1.0 Introduction
This report explains how to conduct or expand business in the global scenario while keeping in mind
the current situation of Global financial crisis. In this report, we have recommended that China as one of
the prominent country in the world and Automobile Industry is one of the CSA of the china so make it

Page 1 of 21
stronger; China has to expand the business internationally, in our this project we are actually
proceeding with company perspective, that we chose one of the Chinese company that is contributing
to make its Automobile it’s CSA that is DongFeng.

The reason behind taking DongFeng is among the top major automobile companies of the China and is
major manufacturers of Commercial Vehicles and there is more demand of commercial vehicles two
important reasons are financial crisis and Kyoto Protocol Issue that is deeply explained in the report.

2.0 China:

China, is the largest country in East Asia and the most populous in the world with over 1.3 billion
people, approximately one-fifth of the world's population. It is a socialist republic (specifically a "people's
democratic dictatorship" according to its constitution) ruled by the Communist Party of China under a
single-party system, and has jurisdiction over 22 provinces, five autonomous regions (Xinjiang, Inner
Mongolia, Tibet, Ningxia, and Guangxi), four municipalities (Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and Chongqing),
and two highly autonomous special administrative regions(Hong Kong and Macau). The PRC's capital
is Beijing.

China's importance in the world today as a great power is reflected through its role as the world's third
largest economy nominally (or second largest by PPP) and a permanent member of the UN Security
Council as well as being a member of several other multilateral organizations including the WTO,
APEC, East Asia Summit, G-20 and Shanghai Cooperation Organization. In addition, it is a recognized
nuclear weapons state and has the world's largest standing army with the second largest defense
budget. China has been identified as an emerging superpower by academics and other experts.

2.1 Economy:

The economy of the People's Republic of China is the third largest in the world after the U.S. and
Japan with a nominal GDP of US$4.4 trillion (2008) when measured in exchange-rate terms. It is the
second largest in the world after that of the United States with a GDP of $7.8 trillion (2008) when
measured on a purchasing power parity (PPP) basis.

The financial crisis hit the global economy heavily and caused a recession in many countries, China
also to some extent suffered as the below graph shows that china faced decline in GDP growth in the
period from Jan to Jul but it was still extremely healthy compared with other major economies, it is less
than the figure expected by experts.

China Gross Domestic Product (GDP) expanded 8.90% over the last 4 quarter (Graph 1).According to
the World Bank The China Gross Domestic Product is worth 4326 billion dollars or 6.98% of the world
economy. During the past 30 years China's economy has changed from a centrally planned system that
was largely closed to international trade to a more market-oriented that has a rapidly growing private
sector. A major component supporting China's rapid economic growth has been exports growth.

2.2 Trade of China:

As part of its continuing effort to become competitive in the global marketplace, China joined the World
Trade Organization in 2001. Its major trading partners are:

United States, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Germany, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Singapore,
Taiwan, Russia, Malaysia, Australia and Thailand

Page 2 of 21
As the Chinese economy steadily grows, its foreign trade is also booming. In 1978, China ranked 32nd
on the world trade performance chart. It climbed to 15th in 1989 and further jumped from 10th in 1997
to 6th in 2001. In 2001, China's imports and exports volume was over $500 billion for the first time. In
2002, China's imports and exports continue to rise, topping $620.77 billion. In 2003, China's imports
and exports volume was $851.2 billion, a 37.1% increase over 2002. In 2008, the exports volume was
$1,428.5 billion, an increase of 17.2%; the imports, $1,133.1 billion, an 18.5% increase. In the first half
of 2009 the total value of China’s exports was 521.7 billion USD.

Now China is listed fourth on the world trade chart. At present, China has established business links
with over 220 countries and regions around the world.

3.0 CSA Identification for china:

Country Specific Advantage (CSA), while talking about from the China’s perspective almost every
industry of the China is acting as the CSA but among them we tried to choose most suitable and
probable one.

3.1 China’s leading Industries:

China has become a preferred destination for the relocation of global manufacturing facilities. Its
strength as an export platform has contributed to incomes and employment in China. It has many
leading industries account for about 48.6% of China's GDP. China ranks third, worldwide in industrial
output.

