The capital market in mid-July was relatively calm. After having a feast in the capital market, Amarans and their star traders also needed some time to digest the fruits of their victory and prepare for them further.

The next action...

Other large institutions also need time to recuperate and prepare for the next round of battle.

This period of time has become a rare free time for Jin Xiaoqiang. After Huang Guotao and Brian had a meeting with Jin Xiaoqiang last time and unified their thoughts, in order to prepare for the next battle, Huang Guotao and Brian took their team

I left New York and went to a resort in New Jersey for a vacation.

Now is the midsummer season, which is also a popular travel time for Americans. All employees have participated in several major battles some time ago, so it is also necessary to take some time to calm down and rest.

The most important thing is to take these people away from New York and prohibit them from contacting the outside world to avoid leaking the news. At the same time, they are also collecting information about Amarans from everywhere, preparing to

In the capital market, follow Jin Xiaoqiang's plan to give Amarans a head-on blow.

During this time, Jin Xiaoqiang did not go to the headquarters of Thunderbird Company. He went to visit some old friends.

Of course, the first person to visit was Nick Reilly, the current president of General Motors. Although the current economic situation in the United States is very good, the situation of General Motors is not so good.

In the past, due to rapid global expansion, they had swallowed up many companies in the United States and around the world. If the global economy was doing well and their competitors were not strong, their lives would have been relatively easy.

However, although the current global economic situation looks good, as the US government goes to war in the Middle East, it has led to a rapid rise in oil prices. This has also made life difficult for General Motors, which is already good at developing large-displacement cars.

stand up.

And as people pay more and more attention to energy conservation and environmental protection, the popularity of small-displacement cars, and the increasingly strong performance of competitors brought about by globalization, General Motors has fallen into a quagmire that it is difficult to extricate itself from.

Their share of the global market is constantly being eroded by German car companies, Japanese car companies, and the recently rising Korean car companies, as well as Chinese car companies.

Coupled with the huge number of employees employed by General Motors, they need to pay huge pensions and wages every year. This has also led to negative growth in revenue in recent years although General Motors has the highest sales volume in the market.

situation.

Therefore, starting from this year, GM has begun to implement their global tightening and platform integration model. This task is an offending task.

They need to close some domestic and foreign factories, lay off a considerable number of workers and managers, and then integrate the technologies of different brands of cars. At the same time, they need to sell many shares of other companies that are not optimistic.

If this job is done well, then there is no doubt that the current leader will become a reform master that many people worship. But if it is not handled well, then there is no doubt that the current leader will become a reform master that many people reviled.

object.

But it is a pity that there are not many masters with such adjustment ability, and Nick Reilly is obviously not one of such masters, so he is now like a monkey sitting on the crater.

He also knows that by doing this, the company is obviously treating him as a scapegoat. Once the company's internal structure is adjusted, in order to give an explanation to the outside world, the senior executives on the company's board of directors will obviously kick him away and make him a scapegoat.

Go and give an explanation to the public and laid-off employees.

Although Nick Reilly does not seem to be such a character, it is obvious that some things are beyond his control.

So during this period of time, after analyzing and understanding these truths, Nick seemed very depressed. Originally, he had longed to revitalize GM, become a major contributor to GM, and then enter politics, although there was no guarantee that he would be able to become the president of the United States.

, but at the very least, it is very possible to become a senior executive of a government, have a glorious family history, and then retire.

But now it seems that such a dream is not feasible.

When Jin Xiaoqiang saw Nick Reilly, the guy was hiding in his castle-like villa in the suburbs of New York. He had an unshaven beard, a pale face, and was much thinner than at the beginning of the year. It could be seen that the recent period

During that time, he was indulgent in sex, depressed, and seemed very decadent.

It is estimated that if his name had not been reported, this guy might have been hiding in the villa until he was fired by GM.

"Nick, what happened? Why weren't you in Detroit?"

To be honest, Jin Xiaoqiang also felt a little strange. Normally, even if his fate had been decided, Nick should appear in Detroit, but when he learned about it and saw him in New York, he still felt very strange.

