Honda also investigated this Lin Qiangsheng, and learned some of the experiences of this young man, Honda Soichiro and Honda Tojiro, Honda Hirotoshi, the father and son are also very familiar with Lin Qiangsheng, they want to meet with him in person to discuss, but there is never a chance, Lin Qiangsheng has always refused to negotiate.

"Mr. Lin, if you have any conditions, I will inform my father, and Honda Motor will try its best to meet your requirements!" Honda Tojiro looked at Lin Qiangsheng with blank eyes and begged.

Lin Qiangsheng didn't know what to think, stopped for a moment and said slowly to Honda Tojiro: "I want to visit Honda's U.S. factory, can you be a guide for me?" ”

Honda Tojiro was overjoyed, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed continuously, saying that he could arrange it as soon as possible.

Lin Qiangsheng revealed that he wanted to contact Honda, which proved that the two sides could negotiate, as long as they could talk, Honda Motor was willing to try to meet each other's requirements!

Honda Tojiro took Lin Qiangsheng's business card with both hands, and then respectfully gave his business card, very politely watched him leave, he turned around and ran to the booth, he wanted to send the news back to Japan as soon as possible.

"What, brother, are you saying that the person who usurped our Honda logo agreed to make contact?" Hirotoshi Honda was woken up by a phone call, and he didn't expect a shocking message from his brother who was far away in the United States.

Honda Tojiro nodded heavily and said, "Bojun, you quickly tell your father that Mr. Lin Qiangsheng wants to visit the Marysville factory, and I have promised him!" ”

Hirotoshi Honda asked in surprise, "What does he want?" ”

"He said that if I wanted to understand our management methods and employment methods, I learned that his factory in Georgia has always had management problems and racial conflicts, and I think he is looking for a solution!" Tojiro Honda said.

Hiroshi Honda shook his head and said: "It's definitely not so simple, we have been fighting a lawsuit with him for four years, and this person is not like an ordinary Chinese." It's very tough and tough! ”

Tojiro Honda nodded and said, "Yes, but this time there is a chance to contact him directly, we must seize this opportunity, and the performance of the other party, I think we have hope to win back the trademark!" ”

Hirotoshi Honda also had expectations, and he knew that the price must be great. But since the other party is willing to contact, it proves that it can be negotiated, which is better than not even contacting before!

He nodded and said, "I'll go and inform my father immediately, brother, please wait a moment!" ”

"Yes, I'm right next to the phone!" After Honda Tojiro finished speaking, he gently put down the microphone, and he sat on the chair and recalled the details and conversations when he was in contact with Lin Qiangsheng just now, so as to facilitate his father's inquiry.

It didn't take long for the phone to ring, and he quickly picked up the microphone, and it was his father, Soichiro Honda.

Soichiro Honda had already heard the phone. The 79-year-old man had a very bad sleep and woke up at the slightest movement.

Hirotoshi Honda briefly repeated it outside the door, Soichiro Honda comforted his old wife, he put on his clothes and came to the living room, picked up the phone and said, "Tojiro, did you see that person?" ”

Tojiro Honda immediately stood up, held the microphone in both hands and said, "Yes father, I saw that person in person." Lin Qiangsheng! ”

"Did he say anything?" Soichiro Honda helped his glasses and asked quickly

"Mr. Thierry. The Cherokee test report is out! At the headquarters of American Automobile Company, Foley walked into the temporary office of Vice President Thierry, the representative of Renault, with a stack of reports.

"What's written on it?" Thierry stood up, took the report and stood by the window looking through it.

Representative Foley was in charge of the technical department, and Thierry's arrival immediately ordered the Cherokee to be re-inspected in all aspects to find out the cause of the defect.

The results came out quickly. Due to the high center of gravity and the large mass of the Cherokee, the tires in the advanced corners could not grasp the ground well when the car changed lanes violently, and lost its sense of balance.

Seeing this, Thierry was a little relieved, and AMC went further in the exploration of the civilian use of off-road vehicles. As an explorer, I naturally took a lot of risks, as long as it is not a fatal design flaw that is completely acceptable, fortunately, the problem is not very big, and the next thing is to continue to improve this model in a targeted manner, but that is no longer Renault's business, the directors of the group have decided to sell AMC as soon as possible!

