Chapter 1017 Say to Chrysler: NO! (One more arrives)
"Should I congratulate you?" Lin Hongfei said with a smile, when he said this, he was sincere.
"Of course, Lin, of course you should congratulate me," Lee. Iacocca was not polite at all, and immediately said, "You should also congratulate yourself, this Chrysler 300C is a car that our joint venture factory will also produce." ”
This is also true if the Chrysler 300C can really be selected as the special car of the US Secretary of State for BMW. Chrysler 300C is a very good publicity stunt, the Chinese people value a face, since even the American secretary of state gave up Mercedes Pullman, and instead chose Chrysler 300C, it means that the Chrysler 300C is definitely better than the Daben.
"So, Lin, I want you to be able to transfer that Jill 41047 in your possession to us," said Lee. Iacocca said sincerely, "Your Excellency the Secretary of State must use a bulletproof car, but unfortunately, our Chrysler Motors do not have much experience in the manufacture of high-end bulletproof cars, if there is a Gil-410417 can learn from, I believe we will be able to build a perfect bulletproof 'Secretary of State' car." ”
"Tsk......" Lin Hongfei smacked his lips: Nima! Is this a night owl going to the house?
The Americans have been manufacturing bulletproof cars used by senior government leaders for decades, whether Ford or General Motors, they have their own unique skills, but this definitely does not include Chrysler, no way, who made Chrysler cars before this, although they claimed to be the three major automobile manufacturers in the United States, but the models they produced actually never entered the "eyes" of the top level of the US government? Although the U.S. military has purchased a lot of Dodge trucks, as military supplies, it really has little to do with high-end civilian products.
The Soviets were so unique in some aspects of the bulletproof cars of their senior leaders that even the famous Daimler could not match them, and Ford and General Motors had long coveted the Soviets' ballistic car manufacturing skills. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ford Motor and General Motors immediately mobilized all the forces they could muster, and tried their best to get a few Gil-115 high-grade bulletproof cars from the Soviet Union, and the sad Chrysler cars, but they didn't expect that they would also have the opportunity to get their hands on high-end government cars, and there was no action at all......
When this fire burns eyebrows, where is the time to get a bulletproof car again? In desperation, the Chrysler executives finally thought of a rumor: it seems that Belarusians once gave Lin Hongfei a Gil-41047 high-end bulletproof sedan?
If you can get this Gil-41047 from Lin Hongfei, and then cooperate with the National Security Agency (every bulletproof car equipped with senior government officials must have the participation of the NSA. Only after passing their audit can it be considered qualified) mastered bulletproof car manufacturing technology, Chrysler is probably not so difficult to complete this task, right?
There is no doubt that Chrysler executives gave this task to Lee. Icoca: Who made your relationship with Lin Hongfei so good?
"Nope! That's impossible! Lin Hongfei refused directly without thinking about it: What are you kidding? That Gil-41047 is their own property, and the Americans dare to mess around?
"Iacoca, we are friends. So I won't hide it from you, but I have in my hand a Gil-41047 high-grade bulletproof sedan presented by the Belarusian government. But this car is a top secret for our company. I'm sorry, but I can't give it away or sell it to you Chrysler cars......"
In order to prevent Lee. If Iacocca had any other thoughts, he simply said it directly, "It doesn't matter who it is, no matter how much money you pay!" ”
Although and Lee. Iacocca had a good personal relationship, but Lin Hongfei never thought Americans were anything good. Saying that they are a group of bastards who rush up when they see the benefits and catch their partners and go to death is not wronged at all, and with the Americans, you have to be careful at all times, and be careful not to be cheated by them.
Plum. Iacocca had already thought that Lin Hongfei might disagree. But he didn't expect Lin Hongfei's attitude to be so resolute, he was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Lin, don't you listen to the conditions of Chrysler Motors?" ”
"What's so nice to hear, isn't it just coercion and temptation that goes over and over?" Speaking of this, Hongfei sighed, "Iacoca, I value the personal friendship between the two of us, and I also have a great impression of you personally, but I really don't have a good impression of Chrysler Motors...... Look at the little you did to your other republic partner: BAIC, people just want to sell their cars to foreign countries, but look at where the people of BAIC go, your followers will follow you step by step, and it is good to follow to help, and you will deliberately make it bad. ”
Plum. Akoka was embarrassed and wanted to say something, but the rest of the words could no longer be spoken.
