Chapter 1894

As the president of East Germany, not to mention worrying about the country all his life; but he has been in politics for a long time, and he is an absolutely senior person! Of course, it is clear where the gap between East Germany and West Germany is, otherwise it will not try its best to promote the merger of the two Germanys!

After the merger, the Germanic nation will become stronger. As for personal gains and losses, I really haven't thought about it. If you only think about yourself, you will not think about the merger of the two Germanys.

Just now Bao Zixuan has given the gap between the two Germanys. No matter what happens, it is impossible for East Germany to take the initiative after the merger!

Many things do exist objectively, but it is obvious to all that East Germany has a poorer economy and lower income than West Germany. There is no mention of the gap in governing ability between the top leaders of the two Germanys, which can be said to have given East Germany enough.

Manfred Gerlach said with a wry smile: "It is said that Mr. Bao is a top expert in the field of international economics and politics; it is only because of his achievements in the field of science and technology that his other abilities are covered up by his graduate in science and engineering. I didn't have much contact with it before, and I thought it was an exaggeration. Now it seems that I am ignorant, and there is no problem with media reports.

"Actually, even if you don't tell me, I know that it is not only caused by the high degree of damage to my own economic foundation, but also has a lot to do with the system and governance philosophy.

"Compared to West Germany, East Germany has fallen behind in all aspects."

"However, as Mr. Bao said, the people of East Germany are definitely a hardworking group; and they will never discredit their blood!"

"Even if you don't say some things, your Excellency has already guessed. At present, the two Germanys are seeking to merge, and the United States and the Soviet Union have obtained the acquiescence. The Berlin Wall will be dismantled this morning, and there will be no obstacles to national reunification."

"After the merger of the two Germanys, planning and development must follow the West German model; the situation of large state-owned enterprises in East Germany will become very embarrassing."

"I originally wanted to let a West German multinational company take over, but after comprehensive analysis, it is not so suitable."

"The long-term confrontation has made the relationship between the two Germanys not as harmonious as imagined; even after the merger, it still needs a process of adaptation. In addition, it is only handed over to the West German family, taking the opportunity to lower prices, or making some excessive demands; for the people of East Germany , extremely unfavorable."

"The merger is to make the country stronger and the people's lives happier; it must not harm the interests of one party."

"Mr. Bao led a delegation to East Germany, presumably because he was optimistic about some companies; the technology may be backward, but it is still much better than some developing countries. Before that, it was more due to the lack of flexibility in management, not because the products did not have market competitiveness. "

"Combined with the excellent technical workers in Germany, the acquisition will definitely not suffer a loss."

"There is absolutely no doubt about the economic strength of Xiangjiang merchants, and the management philosophy is worth learning from the whole world; it is very reassuring to entrust East German enterprises to you."

"In addition, the treatment of the Black Cloud Group is the envy of everyone; and it has been deeply cultivated in East Germany for many years. I believe that the public will not have any resistance."

Manfred Gerlach was very clear about Bao Zixuan's personality; a quick cut would increase the opponent's favor; of course, it was also because of the urgency of the situation, after all, there was not much time left for East Germany.

After the end of World War II, Germany was divided, and after more than 40 years of development after the war; West Germany's economy developed rapidly, and many large multinational companies emerged. The more famous ones are Mercedes-Benz Group, Siemens AG, Volkswagen Group, Bosch AG, Bayer AG and Daimler AG; these multinational companies developed with the aid of the United States and the West, and there was no large-scale multinational company in East Germany after World War II.

The people's enterprise, the backbone of the East German economy, is a large-scale joint enterprise; it is the result of the confiscation of a large number of Junker assets by the Soviet occupation authorities and the land reform in the Soviet-occupied areas. Each of these large conglomerates has its own construction department, transportation department, etc.

This kind of enterprise is suitable for the complete and precise implementation of the economic plan formulated by the central government; but it lacks production efficiency because of its large size and comprehensiveness. Moreover, East German enterprises are essentially producing for the country, and generally do not have independent export qualifications; their foreign trade is represented by the German Ministry of Foreign Trade.

Before the merger; the inherent shortage economy characteristics of the planned economy also made East German consumers hungry. As a result, a single product often has no competitors for decades, and it is difficult for manufacturers to have the motivation to maintain their brands and improve their products.

