"Secretary of State's car"?

Jack Welch was stunned for a moment, then thought quickly.

Before that, there was no such thing as a "secretary of state's car", whether it was the American media or the public, everyone was concerned about what brand, what it looked like, and what special functions the car of the American president was, and no one cared what kind of car the secretary of state used.

This also led to a ...... over a long period of time Or to put it simply: no one has ever cared what the secretary of state is in.

But if a brand really "cooperates" with Millican's Secretary of State, and emphasizes its "Secretary of State's car" attribute in future publicity, who dares to say that this brand is not also a luxury brand?

Thinking about it like this, even Jack Welch himself was extremely surprised: how could such a large market gap never be cared about?

But this is the case, from the initial development of its own automobile industry in the United States to the present, it has been hundreds of years, countless car brands have broken their heads for the "Commander's Car", and finally only the two brands of Lincoln and Cadillac remain, but for such a long time, no one has ever pondered the "Secretary of State's car"!

Of course, the B grid of the "Secretary of State's car" is a little lower than that of the "Commander's Car", but compared to the embarrassment of not having any official honors now, if it can become the "Secretary of State's car", it will definitely make the Lexus's B grid rise a lot, there is no doubt about this.

Thinking of this, Jack Welch nodded excitedly: "I think so! God, this is really a genius idea, why didn't I think of it?"

Jack Welch was both happy and annoyed: if this idea had come up with it, it would have been a shame that I could have left a mark on the history of the automobile industry......

But more than annoyed, he was actually happy: although the suggestion was made by Mr. Fernández, it seemed good if it could be carried out by my hands.

Seeing the eagerness in Jack Welch's eyes, Chen Geng smiled: "What's the matter, Jack, are you excited?"

"Yes, I am indeed moved," Jack Welch nodded, he did not deny the temptation of this matter to himself: "Sir, can you let me do this?"

Since Jack Welch is so positive, Chen Geng naturally will not refuse: "Of course there is no problem, in addition, I will recommend you another person." ”

"Who?"

"Coleman Young," Chen Geng said with a smile, "This guy is the uncle of Colin Luthor's cousin's son-in-law, you take this guy with you, although it may not be able to help much, but it is still good to have such a relationship after all." ”

Jack Welch certainly knows Coleman Young, before his boss successfully ran for mayor of Detroit, this guy was the mayor of Detroit for many years, and now he has been successfully taken under his boss, but this guy is still the uncle of the son-in-law of the cousin of the current Secretary of State Colin Luthor?

It took a lot of effort for Jack Welch to smooth out the relationship between the two, and then he became happy: with such a layer of kinship, communication with Colin Luthor was undoubtedly an added insurance.

....................................

Colin Luthor received Jack Welch and Coleman Young very warmly.

Don't look at the first black secretary of state in Millican's history, Colin Luthor was touted by the media as the "light of the black", but few people realize that Colin Luthor bears pressure that all his predecessors can't imagine, and a large part of these pressures come from his own skin color, so naturally, befriending Jack Welch has become a very important means to stabilize his position, not to mention the uncle of his cousin's son-in-law who came to visit him with Mr. Jack Welch...... Although the relationship was a bit awkward, there was no doubt that the presence of Coleman Young made the meeting less formal.

At the same time, Colin Luthor was still a little curious: what is Jack Welch looking for himself?

Jack Welch didn't keep Colin Luthor waiting too long, and after a few greetings, Jack Welch explained his intention: "Mr. Luther, I came to visit you this time, Mr. Fernandez, he is very grateful for your contributions to the United States in the past few years in office, and in order to thank you, he has decided to give you two bulletproof versions of the LexusLS sedan as your car." ”

Colin Luthor was able to be appointed secretary of state by George Jr., of course, his brain is not stupid, and when Jack Welch said that Chen Geng wanted to sponsor a LexusLS sedan for himself as his car, he instantly understood Chen Geng's purpose in his heart: although he didn't know what Fernandez Chen planned to do, AMC Motors would never give a car to himself for nothing.

But he didn't interrupt Jack Welch, but bowed his head slightly, motioning for Jack Welch to continue.

Jack Welch was pleased with Colin Luther's reaction, this guy is a smart guy, and continued: "Mr. Luther, you probably have already thought, yes, we at AMC are going to make the Lexus brand a 'Secretary of State's car', of course, we will not let you help in vain, after you retire, the AMC Automotive Foundation will invite you to give a national tour of no less than 20 speeches, and each speech will cost no less than $200,000." ”

Jack Welch made it a condition for AMC to ask Colin Luthor to endorse, to be exact, Secretary of State Millican's endorsement of Lexus.

In fact, this kind of "cooperation" is too common in the United States, you don't see it in Millican, after a certain president leaves office, we can often hear the news that the person has published a book and made tens of millions of dollars, and we can often hear the news that a former president gave a speech and got tens of thousands of dollars for the speech......

This is actually the American-style transfer of benefits: if you help me, I will give you the "thank you fee" in this way reasonably and legally.

And there is no doubt that Colin Luther was immediately moved: after he stepped down from the position of secretary of state, he would make at least 20 lecture tours, and at the same time pay no less than $200,000 per speech?

That's $4 million in endorsement fees.

Licking his lips, Colin Luthor's eyes showed a hint of greed: "I think 30 lecture tours is a good idea. ”
