Looking at Patrick Robbie, vice president of Johnson Controls Group, who looked confused and didn't know how to answer, Chen Geng suddenly smiled slightly and suggested: "I have some preliminary ideas on how to deepen the further cooperation between AMC and Johnson Controls, Mr. Patrick, if you are not in a hurry, we might as well take time to have a good chat after the meeting?"

Chen Geng, of course, would not be so stupid as to offend the entire American auto parts industry.

Facing the ladder handed over by Chen Geng, Patrick Robbie naturally hurriedly got off the donkey, and quickly nodded and said, "OK, I'm fine." ”

Thinking that Johnson Controls and Lear have both car seat business, Patrick Robbie couldn't help but think crankily: Could it be that Fernandez Chen only symbolically got some orders for seats from Dongying people, so he needs to ask Johnson Controls to fill most of the seat gaps?

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense, because apart from this reason, Patrick Robbie really can't think of any other reason for Fernandez Chen to give himself face like this, so the question is, when he is not sure that this is the case for the time being, should he adjust Johnson Control's negotiation strategy......

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

Patrick Robbie has pondered whether to ask AMC for a sky-high price next, it doesn't mean that other suppliers are also qualified to ponder this issue, no one knows how many contracts are in Aniston's bag, maybe only the one that just took out and scared Lear, maybe ten or eight, maybe thirty or fifty...... But even if there are only three or five copies, what if you can just top off your company's order?

No representative of any company on the scene dares to ignore this possibility!

Why is this so? Is the tens of thousands of orders from AMC so important to these companies?

You know, AMC is no longer one of the "four major automakers in the United States" in previous years, AMC, which had a total production of less than 50,000 units last year, can still occupy the chair of "one of the four major automakers in the United States", not because of their strength, but because of ...... There are only four passenger car brands in the United States: General Motors, Ford, Chrysler and AMC.

The fact is that under the influence of this oil crisis, which only God will know when it will end, these tens of thousands of orders from AMC are really so important to the major auto parts manufacturers who are having a hard time!

Industrial production is to pay attention to a scale efficiency, the same product, the larger the total output, the lower the R & D and production costs evenly distributed to each product, and the higher the premium ability with upstream raw material suppliers, with AMC's tens of thousands of orders, you can get a price from upstream raw material suppliers, but if there are no next few orders, you can only get a relatively high price of B, this situation is normal.

Therefore, for these spare parts suppliers, even if they do not make money here in AMC, or even have a slight loss, as long as they can ensure the total production capacity and the premium ability with upstream raw material suppliers, the overall calculation is actually profitable, and I am afraid that the total production capacity will not go up.

If AMC doesn't get the order from the damn Dongying people, then it's not a big problem, there are so many auto parts suppliers in the whole of North America, you don't buy from me, and there are no other places, and the major spare parts suppliers still have the confidence to go back and forth with AMC...... Anyway, when it comes to not being able to afford it, the first one you can't afford to consume is you AMC, do you know how much money you will lose when the production line stops for a day?

But now, AMC has opened up new suppliers, which is not a big trouble, almost all the auto parts manufacturers on the scene are full of anxiety - feng shui turns, and now they can't afford to spend it has become the major suppliers who are ready to knock on the old and hard work.

Chen Geng looked at the huge black leather bag in front of Aniston, and said bluntly to everyone: "I won't hide it from everyone, in Miss Aniston's bag, any manufacturer present can find Dongying's spare parts supplier corresponding to you......"

Before Chen Geng's words were finished, the representative of Novelis stood up: "Mr. Fernandez, with all due respect, I personally have a hard time believing that you have done this. ”

"Oh?" Chen Geng raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Newell, please continue." ”

"We at Novelis are the world's largest recycler of aluminum and the world's leading manufacturer of rolled aluminum products, and while the automotive business is not our primary business at Novelis, we provide aluminum components for more than 40 percent of the total supply of vehicles sold in the United States.

Of course, the market for this piece is not very big, last year, the total value of aluminum and aluminum alloy products provided by Novelis to major passenger car manufacturers in the United States was only 12,000 US dollars, and the total value of various aluminum products and components delivered to AMC was only 3 million US dollars, but in this market segment, we at Novelis are the well-deserved boss," Speaking of this, Newell looked at Chen Geng with a confident face and said: " Mr. Fernandez, I find it hard to believe that you have found a partner for such a thing as aluminum alloy. ”

That's right!

Newell's words lifted the spirits of the major auto parts suppliers present: even if Fernandez calculated carefully, it is impossible to find suppliers for the extremely scarce aluminum alloy parts, right? After all, the total consumption of the whole of last year was only 3 million US dollars......

Facing Newell, who looked confident, Chen Geng smiled, and he turned his head to look at Aniston: "Miss Aniston, find out the contract we signed with Toei Hiroshima Aluminum Industry Co., Ltd., and ask Mr. Newell to take a look." ”

“......”

Aniston didn't take action immediately or answer, but looked at Chen Geng with a look of embarrassment.

This action has raised a glimmer of hope in the hearts of many people: Could it be that there is no such contract? Fernandez will not be able to play, and his cowhide will be punctured soon?

Newell's expression was a little solemn, and he didn't see panic in Aniston's face, but only embarrassment. As the head of Novelis' automotive business, Newell quickly thought of a possibility, could it be......

"It's okay," Chen Geng waved his hand and said to Aniston, "Although the contents of the contract are confidential, as long as Mr. Newell can promise to keep the contents and specific terms of the contract confidential, this is not a problem...... Mr. Newell, you must be better than revealing the contents of the contract to a third person, right?"