"Haha, what's the use in Detroit? I have no value here, do you understand? All administrative orders are issued in my name, but there are many that even I don't know about

, my fate has been decided, I am destined to be a guy who will be infamy for eternity..."

Nick waved away the blond maid who came up to pour him wine. It seemed that this guy had been tossing a lot of his beautiful maids during this period, otherwise he wouldn't have lost so much weight.

After hearing Nick's words, Jin Xiaoqiang knew that his fate seemed to have been determined a long time ago. GM had completely ignored him and planned to treat him as a chess piece that could be abandoned at any time.

If that's the case, it's useless to show up in Detroit. It's better to stay out of sight and out of mind, just stay at home and wait for the notice from GM.

"Then what are you going to do next?"

Jin Xiaoqiang asked again.

"What should I do? Haha, what else can I do? Just eat at home and wait to die! I have worked for them for so many years, do you think they can just kick me out and use me as a scapegoat? If they knew how to behave,

They will definitely give me a very generous hush money, so that I can live a life without worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life. Work? I don’t have much hope in the future, and this is all I can do for the rest of my life.

..”

Nick let out a long sigh, drank the wine in his hand, and then poured himself another glass.

Jin Xiaoqiang also sighed. It is true that no one would feel too comfortable with such an experience. He worked hard for the company all his life, but in the end, he was ruthlessly abandoned by others.

"Nick, if I say, I want you to go over and help me, would you be willing?"

After being silent for a while, Jin Xiaoqiang finally said an idea that he had been pondering in his mind for a long time before coming.

In fact, the idea of ​​inviting Nick Reilly to help him suddenly appeared in Jin Xiaoqiang's mind after hearing about his experience.

This Nick Reilly has been working at General Motors since he graduated from MIT majoring in mechanical automation at the age of twenty. At the beginning, he was an engineer at the General Design Institute.

After working for eight years, he became the director of the design department. Taking up this position at the age of twenty-eight is not a small miracle, which is enough to testify to this guy's ability.

He then stayed in this position for another five years before becoming overseas manager, first in Australia for a few years and then in Europe, where he stayed for ten years.

During this period, he achieved very unfamiliar results. For example, when he was working in Australia, he was responsible for the merger of the local Holden company in Australia, etc.

Later, because of his accurate vision, he started cooperating with Huayang Power. He was appreciated by the GM board of directors again and was transferred back to North America to serve as the president of North America. To be honest, he was the highest ranked person in GM.

The core of power is only one step away.

But it is a pity that he was born at the wrong time, but he happened to catch up with such an era of comprehensive collapse of GM, so it is understandable to call him a scapegoat.

He is only fifty-two years old now. Because he has taken good care of himself in the early stage, if he does not continue to struggle like he is now, he will have no problem working for twenty years.

The most important thing is that he has overseas development experience that Huayang Power lacks most. You must know that in the next few years, Huayang Power will expand its technology in overseas markets. At this time, Huayang Power’s overseas development department must

There needs to be a leader.

Not only must this leader have rich overseas experience and be familiar with the laws of other countries, but most importantly, he must have his own network of relationships in various developed countries.

But the person who is suitable for this position is sitting right in front of him. This guy Nick Reilly is just right for Huayang Dynamics.

He used to be a senior executive of General Motors. With the name of General Motors, he has many friends all over the world, and the most important thing is that it was he who single-handedly promoted the cooperation between General Motors and Huayang Dynamics.

So as long as he comes forward to ask GM for help, GM will definitely miss him a little bit.

Even though GM is in dire straits now, and in two years' time, they will fall into a crisis of bankruptcy, but as long as the powerful US government is still there, and as long as the US government still supports General Motors, then this company can only recover.

It only takes a matter of minutes, but their influence and network of relationships in the world cannot be underestimated.

After hearing Jin Xiaoqiang's invitation, Nick Reilly, who was sitting opposite, brightened up, but immediately shook his head vigorously as if he had heard the wrong news. Finally, after a while, he came out.

asked in a voice.

"Mistkin, are you telling the truth?"
