Feb. 18, 2009 (China Knowledge) - Sichuan Auto Industry Group Co, a small carmaker in southwest China, said the company has no plan to buy General Motor (GM)'s Hummer unit, the Reuters reported yesterday, citing a senior executive from the company as saying.

Earlier media reports said that Sichuan Auto is in talks with GM about the possible acquisition of its sport-utility vehicle unit Hummer for US$500 million. People familiar with the matter also said the company may obtain financial aid from state-owned banks.

In response, the company executive said Sichuan Auto never held talks with GM, or had interests in buying its Hummer unit, denying the rumor.

GM, whose car sales tumbled 60% in January, is bidding for the U.S. government's US$13.4 billion capital injection. The automaker has been seeking buyers for its Hummer SUV line, the Swedish brand Saab and a truck business in Michigan.

Set up in 1994, Sichuan Auto is based in Chengdu, the capital city of southwest Sichuan Province. The company has about RMB 1 billion in assets, with an annual production capacity of 30,000 passenger cars and 5,000 buses, according to the company profile on its website.

Key Information Introduction Hubei lies in central China, spanning two major river systems - the Yangtze River and its largest tributary, Hanjiang River. The world’s largest hydropower station, the Three Gorges Hydroelectric Power Station, is situated in this province. Hubei derived its name (which means “north of lake”) from its location as it is situated to the north of Dongting Lake. About 10% of the province consists of lakes, lending it the nickname “province of a thousand lakes”. Hubei adjoins Henan to the north, Anhui to the east, Jiangxi to the southeast, Hunan to the south, Chongqing Municipality to the west and Shaanxi to the northwest. The province is a central zone in China as it connects the south with the north and the east with the west. Wuhan is the capital of this province. Hubei is very rich in history. It was once the capital for the Chu Kingdom during the Warring States Period (475-221BC). It also played an important strategic role in the Three Kingdoms Period (AD190-280). As one of the key places where ethnic Chinese originated, about 60.5 million people live in this province today. They include many minority ethnic groups such as the Miao, Tujia, Dong, Hui and Mongolians. Due to its geographic location, it enjoys favorable environmental conditions and diversified natural resources suitable for the plantation of different crops. It is a main production base for grain, cotton and oil crops, and as such, Hubei has long been known as “the land of rice and fish” in China. Together with some cities in Hunan, the Wuhan City ring, covering 100 kilometers around Wuhan, won the State Development and Reform Commission’s approval to become the trial zone for the state’s construction of a resource conservation and environmentally friendly society on Dec 14, 2007. The circuit area, covering nearly one third of the territorial area and more than half of the population in Hubei, will serve as the strategic base for the resurgence of the central region in China, which indicates the central government’s determination to boost the development of this area.Economic Overview Hubei witnessed rapid economic development since the opening up of the Yangtze Economic Belt and the construction of the Three Gorges Dam project. The soaring investment, consumption and exports have pushed the regional economy to grow at an average growth rate of over 10.5% during the 2000 to 2006 period. In 2006, its GDP reached RMB758.1 billion, up 13.2% over the previous year. Figure 11.3.1 shows the GDP breakdown by sectors. Industry and service lead Hubei’s economy, contributing more than 40%. Agriculture also remains a moderately significant contributor to the economy with 15.0% of the GDP.In 2006, Hubei’s total investment in fixed assets rose 24.92% year-on-year to RMB334.4 billion. As a manufacturing hub in central China, Hubei injected RMB89.6 billion into its manufacturing sector, up 20.3% from 2005. Other substantial investments in fixed assets were made in the following industries as well: real estate (RMB 69.2 billion), logistics (RMB 44.3 billion) and wholesale and retail (RMB 9.0 billion). Figure 11.3.2 shows the breakdown of fixed assets in 2006 by the respective sectors.Agriculture Hubei’s Jianghan Plain is one of the main agriculture and aquaculture production bases in China. Grain, cotton and oil-bearing crops, in particular, flourish in this area. Hubei produced about 22.1 million tons of grains and 449,000 tons o乳化机搅拌机上海注册公司通风柜terarmt ビジネスローン競馬新聞报警器

By Liu Chang

In the first six months in 2009, diamond sales reached $300 million, putting China along with the US and Japan to become the three biggest diamond consuming countries.

The global economic crisis has resulted in a world-wide slow-down of diamond sales. From January to May, the diamond export and import volumes in the US and Japan have dropped by 49 percent and 24 percent respectively. China is the only country that has witnessed a growth in diamond consumption. Sales of the prized gem have increased 12.7 percent compared with the same period in 2008.

According to Liu Jianhua, an official from the Diamond Department of the Gems and Jewelry Trade Association of China (GAC), the annual diamond consumption in China has exceeded 25 billion yuan, and the figure is growing exponentially. Experts predict the diamond market in China is going to catch up with that of the US, and China is poised to become the next biggest diamond consuming country.

Wang Fei, researcher at the Cheungkei Research Center for Luxury Goods and Services (SITE) in the University of International Business and Economics, said that the rapid growth of diamond market is due to both supply and demand.

Diamonds, once a luxury rarely owned by a Chinese family, has now become a must for Chinese newlyweds. According to Wang, the largest population of diamond buyers is newlywed couples born in the 1970s and 1980s.

They are heavily influenced by western culture, where diamonds are seen as a token for love and loyalty. The second-largest customers are couples born in the 1960s who are financially more capable of affording a diamond than they were 20 years ago. The last group to buy diamonds are those who see the investment value in diamonds, which becomes clear in the economic downturn where currencies are depreciating faster than ever.

Although a rapidly growing market, Liu of GAC points out that the current diamond market is not a mature one, saying diamond consumption in China is still for sensational reasons. A true mature diamond market should be one driven by the diamond’s investment values, Liu said.

Liu also mentioned that there’s no leading brand in the Chinese diamond market which has nationwide recognition. Diamond enterprises are still limited to local markets. Brands such as Boee Jewelry and Diamond Charm, which are originally based in Shenzhen, are popular among the southern provinces in China, while Northern Chinese prefer brands like Caibai Jewelry, which is primarily based in Beijing.

Information about diamonds are not only limited to brands, Wang says. Diamond buyers are also said to be ignorant of the pricing system for diamonds, as well as the basic diamond evaluation standards, such as the 4 C standards (cut, color, carat and clarity). Wang believes the Chinese market is still a low-end market, where the customers have limited purchasing power.