"Of course," Newell nodded solemnly, and strode over to Aniston, "I still have this work ethic." ”

Taking the copy from Aniston's hand, Chen Geng said that it was a cooperation agreement signed with Dongying Hiroshima Aluminum Industry Co., Ltd., and after a few simple flips, Newell nodded: "The contract is real." ”

He then returned the cooperation agreement to Aniston and returned to his seat.

There was no change in expression on his face, but after Newell's words, it seemed that there was a storm blowing among the major spare parts suppliers, because it was only at this time that many people realized one thing, a very troublesome thing: if Fernandez even considered the supply of aluminum alloy parts with a very small amount of use, and made targeted arrangements, then his own company ......

A cool breath rushed from the tail vertebrae to the heavenly spirit cover!

Countless people...... At least two-thirds of the people in charge of the scene had changed their faces, and many people immediately picked up the big brother as big as a brick and began to call desperately: the situation has changed dramatically from the previous expectation, and this situation must be fed back to the company, and the company must adjust the cooperation strategy and method with AMC.

Looking at these spare parts suppliers with a stunned face, what Chen Geng thought in his heart was: Hold the grass, so many people call at the same time, is the line enough?

It's definitely not enough, there is no doubt about it, as long as you look at those guys who are already anxious and sweating profusely as if they have a grudge against the big brother in their hands desperately pressing the number keys, you know that the nearby base station simply can't cope with so many phones making calls at the same time.

Finally, someone couldn't bear it anymore, put down the phone in his hand and shouted to Chen Geng: "Mr. Fernandez, what do you want? Since you have signed a cooperation agreement with the Dongying people, why did you still call us over? Is it just to make us happy? Okay, I admit it, you have succeeded, you have succeeded......

Well?!

With this sentence, many guys who desperately dialed the phone but kept busy slowed down the movements in their hands.

No one cares about the words behind the guy who yelled loudly, they care about the guy's words in front of him: yes, since Fernandez has signed a cooperation agreement with Dongying's auto parts company, why did he organize this spare parts supplier conference? Is it just to amuse himself?

Of course not!

Even Ford, Chrysler, and General Motors dare not offend the entire American auto parts companies at the same time!

Since this is not the case, then the purpose of his doing it is ......

Those who reacted slowly were still thinking hard, and those who reacted quickly had already realized with a sudden realization on their faces, and they had already roughly guessed what Chen Geng was planning to do.

Chen Geng smiled, and he gave a thumbs up: "That's right, I signed a cooperation agreement with Dongying people, and I invited everyone to come, of course, not to make everyone happy...... As for why I'm doing this, well, please come with me, and then you'll know why AMC is doing it. Once again, AMC is not here to make you happy, we are really working with you with a sincere heart. ”

Give him away?

Where to?

Although the heads of the spare parts suppliers were confused, they couldn't help but follow the people in front of them.

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

Looking at the cars in front of you...... To be precise, it's actually a wooden model...... All the spare parts suppliers gasped hard: these cars are really beautiful!

The second reaction that followed: Hold the grass! Fernandez is Fernandez, worthy of the top car designer in the United States and the world!

More people are looking at these cars that are sure to cause a sensation in the market, and they already know what Chen Geng and his AMC car are going to do.

"Yes, just as everyone thinks, these models in front of you are the next models that AMC will mass-produce next," Chen Geng nodded affirmatively in the face of a pair of excited or disbelieving eyes: "I believe you have also heard that Mr. Jack Welch, vice chairman of General Electric, will be the chairman of AMC Motors. Mr. Welch's magic and abilities can also imagine the different changes he will bring to AMC after becoming the captain of AMC......

What I want to say to you is that with Mr. Jack Welch's managerial skills, my design, and the tolerance of the American society as a whole for me to reform the AMC...... How long do you think it will take for AMC to restore production capacity to more than 300,000 units per year?"

This question is also echoing in the minds of the heads of various parts suppliers, with the addition of Jack Welch and the support of Fernandez in terms of design, how long will it take for AMC cars to return to production capacity of more than 300,000 units per year?

Two years, that's the limit, and even the most pessimistic people don't think it will take more than two years for AMC to restore production capacity to more than 300,000 units per year with the blessing of Jack Welch and Fernandez Chen.

No one answered, and Chen Geng didn't expect these guys to answer, he asked himself and said: "My guess is pessimistic, I think it will take about a year and a half, but Mr. Jack Welch is much more optimistic than me, he thinks that from the moment he officially becomes the chairman of AMC Motors, a maximum of one year is enough."

So, gentlemen, do you think Dongying people can meet the needs of AMC, and can they meet the needs of AMC, which is about to enter a period of rapid development?"

"Can't!"

The voice of the answer is extraordinarily uniform, even more uniform than the elementary school student answering the teacher's question.

Everyone's eyes flashed with excitement, and they already understood what Fernandez meant: in the face of AMC, a plane that is still on the runway but will soon turn on its jet engines and fly into the blue sky, do you choose to be AMC's friends, or continue to calculate the little calculations in your heart?

When the annual production capacity of AMC cars is less than 40,000 units, these dealers have an attitude, and when they know that the production capacity of AMC cars can reach more than 300,000 units in two years at most, and the annual production capacity may even exceed one million units in the future, they have another attitude towards AMC.

"Mr. Fernandez, I'm from Goodyear Tire, and I think we can seriously discuss the specifics of the cooperation. ”

The representative of Goodyear Tire was the first to smack his mouth.