Thierry put down the report and said to Foley: "Immediately let Dedwa read this document on their behalf, and then hold a press conference to convey the news that AMC will make improvements to the Cherokee, formulate a detailed improvement plan, and send a signal to the media that everything is in place to minimize the company's losses!" ”

"I've passed them the papers, so I'm going to make a plan," says Representative Foley. ”

"The more detailed, the better, you know, to be more professional, and have a press conference as soon as possible. Also, send a message to Saturn Motors to restore their confidence in AMC! Thierry continues, and Representative Foley nods and goes out.

After that, AMC immediately took action, three days after the New York Auto Show was held to the outside world to release the factory's investigation report, Foley personally chaired, released a good news to the media, AMC really formulated a detailed improvement plan, and then promised to buy Cherokee consumers free maintenance, and promised to some Cherokee owners with serious quality problems to compensate a certain amount of money.

AMC's attitude was very sincere, and the emotions of the car owners gradually calmed down, and the incident developed in a good direction.

By the time Saturn's negotiating team reopened negotiations with AMC, Mr. Lin was on a plane to Marysville, Ohio. He was still sitting on the Gulf Stream in Lyon, and the French couldn't afford to support this foodie, so they simply started a rental business.

Ohio accounts for two-thirds of the state's arable land and belongs to the U.S. Corn Belt, where agriculture and animal husbandry are very developed. At the same time, the state's industrial product manufacturing is among the best in the United States, and manufacturing is the lifeblood of the state's economy, with a large number of employees, among which machinery, automobiles and aircraft are the most important. The production of rubber products, porcelain, electrical appliances, water pumps, pipes and steam excavators all ranks first in the United States, and almost all industrial products are in the forefront of the United States, and the state's economy is very developed.

It is a beautiful place, with the impact plains of Lake Erie, Cleveland, Toledo, and Cincinnati as industrial centers.

The private jet flew towards the southern town of Marysville in Cleveland, the beautiful Lake Erie connects several American industrial cities, Detroit is in the northwest corner of Lake Erie, and Cleveland is on the south shore, the Great Lakes is an important industrial corridor in the United States, concentrated in many industrial center cities, water and land transportation is developed, Honda chose the factory here is really good.

The plane landed on a major highway near the Honda factory, and the Japanese had long been prepared for the arrival of Lin Qiangsheng.

"Hello Mr. Soichiro Honda, I didn't expect you to come in person!" Seeing Soichiro Honda greet him in person, Lin Qiangsheng hurriedly walked a few steps, bowed slightly to the old man and said.

Soichiro Honda looked at Lin Qiangsheng's size, he didn't expect to be really face-to-face, this young man was so tall, he smiled slightly and bowed and said, "Welcome, Mr. Lin!" ”

Soichiro Honda smiled slightly and was very sincere, his eldest son and second son also bowed together, and Honda's subordinates also bowed.

Lin Qiangsheng sighed, the Japanese are really polite and good-looking, and they are all very sincere, which can really move people!

Although the two parties were in a lawsuit before, Honda Motor Company's understanding of this unclear opponent has always been very vague, and they are also confused about Lin Qiangsheng's style.

Soichiro Honda personally flew over, and he felt that since Lin Qiangsheng had the idea of contact this time, it showed that there was still hope for the transfer of the trademark. The old man thought that as long as the two sides talked openly and honestly, even if it still didn't work out in the end, there would be no regrets.

Lin Qiangsheng had to return another big gift, and then immediately said: "Mr. Honda, I would like to visit your American factory and ask you some questions, I wonder if I can give advice?" ”

Soichiro Honda directly stretched out his hand and sincerely invited: "Please, Lin Sang, Honda Motor Co., Ltd. welcomes your visit, if you have any questions, you can say as much as you want, please don't dare to ask, I will try my best to solve your doubts." ”

Lin Qiangsheng looked at the huge factory not far away, obviously the old man came over, he simply nodded, followed the old man, surrounded by many Japanese managers, and walked into the Marysville Honda factory together. (To be continued.) )
