The main characters always appear at the last moment. Long Jianhua arrived in the United States on November 8.


    At this time, yuwenxing has finished the preliminary work.


    Seeing Yu Wenxing at Detroit Airport, long Jianhua was moved - he lost at least 10 kilograms. He was originally slim and looked thin at this time.


    When they hugged, long Jianhua patted him on the back, "Yusheng, it''s hard."


    Yu Wenxing smiled, "it''s really hard. However, if the reply fails, all the hard work will be in vain. "


    Then he pushed him away. "However, I made a pre reply and felt very hopeful."


    He has been in the United States for nearly a month, and relevant agreements have been signed. He has obtained 88% of the shares of kelesle and intends to hold absolute shares.


    After getting on the bus, he said bitterly, "the trade unions in the United States are terrible. The pension burden of kolesle is too heavy. It''s all ray; The iron and steel plant is easy to run. If not, sell it; And their M-1 tanks. I don''t know how to deal with them. "


    "During the initial exchange, some members focused on M-1. It''s hard to answer. You can only explain your doubts to them in person."


    Long Jianhua nodded, "in fact, this is still according to our predetermined plan. Otherwise, if we export, sell it or raise the price; If they don''t place an order, change that factory into an automobile factory. Can''t hold us. "


    "This deal is bound to succeed. We have paid a deposit of 10%, and the creditor is more urgent than us. The government''s tax is not urgent, banks, pensions and other enterprises will be urgent. "


    "If the American government really thinks that the presidential transition is over, they are wrong."


    Yu Wenxing patted the co pilot''s back gently, "if not, we will build the car factory in the special zone and kill them directly. Although they sell left and right, there are still more than 200000 people engaged in automobile production, which is not a small number. "


    Long Jianhua didn''t say a word.


    We must not be discouraged until we have reached that stage.


    I came here to talk about economic interests. I can''t be angry.


    Generally speaking, the current US government is more urgent than the world.


    Although he hired aikoka as the new president since 1978, he also wanted to do a good job in kolesle, his luck seemed to be bad, first at the end of the economic crisis, and then the oil crisis. The amount of losses is increasing year by year. The losses in 1978, 1979 and 1980 were $250 million, $1 billion and $1.7 billion respectively.


    By the end of 1980, kelesle automobile owed 2 billion in taxes, 1.2 billion in loans, 1.2 billion in pensions and 1 billion in other arrears; This was also the result of alcoka''s response in early 1981, requesting creditors to convert $572 million in debt into equity, thus saving $100 million in interest.


    He also knows that colesle will turn losses into profits in 1983, but it is still a huge loss, isn''t it?


    It is also because of this that no automobile enterprise has taken over and is waiting to close down; And Iacocca doesn''t want to apply for bankruptcy protection for kolesle, which is the biggest blow to the brand.


    It can be said that colesle is now a hot potato in the United States. No matter which political party, it is eager to throw it out


    On the morning of September 9, long Jianhua and Yu Wenxing met with the head of the trade union at the Detroit automobile trade union. The negotiators were seven people, including the chairman of the trade union, Whitford and the vice chairman of the trade union, Donnie Joan.


    In American enterprises, the labor union of kolesle is very powerful, and has a history of just to just - in 1937, the labor union organized a strike for 29 consecutive days, and finally kolesle succumbed.


    Long Jianhua came straight to the point, "Mr. Whitford, Mr. Downey Joan, and everyone, I think Chongshi group wants to intervene in the automotive field through the acquisition of collesco; In order to cooperate friendly in the future, I hope to show our sincerity and reach a friendly cooperation agreement. "


    "As you can see, the current situation of kelesle is very bad. The wages of blue collar workers this year have been frozen, but this is not all. If this trend continues, many workers will lose their jobs. "


    Yuwenxing glanced at him secretly and then turned his head back.


    He sighed in his heart that Long Sheng was different. As soon as he came up, he wanted to control the field and establish his own negotiation potential.


    The union is very clear about the current situation of kolesle; Although this situation has nothing to do with them, they should continue to take what they should take, but in case the content of today''s conversation is leaked, it will still have a great impact on their reputation.


    I don''t know when, American manufacturers slowly moved their factories out of "trade union fortresses" such as Detroit, Philadelphia and Trenton, and finally moved overseas, causing their power to weaken significantly; However, the strength of trade unions is still incomparable.


    Donnie Joan said expressionless, "Mr. long, we are a trade union and must ensure the legitimate rights and interests of workers. The all meter Auto Workers'' Federation is an organization that seeks better wages, benefits and working environment on behalf of workers. If we don''t, the meaning of this organization will be lost. "


    Long Jianhua said faintly, "the interests of workers should be protected, but the interests of investors should not be ignored. For example, in the kelesle company, although workers have a series of rights such as overtime pay and paid holidays, as well as a salary of up to $17 per hour, they can''t get it and may lose their job because of the company''s bankruptcy. Why not do something practical? "


    "If we continue to insist, kelesle company can auction the fixed assets and get the workers'' wages back. What about the future? Where do they go to work? Live on unemployment benefits? "


    "The relationship between workers and enterprises is not opposition, but symbiosis. There is an old saying in the state of China, "if the skin does not exist, how can Mao attach it", which says this relationship. "


    "I hope that Chongshi group will not raise the demand for further salary increase within 8 years after acquiring kelesle; Of course, if the company''s efficiency improves, we will take the initiative to increase workers'' wages. "


    "The wages of our companies in xiangdao and Europe are higher than the local average wages, which are increased on our own initiative."


    Donnie Joan stared and said, "Mr. long, this is America, not incense island or Europe."


    Long Jianhua laughed, stood up and said, "in that case, we don''t need to continue talking."


    With that, he turned and left, making the trade union look at each other.


    As soon as long Jianhua left, yuwenxing and several others stood up. He shrugged, "I''m sorry. Mr. Long''s attitude is so firm when he meets principled problems."


    Whitford spread his hands. "Mr. Yu, let''s talk sometime?"


    Yu Wenxing said faintly, "Mr. long is the chairman and president. He has decided what to do, and there is not much room for negotiation."


    With that, he took the others to the door.


    A member of the entourage whispered, "president Yu, President long, is this a good move? What if the unions are tough? "


    Yuwen xingtou didn''t answer, "the pressure is on their side."
