Wang Jiao listened to Jin Xiaoqiang's opinions very carefully and recorded them one by one.
"The origin of the second factory must be in the Celestial Empire, especially the important engine unit, which must be within our control, which I believe can be done very simply, firstly, the production cost of our Celestial Empire is cheap, and secondly, I have me to sit in charge, hehe, I believe they will not be too difficult for us at this point, and the core technology of this new car series is provided by us. The third point, and the most critical point, is that if we can negotiate a joint venture this time, our Huayang Power's holding must account for 50% of the new brand, or even more, and we must not let foreign devils get the absolute right to speak, otherwise, we would rather not cooperate with them, you know! This is important. ”
Jin Xiaoqiang specially emphasized to Wang Jiao.
He is really not at ease, give the absolute right to speak of this brand to these foreign devils, if everyone discusses, it is easy to do, let the foreign devils have more helpers in business, it is easy to say, but if this company allows these foreign devils to have the absolute right to speak, it will definitely not have any good results.
A few years later, the tragic outcome of the merger between Lenovo and IBM is still vivid, and then there is the unsuccessful case of Volvo.
Jin Xiaoqiang sees the disadvantages of such a combination of local and foreign enterprises very clearly, that is, these foreign devils must not be allowed to have the absolute right to speak.
After Lenovo acquired IBM's ThinkPad, it invited a foreign devil to carefully build this brand, what was the result? stunned to make this originally high-end international brand into a famous brand of the Celestial Empire, but it turned out to be Apple's iPad, and what happened after Liji acquired Volvo?
What kind of bullshit is that you can't cut the company's leadership and supervise the operation of Volvo? As a result, Volvo continues to receive blood transfusions from the parent company of the Celestial Empire, but it is still burning money and losing money.
So in such a case, Jin Xiaoqiang doesn't want it to happen to his own company.
If GM doesn't give in on this point, then he would rather not cooperate with them, and he would rather not let them do a bad job of this car series that he has carefully built.
To be honest, he really doesn't believe in their strength, he just doesn't believe it!
Now it is General Motors that is anxious about this cooperation plan, not Huayang Power, not to mention that the core technology of the entire new car series is developed by him, and he doesn't want to be cheap for GM in vain.
So there are two ways, if you want to cooperate, you can agree to his conditions, or ask you GM to get out of the way obediently, and as for the progress to enter the US market, it is not up to him GM to have the final say.
I really can't take the general road, is there any other way to go!
It's a big deal that Lao Tzu spends more money to open a factory in the United States and increase employment opportunities for Americans, Jin Xiaoqiang doesn't believe that the American political axe will not agree to an opportunity that may involve tens of thousands of jobs for the sake of generalization!
"Boss, what do you think is more appropriate to control the proportion of equity between the two of us?"
After all, Wang Jiao is just an executor, although Jin Xiaoqiang said just now that he wants to get the absolute right to speak, but he is still not sure how much equity proportion Huayang Power should occupy in this cooperation.
"Hmmm......"
Jin Xiaoqiang began to think about it, in fact, he really didn't think about this problem just now, and now he thinks about it, it is indeed a big problem.
"Well, it's only appropriate to give me 30 to 40 percent of GM's shares."
Jin Xiaoqiang thought about it again and again before saying to Wang Jiao.
"What? This seems to be a bit difficult, right? ”
When Wang Jiao heard this proportion, he immediately felt a little embarrassed, because GM is also the largest automobile manufacturer in the United States, the largest enterprise in the top 10 of the world's top 500 enterprises, the second largest industrial enterprise in the world, and a giant with an annual output of 9 million cars.
Negotiating with such a company, he will inevitably be a little afraid in his heart, and Jin Xiaoqiang's proposal is simply an incredible thing in his opinion.
Unexpectedly, Jin Xiaoqiang glanced at him, and then said to him.
"Afraid of what? You don't want to think about it, our Qoros series, from research and development to completion, but we Huayang Power completed it by ourselves, have they spent a penny? Now that they are talking about cooperation, don't they actually want to pick peaches? What can they offer us? Isn't it just that little bit of broken relationship between them and the American political axe? And their sales network in North America? What else can they come up with? Hum! In the past 20 years, they have been going downhill, and now it is not we who ask them, they who ask us! ”
Jin Xiaoqiang said these words, inevitably with some resentment, just before Wang Jiao came back, that nick. When Reilly negotiated with himself, he still vaguely threatened himself, and now when he thinks about it, Jin Xiaoqiang's heart is a little uncomfortable.
