Another new force to build a car owes wages and stops production.
Recently, we received feedback from employees of Henan Suda Electric Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd., and the problem of employees’ unpaid wages has not been effectively solved. It is understood that Henan Suda Electric Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd. has been in a state of suspension of production since the second half of 2020 due to its poor management and COVID-19 epidemic. Employees who have not left their jobs can’t go to work normally, and they can only receive basic living expenses, and sometimes even basic living expenses can’t be paid. Such a new power enterprise, which was the first batch to obtain "double qualifications" and was concerned by the governor, is now struggling and facing the situation of bankruptcy.
According to the feedback from employees at present, 12,000 yuan was paid in 2021, and 4,000 yuan has been paid so far in 22 years, and no penny has been paid for leaving the company. Sanmenxia currently has a minimum living guarantee of 1,900 yuan a month, so there is no minimum guarantee, and social security has never been paid since 2021.
In fact, since the problem of unpaid wages of Suda was exposed in 2020, there have been complaints from employees, but the problem has not been effectively solved. As early as the end of 2021, the local government replied: the management committee of the Development Zone has conducted many interviews with Henan Suda Electric Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd. on the issue of unpaid wages and unpaid social security fees, urging enterprises to implement their responsibilities, take measures to resolve hidden dangers of unpaid wages in time, do a good job in ideological counseling for employees and helping employees in difficulty, and properly handle the problem of unpaid wages. At the same time, the Development Zone Management Committee actively takes measures to help enterprises coordinate and solve production and operation difficulties and promote enterprises to gradually realize standardized management. In October, 2021, the municipal government and the administrative committee of the development zone set up a leading group for Sanmenxia City to promote the related work of Henan Suda Electric Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd. and a special class for the development zone to promote Henan Suda Electric Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd. to resume work and production, and arranged special personnel to carry out investment attraction and joint venture for Suda problem in order to solve Suda series of problems as soon as possible. In the next step, the development zone will urge enterprises to promote strategic restructuring as soon as possible, and at the same time actively do a good job in explaining and appeasing employees, strive for their understanding and support, properly handle contradictions, tide over difficulties with enterprises, and maintain social stability.
At present, the complaint platform of People’s Daily Online has also collected a large number of complaints about the unpaid wages of Henan Suda Company.
Some employees complained that "Henan Suda electric car does not pay wages, does not pay social security, and employees cannot be reimbursed for hospitalization. Since January 2021, social security has been broken off, and employees can’t be reimbursed for hospitalization. I called 12345 for feedback. The answer was that I suggested to the Development Zone Human Resources and Social Security Bureau about the salary and social security of Henan Suda electric employees, but there was no substantial progress in many feedbacks! Begging the government to come forward to solve this matter,. "
As early as 2021, employees of Henan Suda Electric Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Suda Company) broke the news. The company originally stipulated to pay the salary of last month on the 25th of each month, but by the end of November, the salary for three months from August to October was not paid, and the company leaders have not given a positive reply or any statement so far. It is worth mentioning that some employees were also "paid" 20,000 yuan for car booking, which was originally scheduled to be returned before June 30, and has not been returned so far, and there is no statement or reply. Now the employees of the company begin to ask for salaries in a large area and in various ways. By the 24th of this month, employees had gone to the chairman of the trade union to ask for salary. The chairman generally meant: If there is no money, it’s up to you. Send all the employees away. As of press time, the salary is still going on.
Suda, a key supporting enterprise in Henan province and city.
As the "No.1 Project" of Sanmenxia City’s transformation and upgrading, Henan Suda has been highly valued and strongly supported by Henan Province and Sanmenxia City. "The municipal party committee and municipal government provide nanny-like service to Suda Company, escort like a guard, rescue in time when the enterprise encounters setbacks, and devote themselves to it." The main leaders of Sanmenxia municipal government once lamented. However, for a long time, Henan Suda has made little noise in the new energy automobile industry. The last time it attracted public attention, it got "double qualifications". In 2019, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology approved the qualification of Henan Suda to build a new pure electric passenger car manufacturer, which became the first car enterprise in Henan and the 11th in China to obtain "double qualification". However, Henan Suda, who holds the "double qualification" of building a car, is greeted with doubts one after another. Since its establishment in 2010, this enterprise has failed to independently produce a pure electric vehicle for more than five years, and has been accused of being "stiff but not dead", but it has been strongly supported by Sanmenxia City, Henan Province, where the enterprise is located.
