Chapter 975 1987, OUT!

It was so strong that it could be called a somewhat extreme approach, which made Chrysler's shareholders uncomfortable for a while.

We are all decent people to some extent, how can we not be so shameless?!

But even so, when faced with Carter's request, everyone looked at Iacocca, who looked ugly, and then looked at Carter, who seemed to have everything in mind.

Raised arms gradually appeared in the conference room.

The company's affairs can be said to be complicated or simple. Who can have trouble with money?!

The old Dodge 600 production line, as the model is discontinued, these things are destined to be mothballed. In the past, Iacocca could sell this thing for 17.6 million, and everyone was very happy. Now Carter is here.

Said, this thing is given away! But I can bring more profits to everyone in other places, you can do it!

Whether it's General Dynamics' M1 production OEM or clearing out M60 inventory, these are things that are difficult for them to do. If they don't agree to this condition, it's hard to say whether a young man like Carter will simply stop working.

Giving away the production line like this, after all, in terms of Chrysler's actual contribution, it is only a Chrysler 300C production line! What's more, this production line is not given away for free without conditions, right?!

The same strong style of play not only appeared at Chrysler's shareholders' meeting, but when faced with the power of the factory union, Carter also directly said: "Chrysler guarantees to give you the treatment you deserve. But if you want to stop working and just take the money,

At worst, I will move the factory to Georgia. If you are not convinced, you can give it a try!"

Faced with such a threat, the union representatives, who are also the really full-fledged group of people in the automobile union, naturally refuse to work.

Usually, when facing factories, their usual tactic is to organize workers to go on strike, hold demonstrations, and then create public opinion, linking up with multiple places to jointly exert pressure. But this time, they were surprised to find that this tried and tested method actually worked.

Not applicable anymore?!

Is there a Detroit factory strike?

OK!

Just in time to move things!

The aroused workers were shocked to see one large truck after another driving into the factory on the day of the strike. Then a group of people jumped out and started to dismantle the machines.

How the hell is this even possible?!

If all the production equipment is dismantled, does this factory still need their workers?!

Besides, the majority of the profits gained by the union have never ended up in their pockets, right?! Think of Carter's bold words: "If you dare to make trouble, I will move you!"

first day, second day

There is no need to wait until the third day. The workers can't sit still. If they sit down again, there may be no work left!

The United States, which has just experienced a stock market crash, has a stable economic fundamentals, but a slowdown in development and a reduction in economic activity are inevitable. At such a point in time, no one is willing to bear the cost of unemployment.

However, in the face of workers' repeated remarks that they were "just being deceived by others" and other demands for resumption of production, Chrysler had only one sentence: "Industrial upgrade, all workers have a holiday!"

Objectively speaking, this is not cheating.

After all the production lines of the Dodge 600 are dismantled and shipped to China, the Detroit factory will naturally need new production lines. It is said to be industrial upgrading, and there is no problem at all!

But after Carter deliberately blocked the circulation of this news, this move seemed to the workers to have completely given up on the Detroit factory.

At the same time, the organizers of the automobile union are now one of the top two. On the one hand, despite all the trouble, Carter is still "one of his own"?!

A bunch of people in the Georgia area are just going against each other in meetings every day. Even big guys like Woodcock are jumping out of their way to say they shouldn't go too far.

What’s even more amazing is that even the media, who usually enjoy watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously and just like to make trouble with these things, surprisingly showed no interest in reporting on this matter at this time.

In an election year, the newspapers can’t even report it. Who has the time to deal with such a trivial matter in Detroit?! Besides, when it comes to cooperation, Carter’s annual advertising fees and the revenue from the TED cooperation he leads are no better than what the Automobile Workers Union provides.

many?!

If the big guys from the Automobile Trade Union headquarters come forward, they may need to save face, but a few factory representatives can pull them down.

In just one week, the union issue was resolved. The so-called worker representatives who started the trouble were all fired!

After resolving the stubborn problem of the union forcefully but efficiently, some of the original criticisms of the Chrysler board of directors also disappeared!

Think about it, if you pay for a production line, but you can get rid of the union, it doesn’t seem like a loss~

Once the heart disease goes away, the efficiency will naturally increase.

After confirming the production line and packing the inventory, Carter, who was just waiting for shipment after Christmas, also ushered in the Christmas of 1987. What was different from the past was that this Christmas, Anna and Joey’s wedding also had to be held.

held.

After nearly ten years of love, the honest Joey gradually changed Carter's perception of him. There's nothing wrong with being honest, right?

"Anna, let me tell you something. I said back then that I would prepare a gift for you when you get married. Look at this, a company I registered in your name. Its foundation is the original General Dynamics

The data systems division of the company. It doesn’t make much money now, but it’s better because it’s stable.”

In the old house in Texas, Carter called Anna into his room alone, and then took out a stack of documents from the drawer.

"I thought you already gave it"

Faced with such a surprise, Anna's performance seemed very dull. Because she guessed that her younger brother would not be too stingy, even if the gift was a company.

"That doesn't count. It was our previous agreement, not the dowry prepared by our family! I will attend the wedding soon and have to go to Fort Benning to report. You won't be able to see me for at least half a year! Sign it quickly

Well, let’s get together later and talk about family stuff.”

"You made it sound like we could see you normally. Thank you!"

Having been out of society for so many years, Anna knows exactly what this company means.

The data systems division purchased from General Dynamics, a well-known defense contractor, may not be as profitable as its other divisions that build tanks and missiles.

However, the customer resources it possesses are beyond the reach of ordinary companies. Fields that GM’s traditional engineers cannot handle are perfect for Anna Joy, who has been deeply involved in the field of information technology over the years.

That’s all!

Even if it is not possible to innovate and create new glory, as long as it does not act too arrogantly, relying on its original customer resources, Xiaofu Ji'an's life is still sufficiently guaranteed.

Taking over this part of General Dynamics' "bad assets" was also the price Carter paid for helping Chrysler obtain the M1 tank production authorization. It's just that this price is a bit too sweet.

After making arrangements for the funeral and having a lively wedding in a small town, Carter packed up his bags.

1987, out!
