Chapter 208 Let GM be our monthly ticket for the foundry]

Wang Jiao listened to Jin Xiaoqiang's opinions very seriously and wrote them down one by one.

"The origin of the second factory must be in China, especially the important engine manufacturing unit, which must be within our control. I believe this can be done easily. Firstly, the production cost of our production in China is cheap.

Secondly, I am here to take charge, haha, I believe they will not be too difficult for us on this point, and the core technology of this new car series is originally provided by us. The third point, and the most critical point, is this

If a joint venture can be negotiated this time, our holding of Huayang Power must account for 50% of the new brand, or even more. We must not allow the foreign devils to have absolute say. Otherwise, we would rather not

Cooperate with them, you know! This is very important."

Jin Xiaoqiang specifically emphasized to Wang Jiao.

He was really worried about handing over the absolute say of the brand to these foreign devils. If everyone discussed it, it would be easy to handle. If the foreign devils could help with the operation, then it would be easy too. But if this company lets these foreign devils

If you have the absolute right to speak, there will definitely be no good results.

A few years later, the tragic ending of the merger between Lenovo and IBM is still vivid in my mind, and then there is the unsuccessful case of Volvo.

Jin Xiaoqiang clearly sees the shortcomings of such a company that combines local and foreign companies, that is, these foreign devils must not be allowed to have absolute say.

After Lenovo acquired IBM's ThinkPad, it hired a foreigner to carefully build the brand. What was the result? It turned this originally high-end international brand into a Chinese famous brand, and it turned out to be Apple's iPad.

What will happen after LiJi acquires Volvo?

What kind of bullshit is it that you can't operate on the company's leadership or supervise Volvo's operations? The result is that Volvo continues to receive blood transfusions from China's parent company, but it still burns money and makes losses.

Therefore, Jin Xiaoqiang does not want such a case to happen to his company.

If GM does not give in on this point, then it would rather not cooperate with them than let them ruin the car series they have carefully built.

To be honest, he really doesn't believe in their strength, he just doesn't believe it!

The one who is anxious about this cooperation plan now is GM, not Huayang Dynamics. What's more, the core technology of the entire new car series was developed by him, and he doesn't want to get GM's advantage in vain.

So there are only two ways, if you want to cooperate, agree to his conditions, or ask GM to get out of here. As for entering the US market, it is not up to him and GM alone.

If I really can’t take the general road, is there any other way I can take?

The worst I can do is spend more money to open a factory in the United States to create more jobs for Americans. Jin Xiaoqiang doesn’t believe it. The U.S. government will not agree to an opportunity that may involve tens of thousands of jobs for the sake of GM!

"Boss, what do you think is the appropriate proportion of the equity between our two companies?"

After all, Wang Jiao is just an executor. Although Jin Xiaoqiang just said that he must have absolute say, he is still not sure what proportion of equity Huayang Power should have in this cooperation.

"Um......"

Jin Xiaoqiang started to think about it. In fact, he really didn't think about this problem in detail just now. Now that he thought about it, it was indeed a big problem.

"Well, it would be appropriate for me to control GM's shares to 30 to 40 percent."

Jin Xiaoqiang thought for a while before saying to Wang Jiao.

"What? This seems a little difficult, right?"

When Wang Jiao heard this proportion, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed. After all, General Motors is also the largest automobile manufacturer in the United States. It is the largest American company in the top ten of the world's top 500 companies and the second largest industrial company in the world.

A giant that produces 9 million cars.

When negotiating with such a company, he would inevitably feel a little afraid. Jin Xiaoqiang's proposal was simply unbelievable to him.

Unexpectedly, Jin Xiaoqiang glanced at him and said to him.

"What are you afraid of? Don't even think about it. Our Qoros series, from research and development to completion, was all completed by Huayang Dynamics ourselves. Did GM spend a penny on it? Now they are here to discuss cooperation.

, don’t we just want to pick peaches? What can they provide us? Isn’t it just their broken relationship with the US government? And their sales network in North America? What else can they offer?

Huh! They have been going downhill in the past twenty years, and now we are not asking them, but they are asking us!"

Jin Xiaoqiang said these words with some resentment. Just before Wang Jiao came back, Nick Reilly had vaguely threatened him when he was negotiating with him. Now when he thinks about it, Jin Xiaoqiang's heart

It's a little uncomfortable.

