BMW to take control of China venture Brilliance Automotive
Brilliance Automotive: the complete loser
Carmaking giant BMW wants to take control of its joint venture in China and is set to pump billions more into its production capacity in the country.
The German firm will spend €3.6bn ($4.16bn; £3.14bn) to up its stake in Brilliance Automotive from 50% to 75%.
The Mini maker will also invest more than €3bn to expand its existing production capacity in China.
The move comes amid China’s plans to relax rules for foreign car companies operating in its enormous market.
Currently, foreign firms that want to make cars in China must have a joint venture with a local firm, but they are not permitted to own more than a 50% stake in that firm.
This rule has been in place since 1994 and has left many foreign firms frustrated. It has also restricted big global brands from gaining full access to the world’s biggest car market.
宝马75%控股华晨宝马华晨彻底沦为代工厂，败光人品还能重生吗？
宝马以36亿欧元的代价，将宝马在华晨宝马的股份从50%提升到75%，成为合资汽车股比开放现实操作第一案，宝马成为华晨宝马绝对的控制方，华晨汽车只能成为宝马在中国的代工厂，而且随着长城宝马的成立，这种代工地位也显得越来越不牢固。
2002年，仰融被辽宁省检察院以涉嫌经济犯罪逮捕，要知道在那个商业规则的蛮荒时代，任何一个企业家都可以这种罪由被批捕，之后的各种纠葛就不多说了，仰融出走华晨，注意，2003年，华晨宝马成立，这个合资品牌是仰融离开华晨之后，唯一没有被砍掉的所谓仰融“痕迹”。也是从那时候开始，华晨汽车开始从一个自主一线品牌，逐渐滑落，到了如今，已经成为一个名副其实的鱼腩品牌。
在过去的两年间，华晨汽车的动作不可谓不多，1元低价出售金杯的股份给雷诺，中华V6、V7先后上市，先后折戟，2017年亏损8个亿。可以看得出来，在败光了所有人品之后，华晨汽车正在承受所有应该承受的“报应”，这种报应就是多年来不作为，以及商业信用缺失的综合结果，所以现在再来看华晨汽车在这次股权变动中的弱势地位，可以说所有的安排都是刚刚好。
逼走仰融那一刻就埋下了伏笔，金杯就此衰落，华晨被边缘化。中国汽车行业的几次大机遇华晨都没有把握住，关键还是掌门人眼光和能力不行。
At the moment of forcing Yang Rong, the foreshadowing was buried, the gold cup fell, and the morning was marginalized. China’s auto industry’s several major opportunities are not grasped by Brilliance. The key is still the vision and ability of the head.
