Henry Ford II seemed to understand what MacDonald meant, which is to ask Black Cloud to take back all the active-duty jeeps in the U.S. military. Most of the jeeps used in the United States were produced during the Vietnam War and have been seriously aged. Is Bao Zixuan that stupid?

Besides, the U.S. Army is the largest army in the world, and the U.S. military itself pays great attention to logistical supplies. The military transport vehicles are absolutely the largest in the world, even the Soviet army cannot be compared with it.

Before Heiyun did not acquire the Jeep brand, most American vehicles were Jeep. This is also one of the reasons why Chrysler can become one of the three largest automakers in the United States, with the majority of sales being purchased by the military.

Now Chrysler has sold the Jeep brand to Black Cloud Motors, although it retains a line of military vehicles. However, Chrysler's design has been completely backward, and the products designed cannot meet the modern strategic needs of the United States.

It was also during this period in the previous life that GM's Hummer brand took advantage of the situation and became an auto supplier to the US side.

Because of the strong lift of Heiyun Automobile, American automakers are much sadder than in the previous life. Including GM and Ford, the situation of other manufacturers can be imagined.

Henry Ford II said very seriously: "President Mike's intention is to let Black Cloud Motors buy back used cars from the United States and make room for us."

"Bao Zixuan is just rich, so he can't do this kind of thing. There are so many cars, what's the use of buying them back. And it's impossible for the military to place orders for Heiyun Automobile. Heiyun should not be so obedient."

In fact, no one would agree to buy back the products sold. And these products have been used for many years, and the main damage is still very serious.

Mac Donald said with a smile: "We can't look at Bao Zixuan with ordinary people's eyes, he is not a person who plays cards according to common sense."

"So many cars may be a burden in the hands of normal people. But where he is, he may be able to exchange a large amount of money."

"Although cars are outdated products in the United States, they are definitely good items in other countries. For example, in the Middle East and China, these places can be used as sales places."

Hearing that it could be sold, Henry Ford II knew MacDonald's true intentions. At present, this business can only be done by Heiyun Automobile, because the Jeep brand is in their hands.

But neither China nor the Middle East need so many vehicles. This is a problem for Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan, and it also needs to occupy the production line.

According to statistics, the United States has more than 300,000 transport vehicles of various types. China's economy is backward, and people in the Middle East are very picky. Even if the sale is at most a fraction, it's a very small fraction. Most of the vehicles have to be smashed into the hands, or sold for scrap iron disposal.

The retired U.S. military vehicles are not new, and they must be repaired after the repurchase. It is bound to occupy the production line. The production capacity of Heiyun Automobile is already very tight. If there are hundreds of thousands of vehicles occupying the production line, whether other products should continue to be produced, these are troublesome.

If Bao Zixuan agrees to buy back U.S. military retired vehicles; it is estimated that in the next six months, or even a year, do not think about increasing the production of Heiyun Automobile. This is their real purpose, after all, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Henry Ford II: "President Mike's intention is to convince the military to replace the vehicle first, which is relatively simple. After all, this is something that is good for everyone, and the use of the most advanced combat tools is also a guarantee for the safety of soldiers. ."

"It's not difficult to convince the military to sell retired military vehicles to Heiyun. It can be operated in the dark, and everyone can get benefits."

"The key is how to convince Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan. This is the most critical issue. If Bao Zixuan doesn't agree, we are all fantasies here. Even if we replace the military vehicles, it will be a part at most, and the number will not be too large. Big."

In fact, MacDonald didn't have a clue in his heart. He just talked about China and the Middle East, just wanted to cheer up Ford II and reassure the old guy.

Now ask this question, it must be faced and solved.

MacDonald: "Bao Zixuan bought so many machine tools, tanks, and armored vehicles in the Soviet Union before. Now the U.S. government is in trouble. Don't you want to help? This is contempt for the United States. Do you think the military will make him feel better!"

Hearing this, Ford II makes some sense. Bao Zixuan is not only a super genius and a successful businessman. He also has a nickname, King of Junk, but he has bought a lot of junk from the Soviet Union over the years.

However, this kid is also capable, and after repairing it, he actually sold it. It may be true as MacDonald said, Bao Zixuan should agree to buy back retired vehicles.

MacDonald continued: "In addition, GM and Ford can put pressure on if Black Cloud Motor agrees to sell the Jeep brand and production line. Our two companies are willing to buy back retired military vehicles on the condition that the Jeep brand and production line belong to us."

This is a conspiracy. Jeep is now a very profitable brand under Heiyun Motors. The market share is gradually rising, how can it be sold at this time.

Retired military vehicles are mostly Jeeps that GM and Ford can't fix even if they want to buy them back. Because it involves patent issues, it can only be handled by Jeep at present.

Ford II is very satisfied, it seems that Mac Donald is really a talent. His age is not too young, and no one in the family has the ability to serve as chairman. Are you looking for a suitable opportunity to dig this kid over?

Henry Ford II said with a smile: "What President Mike said is very reasonable. Just do as you say."

"Ford never takes advantage of anyone. After the event is completed, we are half of the family. I know that GM has done a lot of preparatory work in the early stage, and Ford can compensate them financially."

Mac Donald was a little unhappy, after all, Ford couldn't account for half of it by any measure.

At present, GM is about 1.3 times larger than Ford. And the research and development of new military vehicles, the general aspect is about to be completed. And the military is happy with its performance and handling.

Now Ford will take half of the share when it comes up. Isn't this coming to pick up a bargain! There are so many good things in the world, and GM has to dominate.

MacDonald: "Mr. Ford's proposal is very good, but now GM has almost finished everything. At this time, it is difficult for one half of the family to explain to the board of directors. If Ford is abandoned, GM has a great opportunity. But without cooperation with GM, Ford doesn't seem to have a good choice."

Ford II seemed to have long known that the other party would refuse, and said with a smile: "It's not that Ford has no other choice, but he is disdainful of choosing. President Mike also wants to leave a way for himself, and many things are best not to do too much."

"You can't work at GM all your life, and it is estimated that the trust of the board of directors in you is not as high as before. Ford has a longer history, and in terms of technical strength alone, GM is not comparable to Ford in many areas. Ford is only marketing and Compared with GM in terms of capital operation, it is only a little worse.

What does this old guy mean, is he trying to dig himself into the past. It's not that there is no such possibility, or else I wouldn't speak like that.

Mac Donald: "Thank you for your love, Mr. Ford, but I can't affect the cooperation between companies because of my friendship with Mr. Ford."

Who would believe this kind of nonsense and without any guarantee of interest, and win benefits by selling out the interests of the company; this kind of behavior that goes against professional ethics is not desirable~www.mtlnovel.com~ The most important thing is to act in front of another company boss noodle.

If this is done, Ford II will definitely think that GM can be sold for profit today; whether or not Ford can be sold for profit tomorrow.

Henry Ford II knew that MacDonald would not commit crimes easily. If a little gesture of goodwill could make him change his principles, then this person would not be the CEO of GM, and the GM board of directors would not be so stupid.

In the end, the two had preliminary discussions and reached an agreement that General Motors would take up 55% of the overall share; Ford would take 35%; the remaining 10% would be reserved for other companies.

Now that a consensus has been reached, the next step is to execute according to the established plan.

This needs Mac Donald to be responsible, and Ford II can show his face at a critical moment. In any case, let the government and the military know that the Ford family is also involved.

The richest man in Japan does not know yet; a crisis, of course, may be an opportunity waiting for him. This once again disrupted the overall planning of the Black Cloud Group. However, there are some problems; it is difficult to refuse before reaching a certain strength!