Some of the major Industries of China with their market share and Competition Index are as follows:

No Industries Market Share Competition Index

1 Real Estate 17.81% 1.87

2 Automobile 9.51% 1.42

3 Household Appliance 6.71% 1.15

4 Other Industries 5.81% 1.03

5 Tourism, Leisure & Hospitality 5.65% 1.26

6 clothing 4.49% 1.04

7 Household & Decoration 4.33% 1.06

8 communication 4.08% 1.00

9 medical service 4.06% 1.04

10 Pharmaceutical 3.89% 1.05

These all are Leading Industries of China contributing significantly in the country’s GDP.
From one point of view these all are acting as the CSA of the country, but among them we
Choose Automobile Industry of China as one of its CSA

Page 3 of 21
3.2 Automobile Industry of China:

China's automobile industry has been in rapid development since the early 1990s.

China's annual automobile production capacity first exceeded one million in 1992. By 2000, China was
producing over two million vehicles. After China's entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO) in
2001, the development of the automobile market further accelerated.

Between 2002 and 2007, China's national automobile market grew by an average 21 percent, or one
million vehicles year-on-year. In 2006, China’s vehicle production capacity successively exceeded six,
then seven million, and in 2007, China produced over eight million automobiles.

In 2008, 9.345 million motor vehicles were manufactured in China, surpassing United States as the
second largest automobile maker, after Japan.

In recent years, China's exports of automobiles and parts also show rapid growth trend in 2001 and
2007 average annual increase of nearly 50%, exports of automotive products in 2008 reached 30.2
billion U.S.

The dramatic rise of China’s automotive industry, in terms of both consumer demand and production
supply, is truly unprecedented in the history of the industrialized world. No country has risen from a
nearly standing start to the size and scale that China has achieved in such a compressed time frame.

According to the view of experts China’s Automobile Industry will going to cross U.S Industry by 2010
and will become the worlds largest auto maker, if it continues to grow at same pace.

4.0 Major Firms Contributing to Create that CSA:

The top five Chinese automotive manufacturers are:

• First Automobile Works (FAW)

• DongFeng Motor Corporation

• Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation

• Chang'an Motors

• Chery Automobile

These are the top five local companies, contributing to make Automobile Industry CSA of China.

4.1 FAW Group Corporation is a state-owned enterprise with a publicly-traded subsidiary, FAW Car
Company (SZSE: 000800). A maker of light, medium, and heavy-duty trucks, automobiles, municipal
and touring buses, custom bus chassis, mini-vehicles[1] and auto parts,[2] FAW became China's first
automobile manufacturer when it unveiled China's first domestically-produced car, the Hong Qi, in
1958.

Page 4 of 21
4.2 Dongfeng Motor Corporation is a Chinese automobile manufacturer, which ranks second
among the "Big Five" Chinese automakers. It manufactures and assembles buses, trucks, cars and
parts under its own name and in joint ventures with a variety of international automobile firms.

Dongfeng (which means "East Wind") was founded at the behest of Chairman Mao Zedong in 1968. As
part of his "Third Front" strategy, it was located in Hubei Province, far inland, to protect it from foreign
invasion. It has become the second-largest automobile manufacturer in China.

4.3 Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation is a Chinese automobile manufacturer which

ranks the third among the "Big Five" Chinese automakers.

4.4 Chang'an Automobile (Group) Co., Ltd is an automobile manufacturer in Chongqing, China. It
is also known as Chana. A subsidiary,Chongqing Changan Automobile Company Limited.

4.5 Chery Automobile is an automobile manufacturer in China.It is owned by the local government of
Wuhu, Anhui province but is scheduled to be privatized. It is the largest independent Chinese auto
manufacturer and one of the fastest growing automakers in the world.

There are also several foreign automobile manufactures in China, they are entering in the market by
forming Joint venture with local company, this is the restriction by Chinese government and it also plays
an important role in making China now the second largest automaker in the world.

The following 17 foreign makers have joint venture factories, with local partners, in China

Toyota Isuzu

Nissa Ford

Suzuki GM

Mazda PSA

Diahtsu VW

Mitsubishi Honda .
FIAT KIA

Daimler Chrysler BMW

Hyundai

Now among them all top manufacturers of China we choose DongFeng Motor Corporation as the
company to export it products internationally.

