In addition to the medical workers who are fighting on the front line of this epidemic and the celebrities who are giving generously, there is another group of people who are also attracting a lot of attention and getting a lot of favorable comments - the car companies.
It seems to me that whenever there is a "big event" - such as the 2003 SARS outbreak and the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake - the automotive industry comes to the rescue. The automotive industry has always been there to help. And in this epidemic, car companies also assume social responsibility, donate money and goods, not only is the background of the state-owned automobile enterprises, many private car companies are also devoted to.
And in this "war epidemic", car companies in addition to the traditional cash, in-kind donations, but also provide special vehicles and travel services support, worthy of our attention and praise.

Negative-pressure ambulance is accurate support, testing the system emergency response ability of the car companies
Epidemic came suddenly, on the one hand, medical reinforcement, and constantly improve the diagnosis, treatment efficiency; on the other hand, a large number of patients need to isolate, transfer transfer to hospitals, and the existing ambulance vehicles stretched to the limit. 1 January 24, the New Year's Eve, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Department of Consumer Goods Industry, issued an urgent production of negative-pressure ambulances to a number of domestic car companies. The Department of Consumer Goods Industry of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued an urgent notice to a number of domestic automobile enterprises to urgently produce negative-pressure ambulances, and required that they be completed before February 5 and delivered to the relevant units for use. The automobile enterprises that received the task immediately coordinated and rushed to work overtime.
The production of a negative pressure ambulance has to go through two major steps: the production of the base car and the modification of the base car, which generally takes about half a month; and the modification of the car, which needs to go through a number of processes such as heat preservation treatment, interior installation, installation of medical equipment, and installation of negative pressure facilities, which also takes about half a month. In this way, the whole production process takes about a month. This urgent task requires about 10 days to complete, only 1/3 of the normal schedule, and due to the lack of staff during the Spring Festival and bring further impact. It can be imagined that each car company in such a short period of time to complete the task of how much pressure, how to test the management level of the enterprise manufacturing system.
Following the first batch of 26 million donations, BAIC Group combined with its own resources to once again "accurate" aid, combined with BAIC Foton and other 10 of its automotive units **** with the purchase of 66 vehicles to serve the epidemic area. Among them, 40 Foton Tuyano negative pressure ambulances will be donated as the main model for the epidemic area services, the vehicles will be February 8 from Weifang, Shandong Province departed to the most serious epidemic in Hubei, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Henan, Hunan Province and Beijing.
Chery Automobile, in addition to the donation of 10 million yuan, its Ruifu Special Vehicle Co., Ltd. in the second day after receiving the notice, that is, the first day of the New Year, the urgent deployment of the resumption of the depot work, the production of specialized in the rescue of the negative pressure-type ambulance vehicles, are still working overtime to catch up with the work of 20 ambulances will soon be sent to the region of the epidemic in the near future.
After receiving the "emergency notice", SAIC MAXUS assigned the task to Wuxi Branch. As the largest production base of SAIC MAXUS, Wuxi Branch is the only enterprise in Wuxi capable of producing negative pressure ambulances. After receiving the task, Wuxi Branch also started to rework on the first day of the Chinese New Year, and put all its efforts into the production of SAIC MAXUS?V80. SAIC MAXUS in addition to the production of 60 sets of negative pressure type ambulance vehicles, January 23, at the request of Wuhan transportation department, Wuhan set up an epidemic prevention and control of volunteer fleet, and the first batch of the fleet is made up of 100 MAXUS?G10, and has been in Wuhan to help fight the epidemic.
Time is life, this reasoning everyone understands, but specific to the implementation, it is necessary to overcome many difficulties. Expedited production of negative pressure ambulances, in addition to coordinating the rhythm of production, followed by shipping and delivery. Epidemic + Spring Festival holiday, coupled with traffic control around the world, which also involves a variety of coordination docking; where manpower and transportation are involved, but also to do a good job of their own epidemic protection ....... Many car companies have set up special groups for this purpose, building up cross-border and cross-location communication mechanisms.

Travel services: from "icing on the cake" to "snow in the charcoal"
Expedited production of negative pressure ambulances is hard power, then this war epidemic, car companies organized travel support is the "soft power".
Wuhan city in the "closed city" after the further ban on motor vehicles on the road, Wuhan people do not leave their homes, how to protect life? The medical staff working overtime and how to do? Dongfeng Motor is in the main battlefield against the epidemic, in addition to huge donations, but also in the face of danger to set up a 1,000 Dongfeng travel protection fleet, directed to the community residents, to provide door-to-door delivery of food, medicine, meals and other emergency services. Dongfeng Travel has also set up a "Dongfeng Travel Employee Pioneer Team" consisting of 50 employees in Han, to ensure that the directed community service work.
In addition, in order to do a good job of preventing and combating the epidemic, Dongfeng Mobility set up an epidemic emergency response team on January 21, and activated the emergency response plan for its online taxi, cab and time-share business. In order to do a good job of protecting its drivers, Dongfeng Travel issued protective clothing, masks and gloves for its drivers, and disinfectant liquid and other disinfecting equipment for its vehicles.
On Jan. 28, the Great Wall's OU Travel took the initiative to lend a helping hand and set up the "OU Travel Emergency Protection Fleet for Fighting Epidemics," which is on standby 24 hours a day to provide necessary transportation services for the medical staff and the command department, such as picking up and dropping off personnel, and transporting medical materials.
Geely, as the highest-selling car company among independent brands in 2019, in addition to providing 200 million yuan of special fund assistance for the epidemic, its Cao Cao Travel has also set up a fleet of vehicles to provide free travel services for residents who need to go out.
And as one of the representatives of the new car-making forces, Xiaopeng Automobile, in addition to donating 3 million yuan worth of protective clothing, goggles, masks and other medical materials and vehicles, its "Roc Travel" also provides free travel services for the designated hospitals in Guangzhou, so that medical and scientific research workers and other personnel to travel quickly.
In addition to the above-listed travel teams, there are many car companies and Internet companies are trying to improve the relevant services to enhance the strength and efficiency of the protection between the epidemic, and the emergence of a number of volunteers, which is touching.
Written in the end: "car industry miscellany" suggests that the love to support the important, do a good job of scientific self-protection is even more important, for the travel driver, the enterprise should first ensure that sufficient epidemic prevention items and do a good job of health epidemic prevention, vehicle disinfection and epidemic prevention of training, and reasonable arrangements for personnel scheduling, rest and relaxation, and service area - all of which, all of them! All of this is a test of the comprehensive response ability of car companies to cope with the crisis. It is believed that all the automobile people will be able to play an efficient mechanism to assist the relevant departments to win the battle of epidemic prevention and defense! Car Talk will keep an eye on this.