According to public information, on February 10, 2011, the Implementation Opinions on the Development of Electric Vehicle Industry in Sanmenxia City (Provisional) stated that it is necessary to focus on cultivating Suda Technology to produce pure electric mini and mid-size cars, with an annual output of 100,000 vehicles by 2015. According to the plan, the Suda electric vehicle project has a total land area of 3,500 mu (826 mu in the first phase), with a total planned investment of 5 billion yuan, with an estimated annual output value of 35.6 billion yuan and a profit and tax of 7 billion yuan. After completion, a number of affiliated enterprises can be integrated to settle in, indirectly achieving an output value of more than 80 billion yuan, profits and taxes of more than 15 billion yuan, and attracting about 20,000 industrial workers. Obviously, this goal has not been achieved. According to authoritative media reports, in the case of shortage of land use indicators, the Sanmenxia municipal government gave priority to ensuring the land demand for the Suda electric vehicle project. The 705 mu of land required for the first phase of the project was approved by the provincial government in just 20 days; The approval procedures for environmental assessment, energy assessment and safety assessment of the project are all arranged by the government. In addition, Henan Suda also enjoys support policies in high-tech, environmental protection, new energy, energy conservation and comprehensive utilization. According to media reports, on March 13, 2020, Wang Guosheng, secretary of Henan Provincial Party Committee, went to Suda Company to investigate the situation of enterprise epidemic prevention and control, resumption of work and production, and scientific and technological innovation. Liu Nanchang, secretary of Sanmenxia Municipal Party Committee, accompanied the investigation.
During the investigation, Secretary Wang Guosheng spoke highly of Suda’s work in epidemic prevention and control, resumption of work and production, and scientific and technological innovation. Wang Guosheng said that Suda Company focused on the long-term and advanced layout, and while doing a good job in epidemic prevention and control, it promoted the resumption of production in a safe and orderly manner. It has many core technologies such as active control system, motor electronic control system and balanced discharge, which completely solved the safety problem of vehicles. At the same time,The sales of Suda pure electric cars at home and abroad have steadily advanced and achieved fruitful results..As the only pure electric passenger car enterprise in Henan Province, Suda Company will be strongly supported by the government and relevant departments.Therefore, I hope that in the future, Suda Company can accelerate its development, promote the development of related industries and make contributions to the economic development of Henan Province. Li Fuxing, the chairman of the company, said that in the future, Suda Company will take it as its responsibility to cultivate the industrial chain and supporting parts bases, push forward all the work of the company in a down-to-earth manner, and strive to build a 100 billion yuan industrial base for new energy vehicles.
A controversial enterprise
At present, there are only two products in official website of Henan Suda, namely the sedan SA01 and the small SUV SD01. After subsidy, the price is 130,000 yuan and 110,000 yuan. official website shows that the cruising range is 180-300 kilometers.
But there are only two products, and they are also accused of "sales fraud". In June 2020, there was media exposure, "Starting from Henan Suda: signing a fake sales contract with employees, a high-profile car company without a 4S shop."
According to the article, after visiting Sanmenxia City, the reporter found that even though every signing ceremony of Henan Suda was vigorous, there was no 4S shop in the local base camp, and the sales method was relatively hidden. Most citizens still knew little about Suda electric vehicles. Xiao Jing, an internal employee of Suda, told reporters that the company has been actively mobilizing employees to buy cars in order to "exchange" sales. If there is not enough money, it can even sign a contract with the company for "fake buying". The reporter found in the factory of Henan Suda that at present, only one phase of the factory has been built, and two more phases are under development planning. Only the sales exhibition hall is open to the public for the time being.
Although as the "No.1 Project" of Sanmenxia City’s transformation and upgrading, Henan Suda has been highly valued and strongly supported by Henan Province and Sanmenxia City. However, with the outbreak of the problem of unpaid wages in Henan Suda, more problems will be exposed. In the field of new energy vehicles, there are more and more such examples. Changjiang Automobile and Sailin Automobile are all falling down. Some insiders believe that the management ideas of government departments should be changed, and it is necessary to prevent enterprises from being tied too tightly to local governments. Once enterprises are stagnant, they will waste resources and funds, which will adversely affect the development of the industry.
