Chapter 824

Henry Ford II seemed to understand what Mike Donald meant. He wanted black cloud to take back all the jeeps in active service. Most American military jeeps were produced during the Vietnam War and have been seriously aged. Is baozixuan so stupid!

Besides, the US Army is the largest army in the world, and it pays great attention to logistics supply. Military transport vehicles are absolutely the largest in the world, even the Soviet army can not be compared with it.

Before heiyun did not acquire the Jeep brand, most U.S. military vehicles were jeeps. This is also one of the reasons why Chrysler can become one of the three major automobile manufacturers in the United States. The main sales volume is military procurement.

Now Chrysler has sold the Jeep brand to heiyun, although it has retained the military vehicle production line. However, Chrysler's design has been completely backward, and the designed products can not meet the strategic needs of the modernization of the U.S. military.

It was during this period in the previous life that GM's Hummer brand took advantage of the opportunity to become an automobile supplier to the U.S. military.

Because of the strong lifting of black cloud cars, American auto manufacturers are much more sad than in previous lives. Including GM and Ford, the situation of other manufacturers can be imagined.

Henry Ford II said very seriously, "President Mike means to let heiyun buy back the used cars of the U.S. military and make room for us."

"Even if Bao Zixuan is rich, he can't do such a thing. What's the use of buying so many cars back. And it is impossible for the military to place orders for heiyun cars. Heiyun should not be so obedient. "

In fact, no one would agree to buy back the products sold. Moreover, these products have been used for many years, and the main damage is still very serious.

Mike Donald smiled and said, "we can't look at baozixuan with ordinary people's eyes. He's not a person who plays cards according to common sense."

"So many cars may be a burden in the hands of normal people. But where he is, maybe he can get back a lot of money. "

"Although cars are outdated products in the U.S. military, they are definitely good items in other countries. For example, in the Middle East and China, these places can be used as sales places. "

Hearing that he could sell, Henry Ford II knew Mike Donald's real intention. At present, this business can only be done by heiyun automobile, because the Jeep brand is in their hands.

But it is impossible for China or the Middle East to need so many vehicles. This is a problem for heiyun group and baozixuan, and it also needs to occupy the production line.

According to statistics, the US military has more than 300000 transport vehicles of various models. China's economy is backward, and people in the Middle East are very picky. Even if the sales are only a part at most, it is still a small part. Most vehicles have to be smashed into their hands or sold for scrap disposal.

The retired vehicles of the U.S. military are not new cars. They must be repaired after repurchase. It is bound to occupy the production line. The production capacity of heiyun automobile is very tight. If hundreds of thousands of cars occupy the production line, do other products have to continue production? These are troublesome things.

If Bao Zixuan agrees to buy back retired US military vehicles; It is estimated that in the next six months, or even a year, don't think about increasing the output of black cloud cars. This is their real purpose. After all, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Henry Ford II: "President Mike's intention is to persuade the military to replace vehicles. This is relatively simple. After all, this is good for everyone, and the use of the most advanced combat tools is also a guarantee for the safety of soldiers. "

"It's not difficult to persuade the military to sell retired military vehicles to heiyun. It can be operated in a dark box and benefit."

"The key is how to convince heiyun group and baozixuan, which is the most critical issue. If baozixuan doesn't agree, we are all Utopian here. In that case, even if the military vehicles are replaced, it will be a part at most, and the number will not be too large. "

In fact, Mike Donald has no bottom in his heart. Just now he talked about China and the Middle East. He just wanted to cheer up Ford II and reassure the old man.

If you ask this question now, you must face and solve it.

Mike Donald: "baozixuan bought so many machine tools, tanks and armored vehicles in the Soviet Union. Now the U.S. military has difficulties. Don't you want to help. This is contempt for the United States. Do you think the military will make him feel better? "

Hearing this, Ford II felt that there was some truth. Baozixuan was not only a super genius and successful businessman. He also has a nickname, the rag king. He has bought a lot of rags from the Soviet Union these years.

But the boy is also capable. After repairing, he sold them all. Perhaps, as Mike Donald said, baozixuan should agree to buy back retired vehicles.

Mike Donald added: "in addition, GM and Ford can also put pressure if black cloud agrees to sell the Jeep brand and production line. Our two companies are willing to buy back retired military vehicles on the condition that the Jeep brand and production line belong to us. "

This is yangmou. Jeep is now a very profitable brand of heiyun automobile. The market share is gradually rising. How can it be sold at this time.

Most of the retired military vehicles are jeeps. GM and Ford can't repair them even if they want to buy back. Because it involves patent issues, it can only be handed over to Jeep at present.

Ford II was very satisfied. It seems that Mike Donald is really a talent. His age is not young, and no one in his family has the ability to serve as chairman. Is it right to find a suitable opportunity to dig this boy over.

Henry Ford II smiled and said, "President Mike has a good point. Just do as you say."

"Ford never takes advantage of anyone. When it's done, we'll be half of each other. I know that GM has done a lot of preparatory work in the early stage, and Ford can make compensation in terms of funds. "

Mike Donald is a little unhappy. After all, Ford doesn't account for half of the share in any way.

At present, the enterprise scale of GM is about 1.3 times that of Ford. Moreover, the research and development of new military vehicles is about to be completed in general. And the military is very satisfied with its performance and handling.

Now Ford will take half of the share. Isn't it a bargain! There are so many good things in the world that GM must dominate.

Mike Donald: "Mr. Ford's proposal is very good, but GM has almost finished everything now. At this time, half of the company is difficult to explain to the board of directors. If Ford is abandoned, GM also has a great opportunity. But without GM, Ford doesn't seem to have a good choice. "

Ford II seemed to have known that the other party would refuse, smiled and said, "Ford does not have no other choice, but disdains choice. President Mike should also leave a way for himself. It's best not to do too much. "

"You can't work in GM all your life. It's estimated that the board of directors doesn't trust you as much as before. Ford has a longer history, and in terms of technical strength alone, GM can't compare with Ford in many fields. Ford is just inferior to GM in marketing and capital operation. "

What does this old guy mean? Is he trying to dig himself in. It's not impossible, otherwise I wouldn't talk like that.

Mike Donald: "thank you for your love, but I can't affect the cooperation between enterprises because of my friendship with Mr. Ford."

Who will believe such things without spectrum and any interest guarantee, and win benefits by selling the interests of the enterprise; This kind of behavior against professional ethics is not desirable. The most important thing is in front of the boss of another company.

If he did, Ford II would surely think that GM could be sold for profit today; Can you sell Ford for profit tomorrow.

Henry Ford II knew that Mike Donald would not make mistakes easily. If a little kindness could make him change his principles, he would not be the CEO of general motors, and the board of directors of General Motors was not so stupid.

Finally, the two people had a preliminary discussion and reached an agreement that GM accounted for 55% of the total share; Ford accounted for 35%; The remaining 10% is left to other enterprises, and military orders are not so easy to eat alone.

Now that we have reached a consensus, we can follow the established plan.

This requires Mike Donald to be responsible. Ford II can show his face at the critical moment. In any case, the government and the military should know that the Ford family is also involved.

Bao, the richest man in Japan, doesn't know yet; A crisis, of course, may be an opportunity waiting for him. This once again disrupted the overall planning of heiyun group. But there are some problems; Before reaching a certain strength, it is difficult to refuse!