Chrysler Motors now has two partners in the Republic, one of which is naturally Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., and the other is BAIC Jeep, which automatically became their Chinese partner after the merger of the American Automobile Company (AMC) last year, but unlike Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., which has its own senior designers and a complete technical system, Chrysler Automobile of Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is highly vigilant against its other partner. From the very beginning of the cooperation, the string of guarding against China has been tightened.
At that time, the Cherokee was regarded as a mid-to-high-end model in China, and it was not an item that ordinary people could afford, and the market was very limited. Realizing the problem, BAIC Jeep proposed to put the Cherokee on the overseas market, but the ill-intentioned Americans did not heed this originally constructive proposal, they were afraid of the rapid expansion of BAIC Jeep.
The Americans ignored it, and BAIC Jeep transported the Cherokee to Russia, Myanmar and other countries by itself, and the Americans followed them wherever the Cherokee went, which also made BAIC Jeep's plan to promote the Cherokee to overseas markets met with great resistance.
At the same time, the Chinese side proposed to develop a right-hand drive Cherokee model, but the Americans refused, the Chinese put forward a number of improvement proposals, the Americans were passive and sluggish, and the Chinese side asked to develop a second-generation product, but the Americans still ignored it. This also put BAIC Jeep Motors, which had previously produced in the CKD method, into a passive ......
In their opinion, the BAIC Jeep is like a ball of plasticine held in the palm of their hands, they can rub it as much as they want, knead it as much as they want, knead it as much as they want, knead it into a square if they want to make it flat, and rub it into a flat if they want to make it flat, and the pride of the big American people with their eyes on the top of their heads can be seen at a glance, but at this moment, they only felt that they were slapped by Lin Hongfei heavily.
Fortunately, Lin Hongfei didn't care about himself, after all, Iacoca's personal friendship with himself was still good, and said, "Iacoca, if Mr. Kristof really likes this car, I suggest you go directly to the National Security Agency, for the safety of the Secretary of State, I believe they will provide you with some skills...... No, you can give this car to the NSA to customize. ”
"Chrysler Motors should have its own bulletproof car production technology...... "Li. Iacocca smiled bitterly, "Okay, Lin, I'm sorry for some of the things that have happened, but believe me, this is the market, the market is always cruel, and this is a lesson that those companies in your country must learn if they want to enter the international market......"
"If you want to teach, I'll teach you, and it's not your Chrysler's turn," Lin Hongfei unceremoniously interrupted Li. Iacoca's words, there was no face in the words to Lee. "Iacocca, we are friends, but I am more of a Chinese, so I don't want to hurt our friendship because of something, do you know what I mean?" ”
How can you not understand, this is clearly to warn yourself that you will not be the president of Chrysler Motors soon, and you had better take care of those bullshit things of Chrysler Motors.
Some things are just because he is still the president of Chrysler Motors, and Lin Hongfei has done too much because of his poor face, but he has stepped down from the position of president of Chrysler...... Presumably, the time for Chrysler's bad luck is coming.
"Lin, I'm really curious, how could your country's system cultivate such a monster as you?" Plum. Iacocca smiled bitterly, but in his words, he seemed to have given up the previous idea of asking Lin Hongfei for the Gil-41047...... Lin Hongfei is right, I am the one who is leaving, what do you care about so much?
"This is actually a question that I've always been curious about." Lin Hongfei smiled proudly.

Lei Lin took that mysterious guy and took a piece of paper to Lin Hongfei and read it to Lin Hongfei seriously: "Comrade Lin Hongfei, the state has approved your application for Guqi Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. to set up an overseas branch factory in the United States......
"Wait a minute," Lin Hongfei was stunned, "Director Lei, when did our company apply to the state to establish an overseas branch?" ”
It's just to build a pure production-type branch factory overseas, not to mention whether you have applied for it, is it necessary to apply for a big thing? (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
