Chapter 599

Less than a month after the U.S. ban was issued, Germany was unable to hold on. They took the initiative to come forward and began to lobby the government to abolish the public company protection act. At the same time, the German Federal Supreme Court came forward to mediate the contradiction between foreign investors and the Saxony government. The power of the sales ban in the U.S. market is unbearable for any enterprise, and the public hopes to get a chance to be a new man in the U.S. market by relying on their own initiative.

Therefore, under the unanimous opposition of the United States and major Western European countries, the Volkswagen Corporation Protection Act, which has been promulgated for more than ten years, will finally be thrown into the dustbin of history. The biggest obstacle in front of investors has been cleared, and Kalim and Donia can finally work together to do what they want to do.

Gorky's various financial teams began to encroach on the shares of Volkswagen in the open market. Blackstone, Bank of Columbia and mediterranean shipping all bought the shares of Volkswagen Group through their financial platforms. As a result, some foreigners continued to appear on the board of directors of Volkswagen. However, up to now, the regulatory authorities of Frankfurt market only know that Blackstone and CBS have an equity relationship, but they are not clear about Mediterranean Shipping and their relationship. Now within the board of directors, the Saxony state government still ranks as the largest shareholder with a 30% stake, and Karim and CBS have taken 27%, DHEA holds 23% of the shares. Although controlling just over half of the company, Karim and Donia have gained the biggest say in the company. The battle for the equity of Volkswagen has come to an end for the time being. In the future, Gorky financial platform will choose the opportunity to increase its holdings. However, when the overall situation has been decided, this is no longer important.

Ever since receiving a letter from Sir Denis, he began to pay attention to the case of Mathias rooster. Under his secret operation, the case was transferred from the KGB and the Ministry of defense to the judiciary. This means that Matthias rooster will not be charged with espionage or other serious crimes against the security of the Soviet Union. Because the trials of these charges are generally not open to the public, and are conducted in secret in military courts.

After all, Xie liaosha studied in the law department of Leningrad University. He estimated that the prosecution in Moscow would sue Mathias Rooster for illegal cross-border and other charges. In view of his status as a minor, the judge should not reprimand him. In a word, this matter can be explained to Dennis. After communicating with Yakovlev, he sent a reply letter to Dennis through private channels. In the letter, he asked Sir Dennis to tell the German prime minister, Mr. Kohl, that the Soviet Union wanted to negotiate with the other party on the debt issue. When these two things are put on a letter, the information in it is self-evident.

Now, the bear boy of Matthias rooster is very famous all over the world. Since someone from the Soviet Union has thrown an olive branch, the German side will naturally go on. Otherwise, the Soviet Union will be enraged and let them kill the bear boy, and the Kohl cabinet will have to be ousted by the opposition. So the Federal Republic of Germany happily agreed to the demands of the Soviet Union.

So, taking the opportunity of Germany's invitation, and also to avoid domestic political disputes, he left Moscow for Bonn, the capital of the Federal Republic of Germany. When the Soviet foreign economic and trade delegation led by seryosha arrived in Bonn, Prime Minister Kohl personally went to the airport to welcome seryosha. After a brief exchange between the two, the delegation took a bus to the city hall of Bonn to attend the welcome activities there.

This is the first time that he has set foot on the land of the Federal Republic of Germany. He has set two goals for his visit. First, he hopes to convert the Soviet Union's foreign debt into an energy contract, so that the Soviet Union can use its rich mineral resources to repay the foreign debt slowly. Second, he wants to discuss the plan of establishing an automobile factory. At present, the Soviet Union has opened up some areas for private economy and foreign investment. Before that, only red capitalists like Hamer could do business in the Soviet Union. However, in Xie liaosha's view, the automobile factory is more important. Gaidar, the chief economist and President of the Bank of foreign trade, was in charge of the debt negotiations.

Therefore, according to the request of cheriesha, the federal government arranged a series of inspection activities for him, and the most developed automobile industry in the Federal Republic of Germany was the first to bear the brunt. Under the arrangement of the German side, Xie liaosha started his journey of German automobile industry. Xie liaosha visited the car manufacturing companies of high-end brands such as Porsche and Mercedes Benz to learn about their advanced experience in management and technology. At the same time, he also inspected the developed car rental and auto finance loan institutions in Germany. Xie liaosha plans to let foreign trade banks set foot in automobile and consumer loan business to promote the domestic consumer market in the Soviet Union.

During the visit to the Volkswagen factory, vice president Piech personally accompanied Xie liaosha to visit Audi's automobile production line. The reason for visiting Audi is that the brand is very close to the Volga of Gorky in market positioning. Both models are mainly aimed at the business market and are targeted at middle-income people. At the end of his visit, Xie liaosha asked the company's entourage, "would you like to cooperate with Gorky factory to set up a joint venture to produce our Volga and your Audi?"

As soon as Xie liaosha ate this, the executives of Volkswagen Company present did not know how to answer this question. For them, if they enter the Soviet market just like entering China, Volkswagen will certainly be happy to see its success. The Soviet Union not only has a vast territory and a large population, but also the purchasing power of the common people is generally higher than that of China. But this is the enterprise on both sides of the iron curtain! Is it really that easy to cooperate?

"Mr. Minister, of course, we are willing to cooperate with returned countries! But we don't know much about your country, and it seems that the time is not ripe. Maybe we can wait a few years to discuss this issue. " Volkswagen executives declined.

"Is there any difficulty? Secretary Gorbachev welcomes foreign companies to invest in the Soviet Union. If you really encounter any difficulties, you can directly find me and I will help you solve them! I know that you have to listen to the government about this matter. It's OK. I will discuss this matter with Prime Minister Kohl in person... "