Wang Jiao can also understand what Jin Xiaoqiang said, but he still feels that this negotiation is somewhat unsustainable when he puts forward such conditions with GM.

But before he could recover, Jin Xiaoqiang continued to put forward a very harsh condition.

"And you have to remember that our cooperation with them only provides the following cooperation methods. They are responsible for setting up assembly plants in Europe and the United States, and we are responsible for the headquarters factory in China, and then send the parts to them.

Assembly. Then the profit division method is to divide Europe and the United States according to 50%. As for the Chinese market, it belongs to us. The rest of the world is stratified according to **. Of course, we account for 60%.

They occupy four floors. If this plan is adopted, then try to use a universal sales network."

Jin Xiaoqiang thought about it for a while and then said again, but this suggestion made Wang Jiao scream in surprise.

"What? Boss, isn't this letting GM serve as an assembly factory for us?"

"That's right, I just want GM to be our assembly factory!"

Jin Xiaoqiang glanced at Wang Jiao. Obviously he was very dissatisfied with Wang Jiao's attitude. Why did he feel that he was shorter than GM before the negotiation started?

No, I must correct his thinking!

What’s so great about General Motors? In a few years, will this company finally file for bankruptcy protection from the U.S. government? Will the company’s controlling stake be reshuffled?

Well, but these days, especially when the U.S. economy is doing well in the past few years, GM still seems to be very strong. Compared with its annual production and sales record of 9 million vehicles, its own Huayang Dynamics is completely insignificant.

It’s no wonder that Wang Jiao gives such a big prize to the little monsters!

But what I have to do now is to cheer up Wang Jiao and give him the courage to negotiate with GM.

"Wang Jiao, you have to know that we are the ones who master the core technology now, it's us, you know! They GM are just here to pick peaches. If they are unwilling to accept our conditions, then we can produce them independently.

, I don’t believe it. Without him, Butcher Zhang, we would still have to eat pigs with hair on them. You have to remember that we are not incapable of independent production. Even if we want to establish a branch factory in the United States, we can still afford it.

. Look at Toyota, Honda, Nissan and South Korea's Hyundai. Have they not been threatened by General Motors since they have grown up to this day? But what was the result? Haven't they also established a firm foothold in the current automobile industry?

"

When Jin Xiaoqiang said this, Wang Jiao's face did look better.

"And do you know what the first thing you want to do after you go to the United States?"

Jin Xiaoqiang said to Wang Jiao, but Wang Jiao looked confused at this time, not knowing how to answer Jin Xiaoqiang's question.

"You have to let the wind out. You can even quietly contact Ford, or Chrysler, or any other automobile manufacturing company. In short, you have to make GM nervous. Hahaha!"

After saying this, Jin Xiaoqiang couldn't help but feel happy. The idea of ​​​​this destructive move suddenly came to his mind.

It is true that if Wang Jiao does this, GM will definitely be nervous. GM is indeed the No. 1 in the American automobile industry, but Ford, which has been second in the industry for thousands of years, is willing to always succumb to GM?

You must know that since Jin Xiaoqiang announced the development plan of the new car Qoros, probably all the automobile manufacturing companies in the world have hated Huayang Dynamics with gnashing of teeth.

But if he announces that he wants to find a partner to buy this new car together, I'm afraid how many people will immediately jump out and say that they have fallen in love with Huayang Power?

After all, anyone who is not a fool knows that this Qoros car of Huayang Power can be said to be a big gold mine just by virtue of its excellent powertrain. Such a gold mine, ordinary car companies

, the one who is willing to take it out and share it with others?

If Huayang Power is willing to share it with others, then even if GM is not willing to be Huayang Power's foundry, there may be countless other companies that want to be the first to give Huayang Power a modern factory!

You must know that it is not just General Motors that has a good relationship with the US government. Ford and Chrysler's influence on the US government is definitely not bad!

After Wang Jiao heard what Jin Xiaoqiang said, he also understood the position that Huayang Dynamics occupied in this negotiation, and he suddenly felt confident.

"Of course, if GM still doesn't agree, you can tell them that if they agree to our conditions, then we can consider introducing a car production line from them with an annual output of 500,000 vehicles."

Jin Xiaoqiang explained again.

After hearing Jin Xiaoqiang's suggestion, Wang Jiao immediately felt confident and felt more confident.