The most typical example is the satellite brand cars all over East Germany. The little car, named after the 1957 launch of a Soviet satellite, was not behind the times at first. Although the displacement is pitifully small, the car is also small. However, apart from a few fine-tuning, this car has been built for 30 years since it came out; it has made old drivers complain about it.

As for the complaints of old drivers, Saxon Ling Automobile Factory, which produces Satellite cars, doesn't care at all. Because it is hard to find a car, East German workers who want to buy a car usually have to wait in line for ten years to get what they want.

When Germany merged and the domestic market became part of the world market, many trademarks disappeared due to lack of interest. In a sense, this car is also one of the symbols of the East German era.

The East German brands that had certain market competitiveness in the previous life were almost unable to escape the fate of being acquired by West German companies.

Zeiss, Germany's most famous optical equipment company, split into Carl-Zeiss AG in West Germany and Carl-Zeiss Jena People's Enterprise in East Germany on both sides of the Iron Curtain after World War II.

If it were not for the emergence of Baozixuan and the Black Cloud Group, I believe East German Carl Zeiss would have the same fate as the previous life, and would eventually be acquired by the West German Zeiss Company.

In the eyes of Bao Shoufu, many companies in East Germany are still remarkable; at least Zeiss is very powerful, otherwise they would not have cooperated for such a long time.

Bao Zixuan thought for a while and said: "Since Your Excellency the President has made a choice, the Xiangjiang businessman will not let you down. It doesn't matter how you want us to cooperate."

"Try to keep the original appearance of the business as much as possible, and will provide an emergency loan; let many small and medium-sized enterprises return to the hands of the founder's family."

Hearing this, Manfred Gerlach immediately understood what it meant; if it could be done, it would definitely be a great happiness for the people of East Germany.

Made in Germany is synonymous with high quality, needless to say. The foundation of the German manufacturing industry is a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises, which are the key forces supporting the brand "Made in Germany".

In fact, the economic lifeline of West Germany depends to a greater extent on millions of small and medium-sized enterprises. Whether it is the number of employment, the number of apprentices, or the proportion of exports; they are not inferior to large multinational companies.

According to statistics; there are more than 2,000 hidden champion companies in the world, of which more than 1,000 are located in West Germany; accounting for half of the total, and spread across all walks of life.

West Germany's hidden champions have an average annual turnover of more than 100 million US dollars, and the average number of employees is about 2,000; most of the CEOs have served for more than 20 years, and their products have led the world market for more than 20 years; 65% are family businesses, and the average life expectancy of companies is 66 years old; 38% of them have a history of 100 years.

There are many hidden champion companies in West Germany, and of course East Germany also has them; it's just that it was before the division.

But the foundations of these companies are still there, and the founder's family still has descendants working in the factory. If they are allowed to return to power, and the Black Cloud Bank provides loans, all problems will be solved.

The kid in front of him is not greedy, of course it is not very accurate to say that; more is to increase the impression points, and at the same time provide the necessary support for the acquisition of large enterprises.

Manfred Gerlach thought for a while and said, "Mr. Bao is the entrepreneur who sincerely helped East Germany. On behalf of all the people, I would like to express my gratitude to you."

"There are only two months, and all plans must be completed; otherwise, it will be too late. At present, all large enterprises in East Germany will be open to Xiangjiang businessmen; you have the priority."

"I believe that with Mr. Bao's business reputation, the East German people will never suffer."

"As for some small and medium-sized enterprises, I hope that Mr. Bao can fulfill his promise; he will provide relevant support in terms of funds and markets. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com"

Hearing this, Bao Zixuan was very shocked; East Germany was a small country, and it was still a developed country. At this moment, Manfred Gerlach has made it very clear that they will be given two months to make the acquisition; it is a unique business.

Such favorable conditions make people feel a little fake; very unreal.

Fortunately, Bao Shoufu responded quickly and said directly: "Thank you, Your Excellency, for your trust. I also express my attitude here; the people of East Germany will not be disadvantaged in terms of funds; the acquired company will not easily fire any worker; And guarantee that the wages, benefits, and treatment will not be worse than those of Xiangjiang employees!"

"In addition, it will modernize the enterprise and actively expand overseas markets."