Page 5 of 21
5.0 DONGFENG Motor Corporation:
Founded in 1969, DongFeng Motor Corporation (hereafter referred to as DFM), formerly named Second
Automobile Works Co., is one of the 3 giant auto makers in China. Its main businesses include
passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, engine, auto parts & components, and equipment. Through
over 40 years of development, a set of R&D and manufacturing facilities have been established as well
as an extensive distribution and after-sales network, which unfolds a business display of footed in Hubei
while radiating the whole nation. The major business facilities are located in Shiyan, Xiangfan, Wuhan
and Guangzhou. In addition, several branches are placed in Shanghai, Liuzhou (Guangxi), Yancheng
(Guangxi), Nanchong (Sichuan), Zhengzhou (Henan), Urumchi (Xinjiang), Chaoyang (liangning),
Hangzhou (Zhejiang), Kunming (Yunnan), etc.

As of 2007, DFM has gained an annual output of 1,137,000 vehicles, a sales income of
￥164,800,000,000, 12.94% market shares and 121,000 registered employees. The company ranks
20th in TOP 500 of domestic enterprises and 5th in TOP 500 of domestic manufacturers respectively.
In 2007, the domestic market shares of medium/heavy duty commercial vehicle and medium duty bus
topped 1st; light duty commercial vehicle and SUV secured 2nd and car the 3rd.

5.1 FSA OF DONGFENG:

Now talking about the FSA or in simple words competitive advantage of DongFeng. Following are the
Major FSA of the DongFeng

Cost Effectiveness:

As already described earlier it is one of the largest automaker in Chain, and it is part of DongFeng
group which is one of the largest machinery manufacturing group in China so because of this
characteristic DongFeng motors are specialized in making auto parts and finally the vehicles and this
will help to achieve their competitive advantage in Cost Effectiveness, in terms of reducing cost per
unit. Because there is no need to higher any third party to help them in any of the process of Vehicle
manufacturing and because of this they are able to reduce their production cost per vehicle and finally
to provide at lower cost to end consumer.

So in that time of financial crisis this competitive advantage is helping them in order to gain excellent
business performance and high profits return.

Innovative Designs:
Page 6 of 21
Another competitive advantage of DongFeng is its innovative designs. For that purpose they are using
product development software Windchill PDMLink by Windchill Foundation. This software not only help
them to improve the designs but also help them in Manufacturing Process Management; Performance
Analysis and in data distribution efficiency.

6.0 Destination country:

South Korea, officially the Republic of Korea (ROK) and often simply referred to as Korea, is a country
in East Asia, located on the southern half of the Korean Peninsula. It is neighbored by China to the
west, Japan to the east, and North Korea to the north. Its capital is Seoul, the second largest
metropolitan city in the worldand a major global city. South Korea lies in a temperate climate region with
a predominantly mountainous terrain. Its territory covers a total area of 100,032 square kilometers and
has a population of over 48 million, making it the third most densely populated (significantly sized)
country in the world.

6.1 Economy:

South Korea is a presidential republic consisting of 16 administrative divisions and is a developed

country with a high standard of living. It has the fourth largest economy in Asia and the 15th largest in
the world. The economy is export-driven, with production focusing on electronics, automobiles, ships,
machinery, petrochemicals and robotics. South Korea is a member of the United Nations, WTO, OECD

and G-20 major economies. It is also a founding member of APEC and the East Asia Summit, and a
major non-NATO ally of the United States.

6.2 China and South Korea Relations:

Historically, Korea has had relatively close relations with China. Before the formation of South Korea,
Korean independence fighters worked with Chinese soldiers during the Japanese occupation. The PRC
assisted North Korea with manpower and supplies during the Korean War, and in its aftermath the
diplomatic relationship between South Korea and the PRC almost completely ceased. Relations thawed
gradually and South Korea and the PRC re-established formal diplomatic relations on August 24, 1992.
The two countries sought to improve bilateral relations and lifted the forty-year old trade embargo, and
South Korean-Chinese relations have improved steadily since 1992. The Republic of Korea broke off
official relations with the Republic of China upon gaining official relations with the People's Republic of
China. Today, China is South Korea's most important trading partner.

6.3 Korean Automobile Industry:

The Korean automobile industry is currently the fifth largest in the world in terms of production volume
and the sixth largest in terms of export volume. While its initial operations were merely the assembling
of parts imported from Japan and the United States, Korea is today among the most advanced
automobile-producing countries in the world. Annual domestic output exceeded one million units in
1988. In the 1990s, the industry manufactured numerous in-house models, demonstrating not only its
capabilities in terms of design, performance, and technology, but also signaling its coming of age.

6.4 South Korea auto industry in 2009

It had been forecast that in 2009 South Korea auto Industry would face tough times as sales are likely
to go down this drop would be worst since 2004.

