Recently, the State Administration of market supervision imposed a fine of 2.5 million yuan on three automobile chip distribution enterprises, Shanghai Qite Electronics Co., Ltd., Shanghai Chengsheng Industrial Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Yuchang Technology Co., Ltd., for bid up the price of automobile chips. Next, the State Administration of market supervision will continue to pay close attention to the price order in the chip field, strengthen price monitoring, severely crack down on illegal acts such as hoarding and driving up prices, and maintain good market order < p > auto chip case a reporter asked < / P > < p > question 1: please introduce the background of administrative punishment in the three cases < p > at present, China is in a period of rapid economic recovery after the impact of the epidemic, and China's economic recovery is not balanced, especially the vitality of small, medium and micro enterprises has not been fully recovered, so a stable and orderly market environment is needed < p > in the first half of this year, the supply of automotive chips was seriously insufficient due to the superposition of events such as the overall underemployment of the global semiconductor industry, the Japanese earthquake and the blizzard in Texas. China's domestic epidemic has been effectively controlled, the production capacity of new energy vehicles has expanded, and the demand for chips has increased significantly. In addition, 5g technology has developed rapidly, and the demand for chips in the electronic field has increased rapidly, which has occupied the production capacity of some automotive chips, resulting in the imbalance between supply and demand of domestic automotive chips. Automobile chip is an important component of automobile manufacturing industry. An ordinary car needs more than 200 chips, and a new energy vehicle needs at least 500 chips. The shortage of auto chips led to a significant decline in China's auto production and sales. In June, China's passenger car production and sales completed 1.555 million and 1.569 million respectively, down 3.8% and 4.7% month on month respectively < p > at the same time, some illegal vendors and hot money groups in China maliciously rush to buy chips, hoard strange things and bid up prices, resulting in the continuous rise of the prices of some auto chips, some 3-10 times and some 30-40 times, seriously affecting the orderly production and healthy development of China's auto industry. The State Administration of market supervision attaches great importance to this. On the one hand, it strengthens price monitoring and organizes industry research to understand the supply, demand and price of automobile chips. On the other hand, we will strengthen the handling of illegal clues and severely crack down on the illegal acts of individual distribution enterprises driving up prices. In August this year, the State Administration of market supervision sent an investigation team to investigate the suspected price bid-up of some automobile chip distribution enterprises according to law according to price monitoring and clues < p > question 2: please introduce the basic information of the investigation of these three cases < p > in view of the sharp rise in the price of some auto chips, in August this year, the State Administration of market supervision set up a task force to strengthen price monitoring and comprehensively figure out clues. According to the survey, since the beginning of this year, the price of chips sold by automobile chip manufacturers and authorized agents has increased by 10% - 15%, and the price of individual chips has increased by 50%. Individual distribution enterprises took the opportunity to maliciously rush to buy short chips, increase prices sharply, bid up prices and make high profits. After mastering the specific clues, the State Administration of market supervision immediately transferred capable forces and established two special investigation teams to investigate automobile chip distribution enterprises in Shanghai and Shenzhen < p > according to the investigation, three distribution enterprises, Shanghai qiete, Shanghai Chengsheng and Shenzhen Yuchang, significantly increased the price to sell some auto chips. For example, chips with a purchase price of less than 10 yuan were sold at a high price of more than 400 yuan, up 40 times. Under the condition of balanced supply and demand, the price increase rate of automobile chip traders is generally 7% - 10%. The above-mentioned enterprise acts violate the provisions of Article 14 of the price law of the people's Republic of China that "business operators shall not engage in the following unfair price acts: (3) fabricating and disseminating price increase information, bid up prices and promote excessive rise of commodity prices", which constitutes a violation within the meaning of item (3) of paragraph 1, Article 6 of the provisions on administrative penalties for price violations "Using other means to drive up prices and promote the rapid and excessive rise of commodity prices" Illegal price behavior. < / P > < p > on September 7, the State Administration of market supervision imposed an administrative penalty on the three distribution enterprises for driving up the price of automobile chips, with a fine of 2.5 million yuan. < / P > < p > question 3: Recently, the society has paid high attention to the rise of commodity prices. Under what circumstances will the operator's price increase be recognized as driving up prices? < / P > < p > since this year, China's great Commodity prices have continued to rise sharply, and the prices of some varieties have reached new highs, which has a great impact on downstream enterprises, especially small, medium-sized and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households. Individual illegal vendors and hot money groups have maliciously snapped up, hoarded strange things and bid up prices, which has seriously disrupted the market order and is not conducive to the recovery and development of China's economy. The market supervision department will deal with it seriously. < / P > < p > in research and implementation During the inspection of the law, it was found that some enterprises have the wrong idea that independent pricing is equivalent to arbitrary pricing. For commodities subject to market price adjustment, operators set prices according to production and operation costs and market supply and demand, but they should not only emphasize market supply and demand without considering production and operation costs. Enterprises should follow the pricing principles of fairness, legality, honesty and credibility and set reasonable prices. At the same time, The price behavior of operators, i.e. pricing strategy, price marking and price means used, are supervised by the market supervision department. < / P > < p > bid up prices often occur in a specific period, that is, it is possible to occur only under certain objective conditions. At present, in terms of daily necessities such as food and clothing, the relationship between market supply and demand is mainly characterized by oversupply, showing a tendency of buying The consumption characteristics of the local market. Under this background, the operator's bid up of prices does not have objective conditions. However, under specific conditions such as natural disasters, public health emergencies and sudden fluctuations in supply and demand in the international market, which lead to changes in supply and demand in the domestic market, resulting in national or local short supply. < / P > < p > in this case, the three distribution enterprises This is to take advantage of the imbalance between supply and demand of China's auto chips and sell auto chips at a substantial price increase under the condition that the purchase price is basically stable. Downstream auto parts enterprises face the risk of compensation for breach of contract due to the lack of chips available, so they have to accept the high quotation of the parties. This substantial price increase by distribution enterprises can not increase the product supply and alleviate the contradiction between supply and demand, but create new products Nervousness has led to panic preparation of spare parts manufacturers, automobile enterprises and other links, further exacerbated the imbalance between supply and demand, pushed prices up too fast and too high, and disrupted the market price order. < / P > < p > < / P > < p > related reading: < / P > < P > the shortage of chips continues to impact the automobile industry < / P > < p > < / P > < p > source: & nbsp; CNR < / P > < p > the tight global chip supply continues to impact the automobile manufacturing industry It is shown that the shortage of chips has dragged down the production capacity of major carmakers to about 50% in the same period in August ?
