Recently, the anti-monopoly trend of many ministries and commissions continued to spurt: after the National Development and Reform Commission issued a high-priced ticket for more than 1 billion yuan to Sumitomo and other related parts companies last month, the Shanghai Municipal Price Bureau recently sold Chrysler (China) Ltd. and some of its Shanghai distributors Shanghai Yueyao, Shanghai Mingchuang, and Shanghai Xinjia Automobile Sales and Service Co., Ltd. respectively made a penalty decision; just yesterday, the National Development and Reform Commission anti-monopoly bureau announced the latest report to FAW-Volkswagen The sales company and some Audi dealers in Hubei have a penalty of 100 million yuan. At the press conference held yesterday by the State Council, Xu Kunlin, director of the Price Supervision, Inspection and Anti-Monopoly Bureau of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the fundamental purpose of anti-monopoly is to protect fair competition in the market, rather than to protect national enterprises. There is no such thing as "selectivity." law enforcement". Analysts said that with the deepening of anti-monopoly investigations, the auto and parts and software industries with the most serious monopoly problems will usher in a change, and in the medium term, they will provide a rare development opportunity for local manufacturers in these two fields.
Cars: Anti-monopoly storms or industry changes. The so-called anti-monopoly investigation is only to hear thunder and no rain. However, in the last two or three months, anti-monopoly investigations have caused a whirlwind, auto and parts industry. Frequently issued a high price ticket.
It should be said that at the beginning of July, the Ministry of Commerce decided to establish a Sino-foreign joint venture Kelimei for five companies, namely Keliyuan, Toyota China, PEVE (Toyota holding 80.5%), Xinzhongyuan and Toyota Tsusho, according to the Anti-Monopoly Law. The approval of additional restrictive conditions is only the beginning of this round of anti-monopoly.
At the end of August, the work of the National Development and Reform Commission website showed that the National Development and Reform Commission had imposed a penalty of 8.3196 billion yuan on the price monopoly of eight parts and components enterprises such as Sumitomo, and imposed a penalty of 403.44 million yuan on the price monopoly of four bearing companies such as Seiko. The total fine was 1,235.4 million yuan.
At a time when the market was in ruins, anti-monopoly investigations made new progress with lightning speed. Recently, the Shanghai Municipal Price Bureau made a penalty decision on the price monopoly of Chrysler (China) Automobile Sales Co., Ltd. and some of its Shanghai distributors Shanghai Yueyao, Shanghai Mingchuang and Shanghai Xinjia Automobile Sales and Service Co., Ltd. Chrysler Corporation fined 31.68 million yuan and fined 3,214,100 yuan to three dealers.
Just yesterday, the National Development and Reform Commission imposed a fine of 2.4858 billion yuan on FAW-Volkswagen Sales Co., Ltd.; and a total of 29.96 million yuan on 8 Audi dealers such as Hubei Dingjie and Hubei Zhongji. The Anti-Monopoly Bureau of the National Development and Reform Commission pointed out that FAW-Volkswagen Sales Co., Ltd. organized 10 Audi dealers in Hubei Province to reach and implement a monopoly agreement on vehicle sales and service repair prices. The purpose is to control the resale of dealers to third parties. Car sales and after-sales maintenance prices, deprived and interfered with the pricing power of downstream operators, raised the sales price of complete vehicles and spare parts, excluded and restricted the normal competition order of the vehicle and spare parts market, and damaged consumer rights.
According to industry insiders, the auto industry will present a new situation after the vertical monopoly of auto dealers on dealers and the horizontal monopoly of auto companies and dealer companies. That is to say, the position difference between auto companies and dealers can be greatly reduced. Auto companies can no longer set strict business policies to dealers. Pricing on models and after-sales services is gradually opening up. The auto trading market and after-sales market are gradually entering a free competition. After the horizontal monopoly is broken, the price gap generated by the free pricing between the same brand dealers also makes the consumer groups have wider choice and comparative space.
Oriental Securities released a research report that the automobile anti-monopoly storm is expected to gradually change the industrial chain business model of the after-sales market. The distribution channels for after-sales parts are expected to expand, and the model is expected to gradually integrate with the international market. Therefore, domestic auto parts manufacturers are expected to benefit. Haitong Securities also released a research report recently. As the anti-monopoly in the field of automobile circulation continues to deepen, the country is expected to further revise the "Implementation Measures for Automobile Brand Sales Management" in the future, thereby breaking the monopoly pattern in the field of automobile circulation and improving the efficiency of market operation. With the optimization of market resources, domestic large-scale dealers will be expected to benefit.
Software: Anti-monopoly investigation or driving industry localization Recently, some media reported that the State Administration for Industry and Commerce is conducting an anti-monopoly investigation against Microsoft; Microsoft subsequently issued a statement saying that it will actively cooperate with government departments to investigate. This is after another Qualcomm, another US company was investigated in China, both of which were suspected of violating the Anti-Monopoly Law.
As the world's largest provider of computer software, Microsoft's operating system and office software are far ahead in all major markets. It is also because of the high market share, Microsoft has not been able to get rid of the anti-monopoly investigations of various countries.
On July 29, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce issued a notice confirming that according to the provisions of the Anti-Monopoly Law, the SAIC Special Task Force on the four business sites of Microsoft Corporation in China, namely Microsoft (China) Co., Ltd. and Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu The branch also conducts anti-monopoly raids at the same time.
According to the report, in June 2013, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce reported that Microsoft’s company had not fully disclosed the compatibility issues, tying, and file verification of its Windows operating system and Office software related information. The situation of China’s Anti-Monopoly Law was verified.
The State Administration for Industry and Commerce believes that after preliminary verification, it cannot eliminate the suspicion that Microsoft's behavior is anti-competitive. According to the law, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce has filed an investigation into Microsoft’s alleged monopolistic conduct.
Some insiders analyzed that if Microsoft is deemed to have abused market dominance, Microsoft may face huge fines under the Anti-Monopoly Law.
As is known to all, Article 47 of the Anti-Monopoly Law stipulates: "If an operator violates the provisions of this Law and abuses the dominant position of the market, the anti-monopoly law enforcement agency shall order it to stop the illegal act, confiscate the illegal income, and charge the annual sales amount. A fine of more than one ten percent. "According to this, Microsoft's revenue in the Chinese market in 2013 was about $ 6.57 billion, so Microsoft may face a fine of up to 600 million US dollars.
Analysts generally said that regardless of the results of Microsoft's investigation, it will bring an opportunity to domestic software. The development of anti-monopoly investigation will encourage domestic enterprises to become bigger and stronger, and domestic software development enterprises are expected to benefit.
