunan Guangnan Motorcycle Company was first established in Changsha by way of joint venture with Southern Power Group, completing the layout of Central China. After that, considering the license and access, Changzhou Yangguang Motorcycle Company and Changzhou Motorcycle Company established a joint venture on 1994. Later, the two places set up wholly-owned precision machinery factory, with engines and carburetors as the main products. Yang Guang currently has six wholly-owned or joint-venture factories in Chinese mainland. Southeast Asia, 1996 cooperated with Lippo Group to set up a base in Jakarta, Indonesia, with an annual output of 654.38+10,000 units. However, these investment strongholds face different challenges. Chinese mainland's original plan was to use the investment from Central China and East China to make the mainland's investment more complete. However, due to the serious fraud problem, the market has been delayed. In Indonesia, the initial investment is aimed at opening up the local market demand of 2.5 million locomotives every year, which is the third largest market after Chinese mainland and India. However, Yang Guang, Indonesia, was hit by the political turmoil in Indonesia, the currency fluctuated violently, and even there was an anti-Chinese riot in 1997, so the progress of the factory was stopped. Later, due to the Asian financial turmoil and political instability, the Indonesian Yangguang factory did not restart until April 2000 and entered the formal mass production stage. In order to cope with the changes in the external situation, both places have also made adjustments. Chinese mainland began to increase the proportion of exports. For example, cars are exported to Southeast Asia. In 2003, the proportion of domestic and foreign sales of Changzhou Yangguang was roughly the same, with a total of about 50,000 units. In Indonesia, the initial positioning was to produce scooter locomotives, but the local market acceptance was not high and the sales situation was not good. Later, the strategy was revised, and the light domestic CUB car preferred by the local market was transferred from Chinese mainland, and the situation gradually improved. At present, the monthly output is around 2000 ~ 3000, and there is still a lot of room for growth. In addition to local production, it also cooperates with triangle trade way to receive orders from Taiwan Province province and then transport them from Chinese mainland to Indonesia.
Yang Guang once maintained a long-term technical cooperation relationship with Honda Industry, but this relationship officially ended in 2003. At the same time, Yang Guang has mastered the key technologies of small displacement engines below 250CC through years of experience in the key technical fields of engines, and has the technical output capability. The self-made rate of products is as high as 95%. The future research and development direction is to master the technology of high-displacement engines and develop products for different market needs. On the other hand, with the adjustment of the strategic direction of the enterprise, Yang Guang began to develop engine core technologies such as electric scooters and ATVs, and extended related industries, which were called "second goods" or strategic goods. This also symbolizes that the enterprise mission that originally focused on the "second round" will be transferred to a wide range of power commodities.
