Pierre Samorena was on his way to the Chicago airport when he received a call from his old friend Claire. Claire kept Pierre on the phone, and then Lin Qiangsheng called in person, promising to appoint him as the chairman of AMC, and also enjoy the corresponding equity dividends.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to announce to you the new Chairman of AMC, Pierre Samorina! In the future, he will lead AMC, I hope everyone will unite and cooperate to make Saturn-AMC Automobile Company go to glory, everyone applauds and welcomes! ”

Lin Qiangsheng announced the news at the Chicago headquarters, and next to him was Pierre, a middle-aged man in his forties, who was very young at the head of an automobile company, and Claire Gan, who was his deputy, and he also stood aside and applauded warmly.

In the large office area, employees and supervisors at all levels first looked at each other, and then someone applauded, Lin Qiangsheng raised Pierre's hand, and the applause became more enthusiastic.

Lin Qiangsheng nodded, satisfied with the reaction of the employees, and now that Saturn Motor Company and himself are the majority shareholders of AMC, they control the company, so there is no problem in appointing Pierre as the chairman of the company.

"Pierre, what are your plans, how can you make AMC improve the current state of decay in a short period of time?" Entering the office, Lin Qiangsheng immediately asked.

To be honest, he had just arrived in Chicago and didn't know much about the Frenchman, and it was only through Claire's positive recommendation that he decided to use him, and as for whether he could lead AMC, a giant with deep feet in the mud, to stand up again, Lin Qiangsheng was not sure.

Pierre knew that his boss had no confidence in him, and that two or three hours ago he was on his way to the Chicago airport, and now that he had become the chairman of the company, a change that he hadn't even had time to put his travel bag home.

But. Pierre was also prepared, and the AMC renovation plan was no longer planned in his mind, and he didn't know how many times he had planned and how long he had conceived it, but in fact, he had already formed a complete idea.

He took out a copy from his briefcase, stroked it lightly in his hand, and then solemnly handed it to Lin Qiangsheng.

Lin Qiangsheng looked at Claire next to him, then turned to Pierre and said with a smile: "It seems that our Mr. Samorina has already had a mature set of ideas. Well, let's get started now! ”

Pierre didn't talk nonsense, and dragged a small blackboard from the side, on which he sketched the entire structural framework of the entire AMC with a few strokes.

He said: "In order for AMC to re-emerge, I think it is a good way to continue Mr. Dadwade's decision-making, maintain the strategy of streamlining the organization, and continue to deepen it!" ”

Pierre looked at Lin Qiangsheng and said in an accentuated tone: "At the same time, I think the company should also work hard. It is time to make up our minds to eliminate some of the industries and departments that have held back the company, and the AMC is so embarrassed that it can no longer turn a blind eye to some things, and can no longer allow some rotten things to remain in the system! ”

Claire looked excitedly at Pierre, the new chairman was young and energetic, in fact, in his 40s, but he knew what AMC lacked the most right now, and that was the courage to make up his mind. And this is exactly what Claire herself lacks, and he does not have the decisiveness of Pierre in decision-making.

Of course. The new president is a Frenchman, and he can do things better than he can, which Claire can't do.

Lin Qiangsheng nodded slowly, he opened Pierre's plan, the first one is layoffs? Downsizing!

He confirmed the word again, and saw the number of 8,000 thousand in the back. Lin Qiangsheng took a deep breath and continued to look at the documents while listening to Pierre's plan.

"First, let's shed some light on some of my thoughts on AMC!" Pierre looked at Lin Qiangsheng and said.

Lin Qiangsheng nodded lightly and made a gesture of please. "I have half an hour, please speak, Mr. Samorina!" ”

Pierre nodded and said, "Half an hour is enough, Mr. Lin!" ”

"After Renault took over AMC, it began to invest heavily in the construction of the North American production base, so the American automobile company has the most advanced factory in North America that Renault took four years to complete, and it is now yours, Mr. Lin!

At the same time, Renault has improved AMC's distribution network in recent years, making it more efficient and professional!

After being acquired by you, this will become a superior resource for Saturn AMC! ”

Lin Qiangsheng smiled, the two points mentioned by Pierre also made him the happiest, Renault has really done a lot of good things for AMC!

Pierre continued: "Unfortunately, Renault didn't finish the new plant in Wisconsin, which needs your continued investment!"

The company should deepen these superior resources, deepen the reform, can not stop, and continue to invest money and energy in the production line and distribution network, now is the initial period of cooperation between the two companies, in order to prevent some unnecessary losses in the chaotic period, we should pay attention to these two parts now, AMC can no longer bear the loss! ”

Lin Qiangsheng glanced at Claire, who nodded immediately, and Pierre reminded the two of them to feel the seriousness of this problem, and Claire, who had just taken over as president, did not realize that these two pieces needed to be protected by the company immediately.

Pierre pointed to the structure of the AMC on the blackboard and said, "It's time for us to make some decisions and close some old factories, like the Kenosa plant in Wisconsin!"

It is one of the oldest car factories in the United States, and it has been more than 50 years old, and there is no need to continue at all, and now the first thing AMC should do is close the Kenosha plant and lay off all the workers in it! ”

Lin Qiangsheng grinded his teeth, layoffs in the United States are not so simple, American workers are not so easy to deal with!

Layoffs mean lawsuits, especially layoffs, and auto unions are likely to get involved, which means endless hard negotiations and heated bickering!

Claire next to her also looked at Lin Qiangsheng nervously, he also thought of this, when Dadwadai was in the company before, he didn't dare to touch the Kenosha factory, so he could only drag it out helplessly. And now that there is a new boss, and the decisive Pierre in front of him, but he recommended it, I really don't know what kind of hornet's nest will be pierced when the news of the closure of this old factory is exposed!

"Also, because the workers' expectations of wage increases are too high, some people have banded together to wreak havoc in the factory, causing serious quality problems for the products! These people must be expelled, and if they disobey us, we will accuse them! Pierre said fiercely.

"Second, AMC needs to focus on the development of the automotive industry and cut out some departments that are unnecessary for the company, such as the Wheelhorse lawn mower brand.

I've researched that not only is it expensive to keep this department running, but it also doesn't bring much profit to the company, so it's better to sell it and save money! ”

"Well, I agree!" Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said.

AMC has many other small businesses, and this lawn mower company called Carousel is one of them, and it's a bit surprising that such a huge car manufacturer is still running such a thing.

However, lawn mowers are very popular in Europe and the United States, and the demand in China in the future is also very large, but due to the disadvantages of large companies, the operating costs of such small companies have been high, and they have become ATMs for some people to fatten themselves, fight corruption and streamline finances, which is the reason why these departments must be cut!