Page 7 of 21
Sales of Automobile would go down by over 10 percent. It is estimated that in 2009 1.1 million cars
would be sold in South Korea car market.

6.5 Problems for South Korea automobile industry

A number of problems are plaguing South Korea auto industry. Rules and regulations in credit markets
of South Korea have been tightened. This has made it tough for consumers to get access to loans that
are needed to buy cars. To top it, this Asian country is experiencing economic slump. These factors
have brought down demand for cars and this, in turn, has affected both automobile industry of South
Korea and its real economic growth prospects in an adverse way.

Some major auto makers who are important parts of auto industry of South Korea have stopped their
operations on a temporary basis. They are doing this so that inventories of both car dealers and
warehouses across South Korea could be sold.

In last quarter of 2008 sales went down and this led a number of South Korean car companies to sack
majority of their employees. Many of these companies are also selling some of their branded products
with rebates so that they can regain their production costs and sell more cars. Since new cars are not
being made, consumers in South Korea have stopped buying as they assume that prices would go
down later. This would enable them to buy cars at lower prices later on.

As these are some of the problems that South Korean automobile industry is facing and these problems
are actually opportunity for DongFeng to enter and capture the market as the customers are asking for
the less costly vehicles and to provide the less costly vehicle is one of the FSA of the DongFeng.

Further we are actually going with Commercial vehicle category in South Korea, the reason behind this
is that because of financial crisis people are not able to buy cars and one very important reason is
Kyoto Protocol, an international environmental treaty with the goal of achieving “stabilization of
greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous
anthropogenic interference with the climate system”

Because of this South Korean government is promoting the public transport instead of cars so to reduce
the emission of greenhouse gases. Government is trying to revive confidence of consumers. Rates of
lending have been cut down as well with an aim of increasing consumer expenditure.

Now there is Figure 2 in appendix showing the demand of commercial vehicles among the overall
automobile demand.

7.0 Foreign Direct Investment: Seekers of Opportunity:

DongFeng chose the mode of entry the FDI in South Korea and in this further as the seekers of
Opportunity. Opportunities are Markets and Knowledge.

7.1 Seekers of Markets:

As there is continuous increase in the demand of low price and low emission commercial vehicles as
the above chart is also showing it so that’s why we are entering too capture the market.

7.2 Seekers of Knowledge:

As it is already mentioned South Korean Industry is one of the most advances automobile Industry of
the world using the most advance technology, although the China is one of the top manufactures of
automobile vehicles and DongFeng is the second major manufacturer but still there is very important

Page 8 of 21
opportunity for DongFeng to go there and get the knowledge of most advance technology and that
adopt the new technology to make there products more competitive in the world.

7.3 Wholly Owned Subsidiary:

Secondly we are following control focus strategy as it is mature market so the form of FDI we chooses
is wholly owned subsidiary of DongFeng that is DongFeng Motors Korea (DFMK), that is actually
assembling plant of DongFeng that will going to handle the exported parts of DongFeng and then
assemble them into Vehicle.

As from markets point of view there is potential of growing market and demand is there for Commercial
vehicles in the South Korean market as the above statistics shows that currently there is 24% demand
of CV in South Korea and demand is still growing.

Marketing Plan

8.0 Situation Analysis

DongFeng Motors Korea (DFMK) is a wholly owned subsidiary of DongFeng Motor Corporation, China
and is the second largest and the fastest growing car manufacturer in China. DFMK is the newly
established subsidiary of DFMC. DongFeng Motor Group’ has signed an agreement with DongFeng
Motor Korea (DFMK) to export automobiles in South Korea. DFMK will mainly sell four models in the
market – a commercial minivan, a one-ton truck, a six and a twelve passenger van from April 2010.

With increase awareness in consumers about potential hazards, automobile industries are in constant
competition with each other to produce a better vehicle for the right consumer. It is estimated that the
DongFeng industry will continue to prosper to increasing trends as national economies and population
increases. Mobility 2030, of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development, reported that per
capita mobility of china, Latin America, Russia and rest of Europe would double by 2030 to 5000-14000
km per year. This will contribute to the automotive industry a big deal.

Now before proceeding further it is important to mention an other thing that is as discussed earlier we
have established wholly owned subsidiary but in mean time among the top 5 automobile manufacturers
of South Korea, SsangYong Motor Company had been bankrupt in this running month so DongFeng as
the new entrant in the market decided that to takeover it make it position strengthen as it contains 2.7%
of the total market share in the South Korean Market. So this marketing plan and its strategies are
designed keeping this situation in view especially sales forecast.

