Resource Tycoon Reborn

ps: ps: Tomorrow my father-in-law will have surgery for varicose veins on his legs. I have to go to the hospital early in the morning and I will go to bed soon. ±, so that’s all I have. Sorry.

Lawn Defield is a director of DaimlerChrysler, and the reason why DaimlerChrysler got the news that Hong Kong Kumho Film Group planned to start filming "Transformers" was from the Welf family. Since I heard

When the news got out, the board of directors of DaimlerChrysler was also very tempted by this. Because at this time, DaimlerChrysler was also in dire straits, and the company's stock had fallen from a historical high of nearly $130 to

With only thirty US dollars, the company's shareholders suffered extremely heavy losses. Good news was urgently needed to boost shareholders' confidence in the company.

In order to withstand the financial crisis in Southeast Asia, it was also because the management of Daimler-Benz at the time made the decision to merge with Chrysler. At that time, Daimler-Benz was owned by Toyota Motor

exceeded, and fell out of the original top three ranks.

In addition, the problem of overcapacity in the global automobile industry can be said to be very serious. Moreover, due to the outbreak of the financial crisis in Southeast Asia, the world's major automobile consumer markets have shrunk to varying degrees, and competition among major automobile manufacturers has become increasingly fierce. In this

Under this general trend, how to occupy the largest possible market share and ensure the company's profitability is a problem that major global automobile companies have to consider. And by expanding scale production to reduce unit costs to obtain more profits is a key issue for the global manufacturing industry.

With the development trend of the automobile industry, it has become a major trend in the automobile industry to take the road of strong alliances between enterprises.?

Daimler-Benz merges with Chrysler Automobile Company. The new company will gain considerable market share in both the North American and European markets, thereby changing Chrysler Automobile Company's over-reliance on North America as 93% of its sales are in the North American market.

The market situation can also change the situation where most of Daimler-Benz's sales are in the European market and its North American market share is insufficient. The merger of the two companies can complement each other in the market, thus improving its market share in the North American and European markets.

market share and improve the company's position in the global automotive industry.

Moreover, there is basically no overlap in the production lines between Daimler-Benz and Chrysler. Chrysler mainly produces low-priced cars, light trucks and minivans, while Daimler-Benz mainly produces luxury cars and commercial vehicles.

With heavy-duty trucks, there is basically no competition between the products of the two parties. Instead, they can form complementary products, thereby further improving their own product categories.

Furthermore, the two companies have huge and complete sales networks in the European market and the North American market respectively. If these two sales networks can be successfully integrated, there will undoubtedly be huge business potential hidden behind it. Moreover, Daimler

- As the world's largest luxury car manufacturer, Mercedes-Benz is world-renowned for its brand awareness and product quality, while Chrysler Motors also has amazing results in the fields of multi-purpose off-road vehicles, vans and light trucks. Both parties

The successful sharing of technology between companies is also a strong impetus for future company development.

Since the new company in the future has so many potential advantages, the management of the two companies naturally hit it off. Although both companies are world-class giant multinational companies, they both occupy important positions that cannot be ignored in the economic industries of their respective countries.

, but the merger process of the two parties was not hindered by the two governments. It was not only welcomed by the German government, but also supported by the U.S. government. This allowed the two companies to successfully merge and join forces.

The result was that DaimlerChrysler Group became the second largest automobile manufacturer in the world at that time!

For a time, other car companies in the global automobile industry were in danger, and there was an atmosphere of a crying wolf. However, the subsequent development of DaimlerChrysler surprised everyone, and everyone originally thought.

The successful merger of the two companies can carry out all-round collaboration in many aspects such as procurement, marketing, technical cooperation and parts exchange, thereby significantly reducing current marketing costs, improving technology research and development, and achieving further expansion.

Global market share, improving global competitiveness and many other purposes. In fact, it is almost a replica of the merger of AOL and Time Warner Group!

At the beginning of the cooperation, DaimlerChrysler did show impressive performance. Total car sales increased significantly, and operating income increased by 17%. However, soon after, the situation became...

On the other hand, in 2000, Chrysler Automobile Company lost US$1.9 billion. In the next two years, although DaimlerChrysler worked hard to change this situation, Chrysler Automobile Company still suffered losses one after another.

Loss, in a few years, it has lost nearly 3.6 billion US dollars!

Chrysler Motor Company's consecutive losses have dragged down DaimlerChrysler as a whole. The company's stock price has plummeted, and its total market value has dropped from over 100 billion U.S. dollars to less than 30 billion U.S. dollars. This number is even worse than

The original market capitalization of Daimler-Benz.

"Alas..." Lawn Defield sighed lightly. The current situation of DaimlerChrysler can be said to be extremely unoptimistic. As a shareholder of the original Daimler-Benz Company, he has no regard for Chrysler Automobiles.

I hate the company's delaying behavior. Why did I get so confused in the first place that I voted in favor of the proposal to merge the two companies? Now, my net worth has shrunk significantly.

"Director Defield, are you worried about whether you can convince Hong Kong Kumho Film Group to let us place advertisements in new movies?" The middle-aged white man sitting next to him noticed Defield's sigh. He said

His name is Dan Hillman, the head of DaimlerChrysler's truck division.

"Hillman, I'm not too worried about convincing Hong Kong Kumho Film Group to let us place ads in new movies. Since Hong Kong Kumho Film Group revealed the news to our company through the Welf family,

Then it shows that Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company still appreciates our products. Moreover, a certain director of our company once made the Fang family, the major shareholder of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company, owe a favor. As long as our company

If the conditions offered are not very dissatisfactory to Hong Kong Kumho Film Group, there should be no problem." Defield pondered for a moment and decided not to tell Hillman that the former Daimler-Benz shareholders and directors were on the board of directors.

The relationship between the former shareholders of Chrysler Automobile Company has reached a freezing point. Some former shareholders of Daimler-Benz have already put forward the proposal to transfer the shares of Chrysler Automobile Company. After all, in the minds of these employees of the company, how to turn around the current situation?

The bad situation is the most important issue for the board of directors.

"It's just that this time we go, the most important goal is whether the car prototype of Optimus Prime, the leader of the Autobots, can be handed over to our company. Although I haven't read the script, I think this character will definitely be a character in the new movie.

A very important role," Defield said.

Dan Hillman was immediately speechless. Although DaimlerChrysler is also the world's top truck manufacturer, it also has many competitors. Especially this time, they have focused on cars.

The human leader Optimus Prime is on the body, which naturally increases the difficulty.

"The Fang family has ever owed favors to the directors of our company?" Hillman asked curiously.

"A few years ago, it seems that a steel company in China had to find a new company to transport a batch of vehicle steel plates for our company because the cargo ship of the original shipping company was detained. This may delay the delivery.

The Fang family interceded for it, and we agreed to a seven-day grace period. However, the last batch of vehicle steel plates arrived at the port on the last day of the contract, so don't take this favor too seriously." Defield.
