The epidemic affected production and waited for the orderly resumption of work. Since March, the epidemic situation in Jilin, Shanghai and Guangdong has been complex, resulting in the shutdown or reduction of production of many local vehicle factories and parts suppliers, with a great impact on the supply chain. The automobile industry chain is complex and involves a wide range. The shutdown in key areas extends to the overall industry chain. The limited supply and high-cost and low-efficiency logistics also have a certain impact on the automobile enterprises in non strict prevention and control areas, and the insurance data are poor. Positive factors: the progress of epidemic control in Jilin is good. FAW started to resume work on April 11. At the same time, the first batch of 47 parts enterprises are returning to work in an orderly manner. Shanghai released the epidemic prevention and control index for resumption of work and production, waiting for the orderly resumption of work in the next step.