Page 9 of 21
8.1 Market Summary:

Currently there is demand of 24% commercial vehicles in overall vehicle demand in South Korea and
there is potential of growth too. The Figure 3 in appendix is showing the demand of different types of
commercial vehicles in South Korea.

8.2 Market Need:

Now considering the entire current situation like financial crisis and Kyoto Protocol, there is demand of
commercial vehicles as governments are promoting the public transport and low emission producing
vehicles.

So currently there is demand of economical, fuel efficient and low emission vehicles that and meet
the current need of customer.

8.3 Market Trend:

As we are providing with the commercial vehicles of DongFeng in South Korean so it very important to
analyze the market trend of commercial vehicles in South Korean market.

There is increasing market trend in purchasing commercial vehicles one of the major factor contributing
in the increase of this market trend is government policies, as south Korean government is promoting
the public transport in order to reduce the carbon emission and thirdly countries economy depends
upon the exports that’s why for that purpose also more export agencies and private enterprise are
emerging.

8.4 Market Growth:

As it is already known that there is market trend towards buying commercial vehicles. But to analyze the
market growth it is necessary to know about the potential demand in this sector there is the (Figure 4)
showing the market growth in this sector.

8.5 PEST ANALYSIS:

We have used the acronym PEST to describe a framework for the analysis of macro- environmental
factors.

Political Factors:

The South Korean Government is aiming at placing its automotive manufacturing industry among the
world's top four by 2010. For this, the government has been creating a favorable environment by
forming automotive parts clusters and announcing tax holidays for companies operating in these zones.
It has also been promoting more environment-friendly vehicles to implement its climate change policy
successfully.

Page 10 of 21
Economical Factors:

In the time of that financial crisis the South Korean government, to support it automobile Industry
provided them with low-rate interest loans and tax subsidies.

Social Factors:

• Lifestyle and preferences of people that impact their choice of types of automobiles.
• Social norms that impact the decision to own and use automobiles versus other means of
transport.

In the case of South Korean market these are factors are in favor of commercial vehicles.

Technological Factors:

Capital investment in R&D tends to concentrate heavily on the improvement of hard technology,
including emission control, design simulations, fuel efficiency, and the development of alternative fuels,
while R&D spending for the improvement of management and production techniques tends to remain
relatively low. Recently, automakers founded the Korean Automotive Manufactures Association in order
to support R&D of soft technology, including labor-management relations

FSA.

Promotion:

Page 14 of 21
For promotion of our product we are using following mediums:

Television advertisements

Advertisements to promote and market our product will be shown on leading television channels. On
Major television channels we will promote are: MBN (Business and Economy Television), Woori

• The Stockiest will represent 3 to 4 districts in a State.

• The Dealer will represent a district or main City.

• The Sub-Dealer shall represent a particular area or taluka.

• The booking agents will be individuals working on freelance basis.

10.0 Financials:
In that part we have discussed about the financial part of the marketing plan and we just focused on
sales forecast.

10.1 Sales Forecast:

Before proceeding with sales forecast it is important to have overlooked over the domestic sales of
South Korean companies over the previous years, there is table showing the continuous decline in the
Page 15 of 21
sales of previous years but last year the sales drop was less then the expected. As it had been
forecasted that sales will going to decline by 10% but in real scenario the drop was just 4% so this is
showing some signs of 2006 531,547
recovery and secondly the
south Korean economy also
grew by 2.3% quarter on 2007 486,762
quarter.
2008 445,111

2009 427,307

Secondly as it is previously discussed that DongFeng Motor Corporation is going there to overtake the
Ssangyong motors so their share is 2.7% and forecasted growth in the coming years of 2010,2011 and
2012 is 3%,3% and 5% respectively so by keeping these assumptions in mind the forecasted sale is as
follows

2010 12,764 units

2011 13,147 units
2012 13,804 units

11.0 Controls:

The purpose of DongFeng’s marketing plan is to serve as a guide for the organization.

The following areas will be monitored to gauge performance:

• Revenue: monthly and annual.

• Expenses: monthly and annual.
• Customer satisfaction.

11.1 Contingency Planning

Page 16 of 21
Difficulties and risks:

• Problems generating visibility.

• Lower than forecasted demand.
• The entry of another competitor that recognizes the market potential.

Worst case risks may include:

• Determining that the business cannot support itself on an ongoing basis.

• Having to liquidate equipment to cover liabilities