Wang Jiao can also understand what Jin Xiaoqiang said, but when he put forward such conditions with General Motors, he still felt that this negotiation was a little unsustainable.
But before he could come to his senses, Jin Xiaoqiang continued to put forward a very harsh condition.
"And you have to keep in mind that our cooperation with them only provides the following ways of cooperation, they are generally responsible for setting up assembly plants in Europe and the United States, and we are responsible for the headquarters of the Celestial Empire, and then send the parts over for them to assemble. Then the profit division method is to distribute 50% dividends in Europe and the United States, as for the Celestial Empire market, it belongs to us, and the rest of the world is stratified according to June Fourth, of course, we account for 60%, they account for 4 layers, if this scheme is adopted, then try to use the general sales network. ”
Jin Xiaoqiang pondered for a moment and then said, but this proposal made Wang Jiao scream.
"What? Boss, isn't this asking GM to be an assembly plant for us? ”
"That's right, I'm just going to let GM be an assembly factory for us!"
Jin Xiaoqiang glanced at Wang Jiao, obviously he was very dissatisfied with Wang Jiao's attitude, why didn't he start negotiations yet, and he felt that he was a little shorter than GM?
No, I have to correct him!
What's so great about GM? In a few years' time, won't the company finally file for bankruptcy protection from the U.S. political axe? A new shuffle of the company's controlling stake?
Well, but now this year, especially when the U.S. economy is just right in recent years, GM still looks very strong, compared with the production and sales record of 9 million cars per year, his Huayang Power is completely small, no wonder Wang Jiao will be such a big monster!
But what I have to do now is to cheer up Wang Jiao and let him have the courage to negotiate with GM.
"Wang Jiao, you must know that it is we who master the core technology now, we are, you know! If they are not willing to accept our conditions, then we will produce them ourselves, I don't believe it, without him Zhang Butcher, we still have to eat pigs with hair? You have to remember that we are not incapable of reading power production, even if we were to build a branch factory in the United States, we would be able to afford it. If you look at Toyota, Honda, Yuesan and South Korea's Hyundai, they have grown up to this day, haven't they been threatened by GM? But what was the result? Haven't they yet established themselves in the automotive industry today? ”
When Jin Xiaoqiang said this, Wang Jiao's face was indeed a little better-looking.
"And when you go to the United States, what is the first thing you do, you know?"
Jin Xiaoqiang said to Wang Jiao, but Wang Jiao was at a loss at this time, and he didn't know how to answer Jin Xiaoqiang's question at all.
"You have to let the wind out, you can even quietly contact Ford, or Chrysler, or any other car manufacturer, and in any way you want to make GM nervous. Hahaha! ”
After saying this, Jin Xiaoqiang couldn't help but be happy first, and he suddenly remembered the idea of this trick.
Indeed, if Wang Jiao does this, the nervous will definitely be GM, GM is indeed the No.1 in the American auto industry, but Ford, the second in the millennium, is willing to be subordinate to GM all the time?
You must know that since Jin Xiaoqiang announced the development plan of the new car Qoros, I am afraid that all the automobile manufacturing companies in the world are gritting their teeth with hatred for Huayang Power.
But if he announces that he wants to find a partner to buy this new car together, I don't know how many people will immediately jump out and say that they have fallen in love with Huayang Power?
After all, as long as people who are not fools know, this Qoros car of Huayang Power, just by virtue of his excellent powertrain, can be said to be a big gold mine, such a gold mine, the average car company, which is willing to take it out and share it with others?
If Huayang Power is willing to share it with others, then even if he is unwilling to be the foundry of Huayang Power, I am afraid that there are countless other companies that want to give Huayang Power a contemporary factory!
You must know that it is not only General Motors that has a good relationship with the American political axe, but also the influence of Ford and Chrysler on the American political axe is definitely not bad!
When Wang Jiao heard Jin Xiaoqiang say this, he also understood the position they Huayang Power occupied in this negotiation, and he suddenly had confidence in his heart.
"Of course, if GM still doesn't agree, you can tell them, and if they agree to our conditions, then we can consider introducing a car production line with an annual output of 500,000 units from them."
Jin Xiaoqiang explained again.
Wang Jiao listened to Jin Xiaoqiang's suggestion, and suddenly his heart was settled, and his confidence was even more sufficient.
