Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth

Chapter 177 Finding the target

After receiving Bao Zixuan's order, John Chambers immediately contacted major headhunting companies in the United States to recruit automobile research and development talents, and began to inspect the factories that the American automobile giant was preparing to sell.

Affected by the oil crisis, the U.S. automobile industry has been severely affected. Now many companies have a large amount of production capacity that cannot be released. The operating rate of workers is seriously insufficient, and life is very difficult. Many American automobile engineers are unemployed and suddenly received blackmail.

After the Cloud Group wants to recruit a large number of automotive engineers and purchase automotive factories and machinery and equipment.

Many automobile giants in the United States have proactively contacted John Chambers. After all, everyone knows that Heiyun Group has very abundant cash flow. It is very rare to make a fortune at this time, not to mention that Bao Zixuan is very generous in buying things. This

But this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It is very likely that this store will no longer exist in this village. Everyone is very positive. After all, wherever the factory is idle, every day costs a huge amount of money.

Workers' wages alone are a headache for these automobile giants, and the United Automobile Workers Union is a very powerful organization. Many large companies cannot afford the consequences of laying off workers.

When an automotive engineer hears that Heiyun Group is recruiting workers, what are he waiting for? Sign up quickly. Bao Zixuan knows that if he wants a horse to run, he needs good grass. The entire Heiyun Group has very high salaries at its branches in various regions around the world. This is mainly because

At present, the products produced by Heiyun Group are hugely profitable, and many of them are in a monopoly position.

Now I heard that Heiyun Group is going to enter the automobile industry on a large scale, and many excellent engineers have come here inexplicably. This makes Bao Zixuan very happy. It seems that Heiyun Group is no weaker than other large companies in attracting talents. The road ahead

It will definitely be a lot easier to walk.

In 1925, Walter p. Chrysler left General Motors and founded Chrysler Motors. In the same year, the company bought Maxwell Motors. In 1928, it bought Dodge Brothers Motor Company. From 1936 to 1949, it once surpassed Ford.

The company became the second largest automobile company in the United States. However, from the 1950s to the early 1960s, production was in a period of decline. In the mid-1960s, the company stabilized its position through reorganization. After 1974, Chrysler's business declined again, and a serious crisis occurred in 1978.

The company suffered losses and was on the verge of bankruptcy in 1980. In the end, the government's federal loan guarantee of US$1.5 billion saved Chrysler from bankruptcy. It began to turn a profit in 1982. In 1994, the company had 115,900 employees and a net profit of 37

billion, accounting for 14.7% of the U.S. auto market.

In addition to civilian products, the company is also engaged in the production of military supplies, with 10 factories engaged in the defense and aerospace industries. The company has professional companies in export, transportation, finance, credit, leasing and insurance, and has 132 retail outlets in the United States.

The company is headquartered in Detroit, USA, and still has many branches in Canada, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Panama, South Africa, Australia and other countries. In the 1980s, it jointly produced Cherokee Jeeps with Beijing, China. Its automobile sales ranked first among automobile companies in the world.

Ninth. Its predecessor was Maxwell Motor Company.

The company has 36 automobile manufacturing plants and automobile parts factories, 22 parts warehouses and 10 defense and aerospace industry factories in China. The company's products are divided into two categories: first, automobile products. Including finished automobiles and their parts, the company also

Importing and selling cars from other automobile companies, the engineering technology, design and manufacturing equipment required for production are provided by the Chrysler Technical Center. The second is Chrysler's financial business. Chrysler Financial Institutions and its affiliates provide various financial services to Chrysler's customers

.Also provides wholesale and retail financial services, leasing services, inventory financial services and consumer credit. In addition, there are others, mainly referring to the car rental services provided by Five Star Transportation Company and its affiliates since the late 1980s.

Chrysler was acquired by Germany's Daimler Group for US$33 billion in 1998 to form DaimlerChrysler Automobiles. This combination, known as the "elephant marriage", failed to create a successful global automobile group. On the contrary,

The high retirement and pension costs in the United States have caused great trouble to Daimler.

In August 2007, Zepp Capital Management, a private equity fund headed by former U.S. Treasury Secretary Snow, completed the acquisition of Chrysler Automobile Company and purchased 80.1% of Chrysler's equity from DaimlerChrysler Group for US$7.4 billion.

After the acquisition, Chrysler will appear as "Chrysler LLC", while DaimlerChrysler Group will remove "Chrysler" from the company's name.

John Chambers is now introducing Bao Zixuan to this company, one of the three major automobile giants in the United States. Currently, the three major automobile manufacturing giants in the United States, General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler, are all having a difficult time. Among them, Chrysler is having the most difficult time.

However, it is simply unrealistic to acquire the automobile factories of General Motors and Ford. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how bad GM and Ford are, they will never sell their automobile factories. Corporate holding families like them are terrifying existences.

No shortage of money.

Even Chrysler Bao Zixuan has no intention of acquiring it. After all, this company has some defense contracting tasks. The U.S. government will never agree to sell Chrysler to a Xiangjiang native. But Bao Zixuan knows that he will never become an American citizen in his life. For

There is no chance at all for the acquisition of this kind of enterprise.

It shouldn't be a big problem if we acquire one or two factories and sub-brands. After all, this is a disguised solution to the employment problem of workers. At the same time, it can also provide funds for Chrysler to continue its life.

Bao Zixuan is currently interested in only three aspects of Chrysler, the Dodge automobile brand, the Jeep automobile brand and Chrysler's automobile factory.

In the previous life, it could be packaged and sold to the Germans and Italians. Now it should not be a big problem just to acquire one or two sub-brands and one or two car manufacturers.

John Chambers: "Boss, currently only Chrysler Motor Company in the United States meets our requirements. There is no problem in terms of scale and technical strength. The most important thing is that they are in trouble now. This gives us a chance, but boss

The overall acquisition of Chrysler can only be achieved by becoming a U.S. citizen, otherwise the Department of Commerce will not approve this plan."

Bao Zixuan had already thought about this problem, and it was more suitable to acquire automobile sub-brands and factories. He said: "Although I am interested in the overall acquisition of Chrysler, it is impossible to do it based on the current situation. We will settle for the next best thing now.

Mainly discussing the acquisition of Dodge, Jeep and automobile factories."

After all, it is impossible for Chrysler to sell many of its U.S. defense businesses to me, a Hong Kong native. Now we only need its two car brands and one or two factories. I think the U.S. Department of Commerce will not be embarrassed. After all, we will solve a lot of employment problems.

, the unemployment rate among American auto workers is very high right now.

John Chambers: "Okay, I'm relieved to hear you say that. I will immediately study the new plan proposed by the boss, but once the acquisition is completed, I hope the boss can come forward to appease Chrysler workers so that they can

I feel confident after the acquisition by Heiyun Group.”

Bao Zixuan agreed to John Chambers' request. He also knew the influence of the United Automobile Workers Union on workers. It would be very troublesome if the workers were not appeased after the acquisition. This is the reason why many people in later generations do not want to build factories in the United States. Maybe

There are some conveniences, but the workers alone will give everyone a headache.
