854. Danger (5/5)

The helicopter landed on the tarmac of the Holden Motors Company, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, after all, Holden Motors was the car brand that had ruled Oceania for half a century, and it was easy to understand that they had a tarmac in their company.

Kaplan shook hands with Wang Bo and praised: "Hello Mr. Wang, I am really happy to meet you, I have heard many friends mention that you are the youngest and most promising young person in the Green Party." ”

"Also, I'm very interested in Sunset Town, but unfortunately I'm busy with official business and haven't had time to visit, but I will definitely take my family to Sunset Town for a vacation next year when I have some free time, and it has become a vacation paradise."

Wang Bo smiled: "Thank you very much for your recognition of Sunset Town, I think it is really good to spend a vacation with us, and I welcome Mr. General Manager to Sunset Town." ”

After some greetings between the two sides, Kaplan took the lead in turning to the topic and asked: "I heard Chairman Alexander say that you are going to purchase a batch of high-end tourist buses, right?" ”

Several people behind Wang Bo turned strange, and Kidd whispered to Hani: "No wonder this guy is so enthusiastic, it turns out that he thinks we are here to send money." ”

Hani said quietly: "Don't speak, let the leader deal with it." ”

How does Wang Bo cope? This expectation gap is a bit big, how did Vachana convey it to him? What he clearly said was that Sunset Town needs a batch of high-end tourist buses, which needs to be the same as procurement?!

So he snorted and said, "Oh, we really need a bunch of these cars in our town right now, you know, New Zealand's bus system is terrible, and we want to build a bus network ourselves." ”

Kaplan nodded in agreement: "Yes, New Zealand should build a more effective bus system, we have all seen it, there were demonstrations all over the country the other day against bus price increases. ”

Wang Bo didn't see the news, but he was very happy, it turned out that Sunset Town was not the only one who encountered this problem.

Kaplan continued: "We've made the transition to agricultural vehicles, buses, and I'm willing to bet there's no car in New Zealand that is better than we are, so why don't we go and see the production line?" ”

It's not that they boast that Horton can have that confidence, especially when it comes to buses.

From 80 years ago to the present, Horton has always been best at building car bodies and decorations, and buses do not have high requirements for engines and gearboxes, and have the highest requirements for the comfort of the body, so it is the right choice for them to change the direction of development.

Then, led by the chief engineers and designers of Kaplan and Holden Motors, they got on the electric tour bus and drove to the dragon-like factory.

It can also be seen how bad the situation of Holden Motors is, and the business of a town can make them pay attention to it like this - if it is for the sake of Vachona, Kaplan can bring his subordinates to receive Wang Bo and his party, instead of bringing the designers of the New Zealand company.

Wang Bo gave them a vaccination on the road: "The excellence of Horton cars is self-evident, I think the reason why you can't win the big market is mainly due to publicity, you lack good advertising." ”

Kaplan showed a very agreeing expression and said, "Yes, Mayor Wang, as soon as I heard this, I knew that you were an expert in industry. ”

"Yes, we just lack exposure, which is why our market share has been declining again and again. But our Horton Automobile is such a concept, based on strength, speaking with quality! ”

Wang Bo was dumbfounded when he heard this, isn't this stepping on a horse? Do you have the face to say that you are based on strength? Dare to say that you speak with quality?

Of course, he knew that Kaplan was also despising him in his heart now, and the problem of Holden's car was certainly not a simple publicity problem, and they invested a lot in car publicity every year.

Entering the factory, the busy production line is revealed.

After all, this is the top car production line in the developed world - perhaps it can be said that it was once the top car brand, the production line is highly mechanized, and the factory is spotless and extremely beautiful.

Wang Bo kept nodding his head, and when he entered the second workshop, two middle-aged people suddenly ran out.

One of them took off his clothes and exposed his chest: we have to eat, and the weekly salary cannot be lowered.

Another middle-aged man shouted, "Mr. General Manager, please pay our unemployment benefits!" We've played for Horton for the rest of our lives, and you can't do that to us! ”

Wang Bo knew what the two were talking about, Zhou Xinbiao's matter was because even though he tried his best, Horton's losses did not stop, and the media had already exposed that now Horton is not making money at all in producing cars, and every car produced has lost money.

In this dilemma, Holden wanted to open labor talks, hoping to reduce the employee's salary by $280 a week.

In other words, the employees of the Holden company now work for a month, and their income is less than 1,200 New Zealand dollars. Of course, the premise for these employees to receive this income is that they work less than 40 hours per week.

But this income is too low, employees come to work, they come to work to make money, so that everyone is idle and then can't make money, so what's the difference with unemployment? How could an employee be willing!

This is embarrassing, Kaplan did not bring security guards with him this time, but technicians, ready to answer the technical questions raised by Wang Bo and his party.

So when there is a violent crisis, he can't solve it right away.

Next, Wang Bo saw a scene that made him stunned, and the general manager of Tangtang Automobile Company actually ran to persuade the two of them:

"You go back to work first, the company is in the process of transformation, in the throes of the period, it will be fine in the future, and when we successfully transform and occupy the market, the dismissed employees will be re-recruited!"

"The weekly salary standard is set by the headquarters, this is an unreasonable standard, I will protest, you can rest assured, this standard will never be implemented in the company! As long as I'm on the day, it's ......."

"What if you're gone?" An employee then asked.

Kaplan said categorically: "That's impossible, there will be no problems with my position, you can rest assured......"

"We're not talking about your position, we're talking about your people," the man interrupted him again, "what if you die in office?" ”

Wang Bo was a little sympathetic to Kaplan, and he was reflecting, is it a bit too inhuman for him to want to sponsor at this time?

After reflection, he felt that this was no problem, it was not inhuman, in business, which capitalist did not have bloody hands?

It's just that he's a little worried, and with Horton's current situation, he doesn't expect to get sponsorship.

The two of them obviously came to find fault, and Kaplan wisely chose to avoid their entanglement, and motioned to the chief designer to take Wang Bo and his party away.

He couldn't walk away by himself, and the two stopped him, so Wang Bo couldn't stand it, so he went up and pushed the two away and took Kaplan away. (To be continued.) )
